I was just curious if anyone has any advice on fishing Pickwick in the winter? i've had great trips in the spring and fall but cannot for the life of me figure it out in the winter. I've had good trips fishing out on the main lake when there's a lot of current but otherwise it seems to fish really tough, but i see plenty of big sacks caught so it's pretty frustrating haha.

I plan on getting a Ultrex whenever this one goes out.

So I don't know if anyone else has this problem but my Motorguide x5 arrow keeps getting misaligned. I adjusted it back into place about 4 times on a recent trip and it still eventually becomes misaligned again.

I was looking to get a baitcasting rod for weightless/light flippin and pitchin. I'm stuck on whether to go 7' Medium or 7'1 Med-Hvy. My choice of line would be 15lb Fluorocarbon if that matters. This was the line of rods I was looking at https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/search-tackle.html?from=basres&start=0&count=20&prevsearch=tatula+baitcast&searchtext=tatula

Wow those are amazing. Still haven't gotten a mount done of mine yet.

I was looking to get a new spinning reel in the $100 range. I'm a Daiwa guy and saw they offered two reels in that range but i'm not sure which one to get. I know the Fuego LT is newer and has a higher gear ratio but that's about it. Any input from someone who has owned either reel would be appreciated.

I fish Pickwick a lot but have no clue who the good guides are. With father's day coming up I wanted to book a trip for my father.

Guess it's just an area thing. $150-$200 will get you a great skin mount here. I just personally wanted to go replica because they don't deteriorate.

Why are you so angry over something that has nothing to do with you?

Have you received your mount yet? I'm looking at getting a replica as well. I'd love to see pictures.

All the skin mounts i've seen eventually get faded and dried out. Those look stunning but unfortunately way out of my price range.

I'm looking to get a replica of my PB largemouth. It would most likely need to be a place that ships as I live in North Mississippi right outside of Memphis, TN. My budget price is $300-$400. I know nothing about replica taxidermy though so I don't know if that's a realistic number or not.

I'm looking for a new crankbait rod that's between 7'10" to 8' in length. Something I would throw 6XD's mostly on, maybe an 8XD. Only rod I found in that category was the Powell Endurance rods but never had a Powell rod so unsure if they're good or not.
