New Fangled Gas cans 😡
@Functional, I have that top one on my 2 cycle jug and I get gas all over my hands and the ground every time. I’m glad they came up with a way to prevent spillage by making it way worse 😂

First Timer Here
Frog, 50 lb braid for chickamauga in October. Also have something to pitch around when it slows down like a fluke/senko. Small cranks and walking baits can also be good on the main channel grass wall

Predict your 2024 biggest bass
I’d guess this will be my biggest LM caught Saturday, don’t get them often

Have You Ever Caught A Snapping Turtle...??
We had this one that would always steal our bait in my buddy’s pond. We finally caught and ate it, had 5-6 of our hooks and tons of hot dogs inside 😂 my buddy’s mom has pet ducks they are always eating as well. The other day one of them grabbed a duck by the leg and the duck somehow swam the turtle all the way to shore and dragged it up onto dry land

Why no love for the Alabama bass ?
@Tennessee Boy, my ichthyology professor was David etnier, who discovered the snail darter. They named it etnierii after him for some time but I see the species name as tanasi now. they took the completion of the dam to the Supreme Court over concerns this was the snail darters only habitat. The TVA lost but president carter passed the bill thru and completed the dam anyway. The snail darter has now been discovered in other watersheds and has been removed from the endangered species list https://higherground.utk.edu/snail-darter/ lucky for me, I’ve got a house on the resulting tellico lake 😂. maybe a good message in there concerning Alabama bass, wait until further research is done. I’d gladly eat as many as I can but I don’t buy the doomsday hype.

Which bodies of water would you rather live near?

Pond Observations
Live cicada on a small hook and 4 lb test Saturday Bob, don’t even need a fly rod. Granted I’ve been using fly rod and slaying carp with them too

Anyone ever think that panfish may be line shy?
They will bite where your line touches the surface of the water so they can definitely see it . Threading the eye of the small hooks and casting and presentation will be much better with 4-6 lb, I’d at least add a leader of lighter line

Catfish are pushing out the bass
I’ve always heard flatheads are hunters predators blah blah but I know plenty of folks that catch massive flathead on cutbait and massive blues on live bait also. They are catfish, they eat everything they can and then some more one thing is for sure, channel cats fight like crazy and blues will chomp down on your hand and won’t let go

Landscaping Projects
Hahahah twelve days my foot! More like 30 minutes here and there, wore me slap out . That bucket is handy but I hate it now 😂 I used it to fill up mom’s garden box too but I could drive near it. My house is too steep for any driving except on the driveway
