fast moving rocky stream baits??
Cant beat a curly tail grub or a inline spinner. Atleast not in the rivers I have fished

Favorite Pocket 9mm?
I had a ruger lc9 and really liked it. Also had a lc9s and didn't like it as much. It's the same gun but no safety.

A True Fish Tale!
About ten years ago I was trout fishing a small lake with my dad. The lake is catch and release only for bass so it has some big ones. They were on beds and he was reeling in a small stock trout and a bass grabbed it right off the bank. Stripped some line out then let go. Good story thanks for sharing.

Tell Me About Your First Tournament!
I fished my first tournament this past Friday night. A 6pm to midnight open tournament they hold weekly. Only 16 boats entered. I had 6 pounds by 7pm and thought I was in business. Couldn't catch another keeper the rest of the night. It was a slow night for everyone though. Winning weight was only 10 3/4 pounds. He also had big largemouth and big smallmouth too. Definitely fun and I see more in my future.

Cast right/reel right...finally something that makes sense!
I switch my spinning reels and reel them with my right hand to. It's just always been more comfortable to me to hold the rod in my left hand and reel with my right whether it's a spinning rod or a bait caster.

Jigs
Here I see the only one I've taken a picture of so far. It's a green pumpkin and I believe the other color is candy craw.

When your buddy is having a rough day and you're not...
Whatever you do don't ask them if they want to reel one in after you hook it.

Definitely al Linder or hank Parker.

My lake is tough.
Try a drop shot with a robo worm on it. This is my go to when it gets tough. Then slow it way down and like others have said the ones you can't see are a lot easier to catch.

Hello fellow fisherpeople
Hello and welcome.

Is it time to find a new spot?
Yep warm up the frying pan and bring some home for dinner. If you put the crappie in check the bass may be able to make a comeback.

Dropping Brush Piles
Wait until the end of December and use Christmas trees. The dnr used to do that in a few local lakes here but I don't think they do anymore.

New boat now new problems
What about just getting a good cover for it for now. Then building a carport or adding on to your garage?

Shallow Pond Tips
If your there early try some topwater since it's so shallow. If that doesn't work try a drop shot.
