It was a great weekend in Ny. Caught a bunch of fish , 2 new species. 20’ fish total for me Walleye, lake trout steelhead, drum, smallies and redhorse sucker ( new species). Greater redhorse and shorthead redhorse. Up to 126 fish species

I need to fish

I’m Not a fan of deep water in the spring. I love shallow water. Warm strong sun, rising temps gets em all fired up. Deep ponds stay cooler longer. Deep water ponds are less affected by weather. Shallow water ponds are more affected. So I like shallow in spring, deep in winter. But a brief warm up in the winter will have them chewing in shallow water. One January I had a great bag with 2 fish over 4lbs with a 5.10 flipping jigs in shallow water trees like it was pre spawn March. It was warm and very windy, That’s an absolute unit of a brown

I love the warm windy days. They get them fired up!

Thanks bud. Super happy. They are fun as hell. Never had sheepshead before. I’ve heard they are great to eat

Just got back from Florida. Fished salt and fresh. Couldn’t get anything on lures in the salt, had to use live shrimp. Got 5 new species. Mangrove snapper, jack crevalle, sheepshead, coppernose blue gill sunfish and a Penn pursuit 4k combo. Also got a couple Florida bass too. Up to 123 different species of fish. I can’t wait to get more

🤣🤣 they had a kids course
-
Got mine 20 years ago
-
Woooooo @DogBone_384 great job getting it done!
-
Nice gator. I’ve got pickerel that stole my lure. Had a pick broke off a t rig. Next cast got the pick
-
Idk where you’re from but I’m in MA we get giant pickerel. Sucks fishing a big swimbait for bass, setting the hook thinking it’s a giant and it’s a pickerel. I’ve had them eat 10 inch swimbaits
-
Now is the time to get that personal best. I’ve caught many big fish in March. Biggest I’ve caught in March was a 7-10 on a jerkbait. Get out there! The next cast could be that 7 plus
-
I fish swimbaits! Some are a pretty penny! My best one $160 DS customs glide bait. Incredible bait. He makes a few different ones. But my favorite is a floating glide. You can add suspend dots to it or upgrade to beefier hooks to make it suspend. It’s a niche bait. I crush fish on it. My PB on it 8lbs 2 ounce MA largemouth.

Like a blade rip pause. Or burn pause. It’s a really cool bait
-
Found open water yesterday. First cast of the year. Ended up with 10 bass, they loved the weedless hudd, 6th sense suspending lipless and head hunter jerkbait. Felt great getting out! ITS GAME TIME
-
Fish more this year. Learn new waters. Always new species
-
Oh yea definitely got the baby. That’s a giant bait
-
What’s the size difference. Can’t remember which one I got. I think it’s the baby. Swims great
-
Mass yak. I got a CL8 possum haven’t gotten bit on it yet! Any tips?
-
I love the Psycho gill, the Gillionare, DS customs, Matt’s strong shad, the MS slammer. Freestyle swimmers like the Matt’s strong Shad have a subtle action I find better for colder water topwater. DS makes great baits. Really love his floating glide, free style swimmer and ninja wake. All those baits catch me large fish all year long here in Ma
-
Wake baits all year long. Whopper plopper from pre spawn to fall
-
I may get that for bladed jigs and use a better organized regular box for regular jigs
-
Hell yea dude! Been on here for a few years. Good place tons of info. Conventional stuff is fun and can be just as good. Had a 20lb bag of winter bass flipping jigs to trees a few years ago. Probably couldn’t have done that fishing a swimbait. That’s the way I look at it! Just another tool in the box. But I can’t get bit on a herring bite without fishing a big bait
-
yoooo what’s up Jesse. You already know about me bro. Ladies and gents. Swimbait stud helped me get into the Swimbaits here in MA 10 years ago. Slammer is my OG Swimbait but don’t nearly use them as much as I used to. Still got like 20 of them. The DS baits have been my number one baits recently. Love the glides, the freestyle 3 piece, the ninja wake and crawler. Real preys always my number 1 soft bait. The psycho gill has been great. Haven’t been throwing the big baits nearly as much as I used too. Took a step back from it. Focused mostly on just catching fish. I need to get back at it. Fish hard again
