Maximizing your prespawn time on water......learning from mine and maybe other's mistakes
It’s funny bass spawn for a short period but it’s all bass anglers talk about nearly year round.

Fueling up
My truck never has more than half a tank haha. Granted I have a company truck so mine is only used on evenings and weekends. I usually get 8 gallons, mostly because my brain is weird and I like to track mpg.

Satisfy your curiosity!
Not his in particular but you should see pros tour boats near the end of the season, they use them to their full potential and then go 3-4 levels beyond. Coincidentally, I saw a Suzuki at the tackle shop parking lot today

Replacing Fluorocarbon Line
You must not like catching the bottom as much as I do I always change it when I run out, I stay stuck on the bottom haha. I use backing so I don’t go through the more expensive stuff too quickly

Does this happen to you?
After you spool it up, before you tie a lure on, pull a decent bit of line off and reel it back on. Maybe do it 2-3 times. Even better, if you are on a moving boat or in swift water, let line out and reel it back in. Just got to get the line good and ready for action sometimes

You inherit Warren Buffett's estate. What do you build or buy?
I’d probably cut the grass over at @ol'crickety’s VA estate

Bassmaster Classic
I’m sure gussy will be there again, I catch a 13-14” smallie bank fishing there on my work route all the time haha. Conditions definitely favor shallow bite but I suppose they did last time as well. It has been 23-24 degrees the last couple nights

Bassmaster Classic
Should be about the same, I crossed over that spot today. It’s actually a manmade canal between the two lakes where he won.

Well that’s cool!!! Thanks for translating Kent! Unfortunately me reading those rod models is like reading……. Italian! (See what I did there?) I don’t know anything about them but I have no doubt the BR community will offer plenty of advice

What do you generally find to be the magic number in regards to water temperature for stream smallmouth?
You’re crushing them man, I’m impressed (and slightly jealous) I can catch smallies pretty good in the 40s water temp, 50s it’s like they all disappear and 5 billion white bass show up

Interesting article about livescope w/ Dobyns/Jones
Don’t forget tournaments, these bass that live 5-10 years can’t withstand 50 years of bass tournaments. Oh wait you mean they already have and are now larger?? Well…..

Small ponds always produce the biggest bass from what I’ve seen. You can fish 3 lifetimes and never catch a 10 lber on my home lake. Usually only takes a day or two on cow ponds, my buddy had one growing up that was darn near automatic too many mouths to feed as well as other species in big rivers/lakes

Ulterra on a Tracker classic?
Beware of the auto stow/deploy . I know one guy that had it deploy on the highway and another had it deploy while the boat was on plane. Both resulted in trolling motors turned into candy canes
