  1. Largemouth there are very tough. I’ve caught some monsters there but only a couple. Jobs cove is a good place to start. If you have a lot of sun fish docks and if it’s overcast throw a top water or spinnerbait. But I’d personally go for smallmouth there. If so like NH bull said the lighthouse is a good place but yes it’s windy, but make the wind your friend and listen to it. Wind blown points often produce well due to it pushing smelt up on them. Any kind transition areas are a good place to pick up a few. But it’s a very tough lake this time of year. Best of luck
  2. Good evening guys. I spent all weekend trying to figure out Squam Lake. Caught a ton of fish but only had a few keepers but the were basically fry. I am having trouble finding the bigger smallies here. I feel like I’m looking in the wrong direction. I’ve been targeting offshore structure. Mainly the countless reefs that lake holds and I’ve been fishing in 25 fow due to the thermocline being right there. But unfortunately I haven’t picked up any good keepers. Am I missing something to the puzzle here. I’d imagine they would be deep but am I not going deep enough? Or am I fishing the wrong type of structure? Any help to point me in the right direction is much appreciated
  3. You must be fishing apart of NEBA. I will be seeing ya there! I usually do pretty well but they have been doing weed kills the past few years that seem to be screwing things up
  4. Lately I've been trying to figure out ossipee lake in New Hampshire. It's a big sand bowl essentially. I've caught some dinks here and there and I've driven around and have marked some just sitting out in 30'. My biggest question is this. Are the smallmouth in ossipee roaming (cruising around working bait)? Or am I missing something huge? If anyone can point me in the right direction it's much appreciated. I'm not looking for spots, just wondering what the smallmouth do this time of year there.
  5. That make a lot of sense, thank you very much
  6. So I have a helix 5 I just put in and every time I make a run across the lake I'll obviously slow down to sonar a spot and it has a hard time getting a reading of the bottom. It just says it 1.1ft and after waiting for like a minute or two it finally gets a reading anyone know what my problem is?
  7. Are these docks sunken?
  8. I'm in need of help of finding smallmouth in sunapee lake. The water temp today was 70 and I couldn't put much together besides catching a dozen dinks on the top feeding on mayflies. Stuck with that pattern hoping to find bigger ones but no luck. They are looking for a larger source of food. Anyway I was reaching out to you all for a little bit of advice. How do I approach the lake in finding summer smallmouth. There's some noticeable main lake reefs you can see on a map. Should I be looking for rock piles on these pieces of structure or should I be looking for smallmouth on uncharted structure?
  9. Is there any New Hampshire angler who can give me the main types of forage the smalls are feeding on in squam lake and on winni
  10. I got off the lake today with an ok day of fishing. Had 2 3lbers and some smaller ones landed. I launched at the top of the d**n in Nashua. I was wondering if anyone had tips to find and land big Nashua River bass and where I can find consistent quality bass in this River. I spent 10hours on the lake and it was hard to put a pattern together. Tell me what ya know!
  11. I like when the angler explains what hes doing and shows what hes doing. I like the format that *** approaches with their videos
  12. Hello, I have run into a serious problem. It's ice out and I just took out the boat today and plan to do the same yesterday. I fished some small weedy ponds today but tomorrow I'm doing the same. I couldn't put together a bite what so ever all I caught was a couple pickerel. Water temp was in the high 40's and I can't figure out what to throw to entice these fish. Give me some ideas how to locate and entice these bass to kick the season off with a good start.
  13. I'm from the north east and I've been punching holes in the ice for years and catching tons of bass through the ice. But the bass I catch are less than a pound. I've spent hours looking on what kinds of structure I should be fishing. The most productive structure I've fished is a gradual slope going from 5 feet of water to about 10 feet with a flat at 10 feet. I'd like to know how to key in on larger bass. Let me know what you guys have on catching quality bass through the ice
  14. Hell ya! she goes all the time with her uncle
  15. I'm going to the Nashua river this weekend. I have never fished it before. I am bringing a girl on a date so I'm determined to put some bass on the boat. I am wondering what kinds of pieces of structure to fish this late into the season and the kinds of baits to throw. I'm thinking of starting out with a weightless tube, slowly working a suspending jerk bait and rolling a spinner bait. Tell me what you guys have to catch some Nashua River Monsters.
  16. I'm getting into some tournaments involving very clear cold water lakes, such as Lake Winnipesaukee. I cant find too many articles on what the bass are doing every season. My goal is to get some general information such as what pieces of structure do the bass relate to in all 4 seasons or what kinds of baits or patterns to throw and what is the main forage. If anybody has good information I would highly appreciate the helpful tips!
  17. Ya I'm hoping there are some more monsters waiting to be caught.
  18. I'm looking at a depth chart of it. by looking at the contour of the map I'm assuming it right in front of that legs just off the point of the south side of the lake. But I really appreciate the help!
  19. So Ive been fishing potanipo lake and it's been giving me a hard time. Does anybody know this body of water and what the bass feed on. Where they? are they usually either deep or shallow? just any tips will help. Thanks!
  20. Im planning on going to squam lake in New Hampshire this summer to catch some nice smallies or largemouth. I know what kind of structure I will generally bhe fishing, but I've never fished there just got my boat pretty rigged out. Anybody got anything for summer bassin at squam?
  21. This is by far my favorite fishing story. It was a slow day and "bam!" something huge thought it was a 20lb catfish. had a little bit of kicking. and pulling. Had 8lb line with spinning gear. small senkos by the way. It's taking drag. finally I get it in and all I see is this massive snapper with a senko in it's mouth. the shell was about 2 and a half feet in diameter.
  22. I have a friend getting a 20ft canoe with a 20hp outboard. What are your guys' views on this? I think its crazy and a waste of money.
  23. Best jerk bait and never comes off the deck is the shadow rap. Its changes everything!
  24. I use suspending jerkbaits. With a good pause in between small jerks.
  25. My all time favorite and always have it on my rod is the new shadow rap jerk bait. I can fish it fast with a lot of action right near the bottom depending on the model you get. I can fish it slow and leave it in the strike zone a lot longer. It works in cold water, warm water all depending on the retrieve. It suspends allowing me to either catch highly pressured bass suspending or when they are tight to cover and their strike zone is small I can get it in there and leave it in there for a long period of time. I can also use it to get reaction bites. It's the bait that caught me my biggest bass! Its always something you always want on your deck!
