^that don’t taste like Carmel marshmallows……. 😂

The distinguishing characteristic for me is the blunt nose on gizzard vs the pointy nose on threadfin

@Bazoo, your threadfin is actually a gizzard shad

^unenforceable

Depends on what you want to do, fishing license plus a trout stamp is around $60. Go hunting and you’ll need to talk to a banker 😂

You can pay even more than triple that by moving to TN 😂

I just saw this post from KVD. Your thoughts? Seems like you are already limited to a short season, why take away two months?

I was about to post but saw @PhishLI chimed in, he fishes in green jungles so I’d just use his advice for weedless

Brutal

Winter fishing is my jam. Cant wait, just wish it wasn’t always dark . 47-49 degree water is right in the wheelhouse of a smallmouth bass, which is about what it stays all winter here

@Dwight Hottle, look like monsters, 6+??

Nice fish Dwight. Was it hard tying a jerkbait on that dropshot? 😂

Nice!!! Congrats on that monster

@Swamp Girl, small world! That’s not far from home. My grandad worked at oak ridge back in the atom bomb days

Laphroaig, mclellands islay. That’s really the only two but for the sake of the exercise , we shall round out the top 5 with Talisker, Johnny walker black, and maybe some buffalo trace flagship for the guests that don’t like scotch

Ohtani with a 10 strike out 2 hitter and 3 home runs at the plate? Greatest postseason single game performance in baseball history ? Gotta be that, Reggie Jackson’s game, or Don Larson’s no hitter

Sending good thoughts to the @Swamp Girl family. Which part of TN?

bite was slow but I didn’t get skunked what a day @Mbirdsley!!! Congrats! @Swamp Girl, I’d say you’ll have 1500 bass by the weekend

I see Allison and bullets all the time, mostly because both brands are made very close to home Davis was going 67.8 mph I believe, Allison and Bullet can usually go 85+

Why is this smallmouth green and black??? Just kidding , got the always rare LMB floating back to the boat ramp, was almost skunked. It hit a weedless pumpkin tube very shallow, happy to see one

Hey @gim, off topic but that reminded me . How is your mom doing ?

A worm! Same as all the other seasons granted two of the biggest I’ve ever caught were with rattle trap . But I’m always throwing a worm if I’m bass fishing

let’s go for a ride sometime ! That video was taken with 3 guys over 200 lbs in the boat 😂. It’ll go even shallower on a lighter load

You know me , I just camp out in the vicinity of good spots and toss a fluke or topwater or paddle tail. They can and do move a lot faster than we do. My chances of locating a roaming fish with my gas engine then catching them are about as good as the Browns winning the Super Bowl

The pucker factor is real
