Fishing during thunderstorms
You can definitely catch fish during the rain . If its a light drizzle I will give a buzzbait a good go at it .

How deep will bass go?
The deepest I have caught them was 40 foot in autumn .

Pitching with hook that has a screw on pin?
I do this too or use the parasite clips . It works well .

FLW Fantasy Fishing
They said yesterday they were bumping boats . Lambert was willing to share Haynes not . They said he was already off the lake and driving home . Tough luck for you, huh ?

Tubes and LMB
I havent fished them a lot but the few times I did they worked well . One time I forgot my soft plastic bag so a search through my gear i found a new bag of black Gizits . I Texas rigged them and caught plenty of largemouths .

What seems to never work for you...
Huge lures . I have tried Striper sized cranks , musky jitterbugs , large spoons not 1 fish on them .

You could try Parasite Worm Clips . I'll vouch for them. Google it .

Weirdest pattern you’ve ever been on?
Oh , I thought you meant he took { launched his boat} off from a different area than the rest of the field . My comprehension skills failed me .

Huh ? How is that not against the rules ?

Using Your Thumb (finger)
My old Ambassaduers bait-casters, I use to keep them as loose as possible with the small breaks . I cant do that with modern reels .

A few questions about buzzbaits
I just cast them out and reel them in . They are very snag resistant and able to jump logs . They are my favorite lure to throw . Dont limit them to early , late , cloudy... They work in the heat of the summer too .

Weirdest pattern you’ve ever been on?
Its crazy the patterns that happen in flooded water . I have got on a boat ramp and guard rail pattern a couple of times .

I'm going to be participating in my first tournament in a couple weeks - any tips?
When I was a boater fishing with a non boater , they were allowed to cast where-ever they wanted . They were fun tourneys , nothing serious , there were no imaginary lines... .We usually took turns getting first cast at good targets . Twice handicapped guys won the tournament from the back of my boat . Both times it was their first tourney. One guy lost his hand at work and had pliers for a hand . We were coming upon a stump where I caught a couple of big bass before and allowed him the first cast . He nailed the cast using a Bagley crankbait . As his lure approached the stump he said I'm snagged . I could see he had a big bass and told him to take it easy . He fought it like a pro and landed a 6 lber . With the addition of a couple of dinks he took home the trophy . The other guy , who could not move his neck , brought one spincast rod n reel that would not cast over five yards . Right off the bat I caught a keeper pitching a jig n pig then gave him one . He sat there in the back of the boat jigged it up and down and caught three keepers for the win .

First tournament, swing and a miss
I like the tourneys where I stunk but come to find out the winning team was doing the same thing I was .?

Your favorite/most reliable baits for pressured lakes.
crappie lures

What Texas rig bait to use?
I dont think it makes a difference most of the time . For smallmouths I like crawfish , hula grubs , creatures baits , things that resemble crawfish .For largemouths , whatever floats my boat .
-
Would you be annoyed or am I a jerk?
Thats like fishing with my uncle . i just let him do his thing and hes happy , even though he doesnt have much success .
-
Do we hurt our success?
Usually there is more than one way to fish the area I'm targeting .For example a 200 yard long cove with the major cover lay-downs . If I fish it all and dont get bit on a Texas rig , jig , spinnerbait or top-water then its time rethink my strategy.

Can’t seem to cast shad rap #5
If your wanting to use a nice casting , light weight balsa crankbait with a tight action look at the Rapala Fat Rap .

Do You Eat Your Bass?
It depends on the lake . I like to eat bass but selectively harvest them .
