Sweet!!!

Sounds like your method of email might be better than a resizing. I use picresize.com

Winter is my favorite time to fish but I have also been off work all week. Days should be getting longer soon though!! I don't know how y'all can survive without fishing for 3-4 months, I would have to get out on the ice or uproot and fly south! Although high temp here today is 25 so I wouldnt quite call it a tropical vacation destination. We could get some hard water in shallow coves the next few days

Mmmmm water temp 45 Bobby garland 1/16 oz head

Awesome! I guess I should try "the hill" one of these days. I have only fished it during summer

Spoons or little Bobby garland shad on 1/16th head

Got 3-4 smallmouth. Then everything else! Yellow bass, black crappie, bluegill, yellow perch, sauger, walleye, maybe a saugeye. Second livewell pic is to show how big the crappie is, its a donkey

Last line of the report says safely released

Excellent work, I can't get fish to hit blade baits like I used to. But I do have some just like the one in your picture

Air still cold, water temp 50 on this lake. Fished all day for 5-6 but still worth it! Fun times, caught mine with gulp minnow and rage tail menace t rig. buddy used a swimming fluke

Gar is indeed awesome

Got out on the river from about 8:30-noon this morning. The air was really cold, my face nearly froze off so I drove slowly from spot to spot. Only got one largemouth but he made the trip worth it! Water temp was 47-49, current was quite swift. I took the boat home and got word that Christmas festivities were slightly delayed so I bank fished on the way to mom's house and got two bluegill. Merry Christmas!

Good gracious! Congrats

Prayers sent

Fun stuff!!

And then they issue permits to let private companies kill grass with granular herbicide......... it's a vicious cycle

Sweet. Maybe keep a crappie pole in your tournament boat

Neoprene gloves make my hands sweat then the sweat freezes. I still can't fish with gloves on, but then again I live in a somewhat warm climate. Started at 21 degrees Saturday and didn't need gloves, just alternate putting each hand in your pocket every once in a while

Hahahahahaha. Accurate description. Word of mouth travles faster than the speed of light in TN. If your neighbors cousin has a flat tire you will hear about it before he makes it home

I know the spaghetti you speak of........

I tried it literally all day with no bites. With the water at 55 my guess is that it's not quite cold enough yet for it here

Was your boat anywhere near a cliff or bridge or dam wall? If not, that's a crap ton of shad with some predators amongst them. if you are close enough to a vertical wall and the water is deep enough, the cone angle will pick it up and the graph will display something similar to your screenshot edit: just looked at the screenshot again and there may be more predators there than shad. I also remembered I have some old screen shots of schools of white bass. This particular picture is with the boat moving 1.6 mph, the display would show much flatter longer lines if you are sitting still, especially on the 3D side

Maybe one day!!! I eat everything that's not nailed down and use all free time to fish or read about fishing........ it's a disease.........fishitis......I'm about 6'1" 205, I tell my girlfriend that I'm the same specs as an NFL free safety, only shaped different and remarkably slower....... I figure keeping all my excess weight around the waist will keep me on the boat deck on those windy days, low center of gravity ya know

People that say largemouth don't fight hard have clearly never caught a big one. I caught an 8 one time that pulled the rod way down in the water and almost pulled me off the deck. Thanks for the report and video and kudos for championing the fighting ability of a largemouth

Dang. Nice fish
