@12poundbass Miami vs Tennessee wasn't dull ?.......I detect sarcasm. Miami literally looked like a highschool team and " Snoop " Huntley couldn't put a football in a swimming pool. 👍

@12poundbass Bills will be fine. NE, Miami and the Jets all look like bottom feeders in AFC East thus far. Josh Allen is a top tier QB as well.

With that username your team won and lost last night 😅. Yes that was a demolition by Baltimore, wow.

Welcome to the forum Jason

Yes I get asked all the time by non-fishermam if I keep all my fish. Wife and I both love fish but I only keep a small percentage of them. By the way, Largemouth bass caught out of clean clear lakes are a delicacy so are spotted bass.

Several members on this site claimed September can be a very slow month. I paid mind to it as I fished quite a bit this month. Have yet to put more than 3 fish in the boat fishing 5-6 hrs. Hang in there.

Idk, it's a reaction bait, the fish don't have a lot time to inspect materials.

Was under the impression that Dak was the highest paid QB at 60 mil per year.

I think drop-shot would be a great way to start. I believe every worm I throw on a drop-shot is a flat side, mainly Robo and Zoom .

Yes still being the same calendar year is understandable. I've seen threads that exceeded 10 years resurrected 😄

Camera has been out for over a month and this looks like the only shooter on my property. One other 10 pt that's wider but needs another year.

Before I got my prescription sunglasses I kept several pairs of reading glasses on the boat. I couldn't even tie an over hand knot without some kind of visual aid.

Best way to prevent flats is stay away from Pennsylvania 😁......I know.

Not to derail the thread but we have lots of Heron and Loons in the Lakes I fish. I physically watch them eat their share of fish.

I don't believe Beavers eat fish as I don't believe Deer eat meat....... reports misrepresent. Beavers aren't predators and swift swimmers like otters......wood, bark is their food source.

A beaver hut is a guaranteed bass or two.

Never knew it was a thing until this thread. Never had and probably to late to add something else to remember 😉

I have no lack of fishing partners but still enjoy fishing alone if I can keep my mouth shut. Wife goes often with a book.

Got out in light rain today, no wind. Caught only 3 bass but lost a really good one on a Zara Spook. Did put another Snakehead in the live well though.

September has been brutal here for effort per bass. Fished yesterday for 5 hrs for 2 bass, embarrassing. Starting to not like September......oh 63 .

My expense is mainly fuel and wear and tear. I've got over 6000 miles of towing the boat in 2024 and have several more trips planned until deer season. I buy tackle in bulk so I'm good for a couple of years in that department.

It happens. I throw a ton of wacky worms on 1/16 VMC heads and where I get in trouble is trying to manage this technique in wind. Can usually save a deep hooked fish with wire cutters, cut off the barb and twist the hook out with long nose pliers. Both tools are a must. If the fish can't be saved it goes to the frying pan 🥘

I've never kept a log and many times forget my phone for pics, guess the excitement of fishing. 😂 I do keep a round about total in my head of catches and always remember what part of a lake is most productive. Love seeing fish reports of others catches.

Nothing surprising with Josh Jones. The guy puts huge fish in the boat consistently.
