Hello,

Mid 50's fella that left the sport for about 11 years to concentrate on my family, fishing was taking up all my time.  Sold my boat, most of my lures and gear.  Then an opportunity came around that was too good to pass up.  My wife told me about it, and we talked it over.  I told her, "you sure your good with this because you know how I was last time I had a fishing boat."  She said, "Go for it."  So I did.

 

I got back into fishing by getting my hands on a 2003 Tracker Pro Deep V that needed repair.  I replaced all the wood and carpeting, fixed some electrical and some other stuff. 

 

When I stopped fishing I was a beast.  Then my first couple of months back on the water... wow did I suck.  Its like I forgot how to use a bait caster... which I guess I did.  I was not catching fish at the same rate that I did when I stopped.  I know now I have to change things up, I get stubborn and stick on the same thing way too long. 

 

I am here to learn and become better bass angler.

Hello @JimDallas from Northern California! Welcome to Bass Resource and the Forums 

Hi from the Sunshine State of Fl, I had fun fixing up my boat. Not as much fun as fishing out of it but, close.
