So I’m working on snow/ice on my gravel driveway and I noticed this that relates to fishing. Our temperature this week have been below freezing all day long but mostly sunny. So the gravel still heats up and is melting the frozen snow. Each day we are getting a fraction more daylight so imagine why the fish like rock in cold water. As long as the sun can reach the rock in the waterway it will heat up no matter the water temperature. The bigger the rock surface the more heat potential. Be intentional when fishing!
Hi Everyone I am Tom a new member to SUF. Today I had the opportunity to attend my first live (lunch n' learn) and it reassured me that my decision to become a member was the right choice. I've had the opportunity to view some of the past pod cast, quick tips and live sessions and I am excited about the information that is being shared. YES I would like to be considered for a boater position in the angler development program. I like to tell everyone that I am in the end of 3rd year of my 5 year apprenticeship for my new career. its something I want to do for the rest of my life. I think this opportunity will be the valuable scaffolding that i will need to succeed and develop. A road map/guide to help me focus in the right direction. a mentorship. and maybe explain why not once but twice my CO put 13-15lbs in the boat behind me while i struggled to put 10lbs in the boat. I'm excited to get this season started as soon as the water softens some here on the north coast/ Lake Erie (North East Ohio) and to answer your question B-Lat "what do we do for 4 months of not fishing?" we replace split rings/ hooks on our baits. 😁
Just wanted to share my boat build and let others know it’s alot of work but so worth it . This is my 1991 alumacraft phantom V170 rebuilt from the float foam up. Floor ,wiring harness/fuse panel, added lighting storage and graphs(two at the dash and two up front and a non mega 360) updated to a 115 Johnson .
Also added a deck extension with custom cut out and lighting for the tackle storage !
I wanted a boat to take anywhere and fish club tournaments and it has done awsome and we have fished a lot of water and places so worth it !
I just used the TBN discount code and saved 60 bucks.
Here’s the link to snoop around if you need some tiny boat accessories. To be honest there’s a bunch of good stuff for all types of boats.

The next series of workshops looks like this for you guys.
There’s a war in our minds about technology. It’s in our mind. Bass are still doing the same things they always have done. They are still going to the same places they always have. Since there’s so many ways to consume information the war in our minds pulls us in so many different directions once we’re on the lake.
Let’s talk about it today at 12pm on the live class.
BLat's recent Youtube video got me thinking about the fiscal ($$$$) aspects of tournament fishing. Has anyone built or know of a good spreadsheet for tracking cost or building a budget? As you can imagine I started down a rabbit hole and started a spreadsheet. Screen capture attached
