My name is Chris and I have been watching bassresource's videos and using their tips. Very good videos and very helpful. I have been going to a local pond and haven't caught anything in 10+ trips. I decided to use my baitcaster I got a LONG time ago from someone that hated using it and wanted to throw it away. First trip before watching his videos was a nightmare and I almost did the same as the previous owner. After watching the casting and how to find bass videos I decided to try it again and try out the Texas rig. I landed 4 bass that were smaller, but I finally caught some. I missed 10+ bites from not knowing what I am doing. I didn't set the hook on 2-3 of those that I knew were a bite because of bird nesting and other inexperienced casting issues. I am so glad I found your videos. They have helped me out and they definitely WORK! I look forward to learning and eventually teaching my son how to effectively fish! Thanks for all the help.

Welcome aboard, Chris!

Welcome!

Welcome!!

Thanks guys. I am excited to get more into Bass fishing. I wanted to last year but didn't because of what others in my family wanted to do. I gave up on them and will be doing what I want to do.

Greetings Chris and Welcome to the forums

Thanks guys! 

Enjoy the Forums! Have you put new line on that baitcaster? Welcome, I will see ya around....

Yeah, I put some 12lb Spiderwire mono on it. It's something I had left over from another reel last October. I want to go to some braided line, but that will have to wait for some $$. 

That's good Chris, good, fresh line is important. Good luck getting you're braided line, post you're questions and share you're experiences in the Forums, once again, Welcome!

Welcome Home!

Thanks! Sorry, I am pretty busy right now, but that will change on the 5th. I went out another few times and didn't get so lucky. Got some really good bites, but I am still trying to learn how and when to set the hook with this Texas rig.
