This question has been asked a million times before I know. but how many rods do you think a co-angler should bring with them? In the few I have done I always brought five . And 75% of the time I’m fishing with the only spinning rod I brought. I think this year I’m going to bring less rods and some extra reels set up with different line. What do you guys think?

I have a question about C-rigs what is your favorite bait and color to put on? After watching the video on colors I was wondering if anyone ever used a fluorescent color

New thanksgiving tradition 8 so far and a few little bass

Not much luck but I can’t think of a better way to spend the day

As I was fishing in my kayak Saturday ( the wind was kicking my butt) I got on the Garmin app to look for points and ditches and ledges . Mostly point and ditches on lake greenwood . And it worked pretty good . So I’m going to use it when I draw someone using the ffs maybe I can find a hump or a ditch out of the back of the boat. So I think it’ll be a good tool for us co-anglers. What do you guys think?

Tron Foster made a comment on a post about the frittside about it being the best tuned crankbait out of the package. And I didn’t know you were supposed to tune crankbaits. I looked through the older videos and didn’t see anything. So how do we tune crankbaits? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated!

Lake Murray breakdown: I’ve found there is thread Fin shad, herring ,bluegill and yellow perch Also gizzard shad. There is Pond weed that is native to the lake that grow 5 to 15 ft which will be dormant during the January BFL so not a player ! There are a few spotted bass and some small mouth but the largemouth are the dominant species. There are some points and I think the ditches and steep drop off edges will be an opportunity there is a hydro electric plant that will have warmer water running the west end of the lake is where the Saluda river runs into the lake comparing google earth with a topographical map making it more stained on this end . there are some docks that are in deeper water.( Do any of you think that would be something to try out?). This isn’t everything but it’s what I have so far. what else do we need to look into for the January tournament?

How do you guys calm yourself for tournaments? Like how do you keep your focus when it’s 11:00 and you don’t have a fish in the boat. Do you stick with the plan you have laid out for yourself? I always get flustered and wind up going out in left field then on the way home I’m kicking myself for not sticking to my plan. So I guess I’m asking how do you keep your composure?

I was reading about Co-anglers bringing mobile electronics. Is this going to far? Or is this something that a Co-angler should consider

If you’re in the back of the boat and your boater is live scoping in the middle of the lake. What would you guys throw? I try to fan cast all the way around the back half of the boat with a Carolina rig or a Texas rigged worm. I try to drag and find some sort of structure, which I haven’t done yet lol . What do you guys and girls think would be the best strategy? Especially in the months of January and February
