How do I get all the vacationers in their cigarette boats and jet skis off the lake so I can fish?

I'll do that one better.

 

How do I get the fishing boats to slow down so they don't almost swamp my canoe every time one passes by?

[Dminor9]

I have seen some really ignorant and stupid moves by people in their boats. I agree with you MN Fisher about being swamped. I have recently seen several Kayak fishermen get swamped by people in bass boats, jet skis, wake boarding boats, etc. They have no regard to the safety of others. This is one reason I always wear a PFD when fishing. Be safe and PLEASE be considerate of others!

What is the best bait to throw during the time of day I am fishing?
 

I really want to ask when will x-ray vision goggles or implants become available? If I could see under the surface of the water it would be a game changer.

I would like to know why the jig bite in my home lake had all but disappeared in the last two years.

Bah - just get one of these.

Why do I always feel I need to buy more or better equipment, rod, reels, lures, electronics etc?  When what I really need is the time, and ability to fish what I have more effectively.

What is THE true secret to just enjoying wetting a line and hopefully catching a fish, vs spending beaucoup bucks on rigs and tackle, countless hours fretting over what esoteric color combination or inch length of lure may be THE one and generally ending up frustrated and disheartened because all you caught were 2 lb’ers.

Where is that "spot, within a spot" in my lake, that will hold the biggest bass. I've found a couple of good spots, but firmly believe there is one that I havnt found yet. I'm still searching.

Honestly I am new to the bass fishing community. I have lived outta the country for almost 7 years. Before that I lived in North Carolina and all I did was catfish. Needless to say that bass fishing to me at least is a different breed. I have only been bass fishing since February. I have found happiness in not getting all into the rigs and tackle. I own 4 poles now. 3 baitcasters and 1 spinning. Whenever I get caught up in the spending on rigs and tackle I try and let it go. I typically only fish with 1 weightless worm and one weight worm. One baitcaster is for whatever i wanna toss on it like a football jig or spinner. I actually enjoy fishing worms and I do very well with em. Hey if it works it works  Just go with my standard 3/0 a green pumpkin worm and a light weight. Sometimes I toss a strike king crawl.

Where everyone hides the bass in our lakes around here?  Lol

say it ain’t so

Which friend won't cancel fishing plans

[Shimano_1]

I would just like to be more efficient with my electronics.  I feel like that's the missing link for me....although there are plenty more id like answered lol. I can use my graphs and have caught fish using them but just would like to be more confident in what I'm looking at

[MN Fisher]

When will the next time the weather and the wife's respite worker will co-ordinate their schedules?

 

(This weeks trip looks like it'll be canceled - scheduling conflict.)

Where can I catch my new pb? Doesn't need to be a world record or even the state record..I'm not greedy. I would just like a 9lb largemouth.

[GReb]

I’ll just take the $64k!

[Smells like fish]

Will I ever reach a point where I don't want anymore lures. Lol

I can give you at Least One suggestion, and it does come highly recommended. 

However you will be needing a passport.

Shoulda been more specific...id like it to be local...since we are talking never neverland

[NorcalBassin]

My question would be similar to OP's... where are the (presumed) DD spots hanging out on my home lake? Six years ago the owner of Powell rods caught the WR spot here, but it's since been beat a number of times by a number of anglers at Bullards Bar. I doubt we have any WR's swimming around here anymore since they halted trout plants a few years ago and kokanee plants have been hit or miss (unlike Bullards Bar), but I'm still dreaming of running into a DD spot.

[scaleface]

Close to where that x is at . I think there is a  spot that holds big bass . I havent found it yet but I'll keep looking . I have caught bass there but nothing big and there are plenty of big bass in this lake .Its kind of weird .It looks like a point but its a big flat under water but there are defined channels

At this time, my question Id like answered is : What must I do to catch the 9 + fish that I know live in my home lake? I got an 8.1 two years ago and a 7.6 last year that was 26 inches. My son got an 8.2 three years ago.

I have very diligently searched all spring for larger fish , and a 4.10 was the biggest, along with several others around 4. 

You might say someone else caught and kept them. I do 95% of all the fishing on my lake. About the same % of time, Im the only one fishing on any given day.

Im about to go into a live bait( bream or shiner ) campaign to solve this question, if I cant do it with artificials.
