I would consider my self an average fisherman when it comes to the quantity and size of bass I catch and I'm sure there are plenty of us on the site that think like this as well. This question goes out to all the vetern and "pro" fishermen out there. What are some tips to take our game to the next level?

I am moving to Charleston SC this summer and am trying to find some decent lakes to fish. So far the only ones i have found are Moultree, Santee, and Goose Creek Reservoir. I live in Charlotte where I have 7 great lakes within an hour of me, have I been spoiled or are there really not that many fresh water spots around Charleston?

need to equip my boat with a new trolling motor. Ive always had off brand "pond prowlers" but am going to spend some money to get what I want. so which is better?

I will have 2 seperate batteries in my boat one for starting/running my outboard and one for my trolling motor. I will be running a 45lb thrust minn kota edge and my outboard is just a 30hp. What battery classes of you found that works best for voltage and number of CCA's? Looking to spend around $100 per battery.

I just got a new (to me) 17ft side console bass boat and am needing some help choosing eletronics. I am on a tight budget would prefer to spend no more than $200 for something new or used. I like being able to plot locations, seeing structure would be great but not a neccesary. What have you used successfully? I have seen eletronic post before but never a "budget eletronic" post so lets see who will step up!

HIGH ROCK LAKE!!! How has no one mentioned High Rock yet!

Has anyone fished the Goose Creek Reservoir in Charleston? I am moving there and have found a nice home on this lake. Any information on what you caught and used would be appreciated. If there are any other good lakes around the area let me know those too!
