  1. Is there more to this formula I’m not seeing like a division sign somewhere? If I catch a 2 inch bass with 2 inch girth length x length x girth= wght in lbs 2 X 2 X 2 = 8 pounder? if so I’ve caught a state record in every state ?
  2. I’d go to the second picture and try that flat in 6 feet of water next to the deep hole, or the long Flat point in between “Pads” and “sand”
  3. Catfish, carp, or drum? I’ll rinse my hands in the water. White bass, largemouth, bluegill? Doesn’t bother me, I’m out there to fish and when the white bass are going good catching 100+ in a day is nothing. When I get home I’ll use a good dose of lemon juice and toothpaste and I’m good to go
  4. What lake Or lakes Are you planning on fishing? Are you strictly fishing off the bank?
  5. i would get a replica made. youll never even know
  6. not trying to steal his thread. but how do you go about buying a premium account?? only option i see is from cabelas? i figured there would be an option on the gofree site. Thanks
  7. no experiemce there but as kidflex said. this would be as good of place as any to start
  8. yep i use omfishingsinkers too. only place ill buy from anymore. cheap prices and excellent quality. and it only took about 2 weeks to be delivered. quick google search of omfishingsinkers will bring you to the page
  9. only a few people i can fish with for a day enjoyably. otherwise ill only fish a few hours. the worst is you take someone out and barely 2 hours in they start complaining about wanting to leave
  10. you can spend it over time. i bought i 500 dollar gift csrd when they were 20 percent off or whatever and have made 3 different orders so far. i dont believe it expires either. at least any time soon
  11. i put 10 on the deck today. ended up only needing 3. but to me its versatility and more time fishing not because i seen it on tv. went to a lake and had no idea what the fish might be doing. so i had it pretty well covered and didnt have to stop and tie on a bunch of different baits. on tournament day once we have fish patterned ill have 3 rods on the deck set up for what were doing and a 5 or 6 more in the rod locker in case things change
  12. i have 2 lfs (90 dollars on ebay) and 1 tatula 100hsl (was 150 on tw now 95 on ebay) i honestly couldnt recommend 1 over the other from my experiences. there both super smooth and probably 2 of the best reels made in the 100 dollar price range. ive used both flipping and can cast and skip just fine. i prefer the lfs a little bit more just because its a little smaller feeling in the hand IMO whichever one you choose youre getting a good reel
  13. ive had the lightning rod and the vengeance. but used and still use the vengeance for chatterbaits and i used the lightning rod for flipping tubes. i thought both were good rods for the money. i did have the insert come out of the eye on the tip of the lightning rod but i returned it to walmart no questiond asked. my brother has a couple of them and hasnt had a problem. i did manage to catch a 4lber on the lightning rod in the first 5 minutes of using it. but in the end it is a 50 dollar rod
  14. tubes is about the only thing i would add. love throwing them in the spring
  15. i dont fish beds to often as i usualy fish muddy water and dont typically see many bed fish but when i do. i usually throw a white brush hog or lizard. but going down the bank when u flip a white jig and pop it a couple times and then let it sink. get a lot of big reaction bites this way
  16. went to tacklestore a and b. tacklestore a had like 1 item i wanted and tacklestore b had about 50 percent. i pretty much order online for specific items now due to the fact shipping is cheaper than driving and i dont have to spend an hour looking for the exact product i want and i can usually find it cheaper. and not sure if its been mentioned but for reels i buy on ebay now. usually 30 to 100 dollars cheaper and you can get a 1, 2, or 3 year replacemrnt plan from certain sellers
  17. i threw weightless flukes and weightless senkos on a revo s baitcaster with a 7' MH carbonlite rod from basspro and had no problem getting them out there or skipping them under docks
  18. i had a 2002 g3 pro 175. great boat mine ran smooth
  19. for a 100 dollar rod i would get a falcon bucco in 7' MH. not a lot you wont be a able to do with that rod. for line i would get some 15lb fluorocarbon. possibly 12 if youre using it more for crankbaits etc. or maybe 18 or 20 lb if youre mainly flipping
  20. i mainly fish shakey heads in 8 feet or more of water. i like to use a 3/16 oz head with a zoom trick worm or something similar (i bite the first 1/4 inch of the bait off to get it to thread on easier. if its to windy ill bump up to a 1/4 oz. green pumpkin purple in zoom trick worm is my go to color
  21. im gonna try today. everything i read says its just about the best fighting fish out there. and imaways up for a challenge
  22. If i was you i would throw 3/8 oz chatterbsits. 3/8 - 1/2 oz spinnerbaits. And anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 Oz jig and punch skirts.. maybe 3/4 oz punch if your in some thick stuff. And same for flipping weights. Sounds like your mainly fishing shallow so you shouldnt need to much weight to get to bottom quick and doesnt sound like you have any heavy mats to get through. i think i can control my flipping better with lighter weights. When i fish laydowns stuff etc. I typically usr a 3/8 oz jig or flipping weight. For maps try downloadong navionics they have some good maps to get you started
