So many good colors! Look them over. GP Pro Blue is a solid pick for one, or GP Pro Blue 2, and French Pearl early & late in the day.

So good to see bigger lm being caught. Hope you pointed her down lake a bit to areas I more often frequent. Good one! Fish a few different jerkbaits but sure like me some McSticks.

But you recovered......right?

Or could have removed it from the bass and reattached it to a big gar.

Worked fine here, thanks! Good stuff.

Why that 'eye's head is bigger than yours! And its length is from your knees to near top of head. My guess is 30#. Never caught one near that big. Seriously, great fish.

Nice spotted bass!

The format of counting 5 largest fish daily should give a contestant who is way down the leader board a better opportunity to more quickly move up with a few big fish. And thought I had heard that mentioned as the method to be used. Puts more emphasis on quality vs. quantity. Either way of looks to be a move in the right direction

So, this is like a contest? How many guesses do we get on describing rods & reels. And, if we get any part of the answers correct, say the rod or reel or bait tied on the line, do we win that prize?

Excellent! My favorite fishing outings are when my daughter and wife fish with me just after spring sunrise on Table Rock. 🌤️

I’ll keep eyes open for steering system issues but Seastar hydraulic on my boat is 20 years old with only one small top-off of fluid. Thanks for warning though.

G1! TMAMT. (Took me a minute though.)

Shhhh! Folks were just starting to forget about that bait.

I want one!! Nice boat!!

I seems like, as you may have seen mentioned here before, there are areas with great concentrations of fish and others that are barren. Fished 3 days this last weekend, 2 up the James and 1 up the White. Found good concentrations of fish in a few locations on both, many FAT keeper size spotted bass with one good largemouth at 5# on jerkbait. Key for us was (as always at TRL) fishing wind blown points/banks, cedars and certain docks. Baits were jerkbait, swimbait, nedrig & Menace on swinghead jig, mostly main lake areas and not too many shallow fish, most maybe 10' - 20'. Also, morning bite was poor but late morning early PM was very good. I'm still learning that if you're not on fish - move. If you're catching fish there are probably more around. Good luck out there!
