Here’s test number six for you. Talk about kidnapping the president and see how long before your door gets knocked down! 😂

Well done you two!

You were only supposed to take a sample not drink the whole bottle!

Wow that’s terrible! Condolences to his family.

Professional bass fishing is a big gamble and it blows up in more faces than not. I’ve said it before, professional bass fishing is nothing more than a higher end weeknight fishing league we all have around us. Bring your money, roll the dice, and hope you make some money.

The best thing to do is research research and more research. Learn was 2D, down imaging, side imaging, and mapping do. The more you learn the better of a decision you will make about what features suit you. Asking here is a good resource but, some don’t need all the features and some do, so the responses will be all over the place. Hope this helps.

The door buster sales aren’t always in person. I got one of my 93SV UHD’s from Bass Pro online during their Black Friday sale.

4 turnovers (dam lucky it wasn’t 5) The run game is producing so let’s pass The hurry up offense is moving the ball well so let’s slow the momentum down Open field tackles are next to impossible The defense knocked Denver out of field goal range then stupid penalties put them back in Denver misses the field goal to win the game…wait what too many men on the field? Of course there are! I’m at a loss! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

They usually have great deals on electronics during Black Friday. I got one of my Garmins during Black Friday for around $400 off.

I’m a south paw that casts left a reels right with both casting and spinning. Reeling with my left and casting with my right feels extremely awkward. Switching hands even if it weren’t awkward seems silly to me.

Keep it simple stupid

There are enough squirrels out here right now to feed a small army. They sound like deer too on the dried out leaves. 🤬

Braid and flouro for me with braid getting the nod on all but two of my setups. No leader either.

And 6poundbass’s bedroom is filled with the sweet smell of drag racing rubber. 😂

In the summer I will go barefoot or wear flip flops. If I’m fishing smaller lakes with no docks I need to walk in the water to load the boat so I just wear something easy to get on and off. I’m barefoot quite often in the summer time too. The colder months I’ll wear shoes or some sore of insulated waterproof boot.

Thank you veterans.

Whew! That was a rabbit hole I never thought I’d go down this morning. The tires on the Blazer are still good but I’ll keep this site in mind when the time comes. Thanks!

Dam it A-Jay 😢

A few things 1: Don’t swing until you feel the weight of the fish. If you don’t feel the fish leave it their and twitch it a couple times. 2: If you swing and miss cast right back to their. A lot of times they’ll blow it up again. 3: Like @Catt have a back up soft plastic ready to toss out there. That soft plastic will usually pick them off. I myself prefer a light tungsten weight with a Texas rigged craw.

I know people love that feature but I could never trust it. The lakes I fish typically don’t have anyone else on them and quite a few have less than 10 houses on them so help wouldn’t be readily available. Ive gone swimming for my boat before. I don’t want to do it again.

I’m not enough of a reel guru to know the slight nuances of reels. The same can be said for rods as well. I’m a simpleton. This reel gives me the casting distance I’m looking for, it’s smooth, the brakes do their job and with consistency, and it fits great in my hand. Overall I like the reel, the price point I feel is great for what you get (even if it is a graphite reel), and I’ll be adding more to my arsenal as I upgrade.

This should clear things up for you.

If you were accused of a crime you didn’t commit and were looking at say 40 years in prison and the DA has built this case against you that doesn’t look too good for you and your freedom then the offer you a plea deal to a lesser crime and a quarter of the time what would you do? I don’t know what I’d do. Both are scary as hell! You take the plea you have to say you’re guilty. Things like this happen everyday in our justice system. I’m not saying this is the case and it doesn’t sound like anyone else is saying that’s the case either. You came here asking for opinions and you got them. Some of them align with yours and plenty don’t. At the end of the day nobody knows what really happened.

There’s a pro (I forget his name) who used dirt cheap reels (wasn’t sponsored by them either). Reels in the $30-60 price range if I remember correctly. What a pro uses has no bearing on what I use. They are paid to say the reel or equipment they’re using are the best they’ve used. The next year they sign with a different company and regurgitate the exact same thing they said the year before.
