Local pond night monster on my radar.
Beavers don't hunt Bluegill😀. Dark + Boulder splash = Beaver

Split ring vs snaps
VMC Doulock on the three listed baits. My big hard swimbaits get Decoy snaps that are never unsnapped once in place.

Winterizing in August
Those fish you'll miss chasing will be bigger and waiting on you, once you've recovered. I was gonna offer to keep fresh gas in your boat but I'm in Ga..😁

Strange catfish baits...
Chicken breast marinated in Folgers Instant coffee, no need to add water. It'll look like strips of beef jerky.

Do you too ever reach a state where you're happy to simply be on the water?
Not really, I'm typically hyper focused on catching fish. The next deep rock pile, lay down, ditch, point, stump, grass bed, has a big girl waiting on me. Plus the only semi - comfortable spot on my boat is my lean to seat on the front deck. I do relax for 8 - 14 seconds while getting my Sunrise pics.

Tomato sandwich
Yes, with some Duke's mayo, a heavy shake or 3 of black pepper, and regular Lay's chips.

Jerkbaits other than megabass
Yes to all listed above. My Shadow Raps are my #1 producer, even over the MB 110s.

Hello everyone!
Hello and welcome to the forum.

Do you look at the fish you catch?
I've taken a pic of every fish I've caught for the last 9 years, no matter the size or species. I'm fishing on borrowed time with my back and everyone will be more special when I'm not able to fish. It also helps me figure out on what, when, and where I caught them last year.

How many rods and Whats on them?
Pond - 2 rods - casting 7' medium/heavy fast and a spinning 7' Medium Fast. Back seater(rarely)- 5 rods - spinning 7' Medium fast up to a casting heavy Fast jig or frog rod depending on the body of water. My boat - 12 - 20 rods from 6'8" medium light spinning to an 8' extra heavy swimbait. Lure selection is season but a Super Fluke, finesse jig, Ned, a Showers Blows, and jigging spoon are almost always tied on.

What pliers do you use?
I use Rapala aluminum needle nose with steel jaw inserts and a carbide cutter that are 12 or 13 years old. They were $40, but they're not rusted and work like new.

Paris Olympics
We watch the air rifle, archery, swimming, and women's gymnastics. My wife was an Elite level gymnast so I get educated about every twist & flip every 4 years.

Oh man! Can you imagine one of these babies strapped on the back of your boat?
Yes. But I may have to move my 3 batteries and the gas tank to the front to keep my 1448 jon from sinking. She'd be blistering fast for a couple minutes with my 6 gallon tank.😆

boat is totaled
Lost your boat, that's aweful. That's as bad as losing your favorite wife. 😁 Seriously, Glad you weren't out there during the weather. The bait Monkey is salivating.
