Here in Jacksonville the past two mornings from 6:30 to 8:30 they have been killing my Black Ribbit Frog. Yesterday I managed 9 and this morning I pulled in another 7 including a nice 4lb not long enough to replace my lowest 19". Both days I hooked a big one the one today was in the range of 6 but I didn't hook it right and lost it about 10 feet in front of me Between the two days I can't even count the amount of hook sets I have missed, like I said I have been exclusively using my top water frog. Lou still not havin luck with the baitcast lol all this fishing was done with my spinning while my baitcast lay next to me in a birds nest lol. I hope to get the hang of it eventually

Some nice fish there

6lbs 10oz on a 6'9" St Croix Mojo Bass rod I forget what I was using to catch it probably a spinner bait, jig, or crank

That's awesome man. My son always is interested in whatever Im watching usually football, basketball, and fishing shows. I hope he turns into a little fisherman like your son is at that age

I can't watch the video it says it's set to private But my son is 13 months I hope when he's your sons age he gets the fever

I'm going to keep it in my car with my othe rods and practice from time to time. It's a lot easier like you said when someone is with you and shows you. When you get the hang if it we can hit up a few ponds and you can show me if I don't get it down by then

I have an abu Garcia revo but I never use it cuz I can't get the hang of the baitcast. I need someone to show me the ropes all my buddies I fish with use spinning. I don't understand the whole setting your braking system. I saw a video where he told me to flip every other switch, so I did that. But I don't understand how to adjust it to each lure

Nice fish

Went to the golf course today and got 9 and missed a bunch on the hookset. 19" (3) 17" (2) 16" and the others didn't bother to measure. I was using a black with red flake ribbit frog. I was talking to this golfer who came up to me I had my frog sitting about 2 feet off shore for a good 3 minutes. I turn around frog bounces and I see a huge wave come towards it as I take it out the water then it spun around and swam off I was bigger than what I caught this morning. It probably was watching it the whole time bass are extremely patient when they want to be, the second it moved again it made the decision to eat it.

Nice combo what did u catch it on? Craw type bait

FL is the ultimate freshwater fish state! Lake Okechobee was created by god as a bass heaven

I don't eat bass but if I do I prefer a knife an fork.... I am the most interesting fishermen in the world

I have never seen a bass with red eyes

Live minnows by far catch more bass BUT Artificial lures IMO give me a sense of accomplishment that's why I prefer fishing that way

How deep was the fish caught? 4 feet Did the lure contain rattles or have hinges? No Was the lure a natural color (brown, green) or was it an unnatural color (chartreuse, orange)? Natural If possible, what moon phase was your PB caught during? Not sure

I feel for you but since you are beating me in length I think, I can't feel that bad lol

Yea man I can't wait to catch me some of them south FL monster spawn fish

That's why you will see me at your door Lou with my fishing gear in the spring for a nice fishing weekend lol

Nice fish Your a soldier for fishing with the swim bait in your skin for 3 hours... DEDICATION

I generally try to find ponds in residential communities, parks, office complexes, and golf courses that have been there for many years at least 10. MCS put me onto that last year me and czar fish with this guy who has access to Orange Park Country Club and those ponds have been there since the 70's the guy was saying. Only problem is we can only go when he has time since its restricted access. But he has caught tons of fish over 6lbs and 15 that exceed 10lbs all this year!! Orange park has some ponds that are ancient and hold some monster fish. He was showing me pics of fish he caught around Orange Park and it makes the fish I think are big that I caught look like guppies lol.

You could just google them in whatever area you are located. Then call them or go and ask permission to fish. Some of the biggest fish are located in golf course ponds they must eat the golf balls.

Yea man I pray I run into that dorky wanna be cop. It's going to be hard taking him serious especially if he tries to take my picture lol. If e gave you the benefit of the doubt then he will prob just call the real police on me ha. I was fishing the other day and someone called the cops since it was private property. The cop approached me and was really cool about it, he even told me about spots that were close that he has seen people fish. It seems like rent a cops take their job WAYYY more seriously than the real ones, who have more important things to deal with than to harass people who are fishing not bothering anyone

4lbs

Struck out on the big one but managed to get 3 nice size two 17" and one 18" and some dinks. I hit up the law school lake this morning ran into the cool security guard he just waved to me and kept it moving, I missed a nice fat one wasn't hooked right, and pulled in 4 decent ones didn't think they would replace my lowest 19" so I didn't bother measuring them Caught them all last night using a swimming shad same kind I hook the monster on, not sure what brand they are though originally thought Storm but they aren't This morning I got 3 of them on a white ribbit frog and missed the biggest one and caught the other one on a KVD 1.5 crank bait in crawfish color

Round 2 I am on my way back to the scene of the crime
