Put a barrel swivel about a foot up from it. Helps it sink deeper also

Dirtbags. Next thing it will be hackers or photoshop I’ve never looked at a fish close enough to know if two could be identical, I wonder if they pay the people that have to sort through all the photos

And who can forget the guy in TX that carried a bass tail with him and overlapped it for the photos? People are crazy

Yea I figured they were needles like pine

Wait a minute, cypress trees ain’t got leaves……..

What’s to keep someone from submitting the same fish multiple times thru photos? also I posted in another thread, it’s nearly impossible to photograph a smallmouth with its mouth closed. Every time I’ve tried it flops all over the boat, not great for the fish either. I think the fish would be dead before I got the correct photo that brings up another point, you could spend enough time trying to get your photo that the fish is dead but probably still counts

Yote removal is like cutting the grass, they always grow back

Depends on who you ask. Bass aren’t rare and people catch big ones every single day, even after 50 years of bass tournaments. They probably laugh when we feel sorry for them and they would happily eat us in one bite if they could

love the fiddle in this one

But you get to drive a tractor that you don’t have to pay for!

“Drinkin’ mad dog margaritas, and not carin’ where you are”

Congrats!!! I’m sure there will be hunting and trapping on this 50 acres as well eastern KY?

You can find smallies in N GA and N AL if you need a shorter trip

Ok it’s pouring cold rain so I’m going to post some more current home pond ? Forever home pond ? going shallow ? and a few pics from my yearly journey south into the cypress swamps ?

I get the feeling you don’t mind going fast…….

It helps to be born on 3rd base like me…….. I’ve got a very lower middle class salary but I’m good at showing up and sweating so my family lets me do stuff. Like stay at a lake house and clean the gutters cut the grass, chop firewood, vacuum, sweep, dishes, chimney sweep, drywall (with supervision). And buy composite boards……. Hahah im Probably the only one crazy enough to have jumped on @scaleface’s potential proposal, but that’s just because I’m crazy and $800 is in my tax bracket haha

My cousin (in law) Diana took them, she’s great

Last year I went from TN to Erie to Michigan. I fished some but my best catch was at Point Betsie lighthouse in Frankfort headed back in July also!

My mom would faint for sure

Pretty cool! Those urban bucks can sneak around and get massive. Even cities have plenty of acorns!

My buddy has a camper they park on Norris lake from march-nov. The kids can ride circles around the campground on their bicycles and swim all summer, all they have to worry about is storms and ants haha

No wonder you’re still rocking when you drive home! I used to have a 14 ft alumacraft that I took on a windy mountain lake in the dead of winter several times , I know the feeling do you get Netflix on that TV?

Great pic!!!

I haven’t tried much yet, just a bigger Phillips and trying to hold the hex nut underneath with a recessed wrench (with my other hand) and failing
