I used the Little George some but had lots of problems with them. Often the spinner didnt seem to spin on the lift, at least I couldnt feel it . They snagged often . I had to tie on a barrel swivel to keep the line from twisting . Caught some fish with it but not enough to put up with the aggravation.

Some years back there was a hot spinnerbait bite going in the spring just like every spring . After a few weeks the bass weaned off spinnerbaits . Still, everybody were throwing these bright chartreuse lures . I switched to slightly smaller blades and a duller bait-fish colored skirts and the bass responded positively . Been doing so ever since . Still use the bright lures early in the season.

I watched a lot of Youtube videos and they all claim it is really good stuff , extremely high in nitrogen . The pot growers really like it.

Changed my mind . I have five gallons of guano . Dont know how I'm going to apply it yet .

I dont pay that much attention to what lures they are recommending. All those configurations of spinnerbaits for example . Dont need a bunch willows, Colorados, Indianas , gold , copper , silver painted... I have my favorites. I just need to present them to the most bass as efficiently as possible. That is where most Youtubers fail. I much prefer to watch someone discus how to approach and fish a dock then some yahoo explaining why I need a multitude of spinnerbait combinations.

Thoughts on strategy . If there is someone highly picked like Bryan New inside of bucket E at almost 70%, do you think its smart to shy away from that pick for someone else in hopes of finishing ahead of the 70% or go ahead and pick him and if he stinks, then it doesnt hurt that bad because he stunk for 70% .

Spring my top baits for big bass are jig n pork, I dont have pork right now . spinnerbait . Bomber Long A and Bomber Long A with tail prop .

Larew Salt Craws have always been the top producing craw for me . Wal-Mart use to sell a Renegade craw and smallmouths devoured those things.

I had it before the age 50. Sometimes fishing has to be put in hold to deal with life . Sorry about your Mother.

Imagine being in an accident and they see your Fruit of the Looms in the emergency room . Sheesh! The horror.

He wears flannel too .

You were in good shape after day two . I made it over 50 percent . Good thing a lot of people dont participate every event or I would never see 50 percent. Lake Murray picks are in . I'm going with the Drew's, a New , Scott and a Brandon . Brandons know how to fish .

I hardly ever see bass beds in the dirty waters I frequent . I'm fishing for largemouths and just go junk fishing shallow . Last year I caught a few spotted bass on an Ozark reservoir from beds with a tube but I had a difficult time getting them to strike .

Swindle just said he could have caught a limit but he was fishing for larger bass to win . Thats a good strategy but you cant win if not fishing on day three .

I dont drag baits often enough, most always I'm lifting. Caught a limit of pre spawn bass dragging a lizard in a tournament once while my co-angler blanked.

One rod only. I like to be mobile .

I get the back .

Not very long . I'd run out of terminal tackle quickly . Spinnerbaits , buzzbaits , crankbaits , top-waters ... I have a life time supply.

Oh' I didnt read it right . You fish by the landslides,?

You know them better than me. When I see a bluff I turn my back to it and look at the other bank. There are no spots and very few smallies here so maybe thats the reason.

Yes . I dont have much success fishing bluffs . Maybe I'm doing it wrong.

Land with a small house that is liveable when the power goes out and a lot of ammo.

One that comes to mind was in autumn and I found bass in the back of a creek stacked up in the remains of a silted in creek channel . I caught maybe 70 bass in that hole with a square bill crankbait . They were still biting when I left . No big ones but it was almost every cast.

Several times.
