Hey everyone! I've been lurking around on the site for a month or two now, and thought I would introduce myself! Last summer during "free fishing" weekend, I got completely hooked on fishing. I didn't catch a thing, but I got what I thought were bites.. turns out it was just weeds! It didn't matter, it was enough to get me hooked. I fished the rest of last summer, and just moved to a new town with a HUGE lake. Problem is, I'm having trouble finding decent bank access sites. I overwhelmed myself last summer trying to learn how to fish everything at once-- this summer, I'm zoning in on just soft plastics. I caught my first bass of the year on a soft plastic yesterday! I'm still excited about it. It wasn't big, but it was big to me-- because I was thoroughly convinced I couldn't fish soft plastics, and it was the biggest fish I've caught yet.

Here's to starting to learn the ropes this summer! I'll probably ask a thousand questions. You all have already been an awesome resource for me, even though I haven't said a thang!

If anyone feels the need to teach a yuppie some new tricks in KY, message me!
