Who’s Your Daddy (of finesse fishing)
I never really knew all these finesse names until I joined bass resource in 2016 or so. We just always used 6 lb line and finesse worms/tubes because they work and most everything else just hauls water i had heard plenty about billy westmorland growing up but I never even knew he was a finesse fisherman. For some reason I imagined him as a silver buddy and little George type of fisherman.

Ice fishing???
I like the idea of it but I’m fairly certain I would be terrified

Smoked 2 pfhuegar reels this past week
I’ve fixed spinning reels that break like that with the spring out of an ink pen many times

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
I haven’t opened them yet, I can check later when I get home . Water is still pretty warm, I’m planning on using them after Christmas I can’t weigh them but maybe I can compare to something similar . People use them here to drop straight down, not sure if weight is a factor at least with that particular method. I’ve never tried them personally but they were affordable and seemed worth a shot .

Reflecting on 2021, my year of the broken rod
I normally break plenty because I treat them terribly and they are very cheap to begin with. Somehow this year I think I’ve only had to replace tips that were fraying line (knock on wood)

Is it the fish or me?
Hahahah!!! If only I had a nickel for every time I’ve said that……..

I love the smell of powerbait in the morning
I’ve bought power bait gel to put on soft plastics, it works pretty well! Also the label says “fish bite and hold on 18 times longer” so just the amount of jokes that come from fellow anglers after reading that is worth the price of admission

The inurig. Winner or loser?
My apologies! I was indeed just being a smarty pants about the time it would take to rig. @KP Dutycaught me!

Yellowstone
I’ve watched a decent amount with my wife’s family. I’m also not a fan of it but I did like some parts I heard so much hype about how awesome it was, I was underwhelmed

I can’t believe I haven’t tried that!
I’m kind of in the opposite camp. I typically refuse to buy the latest lures on the market. I have never bought a ned rig, whopper plopper, vision 110, or lucky craft. I would have never bought a vibrating jig until I came across @Bluebasser86s homemade versions. im not a tournament winner but I can typically hold my own just dragging plastic worms around on thrift store quality rods and reels . Fishin ain’t that hard the last trick I fell for was “the walking worm” but the doggone thing caught fish until they were gone so maybe it wasn’t a trick

bomber long a
Just wobble it slowly on top and be ready for explosion. It even works in places you never think it would I’ve only purchased bone color but I’ve acquired a couple other ones somehow. I’ve always heard even if you don’t have a bone color one, scratch the paint off with a pocket knife and they are all bone underneath (never actually tried that) you’ll need new under britches when a striper thunder dunks one of them
