Who has the best Buzz bait???
These are most of my buzzers . I have more scattered around . No reason to have this many when I find a good one then use it until its wore out .

The "things wives say" thread.
My wife doesnt fish but I could write a chapter on her wifeism's and she could do the same with me . My favorite, as we were traveling out west Me "I wonder if porcupines are nocturnal?" Her "No , they are land animals ."

Is there a normal in between seasons dead time?
When fishing from banks I target the rip rap banks , the dam area and any cover that is accessible . Spring , summer and fall .

Fantasy Fishing
So Ish is pulling out ? If thats the case I will know to never pick him . I'll add him to the list with Clunn . Id be upset if I was in the the running for a prize and miss it by a point because an angler pulls out of the last day or not bother to weigh in . Rojas might go on that list too . I saw he didnt weigh in last tourney . Clunns done it twice this year and I had him both times .

Slower Gear Ratio = Better Bass Fishing
Until the last few years I was using the 4.6 to 1 Abus on everything . I have a 7 to 1 ratio that I use for the slowest fishing , worm and jig .

Who has the best Buzz bait???
A bait that runs left or right still catches fish . I like to have two rigged up that run both ways . The Original Lunker Lure runs a different direction than most other baits . Keep a Lunker Lure and Cavitron rigged and bump those stump.

Ordered two C3 4600 baitcasters!
I still have three but havent used them for a few years .At one time thats all I used . I had several original 4600C's the black ones with the red thumb bar . Several people told me that they coudnt use a baitcaster because of the backlash . i'd grab one of my 4600c's loosen the tension knob , cast as far as i could then lay it on the ground while the lure was in mid air , with no backlash .

Are fish smart at all?
S Smarts , instinct same difference to me . They are not learning via their livers .

Evidently some of you have never been lucky enough to fish for un-pressured bass . Its awesome . Big bass after big bass . They will follow you around . All one have to do is disengage the fishing reel and drop a lure in front of them . I had one swim between my legs . I only hope to get lucky enough to find such water again . I'm not exaggerating , it gets that good .

Okay . there are two identical lakes stocked with the same number and size largemouth bass . One receives no pressure the other gets hammered . Which one would you want to fish ?

What to use?
Sometimes a straight retrieve , sometimes add jerks and pauses . Fast , slow .Like other lures , you have to experiment to see how the bass are reacting . You can hold the rod tip high to make lures run shallower too .

What to use?
Now , you can use crankbaits that just dive a little bit Manns 1 minus comes to mind .I had luck at such a place with a tiny Bagleys Honey B .

What to use?
Difficult to fish crankbaits here . I know a place just like it and the fishing is great .I use worms , spinnerbaits and buzzbaits .there .

Buzzbait mania!!
You have enough to last a long time . I tend to use 1 buzzbait until the blade or rivet wears through then start on another one .

Rapala Skitter Pop, Rebel Pop-r or other?
I dont have enough room for all . A few Pop R's and Chug Bugs will just have to do .

Fishing Heavy Cover, Can't Cast Lures Far Enough
You could use heavier worms like 12 inch Manns Jelly worms .
