snakes are a completely rational fear and some of us can't help it.

i was ok talking about snakes, but showing pictures is just too much!

wal-mart sells them

that's why we call it fishing and NOT catching

get a buddy to hold the trap open, then use a stick to put the snake in

a dead snake works really well too

there are only 2 evinrude dealers in the branson area, compared to 9 mercury dealers in the same area.

Are you sexually profiling there champ?

just make sure it has a black engine on the back of it

Champ 188 has a couple of them that live up the james river, saw them last fall

yeah, i would have to make a portable livewell, cause my boat doesn't have one

that's a hundred more horsey's than i have

you should set a lower HP limit. Like 60HP max

thanks, i took my brother with me

timberwolf

Ozark Finesse heads from SUPER DAVE (dtrs5kprs) i also use the Bass Pro weedless shroom heads( that i modify to my liking)

i used 1/16 and 1/8. caught the majority using 1/8oz

i have to talked to several guys that own nitro's and have for a while. Every one i have talked to say that the new models are the best yet

thanks Quill

i would just cast it toward the bank, let it sink, shake it a little, if i didn't get a bite on the shake, and would hop it a couple times, and let it sink again, and repeat

the weather was saying wind 6-10mph, so i was actually planning on the stick and wart bite, but there was no wind to speak of

The more i fish it, the harder it is to put down

put in at Bridgeport around 930am, started along the riprap with a jerkbait- nothing doing, picked up the Ned rig 3 fish in 3 casts-1small keeper, 2 shorts. I thought Ok , this day could turn out better than planned. Moved down to Peachtree, picked up another small keeper with a 3/8oz jig, and few more with the Ned. Decided to make a run up the James, made it up past the flurry of other boats, stopped just south of Walnut Springs ramp, fished back toward the lake. Started working a RK and Arashi Deep 10, caught several shorts, switched back over to the Ned, 2nd cast and the biggest fish of the day (and of 2017 so far) was on, Smallmouth right at 17in. Stayed in the river the rest of the day fishing Ned rig and occasionally switching to jig or crank. Water temps up the river were 49.8-51.3 Boat back on the trailer around 5pm Ended the day with 30 fish, only 3 keepers, but hey it's January. I forgot to add that all fish were caught in less than 20ft of water.

wasn't trying to offend you, but you knock a product that you have never seen what it can do. Those hooks may be junk but how do you without trying them first. A teacher i am not, but i am more than willing to go fishing with you any time
