  2. See all the chaos that comes from not having a scale?? Remember this and pass it on to everyone that you know or are even acquainted with, even if they don't fish. Save up from your weekly allowance, and buy a battery operated scale. You had a nice fish and then ruined it by slapping an 8 on it.

  8. I think I'll hide a Senko in the mashed potatos this year. That should cause quite a stir.

  13. Before the shimano posse gets in here and tells you to save your money and by citca curado chronarch , i will tell ya i HIGHLY recommend the higher end pflueger line. I have a president bc and absolutely love it! Also have 3 asaro bc and the perform perfectly. I would not hesitate to by another pflueger reel especially the patriarch.

  14. That is one of those deals if you think it makes a difference, it does. If you think it doesn't make any difference, it doesn't. That goes for lure colors, fishing line types and colors, scents, etc.

  15. It always jumps to the 8 pound mark. Why not 6? Shoot why not a beautiful 5 pounder? What is so wrong with calling a big bass a 5? Where is the respect? The Decency? Fish work a lifetime in many parts of the country to hit 6 and then are insulted because they are just not big enough to be the exaggerated weight. Those poor guys need a support group. They will never be good enough and you wonder why bigger bass don't move too much, only eat at night time away from people making fun of them, are most likely depressed, have a difficult time getting the energy to leave their bed and end up becoming bullies on smaller fish. Until we change as a society of fisherman, this problem of depression and bullying will not change with the 5-6 pound bass. Your fish is waaaaaaaay too skinny and you are waaaaaaay too small of person to even give it the big proportions. Nice catch, but don't insult someone when they give you an honest weight. Please never make the mistake again. Let's change one fisherman at a time, world peace will follow.

  16. Shimmy, the res is truly one of my favorite places to fish and one that I have put a lot of time and effort into much like your beaver dam exploits. I have a more difficult time showing people the "spots on spots" on the res because in this area of NOVA, people wil literally dessimate an area known to have a large group of good fish! Burke lake is another place that got a lot of my attention when I got my first fishing vessel, the bass pro shops bantam 3X plastic pontoon! But back to the original question/mental approach that nitro has brought forth. I think in the last 5 years that I have been fishing, I have realized that if you are not keeping up or adapting to how the fish change from season to season, you are going to suffer with poor outings and disappointing results. The biggest changes I have made have been to concentrate on making good decisions while on the water. When to move what to throw and what I need to do to get the results I think should be resonable for that day of fishing. At times, we all need to take a step back and analyze how we approach fishing certain bodies of water and understand "we have a limited amount of time on the water, how can I make the most of it!" I have also had many much better anglers than I help me learn this great passion and I would be lying if I told you I figured all of these things out on my own!! I try to learn a little bit on each outing and never go home feeling beat or bettered by that little green trout!!

  17. Really? I'm on TW website as of 8:40pm Central time and it doesn't say anything about 20% off? Actually I'm on this site 10+ times a day which cannot be normal for a human.

  18. Hey partner, yeh there are a lot that feel our pain. Especially those who do not fish the potomac or occoquan. Even then, the Occoquan can be nasty if you don't know what your doing from what i hear. Quanjig has put his time on it and i think he is a bundle of knowledge for anyone that wants to learn that place. As for Beaverdam, I have filmed many of my outings out there the past two years (even though this is my 4th year fishing it-finally got a kodak playsport 2 yrs ago). I have caught 50+ fish over 4 pounds (yes i weigh them-which will be on film as well) on the Bdam the last 2 years and am putting a collection of the best footage with all of the spots exposed, boat positioning, approaches, and the lures being used and will post online on the Tube for people who struggle out there. I am not saying that i am "the" expert out there but i have been fortunate enough to learn a lot out there and want to share with the good fellas like you how to catch the 4+ bass almost everytime out there. I have failed way too many times and lost a lot of self-esteem in the process but i believe after people watch the video, they will enjoy it and hopefully learn whatever they may not know. Caught several 23+ inches out there as well and have some good footage of some of them and the spots. Would probably be suicide to post the video now since i will still be here for another year given how small the reservoir is but my goal is to give other people the honey whole experience by watching the video. When i got here, i wanted so badly for someone to just take me out and share some hot spots or help me get onto some good fishing since i knew little about the lakes around me and did not have a boat at the time. Two years ago, i decided that i wanted someone in my shoes to have the opportunity to have a honey hole experience and my video will probably make a lot of people happy while ticking off the few who know the lake pretty well. Don't really care. Given the high amounts of 4 plus fish in this lake, i think the lake will be just fine. Another thing is for sure though, this lake can beat the crap out of you if you don't know where you are going, hence the little pressure it gets. Furthermore, every time i feel like i know the lake i learn another spot and feel like an idiot once again. Anywho, i'll post the video first on this section and throw out a bone to whoever is interested.

  19. Most "8lb bass" that aren't weighed would come in at around 5 lbs. I would guess that's about right. Nice fish!

  20. I think this little bit of information is perhaps more important than your whole write up (which was great by the way). Shoot, i only fish a 300ish acre lake (Beaverdam) when i have the time and have made serious new discoveries there a few months ago that i did not know in the four years i have bombarded this reservoir. Despite using my depth finder (crappy one), just experimenting with different areas and lures has made a bigger difference in my fishing than logically trying to understand the fish at times. These northern VA lakes are brutal and i have been eating humble pie for the past 4 years. Still tastes terrible. But back to your point, these fish are evolving and you have to do something different, and that "different" thing does not have to always make sense.

  21. Nice outing for the kinder. For 2 times the price a Mepps spinner will last 10 times longer and spin much better.

  22. The great teacher once said, So I say it is the right thing to let another fisherman borrow some space, and if it is necessary, to find a new place to fish. Quote is from Matthew 5:38.
