Do you guys have flooded lakes? I’ll share with you what I found this week at smith lake.

This is the areas I’m targeting right now. What’s your best spots look like?

I went practicing for a club tournament this weekend. We're fishing a clear lake which isn't too common in Texas. Given the time of yr and water temps, my mindset was to fish shallow while looking for beds. I went a few hours with no bites. While scanning a pocket I noticed a lot of bait. Dropped the trolling motor and saw that the fish were on bait and got my 1st clue. I then went to other pockets and ran that pattern.... I've definitely got a game plan going into Saturday.

Kyle Welcher drop 3 Consecutive 30+ pound bag! My mind is blown 🤯. I been say this for the longest them boys for bama need to be test for steroids because them boy can catch em!

Mother Nature is really trying to hold on to winter up here. The water temp yesterday was 45. I hope everyone else is out there fishing.

I’m at a tournament this week. Anyone else fishing a tournament this weekend?

Co-angler: The boater is not a guide. He’s fishing his tournament and you are fishing yours. Try not to complain about where you’re fishing or your not catching any fish. As a co. We have to learn to fish in any situation, but I think it’ll make you a better fisherman! Also you paid your money to fish so don’t let him bully you! 1: when you get the text the night before you’ll get your boaters name and number, and your take off number. When you call him don’t chit chat to much. I ask when where, if we are fishing deep or shallow. Also find out what color his rig is so you can find him the next morning. 2: if you don’t feel comfortable backing the boat in the water let your boater know, if he has a problem with that it’s his problem. If you are good backing it in then do it. 3: when you are getting things ready there’s not really a rule of how many rods you bring but from experience if you bring over five rods it gets to be a pain in the rear keeping them untangled and in order, and you get one compartment in there boat don’t bring a bunch of tackle bags and lunchboxes. Try to bring everything you need in one bag and if it’s to big to go in his compartment then you’ll be holding it while your flying down the lake jumping wake’s. Most tackle bags will fit in them just be careful about bringing a duffel bag. 4: respect his boat. Do your best to clean your shoes. And try to keep your equipment organized. 5: Don’t get discouraged when fishing in the back of the boat. You can’t make your cast in front of the console all your casting needs to be the back half of the boat. And the boater is going to position the boat best for him. I have some more I’ll add. I had a emergency and had to drive back to Arkansas. I’ll add what we talked about in the round table. BRING YOUR OWN LIFE JACKET

This is something new I’m trying. A lot of you are already on it!!! Keep it up!

I would like to nominate Ricky Taylor. First off if you serve this country then you deserve everything this country can give you back. Secondly i would like to see a kayak guy get to go in a boat lol.
