Sounds good. I will be in that area in about 10 days, and I am looking forward to the trip. Might hit it right this year!

What is the clarity like between 39 and Campbell Point. It was 15 feet in late March. Has is reduced at all because of rain?

Started out the morning with Bill, and we had a great time learning from the "zin master" of stickbaits. I headed out again while Jim took a nap. He regretted it as I nailed a 18" LM on the first cast. Caught 4 more before I picked Jim up. We caught about 15 more in the afternoon on stickbaits. If we found wind we found fish. Most of the bass were males cruising around the staging areas. Warmest water was 50-51. Best baits were the McSticks in your favorite color. Caught them on three different colors.

Nice fish! Can't wait to be down in 2 weeks!!

I think we have reached a solid consensus on this topic. The reel is in the eye of the beholder. It is a confidence issue. Some guys are Quantum, some Shimano, some Pflueguer, etc. JUST FISH!!!!! AND HAVE FUN!!!

Great points Wayne! I learned the bail idea from Ike at a seminar in KC. I have made it habit. Also, to add, I run my line through a cloth with silicon spray on it. This seemed to help with twists and loops over the last couple of seasons.

I am with techno, and I will get beat up by Babler, but I like my Pflueger Presidents . This spring will be my first year with a good Shimano. Maybe I will become a total convert like I am with my casting gear. The President has been a smooth reel for me, and I have not had a single mechanical problem.
-
Is there any discussion about moving the Classic to a different part of the year. This would offer an entirely new set of tactics and baits.

Not a big suprise...but finds a way to do it every time. Also, anyone interested in playing fantasy fishing on ESPN. We could build an Ozark Anglers group. Might be fun, and just a thought

Here is my laundry list.. 1. Zoom Finesse Worms (Watermelon and Green Pumpkin) 2. Shakey Heads (1/8 to 1/4) 3. Eakins Jigs (PBJ or Watermelon Candy) matching trailers 4. Wiggle Warts (crayfish colors) 5. Spinner baits (white) 6. Grubs (3-5 inches) (smoke, green pumpkin, watermelon, etc) 7. 1/8-3/8 oz jig heads for grubs 8. Zoom Flukes 9. suspending jerkbaits This should get you started. Good Luck

Great post. I start using that technique. Most of the time a just cut the line and retie
-
I agree with Champ. I hired Bill last year, and I feel much more confident now than ever. They can flat out fish and show you little things that reap big benefits
-
Use a barrel swivel above your bait (about 16-18 inches)
-
Had an awesome trip with Bill last summer, and we are hooking up again in March. Great fun, great information, great fisherman
-
I agree with you all about the issue. I watched an episode of Bass Pro's fishing show two weeks ago, and Rick Clunn touched on the same subject. We need to show eachother proper etiquette. Makes the experience that much more enjoyable. Love of the sport and the fish should drive us, not big rigs and money
-
I just started throwing them last season and I have done well with the Wake bait. I use the Copper Green and Purple Perch. I have been using the 1.5 and 2.5 models
