  1. Just a regular ole largemouth
  2. I only fish the chatterbait original because they're way cheaper. Wish I could help though
  3. That is awesome! Thanks
  4. Does anyone know where I can buy some wholesale or cheap tungsten? Seems there are some sketchy websites to buy it but does anyone have a reliable source? Thanks
  5. Personally, I use a baitcaster. The advantage that I see is just how many more casts you can take with one.
  6. Choose between monofilament or braid with a leader in my opinion. I use almost all 12lb Sufix monofilament being that my fisheries are clear.
  7. Based on reviews the Powell Inferno seems like a good rod for the $100 price tag. Does anyone have anyone like these rods?
  8. Hate to say it... but that's probably how it will go down unless they're on beds. Crazy warm weather has pre spawn right around the corner for us... in February!
  9. Hartwell is my home water and it can be a very hard fishery because of our blueback herring and lack of any true structure. Only structure we have is docks and brush piles. But you still see tournament bags that exceed 20 pounds
  10. So the location of the 2018 Bassmaster classic was revealed today. It's going to com back to Lake Hartwell for the second time in 4 years. Personally, I am excited because hartwell is my home water. But what are everyone else's thoughts on this? I personally believe that they are coming back because of how hard fishing on hartwell can be to people who aren't local. Thoughts?
  11. I need to buy a new rod around that price range. It's going to be a Medium Fast and between 7'-7'3". I'm looking at Duckett, Dobyns, St. Croix, and Fitzgerald. Any suggestions?
  12. I got one and regret it. Short, simple answer.
  13. Thanks for all of the much needed help yall.
  14. I don't know where you are fishing, but if it has smallmouth the water is probably way too clear for 17lb leader. I'd probably go with more like a 10 or 8 pound leader but you really have to fight the fish instead of horsing them in. Hope this helps.
  15. I recently purchased a big 6" flutter spoon in hopes of catch bass out on deep ledges. Any tips/help on how to fish it? Thanks.
  16. I've been craving bass fishing during the week when I'm not at the lake. The only public body of water that is close to me is a river that flows through downtown and a couple of parks. I used to fly fish in it for little bass and bream but now I want to try to catch some larger bass. It's shallow enough to wade in and I've seen some decent bass (relatively, 1-2 pounds). Any tips on fishing here? Can't imagine that it gets much pressure it's an obscure fishery.
  17. where is the sponsorship section?
  18. This summer, I've been working hard to try and collect sponsors for our upcoming bass fishing season. But I need some advice here, how would you all go about approaching a sponsor? All help will be gladly appreciated. Thanks.
  19. I feel zero tension, but I do watch my line like a hawk and see if it jumps, stops, or starts swimming off to the side.
  20. I caught two bass and a yellow perch on a green pumpkin finesse jig with half of a baby brush hog as a trailer. They all came off of shady banks.
  21. Thank you for the help
  22. First off, I never fish jigs. But today I worked up the appetite to throw jigs all day tomorrow. With the water reaching 90 degrees in the afternoon I figured that I would fish deep structure and docks. I have 7 jigs (2 football, 2 swim, and 3 flipping), how would you go about this day and fish the jigs. Would you fish docks at all? Would you fish deep structure? I have no idea what I am doing with jigs. How would you work them? What signs should I look for on the depth finder? All help would be gladly appreciated.
  23. Hartwell is my home lake. Sadly the water will probably be 90 degrees when you are here so it will be tough. I'd recommend anything in a white or a green that you can fish deep. Or a big Culprit worm on a carolina rig in redshad color.
  24. I fished it on a day where I didn't want to put dow the popper, I had one bite and I missed it. My friend threw right back in there with a sammy and landed the 4lber that I missed.
