    Yes it is. While I have never fished on another river for bass, I think it is the best!

    New River near McCoy Virginia

    ]Been having a blast the couple of months on the New River. Cold, Rain, Wind, or good weather it doesnt matter. I also caught my first Muskie, fishing for small mouth. Caught a 33 inch 10 lb. working a 4" Senko Watermelon on 2/0 hook. What a blast!!!

    Went to traffic court today

    Glad it all turned out. In my County ( I have worked for the Sheriif's Office for 28 Years) the judge would have refered to this as a ticket bearing chcken feathers...if you get the drift. A lot of people do not come to court and just pay their tickets off. My advise to everyone is go on in and...

    New River near McCoy Virginia

    Yes it was really fun to bring in. He/she was a fighter who seemed to really like the area under my boat :D My 13 year old was with me and I thought he was gonna wet his shorts. I wish he had been the one to catch it. Being a new (its been 20 years since I have been out on a boat) fisherman...or...

    New Boat

    Well, still having difficulties with my motor. At times it runs well at half throttle. Other times it misses badly....almost like a cross fire above half throttle. But, it gets me up and down the river just not very fast. The other day it was dying out when running at half throttle. I plan to...

    New Boat

    Well, as luck would have it, and as my reputation goes I could tear up an anvil with a rubber hammer, I bent the fire out of my (I think it is called) keel support. Fortunately, I have a very good friend who's father owns an auto repair shop and we (he) got it straightened out. So much for...

    Thanks. I was thinking it may be the ground between the ball and trailer. Will give that a try.

    New Boat

    Maiden Voyage with the new boat went well. Caught a bunch of nice small mouth and redeye. Only two problems. 1. The motor did not seem to have the power I thought it would...perhaps I had the motor set down too low???? Any ideas. 2. Need lots of practice getting the thing back onto the trailer...

    New Boat

    UPDATE!!!! One of my buddies came over yesterday afternoon, who has forgotten more about boats and fishing than I will ever learn. He helped me get my motor going. Debri in the fuel filter (I could not figure out how to get it open....now I know), and a clogged water discharge line (muddabber...
