Fishing-Vol

I am starting to think about how I will set up my rods when I come to Kissimmee the first week in March. I have: Cashion 7'11" HVY fast micro Duckett 7'10" XHVY fast micro Miles 7'8" med fast Miles 7'3" MH+ fast Abu Veritos 7'3" MH fast Old BP Crankin rod I use for Swim baits here at home. Other rods that are not really in question as to what to use for. I'm thinking: Cashion - flippin T-rig Duckett - flippin jig one of the Miles for frogs Abu Veritos - tubes I would like to here what you think and what line to use on each too. Thanks.

I don't know about restock, but I just ordered 700 soft plastics for my upcoming trip to the Kissimee area.

Thank you, FD. I really do appreciate the information.

I just bought a 7'10" Xtra-heavy and put a revo premeir on it. Can't wait to try it out.

I sure will. I really appreciate the help. I know that the TX will be in full swing by then, and getting info off the general forum will be harder to get. But I'm just coming down for a week of pleasure and know little about FL. waters. So I am not sure if I need to get some different colors of baits and larger baits. Thank you for any advice and help.

Hello, to all the Kissimee Chain fishermen. I am new to the board and I am coming down the first week of March to do some bass fishing. I sure hope that you all will keep posting, so that I can get a feel for what the fish are doing, as time draws near. I am excited and March can't get here quick enough. Thanks.

I'm confused.....I fish the double fluke, here in TN, often. But I am coming to FL in March. So can I fish the double fluke or not? lol.

The first week in March, I'll be fishing Central Florida. We are staying just outside of Disney. Could be the best family vacation ever. lol.

# 1. If it is legal, #2 I don't think it is needed for a 20 min ride this time of year, # 3. But if you want a good recipe for keeping fish alive for this or anytime, here is my good friends formula, that has been proven over and over to keep bass alive and well. #1 Ingredient ICE!!! (don't buy it, make it.) Make Blocks of Ice in your freezer I went to Dollar store and bought two sets of plastic mixing bowls. Fill them with water and freeze them. All you do before you leave the house is run tap water over the bowl bottom and the block of ice slips right out. Put them in the livewell before you leave the house.blocks,I make 6 blocks, 3 for each well 3. Along with the ice when you get to the lake you add. (now I know I am going to hear the frozen bottle deal alot of folks will say they use. There is two downsides to putting frozen bottles in wells. (1)They take up a lot of space. (2) once the water in the tank reaches a certain temp it equalizes with the water that has formed in the bottle and the water in the bottle even though has ice in it quits producing cool water and your livewells warm up Catch & Release or Rejuvinate, I prefer C&R add 2-3 oz of Hydrogen-Peroxide to promote healing and oxygen in live wells add about two table spoons of Sea salt or Rock salt. Fill both live wells 3/4 full soon as you launch the boat to melt what ice is still in wells. The first run will mix all the chemicals. At the end of your day your live well water should still be about 76-78 Degrees. Then go catch fish. Once you add the first fish you turn on Pro Air and recirculate timers and DO NOT under any conditions add anymore lake water all day. Your fish will be fresh and lively and full of excitement when your trying to get them out of the wells to weigh in. Good luck.

I only use custom made, so I take them home and use a lighter to melt them back together. That way I can catch another fish or two before they finally go into the trash. And many baits can be cut shorter and therefore be re-used too. Got to get all the life you can out of a really soft bait.

Personally, I would still buy a quality used combo that are listed on many fishing forums. Your friend would appreciate it more than a cheap combo, down the road. And you may be able to get your friend two combos for that price.

Do you know who your boater is going to be ( or his/her style of fishing )? It may be just alittle early but if you draw a jig fisherman, that you'll probably be running up river. I may be remembering wrong, but I think the chick has put out some great bags the last two years in March. Good luck.

Hello, to everyone. The site looks like a good one. I have watched a few of the vidio's and read some of the forums, so I thought I would sign up and introduce myself. I live in east Tennessee and fish Watts Bar lake and Chickamaga (sp) lake. I am, by nature, a grinder. T-rig, C-rig, or jig fishing are what I fish the most. But this year I have come to appreciate the the lipless crank for not only finding fish, but catching fish that I would not have caught using my prefered methods. I enjoy meeting new anglers and fishing with new people, have a wonderful Thanksgiving and good fishin.
