  1. I've got 3 of them and they are awesome reels for the price.
  2. Some Lake Conroe Donkeys. Bro in law. Some Lake Conroe Donkeys continued
  3. Met Zona at the expo. He could not have been any nicer. Not only to myself but to any fan who approached him. Really enjoyed his coverage of the classic as well.
  4. Not sure how much time you spend fishing each time out? But the more time you can spend fishing the better off you'll be both in the short and longer term. Always wear a good pair of polarized sunglasses so you can see fish. When it comes to bank fishing, I like to find places that are as accessible from the bank as possible. Often times the more water I can cover the better. Some fishing holes just lend themselves better to bank fishing than others. Try and find those spots.
  5. Good for you. Getting bigger and stronger will help you in every aspect of life. Eat big, lift big, and become a barbarian.
  6. If I don't use something with minimum 20% deet and spray myself real good with it, I will get ticks at some of the places I fish. I don't leave home without repellent when I go to those spots. It seems to do the job. I check myself good when I get home to. If you do have a tick on you carrying LD, the faster you get it off you the better the chances are you don't get sick.
  7. Nice stripers! They give you a heck of a fight
  8. I was just there end of March and the temps were pretty nice. Cool in the mornings and evenings but 60's and 70s through the day. It was super windy though and that lake was a giant soup bowl. I have family who lives on that lake and there is no way I am missing this.
  9. Yup right now. I caught the bass in my avi night fishing last week
  10. I hit a couple golf course ponds last week and it sounds like we had a similar type of day. Nothing big, but one flapper after another. Sure is fun ain't it!
  11. My sister and bro law flew in for the holiday so we all did some fishing. My bro law was most interested in trying to catch a salmon because he never has had an opportunity to fish for them. So we went with medium shiners and a split shot rig. My sister caught this salmon not long after we got set up. She had a huge birds nest and after it all got cleaned up it turns out a fish was on the line. The legend of the salmon lives! This bass inhaled the hook. A littler work but we got it out no problem and the fish was on its way good to go Tyler caught his first pickerel ever. They don't have these where he is from. It started squirming and he threw it back in lol We put some weight on plenty of pickerel on this day. They were taking shiners left and right The legend lives
  12. Exactly. I usually bring a casting combo and spinning combo to spots like that and some spots the casting combo works best. Other spots the spinning combo works best. But to just try to use the casting combo for the entire day in spots like that is an exercise in futility.
  13. My routine is simple and much like others who posted theirs. I keep everything on my person I may need. I always have hookouts, and if it is an instance where I can't remove the hook or hooks quickly and easily by hand, they can. When I get the fish close enough I grab it or net it, remove the hook, snap a pic or two and back it goes. It is a bang bang process and I almost always fast draw mcgraw it. If you stay prepared and have a routine, each fish you catch you can work on making the whole process smoother and easier. If you do that then in no time you'll have it down so you can do what you gotta do and still have that fish back in the water so fast that it doesn't know what hit it.
  14. Caught this at a pond I have only fished a few times. It runs right along a quarry I fish and it was very windy and I was having a tough go of it at the quarry. I figured I would jump over to the pond for a few which was much calmer. Caught this on a wacky rigged salty sinker.
