  1. I love veggie pizza !!
  2. They grow em tough down here
  3. Andy Montgomery is hilarious They need a camera on him at all times
  4. ***checks OK craigslist for fishing gear***
  5. I'm watching just to see Lucas spin out. He's kinda keeping his cool compared to normal Lucas back in first and pretty steady.
  6. I've been on the shelf since the end of June I had an injury that I should have taken care of Now no fishing until the end of the month at least It sucks I've been a cranky SOB according to the wife
  7. Surprised by Jeff's response offering no explanation. At least when Luke Clausen was disqualified, he had a story about someone in line just offering up advice. MLF also stated Luke failed the polygraph but no mention of that with Jeff Sprague I think that is why they adjusted the rule to include : If any such information is unintentionally being received from a non-competitor, the MLF Bass Pro Tour angler must politely ask the non-competitor to cease from divulging the information. I hate only having a small part of the information.
  8. Half the guys that fish the Tuesday night wildcat at my home lake have FFS About 3/4 of those had side imaging and never learned how to use it Todd Faircloth and Kotaro Kiriyama used 2D sonar to video game fish for wins on Lake Erie The guys that put the time to learn it, in will get the most benefit from them. It's another skill that you can add to your bag of tricks. I have also heard anglers talk at length about how it has hurt their fishing. They waste a lot of time fishing for fish they can see but cant get to bite.

  10. Some guys enter and they are fishing for a check so if they blank day one or have a really small bag they wont even weigh them and pack up and head to the house It's only a 3 day tournament for the top 10 So if you skunk or have a small day one bag, you're probably not making the 10 cut Saves you gas in the boat and the extra couple nights staying at a hotel, air bnb or camping out
  11. You've got to long line them when trying to fish that deep. The problem is with that much line out it deadens the feel. You also run the risk of instantly being snagged. Or falling asleep because each cast is like ten minutes of barely turning the handle.
  12. No straight down the mouth. I've had to cut a couple hooks off of 12 inchers and always had enough space. My dad was worried the fish would swallow the other half of the hook with the barb so he clips his hemostats to the barbed end before cutting. I have cut a dozen hooks now and the barb keeps it from being swallowed in my experience I had a couple other cutters that were cheaper but they did not cut very easily.
  13. I also saw jerkbait, swimbait, ned rig and spinnerbait being used. I also like that they have to use some skill to land the fish. It's not 65 lb braid where they water ski the fish to the boat. I'm glad I can appreciate all aspects of the sport.
  14. My favorite summertime spot is 2 feet or less. There always food and there is always shade. water temps in the 90's
  15. Peanut butter?
  16. You could fish that in open water, along a sea wall, rip rap shoreline, down a bank, against a dock or walkway not every lake has weeds and I'm pretty sure the purpose of the lure is to catch fish
  17. I use these Knipex cutters and also have a Rapala cutter. I need 2 of everything because my organizational skills are lacking.
  18. I agree these are good. I fish around the marina all winter I get free a lot more with these from the cables than the moon eyes. But I got a bunch of moon eyes so I use them too.
  19. At the very beginning you can see a boat pulling it. They pulled it away from the other house boats and are headed towards the ramp. On the bright side, I'll have some new stuff to fish
  20. If he doesn't change the front hook to a red one , he'll never catch a fish [/sarcasm]
  21. They are putting in at a different marina this time too. Guys were talking that there is no where to get gas, so they wont even be able to make it up to where they were fishing last time.
  22. I use my cutters everytime now. I became pretty good at the thru the gill method. But now its 10 times faster. I cut the hook as far down the shank as I can. it pops out with my line, I grab the hook with the barb and it just slides out. fish is back in the water pretty freaking fast with no metal Hooks are cheap
  23. Not even sure I can post a tik toc video here But this was at the marina around the corner from me https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRrHqoCb/?k=1
  24. Classic berth is still given to the winner of each event as long as they fish all 3 tourneys in that division The cost of bass boats, electronics, trolling motors and almost 6 grand in entry fees killed the working mans dream along time ago.
