Yeah, with this group never get complacent, shifts in the numbers can happen at any moment. Especially, now that we are in the 3rd quarter.

For me it's April. Fishing is just crazy. If the water levels are right in the glades its 100 fish day for sure. A better question would be what months are your favorite for LMB? Then it would be for me March-June.

The good news is we still have time to fish and help our numbers, because I sure need it. I am glad you guys up in Jax are doing well. Notice the top five are all from Jax. That tells you something. My region is not primed and ready yet. But don't worry it will be.

1. Deepdishpanda has 97inches 2. Tightlines Jax has 91 inches 3.Dsidle has 84 inches 4. MCS has 83.5 inches 5. CapitolIP has 79 inches

Hey, what happen to my phone call?? LOL. Great pics and vacation. Now you can go back to work and fish some more. Awesome!!

There are differences between using a buzzing frog like the horny toads and ribbits vs a hollowbody frog. I find more versatility in the hollow body frog vs a soft plastic frog imho, however, in certain situations the soft plastic frog does illicit some real aggressive strikes.

That's why I love bass fishing. We all have our confidence baits

Seriously?? I will gladly take them off your hands, and then gladly let you borrow them when you come down in the spring. LOL...

Lgmouth, did you really use a real live frog to bass fish? When ever I see a live frog in the water, which is rare, the haul a** out of the water. They know what will happen to them if they stay in the water long enough. LOL.

Wait... Wait... let me give you my address, hold on.... LOL. When you come down to fish the glades with me in the Spring. You are going to regret, this last post.

Wow! I am proud of you guys. An informative Abu vs Shimano thread. Who knew. LOL

I agree with MarkHO24, you will not bust a H rod with 50lb. I have that set up myself. I have 7ft 4" Rage H on 50lb braid and the combo works well for me. I find that some people set the hook in an exaggerated way. Do not get me wrong, when frogging a strong "hookset" is advisable but not a hookset that makes your boat flip over. I also agree that most rods outside of a silly accident like a car door, are broken by human error.

No, put the mouse on the shelf for now. Especially if its taking on water. Trust me you will not be disappointed with the Booyah frog. I would say Koppers also but they are $11 vs 7$.

A nice budget frog in my opinion, is Booyah pond crasher. It comes in a variety of colors and you can walk it easily. I use Booyah and Live Target frogs.

MCS if your fishing area looks anything like the pics Dsidle shared yesterday. Then a frog on braid will definitely be something you must consider. Even zoom horny toads will do well too.

Hi Rhody. Being in Orlando puts you in an area of the state known for good bass fishing. I myself am from S.Florida, however the advice I can give you that has helped me a lot is Google Earth. Use the ruler feature and make 5 mile radius for yourself of areas that might suit your situation. It will surprise you what you will find. I myself go on scouting trips and get familiar with an area before I get a line wet. You may get lucky and find someone here that might steer in you to some spots, but sometimes I find, that I have to take the initiative to find my own places. But, that's just me. Good Luck. See you around.

These posts are really going the wrong direction real quick. With the changing of people's names and innuendo's flying around, this sounds to me like a runaway train. LOL. Soon a new vid is going to get posted. I can't begin to imagine how this one is going to be with Martin behind the wheel.

Wait for it......

You guys are hilarious!! It was only a matter a time.

MCS you are holding at 83.5". Unfortunately, you dropped to 3rd place and CaptiolIP is closing in behind you at 79".

Wow!! Tightlines made a big power move. You jumped to 2nd place. Nice job. You are 6 inches behind AK. I love it. Competition from the same zip code.

I know, AK, but its still funny.

I have respect for Maine. Those fish are unbelievable!!

Sorry to tell you but I am not calling you deepdishpanda. You will always be AK.

That's why you keep dropping the real big ones.
