I'm in last place again this year . Its getting old .
-
The first warm snap of three or four days of spring-like weather, crankbaits and jigs are my go to lures in northern Missouri .I really cant tell you the temp. I dont use flat ones , I use a wide wobbling Arbogast Mudbug fished agonizingly slow .Wiggle Warts are popular , I just always used the Mudbug ..

Failure is a big teacher . One of the reasons I prefer to fish by myself is failure doesnt deter me . I keep on plugging away . Fishing for several hours with little to no results then finishing with a flurry is very satisfying .

My tie breaker weight went from 90 to 51 lbs .

Saturday and Sunday the wind is suppose to subside
-
Its been cancelled .

Yeah , its called a grub . I have texas rigged them and swam them through shallow cover with excellent success especially for river smallies .

Bassmaster cancelled there event today .

When I speak of time on the water I'm talking going fishing and making a day out of it . Fish deep ,shallow , cold , warm... Thats how I learned where bass lurk and what lures will allow me fish to it effectively . Sure I watched all the old TV shows of Virgil Ward , Harold Ensly and others .Read Fishing Facts , In Fisherman , BASSMASTER cover to cover but theres no substitute for putting in the time and effort .Plus I was always an angler. I started as soon as I was able to hold a pole .

They are planning on fishing Monday with a shortened day , 2:00 I believe.

In dont use them year round . Spring mainly . Post spawn on points and cover leading to deep summer habitat is idea .
-
I've caught many smallmouth with a worm threaded on a hook while catfishing in a river . That is smallmouth habitat .
-
Putting time on the water and doing my own thing . I dont jump on the latest band wagon unless I see a need for it .
-
I've been sick , so planned on staying in today and watch Bass Live .
-
Day one has been cancelled due to winds .
-
I have caught bass in a pond on cut shad . I imagine most of the time cut bait is used in areas not suitable for bass .
-
The Bagley Bang O Lure Spintail is still available .
-
No longer available but the Bomber Prop A is by far my most successful prop bait . When they were discontinued and in the clearance bins I bought a lifetime supply . The largest six fish limit I ever caught was on one . Its a post spawn big fish slayer . Its simply a Long A Minnow with a prop on the tail .

Trait Zaldain fishes the Bass Opens .

When I'm pitching and want a slower fall I like an 8 inch jelly worm with a 1/8th or 3/16th ounce weight. Gives enough weight to pitch and a slow descent .

What model ?

plastic

I'm guessing I would accurately get about 20 foot with that setup .
