DREAM CRUSHER!

Wow! A MLF professional on our forum.

Welcome to the forum.

Crazy cat on a Deere

I understand Glenn, my FIL passed away on Dec.1st. I feel like I'm swimming upstream while pushing my wife and MIL.

Welcome to the forum, Michael.

Mike, welcome to the forum.

Excellent.

Nice. Here ya go Bob. Merry Christmas

Careful if you google big bear hair. You've been warned.😆

My RAM is reserved for fishing, besides our wedding Anniversary and my wife's DOB. My recall on where I've caught bigger fish and what I caught them on is strong. So don't ask me what I ate yesterday.

Merry Christmas to all of the BR family and friends.

Excellent news

Fished out of canoes alot growing up. Sadly a canoe or kayak is no longer an option with my almost 100 year old back. When sitting while fishing every movement(twisting/bending) is at the lower back. Tried a few fishing trips in a canoe and hurt for days.

Done. Wishing your dad the best. It's scary at any age.

Yes, annually. Pond/Bank rigs gets attention as needed.

I supplement with the protein pictured below. I'm bad about skipping meals.

I run 10lb braid on all my bass spinning reels to 6 - 10lb FC. Fishing anything heavier, I'll be using BCer's.

Some bodies of water are diurnal, IMHO. I used to not believe that some bodies of water shutdown after sundown. I've learned otherwise. Fished a friend's pond, where 20 - 40 bass was normal in 4 - 6 hours. 13 night trips produced 2 bass. He tried warning me, but I had to learn the hard way. My home lake is clear and very tough at night. On night trips, I hunting big girls and not numbers.

Rules? My fish clearly are illiterate.

At night for LM, I'm fishing the surface(wake/buzz/frog) or the bottom(jig/big worm). I only use heavy gear and oversized baits after dark. I'm in total agreement with RRocket, in some ponds and lakes the bass just shutdown after dark. I tried over and over to figure those places out only to right them off as night targets.

I use 14 lb Original Stren for standard size Chugbug & PopR

In the 40s, I'd be alright with just a chrome and gold Cotton Cordell 1/2oz jigging spoon with Gamakatsus on it.

Nice. Interested to see what the Smallmouth think. #IfItAin'tBroken 😆

Wait. Are y'all not already supplementing Glenn? Oh well, worth it to me.