  15. This series was sickening. The mets did just enough to lose in 3 of their 4 losses. In world series that have gone 5 games, no team has had a lead in the 8th inning or later in 3 of the 4 games they lost. Leave it to my Ny Mutts to be the first. This was about as brutal as it gets. Being owned by the braves in the 90s and some of those gut wrenching losses. The art howe era. Getting beat in 5 by the stinken yankees in 2000 it couldn't get any worse if you are a mets fan in the tri state area. Then the 2006 mets. That game 7 loss was the most painful of my life. I was a broken man after that game. Then 07 and 08 watching this team gag it up in historical fashion. You can only take so much pain and abuse from your sports team. I bleed orange and blue but this team has worn me out. I knew the mets had weaknesses and if their were any teams who could expose them I knew it was the pirates or royals. But our pitching got so hot I actually thought just maybe they could overcome all our issues. Overcome the fact that TDA with his noodle arm throws the ball like mackey sasser. That every walk and single is a double and if they want a triple! The fact that our infield D can be atrocious at times. Murphy with his brain cramps, wright with his rag arm, wilmer who has limited range. And in this series we saw it all. Outside of our pitching and grandy man, we saw the pre trade deadline mutts. Collins was horrendous in this series. He made decisions that mets fans will never be able to comprehend. Just look at the way chris young was used in game 1. That is managing to win. Then look how familia was used and that is managing to lose. I could go on and on. And the royals made plenty of mistakes. But the types of teams they are, their is more room for error for the royals.
  16. Another mixed bag. Past couple of months the pickerel bite has been on and the bass bite has been slow for me, so I have been throwing cranks and spinners at the pickerel. Got this one on a yellow perch shad shallow This one kept following the shad shallow but would not hit it. I changed to a booyah super shad spinner and first cast it hit it like a run away freight train. Wet my hands, got a pic and back it went. caught my first salmon. I was fishing for bass but the salmon schools are very active right now and shallow. I was in the right place right time. This one was feeding aggressively at the surface and I cast into the ruckus and it went right after it. Super cool fish. For over a month I have not caught many bass and any I have caught have been small. But fun! This is my biggest bass in over a month. The bite seems to be picking up again. Lots of follows on this day but none would commit. Finally caught this on a huckleberry salty sinker wacky rigged.
  17. thanks bro! I am just glad I haven't dropped my phone in a lake yet lol Several buddies I have fished with this year have I have 12lb mist green yo-zuri hybrid on that one
  18. Pic isn't the most spectacular but that is it nonetheless. I was bass fishing and it was a very calm sunny day and the water is very clear. I could see the flash of their belly a ways out and then one hit the surface to feed a ways out there and I cast right at it. After a few jerks and a pause I saw the silver flash hit my lure and my line took off and I knew I had one. It was one of the coolest fishing moments for me to have an opportunity to catch a beautiful fish like that. I'll never forget it
  19. Those are some big ole yellow perch right there! Very nice
  20. Speaking of stats..I saw a stat that showed the cubs pitchers have thrown 1 pitch over 95mph in this series and the mets pitchers have thrown something like 180 over 95mph. That is a crazy statistic. This year has been a most improbable run for the mets. I never expected to be up 3-0 on the cubs. But we still need one more and hopefully Matz can go out there tonight and keep this very potent young cubs line up in check just one more time.
  21. boostr that is round valley reservoir. Not sure if you have ever been out there? If you have not been and if you ever check it out, look up spruce run reservoir as well. It is right around the corner from round valley.
  22. Some fish from the last few times out and a bit of a mixed bag Caught these at a local pond. Always fun fishing at this little gem This pond donkey my sis caught came from the same pond One of the bigger pickerel I have ever caught. caught this on a swimbait which these things always hit. I love catching pickerel but I have had more bite offs this year than I ever remember. So it was nice to land this fish. Hook came right out and got this thing right back on its way. Small but fun nonetheless A couple pretty little things
  23. Not sure what that mark on the fish is? maybe a bird got it or something. Didn't seem to affect the fight in the fish. It took us straight into all kinds of heavy weeds. I saw surface activity and cast right into it and this fish hit the super fluke like a run away freight train Caught this at my fav pond This was a donkey
  24. Had the pleasure of fishing with my bro in law Tyler. That is his first NJ LM bass. Set the hook so hard on that poor little guy he fell down.lol He lives in Texas and this was the first time I got to do some fishing with him and it was a treat. That guy has forgot more about bass fishing than I know and I am a better angler for just the few days I got to fish with him. Can't wait to do it again! That is a donkey even by Texas standards
