  1. I have been putting alot of thought into this. Tho i normally fish/hunt in any type of weather, its the possible road conditions that make the decision, especially for those driving a distance. Im all for rescheduling for a better Saturday, which looking at the weather, is any other than this weekend.
  2. I agree. The lake is in great shape as far as food. This was a very small example of those balls that i seen. These were taken 50 yards from the ramp at Aunts. That entire cove looked like this.
  3. Holy Santa, I seen some of the largest schools of bait fish that I have ever seen. I took a few snaps of the screen. Must be thousands of them. Hard to believe guys like myself can catch a bass with all of that free food available.

  5. Hey Ben, if you ever want to get off shore, your welcome to come fish in my boat anytime. I usually fish at Aunts Creek or Cape Fair. But I can launch anywhere. Nice catches.
  6. Just walked in the door myself from Aunts. Did pretty well. I lost the biggest bass I've ever hooked into on TR. if it wasn't 7 pounds it wasn't a fish. I know I know, but this story is true. Throwing a wiggle wart, and a buddy text. I had just got it down to digging into the rocks, and picked up my phone to text him back. Set the phone down, started reeling the reel, and a huge tug started. Must have ate it as it was floating up. She didn't put up much of a fight. On the second try to lip her at the boat, I noticed she was barely hooked on the skin part of her lower mouth. I reached down to belly grab her as she was just laying by the boat with her mouth shut, and as soon as I touched her, yep that WW popped out as I watched her VERY slowly swim straight back down to 8 FOW. I left the area a few hundred yards down and caught a few barely keepers on a RC. Went back 2 hours later to try to entice the big girl into biting the Ned, and 2nd cast caught a 3 pound smallie. At first I thought i had hooked Ol' biggie as that smallie pulled like a train. Overall pretty good afternoon.
  7. I had considered that Mac. But at my age, sometimes considering something is as far as it goes. I did leave the strap with slack hooked up incase the trailer tool a 2' fall off the edge of the concrete. Not sure how far out the ramps go.
  8. Delivered to us on the water? You bet
  9. Think of the guys in Aluminum boats.
  10. Just ordered a 1000 yard spool from Amazon. Hope its as good as you say Wrench.
  11. and 50. Last weeks forecast said mid 60's.
  12. Who's bringing the firewood?
  13. Sorry just seen the zip code. Are you coming to the OA tourney Sat?
  14. I live in Springfield but can come wherever. Where ya located?
  15. That was my concern at Cape yesterday. Did have to back so far down that water was under drivers door. With a 4 door truck it's not easy walking along the step rail holding on, hoping not to fall in the water before I climb into the bed.
  16. The boat i just purchased has an East of the Mississippi card in it which doesnt do much good around here. Do i need to buy a local card or can one be downloaded into the unit from a buddy? This is a HB 999.
  17. thanks guys I will get that ordered. Thinking about replacing my boat seats just the driver and pass. instead of having them redone. This is on an Xpress X 19 boat. The current seats or dark gray with high backs looking for something like that if anyone sees anything. I seen a set on craigslist last week out of a bass cat or something but I can't find them again
  18. Thanks ST. I checked Amazon which is always my preference, but nothing. I have an EBay account but haven't used it in years so wouldn't remember login info. I could always get a new account. I see a few of these part numbers listed online and all about the same price.
  19. Need to order a simple $2.00 trolling motor switch cover but don't want that to cost me $2000 by buying from one of those overseas jak wads. They have a 877 number listed but no address. Thanks
  20. This wind has been nasty all week.
  21. no longer available
