Last week in our roundtable, Brian latimer talked about Hydraulic levels when fishing a dam. Others proceeded to provide sites where we can find that information. This got me thinking- what other tools and resources can help us to prepare for our day out on the water! That's what tonight's Roundtable's topic will be. What tools, resources, apps have you used to help you?

See you all tonight at 8PM EST. Can't wait!!

Hey hey everyone. Man oh man! I don't know about y'all but life has straight been life'in for me lately. I haven't been able to stay on here very much over the past couple weeks. Seems like every time I have want to fish the wind, water, work, or wife has had different plans.

I have definitely had to reset and refocus on my fishing trips and life. When I have been able to go I have hit up some areas I don't often or haven't fished before. The new idea of exploring over catching has definitely helped with my frustration, it also showed me that every lake is pretty much the same... They all have lay downs, underwater structure, isolated structures, and moody bass. Hahaha!

Glad to be back and I'm hoping I can catch up on all the recordings ASAP.

One of my fun moments, so I had posted some pictures of me at this power plant cooling lake last weekend.  This lake has this one specific area which feeds the main cooling area.  I would describe it as a spillway of sorts.  One of the main species of fish in this lake are catfish. 3 years ago when I first put my kayak in it and fished it for the first time, I made my way to this spillway, not thinking much of it I threw my crank bait into the flowing water, which buy the way, this lake fills from the water from a off limits fish resivor area.... and I think my bait gets snagged.  I thought it got snagged on a piece of rebar that may have stuck out from this concrete spillway or some junk that ended up there some how.  Well after about 2 min of screwing around trying to get my bait back.  It started moving!  Long story sort...  I make it a thing to go back to this place once a year now and spend 20+ min. fighting some giant catfish that just sit there with their mouth open all year long.  It's a freaking blast!! LOL...  The pictures are back to back years.  I did hook into one last weekend, stupid me hooked into one with Blat's sick stick spinning rod.  WRONG ROD TO USE... Note to self!  I couldn't move the cat I hooked into!! I tried fishing more of the outside diameter of this small area because the graph was showing bait balls all over thinking a bass would be there...Nope, big cats everywhere!!  Spent 15 min on that one and it spit my bait.  It was fun though.  Next time bigger rod and 65lb. braid will be used!

Thought I’d throw it out there. Last night in the round table I mentioned this. Some people asked what we use. This is a great travel rod on a budget. Destiny Siguenza and myself have been using this for several years. Caught smallies in Colorado to big buckets in Texas. Not much to it, but it gets the job done. This paired A 2500 spinning reel along side a small box of tackle with finesse swimbaits, jerkbaits, wacky rig stuff maybe some poppers, walking baits and of course some Ned rig and shakey head stuff; you can really get a lot done when you’re traveling or even keeping it in your car. If you’re on a business trip or something and have some ponds by your hotel etc it’s great way to explore some new water. Tight lines fam 🎣

Is the live broken for anyone else?

So... this is thermocline? it's in a small pond near me, not a very deep pond, I think 18' was the deepest areas..

I know this is a rookie question, but should I be throwing bait to stay above it (spinnerbait, jerkbait, top water, etc.), or to get below it.(carolina rig, texas worm, jig, etc).. Don't laugh at me, I've got a lot to learn..lol.

QQ, for those that participate in online tournaments. 

If you are in more than one tournament, do you include all the identifiers in one picture or take a picture for each tournament?
