    Gas to drive to the lake...$2.58. Berkley Powerbait...$3.99. Spending time outside hooking up on 3 beautiful Rainbows in 15 minutes = PRICELESS!

      Thanks Frank! I know YOU know what it's like when you're fishing for bass and end up with a big, toothy predator on the end of your line. A few extra minutes ...more are required to make sure you leave with all your fingers...and your lure!
    2. Frank Yamada 0
      Nice, Jeff. I bet it took a while to land it.

      Thanks Jim. What a rush!
    3. Jeff B 0
      Thanks Rick. I don't necessarily look at the rod breaking as a bad thing. What I do see is NEW GEAR in my future!

    Beautiful weather but no luck with Bass or Crappie. Switched gears and caught 10 - 15 Bluegill. There are times you just can't beat fishing with a worm and a ...more bobber! 😁

      I came home, turned on the TV to see a Bassmasters Tourney, they actually stock Bass in Texas, are there any lakes like that here?
    2. Mark Merlin 0
      Nothing today for me. In two days I talked to 6 or so other Anglers, only one caught a decent Largemouth. This isnt the lake to fish for big Bass.
    3. Jeff B 0
      Well, if they're NOT at the South Shore they HAVE TO BE at the North Shore...lol. Can't wait to see all your pics tomorrow! Good luck and be safe gents.
    4. Shawn Bobb 0
      I’ll be on the pontoon north shore
    5. Mark Merlin 0
      I was there all morning and caught 2 of those and that's it. I went South Shore today, going North Shore tomorrow.
    6. Jeff B 0
      Shawn...There's PLENTY to go around!
    7. Shawn Bobb 0
      don’t catch them all. I’ll be there tomorrow
