NasTMcfingas Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Not having a boat Never fished a river Never really fished a major body of water Quote
tholmes Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 I don't like to think of them as weaknesses, but challenges. 1. I need to learn to fish soft plastics, other than T-rigged worms. 2. I Should take more time for weekend trips. Most of my fishing is after work or maybe a Saturday or Sunday afternoon at the two local lakes. I only live a couple of hours from a half-dozen larger lakes, but I can't seem to tear myself away from "everyday stuff" to make the trip. Tom Quote
Hawghead Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 I like many already stated am a bank beater, so fishing out in deeper water is my weakpoint 100%. Need to add carolina rigs, and dropshot rigs to my arsenal. I can say this website has helped me improve the quality of my gear and get into the "senko" style baits. Quote
knap Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 fishing with cranks, i love fishing with plastic and jigs but for some reason i do not like fishing with a crank bait i usually get ticked and quit fishing with it. :-/ Quote
Triton Jones Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 getting to excited... This is bad for me.. I will rat nest or over shoot my target and get a snag. I will just make some type of dumb move. I have a long list of dumb thing i have done when I got too exited when fishing. Quote

Super User ww2farmer Posted January 9, 2010 Super User Posted January 9, 2010 #1 reading current in a river, I am uncomfortable with it, and therefor struggle. #2, and this is a stupid one, I seem to like to leave fish to find fish. #3 when things go wrong in a tournament I get VERY frustrated, which only leads to things continuing to go wrong.

Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted January 9, 2010 Super User Posted January 9, 2010 My major weakness is that I constantly buy tackle and or equipment that I definitely do not need.... Quote
Bass_Fanatic Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 1. Reading electronics...apparently no one can do that 2. Fishing water 10+ ft. 3. Carolina Rig/Drop shot/Shakey Head Quote
brownbass Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Electronics; You can never learn enough about electronics! Flipping & Pitching; I don't use these techniques enough! Jigs; I just don't use them enough! Fishing a big body of water; I do not prefish them correctly (a mistake i will fix) Fishing in Spring (Cold Water) I promise i will work on these! Quote
tkite16 Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Crankbaits,Senkos and not committing to offshore structure Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted January 13, 2010 Super User Posted January 13, 2010 Well, I don't own a boat... :-[ Gee, I really don't have any weaknesses.....cept finding the dang fish.. ;D Also, I get frustrated when I fish with someone that moves to fast..i.e. 3 cast's and move on.. : Quote
bassinbob54 Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 adjusting to changeing conditions during the fishing day Quote
Super User RoLo Posted January 22, 2010 Super User Posted January 22, 2010 What are your fishing Weaknesses? How would you like that, 'numerically' or 'alphabetically'? Roger Quote
JohnnyBigger Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 What are your fishing Weaknesses? How would you like that, 'numerically' or 'alphabetically'? Roger HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA Im with ya on that brother.......mine is lck of expierencs with electronics and techniques... I can find the fish but im only 23 and have a hard time picking the right lure,or presentation Quote
Ineedanewscreenname20170204 Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 My fishing weaknesses: - deep water - electronics - I hear they do more than depth and temp? - trying new techniques with patience - fishing in wind - buzzbaits - most topwater - intend to try sammy this year... - fishing cold water - fishing clear water - fishing hot water maybe I should work on my golf game...

justbassintime Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 i wish i had more patients, i get so mad late in a tournament and i have a empty live well. I wish i could try a new bait, technique and fish it long enough to see if it will work or not. Quote
NitroBass23 Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I would have to say my biggest weakness is to frequently going back to methods Im most comfortable with...which might be one of my strengths too...wierd Quote
Fish M4ST3R Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 I fish too many different bodies of water because I hear slight rumours of good fishing. I go and find out it is not. Quote
The Bassinator Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 1. I dont know the depth of the water im fishing when in my canoe 2. I'm not really good with a baitcaster but getting better 3. I fish from the bank too much because I dont want to take the canoe out 4. I try to vary lures but I go back to my soft plastics most of the time Quote
Wild Bill [NY] Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Work gets in the way....LOL !!! So do so many other things. So many lures; so little time to fish !! Quote
Pez Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 1. Not being able to tell myself "one more cast" 2. Fishing in the wind (not using the wind to my advantage) 3. fishing deeper water Quote
NeedAnewScreenName-587943 Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 you guys are too hard on yourselves. fishing is fun ** finding a boat parked on 'my' spot. some guys in our balt/dc reservoirs will work a prime spot all day because the lakes are small (e.g. 500-900 acres), few in number, and surrounded by millions of people. Around here, when you get a shot at prime real estate on Saturday, you don't let go. <my weakness is adjusting on the fly and not getting too frustrated when they don't move all day> Quote
skeeteroneal Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 Offshore structure is my goal for this year Quote
CAdeltaLipRipper Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Im not very good at drop shotting or winter fishing. I havent been very successful with jigs but i think most of my porblem is the fat line i was using on them Never gaught a fish on a buzzbait but have never really tried them a whole lot Never caught a fish on a spinnerbait but ive only used them a few times im gonna try more this year Quote
