    Which is most important to bass spawn, temp or moon?

    If the water hits the sweet spot, will they go ahead and spawn or wait for the full moon? Thanks for your time guys.

    Hey flounderhead59 and others, a question about lights.

    I read the thread about your LED trailer lights with great interest. Like everyone else that has ever owned a boat trailer, I've had more than my share of trouble with lights. Any more I unplug my lights before backing the trailer into the water. That has helped a little to reduce some of my...

    Question about hook removal tools

    I've been seeing this "New" hook removal tool on Bill Dance's show and was wondering if any of you guys have tried one yet? I sometimes have trouble getting out deep hooks when using plastic worms. I've used a "Hook Shooter" for years and it works pretty well, but even it won't get them all. If...

    Pic from last night

    I didn't get a chance to put this up before now. Had a lot to catch up on this morning. This is one of the fish my wife caught last night. She got 2 and I got the other 4. Some of you guys have asked and others I think wonder why we like to night fish so much. Many reasons. No drunks in speed...

    Went again for a while last night. Got 6 more.

    Fished till about 11:00 or so. Had been storms in the area all evening with a lot of clouds. We got lucky and got no rain. About 11:00 the cloud cover blew out and the fish just STOPPED. I guess a little cold front went through. Everything last night was on black / chartreuse 6 inch curly tail...

    Finally got a chance to get out last evening.

    Totals were 5 bass and one pretty nice walleye of about 19 inches or so. Caught the walleye on a Rapala X Rap jerk bait. All my bass (3) were on black / blue jig&pig with #11 pork frog. Wife caught her 2 bass on plastic worms. Took our night lights and fished till about 11:00 or so and they just...

    Okay boys, time to spill your guts! Lets start

    a thread on each type of fishing that gives us the most trouble. We can all talk it over here and all can LEARN to be better fishermen. Share information and learn from each other. Deep water bass and bass in really big weed beds give me fits. The deep stuff really gives me a hard time. I'm an...

    First trip out this spring for old boat shake down!

    The old Merc started right off and ran like a top all day. Everything on the boat worked just like it is supposed to. Wife and I were at Salt Fork Lake in eastern Ohio. Water is pretty stained to muddy. Water temps were anywhere between 56 and 62 depending upon depth. Only saw one fish caught...

    Slim357 and I just did a deal on a used reel. Great guy

    to work a deal with. Paid real fast. Seems like a good old boy. My old Daddy told me that if both guys walk away with a smile on their face, it was a good deal.

    My name is BigUn and I haven't bought a bait in about a week

    Please tell me I'm not the only one! HA HA HA. My wife says I have enough stuff in the basement to open my own tackle shop. Sometimes I wonder which is the most fun, buying baits and making plans to use them or really being out there on the water. Is there an "A A" for guys like me? Mostly I'm...

    Carolina Rigs, HELP! What in the world am I doin wrong?

    I've been a fisherman for more than 50 years. I am a better than average worm (texas rig) fisherman. Worms and jigs are my "Go Too" baits when fishin gets tough. For years I've wanted to learn to fish the Carolina Rig to use in deeper water. I can't buy a strike on this thing. I've tried all...

    Have any of you folks tried any of the new Shimano Spinning

    reels that "Claim" to almost do away with line twist on spinning reels? I'd kind of like to try one but dang, they sure aren't pricing them for us old retired Hillbillies on a pension! Would sure like to hear what you think of them if you've been lucky enough to try one. Thanks for your time.
