  1. I stand corrected. Yes this now makes 3
  2. 1 more... The U.S. military shot down a second “high altitude object” in American airspace, this time off the coast of Alaska on Friday, the White House announced. The mission occurred less than a week after a high altitude Chinese surveillance balloon was shot down off the coast of South Carolina.

  5. May I ask why so long? Seems like anything under that is just reel filler.
  6. My partner and I launched his boat from Welatka, Fl. to fish the St. Johns river in preparation for a club TNT this Sunday. We found some fish getting ready to do there annual ritchual. Both of us threw a weightless trick worm "juneBug" on spinning tackle. A good fish on spinning tackle was FUN!! and a challenge around the vegetation and laydowns. We started fishing @ 0800 and quit @ 1300 after sore mouthing 14 LM.

    Caught in 1993= 30 years. I knew when I caught her I would probably not ever beat it, but I am still casting. In fact leaving in half hour to fish the St. Johns River here in Fl.
  8. Looks like they were eating "Red Eye Shad " also

  10. Welcome from Jacksonville Fl.
  11. The football jig is the king of offshore fishing thanks to its head shape, which is designed to not tip over when dragged on bottom on ledges, points and the like. It’s also a great tool to feel the bottom content. To fish it, simply pull the jig along a bit, take up the slack and repeat. Reel up slack line before setting the hook. A football jig can also be stroked up and down off the bottom. The technique: Rip it up, then let it sink back on a slack or semi-slack line. Fish usually bite on the fall. Flipping jig design. Some of that stems from the variety of cover types that anglers flip and the fact that some jigs are designed to be versatile enough for other techniques. Typically, a flipping jig is a target bait for making short flips, pitches and roll-casts to shallow wood, shoreline grass, deeper grass beds (in some situations) and docks. Once the bait reaches the target, let it fall, hop it a time or two, and then reel it back in for the next flip. Shoot for a quiet entry into the water each time. The swim jig is designed to come through grass and wood, but it’ll get bites in open water too. Just don’t drag it. Swim it. Sometimes a straight retrieve is desirable, but another common technique is to shake the rod tip while reeling. It can be fished right at the surface, scraping along the bottom or in between.

    Boat owner, front seat and friend snatched this girl on a weightless trickworm in Rodman Res Fl. yesterday in the cold and wind. While I caught two squeelers all day.
  14. No structure + no cover = No fishing. Except schoolers chasing bait I will find other spots on the lake.
  15. Several ways to rig this bait. Texas with a wide gap hook and swim it. Belly weighted hook with a screwlock. and swim it. Use it as a trailer on buzz baits, swim jigs chatterbaits etc. https://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/paddle-tail-swimbaits.html
