Cubs are in 1st place......

Not sure if it’s against the rules, but I would suggest praying. It’s an ages old tactic for getting through any funk you find yourself in with millions of success stories

I shove an 1/8 oz round ball head into them and push on the eye, it will break through the bait and be ready to tie on. Caught several with it this evening

Even when other people are stupid, I still use the golden rule. “You can’t fix stupid”......... well you can, but it’s illegal. More love is always the answer

I saw a video of a guy catching them in Lake Michigan in 1-2 feet of water recently. He was sight fishing with a pop R !

I catch them shallow and deep all year long . They don't know the rules and would break the rules if they did know them

It’s weird but better than no baseball. I love the crack of the bat. Hot dog cravings have gone up exponentially though....... I enjoyed watching your Sox and I don’t even like them! Haha

Go cubs go

Now that just breaks my heart! Mine is typically on January 1 and my last one is usually December 31

We have a Montana member that catches bigger bass than I do in TN, he just sent me some pics of monster bass yesterday

Teckel sprinker and h20 express popping frog have both called up the biggest largemouth I’ve hooked in a while last summer so I will say they are my top 2. Unfortunately I lost both fish at the boat after long fights and several jumps. Not the frogs fault though

Strike king bitsy tube is my favorite. I’ve never noticed or cared if the tails clumped together but the fish eat them year after year after year

I’ve seen baby dolls displayed in similar fashion in the backwater rivers, I’m glad my brain functions normally

Reckon they buzzer bite will pick up ? Should be good during the heat

I’ve caught a couple humans, a duck, some rocks, and an onion sack full of mud that, while trying to release, I hooked my thumb

Nice fish!

I see a lot of pros reeling them just under the surface and you can see the swirl when they bite! It always seems like a no doubter when you get bit on swim jig

Woops

I'm not from the area and have never fished there but after watching some YouTube of recent pros and others fishing in MichiganWisconsin, I would rig up some drop shots! The only fishing I've done in Michigan was Sept and the fish were pretty shallow and biting hard. I assumed they were moving sballow for fall ....... That being said, I saw a video of recent lake Michigan action on topwater. Post spawn VERY shallow SMB, so maybe they never leave the shallows or haven't left them yet

I think someone weighed in several hours early at the BASs st Lawrence this weekend because his fish were struggling

Was very cool to watch live on TV and not a cell phone

You caught the fish though! By golly

Just keep fishing and ignore everyone else. I see a lot of post from folks talking about what other fishermen are doing, I never look at anyone else when I’m fishing

@Jermination gave me a ned style head with a weedguard that looked like strips of bicycle brake cable in February and I still have it. Dragged it all through the Norris rocks and a few other places, it was pretty good. He did say a big fish broke the hook off it though
