I was throwing frog and buzzbait all morning to no avail, my 12 yr old co angler caught 3 in a hurry with a crank bait so I figured I better follow suit. Caught 4 fish in about 10 minutes on the RAD series 3.0

It is comforting to know there is at least one place in America with smaller bass than Knoxville, TN

Warm fuzzies

Yea my buddy that works for the fed deals with that, he travels to the Midwest and kills hundreds of thousand of them chicken coops keep people like me in business. Everything loves to eat yard bird including myself

I drink about 3 gallons of water a day in summer but eat everything that’s not nailed down. And if it is nailed down, I just use a claw hammer to pry the nail loose then eat it

You better set some traps!!!!

Happy birthday!

Today I threw the the 3.0 a decent amount for the first time. It was hitting the bottom in about 5 feet of water on 15 lb seaguar fluoro. This bait is lighter than the 1.5 squarebill and I don’t think there’s a weight transfer, I didn’t hear the click sound when throwing it. Its got a much tighter wiggle and I’m guessing would work better when the fish are being a tad more finicky

Winner winner. My buddy was throwing it while I was looking for the shad

if you think sitting in a boat and not catching fish is hard, I’d like to work wherever you do

If it’s fast, it was probably made close to my house. Bullet, Allison, or Norris craft

I point my rod at them like a .12 gauge , that’s universal freak out among geese

Frogging fun . Another short session in the morning and driving back home to no bass land tomorrow

Ain’t hard to skunk. In fact it’s easier than slayin em

I love dry years, east TN is a tropical rainforest that usually flooding

I’ve never bought one

Depends on the hook. Light wire I stick it in one nostril and out the other. Thicker hooks I use the method @LrgmouthShad described if you’re fishing ponds, live bluegill will work magic

If fishing is hard, you ain’t doin it right

I’m sure you can guess who that is in the back with the bill dance hat on…….. that was not long after college on the hiwassee river . You can tell the photographers know where to set up and watch for the yard sales keep after em Katie, stuff happens but you’re plenty tough

I got crapped on by a cormorant once. I mean splattered from my chest to the bottom of my shorts. It smelled god awful, I took all the stuff out of my pockets and jumped in the water

It all depends on how well you know the man running the trolling motor……… if he’s your pal for 30 years tell him to slow the heck down. If you just met him, take your medicine and see if you can catch ‘em however possible

@Bluebasser86, awesome trip with great fish! I like those go vols shorts your oldest is wearing ! Hahaha
