Hello fellow fisherman and women!  My name is Jesse and I am from the small town of Coldwater, MI.  My wife and I have a two year old son named Sydney after his Great Grand Dad.  I have fished here and there all my life, mostly for pan fish.  After finding out our wee little one was born an outdoors man, we began to take him trailing and fishing every chance we get.  After a great day of pan fishing, my wife and I accidentally caught some nice large mouth with our little hook and bobber set ups (the largies must have been very hungry), we also caught some nice Rockies...we let little two year old Sydney reel in everything he possibly could.  Boy did his face light up and we had a really hard time getting him of the water and back home!  He loves to fish now and after all those largies and rockies, we caught a serious sickness for bass fishing.  However I did not know much about it.  After searching the web and YouTube, I came across this wonderful site.  Sydney still can't cast his little Spider-Man pole very well but he can reel in the small ones and he just loves it!  As do my wife and I.  We just shore fish and we have a nice size canoe, but I'm now saving to get a nice used fishing boat.  If it wasn't for these videos I found, I don't know if we would be able to have too much of an idea how to set up and rig for bass and it might not have been as enjoyable for my family!  I'm just so glad we were able to get our son into bass fishing at an early age, we think it will help him be a better person growing up and it's just a great thing for us in general.  We now fish almost everyday and learning and getting better everyday!

Well, that's it for now.  I'm new to the site and just wanted to introduce myself and a little background on what led me here.

Very cool!  Thanks guys.  This site truly is what it says.  I could spend hours here just reading some great material on tips and tricks, and I have already come across some nice bass catching stories.  I cant wait to get into some more, I only wish I found this site much sooner!

Welcome. Enjoyed your article, have fun.

Welcome Home! We're glad you're here!

Thanks again lunker hunters!  Glenn, last week I watched one of your vids on a split shot, or a mojo rig, went out and caught 6 nice bass in under 1 hour!  To be fair, the bass were pretty hungry and I found them under two big schools of baitfish.  But it worked out very well, so thanks!
