I'm curious to see when some of you guys got your kids into bass fishing. I've taken my son bluegill and crappie fishing before and he keeps telling me he wants to land a "hog". Also, did you start them off on a spin cast reel? or go straight into spinning gear?

I love this. I am the same way. I was raised flipping plastics then self taught myself reaction style lures. I'm focusing on flipping and pitching jigs during this spawn season. My main focus is on slowing down. I fish too fast and give up on areas too quickly. I'm entering my first tournament in April. I plan on fishing 3 or 4 tournaments this year.

Mine is from Amazon. The hole was just over an inch. I used an inch and filed it down to fit. Yes but be sure if you decide to go with a non go pro alternative that you charge the go pro with a 1 amp outlet. I've read that the 2.1 amp will damage the batteries.

Just an update. Installed a dual USB port. One port at 1 amp for my gopro. One port at 2.1 for smartphones. The charging speed is pretty good. Glad I did this.

Since I'm cheap I'm thinking of doing something like this:

I typically have my gopro on my head or chest. Then I have my DSLR on a tripod. I use the videos for learning from my own mistakes. I may think I'm fishing slow but when I go back to the video i'm fishing way faster than I wanted to be. Also, when my son hooks a good one I want to be able to have proud dad moments to show off.

Awesome man. I was born and raised in Shreveport. I'm up here in Benton now though

I'd look for other signs of wildlife. Are there birds that hang around? Frogs? Snakes? If the river feeds into the pond there should be bass and other species there. To locate them find some cover to fish around or take some live bait and make sure there are smaller baitfish in the area.

Do you remember which one you got? Could you post a link. I would like it to be waterproof.

Hey yall, I'm looking to install a usb port on my bass tracker. Has anyone ever done this or maybe hardwired something? Thanks!

Hey yall, New to the site. Heard about it from watching Youtube. Looking forward to learning from some everyone and hopefully I can kick in some info as well! Be good and rip those lips! PB: 6lb 5oz but my son swears it was 15!!!
