Iv been out fishing plenty of times this year, both on my boat and shorefishing. I still havnt caught a bass off my boat. Today was the first day I actually pulled a bass up to my boat and saw it, but it got away. Its so frustrating that I need to vent here. All the boats around me usually are pulling them in. My friend has caught more fish on my boat then i have. Last year I caught plenty, so I have some experience. whats your last resort lure? Any advice?
