I went boat fishing in the snow once and had to dig two tire ruts in the snow with a boat paddle to get up the ramp. Unfortunately fishing in below freezing temps isn’t the safest idea in the world, I usually bank fish if it’s below 28 or so. I don’t much care for the idea of falling into the water in the dead of winter and sometimes outBoard issues arise when it’s that cold. The guides freezing still makes it a pain but it’s doable from the bank (and in some places you can build a fire) .

Don’t kid yourself. There’s a reason everyone from up north fishes in Florida. I can fish in 100 degrees with 100 percent humidity much easier than I can -30 with the wind blowing. And I’m not alone!

I agree. Water between 60 and 70 degrees is my least productive fishing, spring and fall year after year. I’d rather have it at 50 or 80 (47-49 is my favorite)

Why are you always posing things that are sensible and logical???? The nerve........

Let me guess, the member that was excommunicated was the deranged Charlie brewer disciple?

@Sam will help

But I can’t tell how long any of those 3 fish are? top one I would guess 19”, no clue on the bottom two

Haha!

getting there! Still just making sure everything fits. Here’s some before and after (or after and before the way I posted )

I like your style

68

I’m not in Canada they just had a bass master Elite on chickamauga, a grass lake in fall. Guess what the winner was throwing?

20 lb braid is some thin stuff. Ive snapped it a lot more than I have 8 lb mono

Frog! People catch them in early December with frog in grass around here

Cable steer, simple is bueno. Heck I even ran a hand steer with extension handle and big foot on/off switch on the deck. I swear I liked that better than anything, you see a lot of shallow water fisherman in Florida with the hand steer I always get a kick out of seeing every guy in local tournaments has to have power poles and spot lock yet none of them ever stop moving

I’ll fish the big river in a canoe at night but I stay literally next to the bank where a boat would have to hit several lay downs before it hits me. I’m like you though, wouldn’t really recommend it to anyone unless they are a veteran waterdog

No motor all you need is a signaling light

Nice one

None except hog

Sounds like you just aren’t trying hard enough. I lost track of how many rods I broke in 5th grade

North Dakota??? Can’t help ya there!

I like the deep shadow rap best for about 10 feet. I have a smithwick rogue perfect 10 but I never throw them for some strange reason. I only think to use them when I’m at home? I wish I could fish a deep jerkbait all the time but there too many floating grass clumps zipping down the river to use one right now

It’s 5 o’clock somewhere! Wait, it’s 5:35 somewhere anyway ........

@NorcalBassin , does your family realize they eat 5 star bar b q on a very regular basis???? Your daughters are going to miss that badly when they go to college haha.

Nice! Gotta love a shotgun
