Is there any chances of seeing pictures? I love seeing pictures of catches. My dream is to catch a peacock bass before i die....

I brought the hydro lure once.Why? well lets just say i wasn't in my right mindset that night. Boy did i regret it in the morning....

The older guys out by me always seem nice.Most of them are just going after the carps or bluegills for dinner.

I don't know.... usually i like doing both....

I'm guessing he got a fake LC lure?

There's one opening up in allen park,MI.... NICE yipppeee! *adds another sport store to the list*

I've used blue fox,panther martin,mepps and worden's...they all catch fish. Matter of fact i used it last weekend as a search bait.

I'm in the same situation....got sick of not catching i actually broke out the spinning rod and an inline spinner from blue fox...starting nailing them yesterday.For whatever reason they wanted something small and flashy.They wouldn't bite anything else.

Thanks raul for clearing that up....however they got this made,it's the way i like it...seems to be able to set it exactly the way i want it.

Ahh got ya...thanks

Depends on which reel i'm using... ;D Citica i think i have 3 on 3 off.Usually stays like that Quantum accurist i have it set on 5-6 Works bests for 3/8oz...heavier the lure the lower i set the brakes. Shimano Scorpion I think i have 1 on but my magnetic is set at half or a little more.I love my scorpion because i can really switch up on my settings if i wanted to.I'd really like to pick another ones of these up by the end of winter when it comes. Only time i can freespool is 3/4 oz lures or heavier.You really gotta train that thumb.

I'm gonna sound real stupid..but what is a Parabolic action rod? What is the actual action of it?

Which is why i don't hate winter(well i don't like it either)...by spring time i'm roaring to get out on the lake as soon as our bass season opens.Once dec. comes around the corner i'll be visiting tackle stores with my kid.We'll play the game "should daddy get this or no?"..he usually gives me the right answer.

Contact your wildlife department....pretty much all you can do.Inform them what's going on and see if they can check people out more often.They'll appreciate the tip. Plus it shows you care. Confrontations will lead to problems...trust me on that.Early this year i saw some guys using dip nest catching everything any anything and keeping everything even undersize fish.Ended almost getting into a fight over it as well.Not worth it. You can also call the cops and they can hold those people till a wildlife guy comes out there. Where there's trout here they keep a watchful eye on those waters for some reason.

That's horrifying to hear! Road warrior's suggestion is why i have a dog as well.My Dog is also my door bell...since i don't hear too well he alerts me when somebody's at the door.

So in another words it's pretty much about presentation/temptation to the fish to bite that lure. bass here have a thing for hotdogs....i'm not kidding they love hotdogs here. And sometimes it's not even about presentation. There is one lake where I live that contains religious bass. Sometimes they will fast for days. : well that explains the lack of bite... ;D

Something about this stirs me the wrong way.... I'll stick to my CB hawg sauce....

Sorry i just had to do it! Funny thing is i was just watching that on TV as i was reading this.Talk about scary! I've been online for over 5 years and talked on countless message boards.Over my experience it's easier to open up.I can bet if anything,most of us are pretty quite easy going guys/gals.

i'm gonna lurk this thread as well....hope to see more advice.I don't do too well in the fall. Guess i'm gonna stick with the jigs and deeper cranks.

Bassn Blvd congrats on your little fisherman.Best wishes and happiness for your family. Take care of your wife and kid.

I don't see where she's dropping the lawsuit.The captain plead her to drop it,but she won't. Ahhh..nevermind.They updated the news.

This makes me mad....i rather not say what i'm thinking right now. Because it'll surely get deleted....

I perferr baitcasters now...i grew up with spinning reels. I still switch back and forth. Finesse,weightless and inline spinners go on my spinning...everything else goes for baitcasting for me.

There's a few information going around on how to get them and how it's done.Del mart is one that i know of right now. It can be done...It just takes some digging and practice.
