Champ - what do you really feel about Marty, binoculars and Yeti? You need to learn to let those negative feelings out 😆

Thought I would get my picks in early!! All ready to go for the first tourney! C4F

I am in!! I guess I am going to have to get my jerk baits all lined up....but the water up here has a very hard cover right now so I may have to practice in the bath tub 🤔 C4F

Thanks Wrench - that is good stuff. It is nice to hear real life solutions instead of all of the marketing BS that is out there. C4F

Good info here....DavidB I am in the same boat so to speak...I want to upgrade my TM to the Ghost and I think I have my banker convinced that it is more a need than a want 🙂 I also want to put a 12 on the bow....thinking carbon maybe? I have a 12" Gen2 at the console. Thanks for all of the info Bill!! C4F

Awesome report Bill Thanks!

Much wisdom has been typed here...I can't tell you how much I have learned by reading these posts. There are times that I channel Champ when it comes to bank beating and Bill when it comes to "deep sea" fishing. Unfortunately my antenna must be at the wrong angle as I dont catch as many fish as they do. But I use many of these techniques here in the cornhusker state and they do work...as one said don't be afraid to move out to deeper water if they are not up close...of course our lakes are small so moving out may mean that you are on the other bank!! Thanks for all of the information....Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year to all C4F

I will also donate to the cause 🙂 C4F

If I had all of the money that I would ever need.... 1. Create an endowment to help sick and dying children and their families. 2. Make sure that the homeless shelters would not have to worry about having enough supplies. 3. Figure out a way to create micro loans for small and emerging business's that can't find funding otherwise. 4. Help fund those organizations that work with under priveledged people that help them help themselves. 5. Spend as much time as my wife would allow spoiling her. I did not mention my kids, yes I would help to take care of them but as said ealrier I do not want to enable them to not work. If you don't work for something then you have no idea what anything is worth. C4F

Champ, your post got me thinkin.... I did not try the spinner bait!! Then that would be a complete fishing failure...that is OK when I got back to the cabin my wife said it wasn't me it was the fish... I think she gave me a participation compliment trophy 😒

Went out again this afternoon....I tried the Rock Crawler, Spoon, Jerk and Ned. No joy on anything....a couple of taps, I think, I hope anyway. I must have not been in the right places...plenty of bait balls but no fish near them. C4F

I saw any where from 55 to 57.5 C4F

Splashed the boat around 11 and hit a few coves in the KC area....what a beautiful day to be on the water. I was able to locate a few bait balls but I did not see any fish underneath them. Just in case I did throw a Dixie Jet at them.....no love. So I switched to a jerk bait...as the commercial would say - who is the cheesiest? I woke up the cheesiest coach....Yeah I figured if Cheese could do it so could I....NOPE!! Well, there is tomorrow!! C4F

A couple of nice ones there cheese...we are down for a few days and will be trying the jerk from time to time....maybe not today as the wind is getting after it already and I am looking forward to a nice dinner C4F

Thanks Mike - you are right..I think that we all have plenty to be thankful for. God has truly been merciful to me and mine that is for sure. Have a great Thanksgiving to all of my internet friends 🙂 C4F

Thanks...and I found the thread that you had mentioned....I am headed down today for the Thanksgiving Holiday so I appreciate the report. C4F

Great pictures and report Bobby - I wondered when they would be schooling and the deep bite would be better. I am surprised that they didn't hit the spoon....How did you rig the fluke? C4F

Quill - Thanks for posting the pic....he was a good fisherman for sure...sorry to hear that life ended to early for him and for sure prayers for his family. As was said - he seemed to be in a place that he loved...death takes to many to soon. Some day we will understand why. C4F

I am with Cheese....Aunt's is as good as anyplace. As Mike said if we get closer to the dam there are tourney's coming out of State Park etc. As far as time of year there will always be conflicts no matter the time but I like the late fall as it is a nice break. C4F

It was a fun day for sure....good food and good conversation....I did use your suggestion Bill and caught a few, mainly dinks and it sounds like most caught fish.....but that Cheese guy caught them all on a jerk bait!! Apparently he did not get the memo that this is NOT jerk bait season! It was good to see everyone not to mention the money that was raised for the High School fishing club. BTW Cheese I listened to the crying and moaning from the Husker less faithful... C4F

Getting ready for the morning!!!!

Thanks Mike - so a normal Saturday of the rock!? C4F

Do I see Jim Cantore in the back ground? If that is the case then you folks need to head for the hills! C4F

I hope you went fishing today you had bites galore!! C4F
