I work for us air. Yeah it's beautiful down there. My rods got there and back in one piece too, which knowing how some of us handle bags is surprising

So, I hit Underhill today. I saw a lot of pretty decent bass on beds, but they wouldn't bite. The largest maybe about 8 lbs. But I did catch a lot of smaller ones. Largest maybe 2 lbs. I'm going to hit ivanhoe and adair tomorrow.

Oh trust me, I will be hitting Toho in the future, but as I said before. This trip is literally costing me about $200 - $250 total. And I'm not renting a car, a cab would be insane there and back. But I'm definitely going to hit toho soon. This is going to be the first trip of many

A lot of people up here say that about chain pickerel, but I love catching them.

That was just a quick list. I'm open to suggestions if you know other good lakes or ponds

Gar sound fun. Any special techniques besides using steel leaders with them?

OH that's awesome! I was looking for something like that. We have all the lakes up here in Mass listed similar to that. And they've done fishing surveys "recently", they post their findings and what not. Thanks!

So, i've been looking on Google Earth for lakes in the general area where i'm staying with good shore access. I've come up with a few. Do any of these stand out to anyone? Minus the lakes already mentioned. Lake Adair Lake Highland Park Lake Lake Eola Rock Lake Lake Lorna Doone Clear Lake Lawne Lake *Lake Ivanhoe *Lake Underhill

The thing isx I'm not spending any real money on this trip. I fly for free, and get great deals on hotels. The whole trip including food will probably cost a total of $200 to $250

Glenn, holy **** I never took that into consideration. That's not really on my list of dangers when fishing up here.

As of right now, my plan is to fish from the shore only. I haven't really taken the time to look up any guide service. I'm sure this trip will be one of many though. But I would like to catch a monster while I'm down there. Maybe I'll take a look at a few guides

Thanks everyone :-) I'm going down there April 6-8, I'll be giving all of those places a shot I'm sure.

What do you recommend throwing? Up here I usually throw jigs, but I've never fished anywhere south of cape cod lol

I suppose I should have added I'll be staying for 2 days, not just flying in, fishing and flying home. I'm just not sure where I'm staying just yet

That's what I've been doing. But it's hard to tell on the map if it'll be good, and fairly easily accessible to fish from shore
