5 Dollar Fishing Game

Cool man!

Thanks CajunFlipper. Sounds like a plan to me. Going to be 80° and sunny here in North Carolina the whole week. :-)

Awesome! Coats has a few good ponds. :-)

I just clicked on the "bass fishing for beginners" link. There were dozens of sub links in there. They answered all of my questions and more. I feel like an expert LOL. Thank you for your help and direction where to go. Joe

I hope I have this posted in the right thread section. :-) Here goes. Here in Raleigh NC (central nc) I know many people fish all of the time. There is a saying around my fishing friends at church "there is no such thing as bad fishing conditions with weather or time of year, only bad lure choices". I am a BASS member and subscribe to their magazine. But wanted to get some real angler advice info here too. With this in mind I was wondering some basic bass questions: 1.) What exactly does spawn mean? 2.) When does spawn happen? 3.) What are the "best" bass fishing months in this part of NC? 4.) Where are the fish in "water depth" for cold and warm days? 5.) Best lure color/type to use on cloudy or sunny days? Thank you all for your patience with my "newbie" questions. I just started fishing January of this year. and love it. Being on the boat with family is great fishing. Just need to know what to throw and when. - Joe

Welcome! Nice story man. Fishing is great and is a life long sport. Happy casting! :-)

Where in NC do you live?

I live in Fuquay Varina. About 15 miles south of Raleigh. :-)

My name is Joe from NC. I am 28 and started fishing this year for a new years resolution. My wife and our 5 year old daughter all bass fish too. I am an active BASS member also and am excited to be on the site with people who love getting on the water as much as me to do some good fishing. :-) - Joe
