Welcome to Bass Resource!

I mainly use an upgraded Macbook Pro built in 2012 or iPhone 11, I have a Chromebook as well that does good just for browsing.

I kayak fish 98% of the time and my worst habit is fishing in the same area far too long without getting any bites. I grew up with my grandpa bank fishing and he only used live bait. We would cast out with a bobber and just let it sit indefinitely. I guess this made me a natural finesse angler now. My kayak is pedal-driven so I really need to get into the habit of covering more water and casting much, much more.

Happy Birthday!

I know a lot of people and would consider them acquaintances but I don't have friends. Me almost getting killed last May at work only solidified that as I literally only had my parents come visit me a few times when I got out of ICU and home. All in I worked there 13 1/2 yrs and the company has only been there a little over 14.

This is all I caught today on a black/blue jig, better than a skunk and I found around $40 in lures so not bad.

Welcome to Bass Resource!

All found today,the top 3 were on a brush pile that got washed there a couple months ago due to rain. Whopper Plopper, Googan Squad Revolver and a 6th Sense Crush.The bottom is a Bagley Top Gun #5 and is discontinued, it was easily plucked from a tree. The Whopper Plopper is the 4th Ive found this year.

I have never been very accurate at casting especially now after my stroke. I keep on trying though and get it done enough to catch some fish and Im ok with that.

I grew up in Warren Co not far from Center Hill, Warren Co has the Collins and great Musky fishing. Ive never fished Percy but have friends who do,Im hoping to make it to Couchville this year.

Anything I have goes in floor of kayak,I always try to pick up trash I see as I go.I especially try to get line thats in tangled in trees, I find plenty of lures that way plus it dont get caught on any wildlife.

They were both on Kayak Bass Nations weekly podcast last night.

Bait Monkey just whispered in my ear to tell you to buy both and in every available color!

For me its a type of therapy, gets me in and close to nature. It gets me into places most boats would dare to go. The biggest reason I started kayaking and kayak fishing 5 years ago was for the exercise. I fell in love with kayak fishing as soon as I landed my 1st fish though and hope to enjoy it for many more years.

Im still using the discontinued Carlisle Predator I bought on clearance 4+ yrs ago. Its been great but if/when it breaks Ill get a Bending Branches.

Yes Sir, Im around 12 miles from there. We have a 22 acre lake in Portland but its way over fished so I dont even bother.

I rarely have any hard baits tied on anymore, Im not confident enough with them to be productive.

I took the kayak out to my local lake this morning and landed this 17"er on a wacky rigged black/blue Creme worm. Its now the biggest fish Ive caught this year, still looking for a 20"+ though. I fixed my Macbook over the weekend and can now edit videos again but forgot my GoPro, even after charging the external battery!

I guess Im really weird, you couldnt pay me to eat an egg but Ill eat stuff eggs are in such as cake!

I wear progressives which always cost more but I literally just got a pair of polarized RX from Zenni to try that was $105 to my door. I also have bought from eyebuydirect, they have Ray-ban and Oakley. I can get Oakley progressive polarized for around $185 shipped. I dont have eye insurance so I pay straight up.
