  1. Had a good time meeting everyone during the road trip to Kentucky Lake. Fishing was tough but we managed to hook a few. A special thanks goes out to Roadwarrior for setting this up.
  2. Looking forward to the next 4 days to meet everyone and do a little fishing. Should be arriving at Moors Resort around 4 Weds afternoon.
  3. A buddy and me are arriving Wednesday afternoon at Moors resort. Anyone plan on hooking up for dinner and meeting up?
  4. I have 4 Lews and 2 Garcias, both are smooth and hard to tell a difference. I'm very satisfied with both. My preference is determined by sale prices.
  5. My buddy and I just received permission from CINC Houses (aka wives) and lodging reservations confirmed at Moors Resort for 27 Apr-1May at Kentucky Lake. This is our first BassResource Road Trip, really looking forward to it. We'll bring a boat with us and might be able to squeeze one more with us if needed. Is there going to be an agenda released as the dates get closer?
  6. I love this the MLF format. Competitors are provided live updates on the standings really pushes them. I really liked the "Lessons" episode this season. By far my favorite fishing show.
  7. I like lews reels a lot. However, I recently got a BB-1 for Father's Day and am having problems setting it up. Getting a lot of backlashes compared to my other lower Lews reels. I don't know if it my casting or just having problems setting the brake system. Any advice?
  8. Been there done that. Retired 24yr AF E8. Thank you for continuing the honored tradition of defending our great country. If you ever get to northern Alabama it would be my great honor to take you out for a day on the water. Defensor Fortis
  9. Welcome to the best resource website for bass fishing.
  10. This why this is the BEST bass site ever! The information and contributors are great, both for experienced and inexperience fishermen/women.
  11. Fishing-golf-hunting. It's a balance of fishing and golf. My wife likes to golf a little more than she enjoys fishing. Hunting takes over when the seasons open.
  12. I picked up a SOC backpack that I use in my boat, when I go fishing at local ponds and when I go out on friends' boats. It can easily store 4 Plato tackle boxes, tools, and has plenty of compartments to handle a lot of stuff. You can organize it any way you want and it is very durable. Link below has a pic. I take it with me every time I fish. http://www.uscav.com/productinfo.aspx?productid=16059&tabid=1&utm_expid=16629476-3.YzmYeoOKRfGKtzNx74GoXQ.0&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F
  13. Budget_Bass, you and I must have got a hold of the same combo. That is pretty much how I started baitcasting, been using spincasters my whole life and decided I wanted to learn something else. Thought before I go diving in to deep I'd pickup a low priced Shakespeare, what a waste of money & time. Casts were rough, short distance and it was difficult to get setup correctly. A few months back I purchased an Abu Garcia Revo S. Wow, what a difference. I suggest buying the best you can afford it really makes a difference.
  14. I'm with frantzracing0, bought my veritas (7' MH) a few months and love it. Never had a ducket so can't speak for them, but I will be going out with a Bass guide in late April and that is the only rod he provides. I've heard good things about the the Mojo by St Croix.
  15. Just picked this one up this weekend. This is our first boat, 21 ft 98 Bumble Bee w/225 hp Mercury
  16. Great information I'm about ready to buy a used boat with a Minn Kota Terrova with i-Pilot, 24 volt, 80 lb thrust trolling motor with GPS, foot pad and remote control. Good to get these reviews. Thanks
  17. Thanks for the info on the license, I'll have my bro check it out. If we get out there before your Memorial Day trip I'll let you know how we do.
  18. Good luck, interested on how you do. I've had some luck along the grass beds heading towards the d**n.
  19. Thanks when we get dates narrowed down I'll hit you up for some lake info.
  20. For those of you who are not familiar with the resort it is very nice. Cabins are along the water, there's nature trails and a skeet range. We rent a cabin every thanksgiving holiday there. I'm going to try to make this event all depends on work.
  21. I'm here in Huntsville. Do a lot of bank fishing at Wilson lake and along the Tennessee river. wife and I are purchasing our first boat in May. With our kids all grown and out of the house we're open to any gathering or fishing endeavor.
  22. Looking for a few good recommendations on locations along the Georgia/Alabama line. I'm in Huntsville and my brother is in Atlanta so we're looking for a place to meet half way for a weekend fishing expedition. Anyone got some suggestions?
  23. Gander is having a good sale on plastics, buy 4 get 1 sort of thing. Brands include strike king, zoom & power bait
  24. I spent a number of years in Naples and Aviano. Italy is a great place with fantastic food/ wine we really enjoyed our time there and planning a vacation to Florence.
  25. The job transferred me to Huntsville, Alabama from northern VA. I've enjoyed fishing my whole life but never really went after bass. Seeing how I'm in the thick of bass heaven with lake guntersville 45 mins away plus Lakes Wheeler, Wilson and Pickwick near by, I figure it is time to pick it up. Love this site for its wealth of info and videos. Learned a lot so far just from the posts. Hope to see ya on the water.
