I heard that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over & over but expecting different results . . . . .

 

But then I thought - isn't that the very essence of bass fishing ?

Oh now that was funny. I appreciate good humor! We need to have a beer some day. Maybe in Mexico, my friend.

Oh go ahead - Twist My arm.

But first I'll prove to you and the rest of the Mexico Bass Contingent that Virginia has beasties in her waters!!!

 

Consider the arm twisted.

Sounds good - and now that you're learned how to make them jump all over the lake, perhaps you could coax a few into the net for a brief photo op . . . .

You know how to make a guy feel better about his mishaps with big bass, don't you. HA! <wags finger> I'll show you! </wags finger>

 

My wife might will make me wait for a Mexico bassresource trip until all our boys are out of the house. That's quite a few years from now...perhaps a lottery win?

Take a file to that hook.  

^^ Amazing how helpful this can be. Moving to a MH rod like others have said probably will help you out. But sharpening the hook would be the first, and second thing I would do.

Fishing's fishing where ever we do it -  and it's all good ~ as long as we get to do it. 

 

And if bassing south of the border is in that cards for you, I hope I'm there too.

And with that, I bid you a good night! May our paths cross some day on the water!

I think if I go out before I get a MH rod, I'll make sure to give a few extra HOOO-AH hooksets to drive that puppy home moreso than I would ever do. And sharpening the hook an extra bit wouldn't be a bad idea, either.
