Yes, yes I am. rock:

Oh and for a real challenge in fishing, switch to lures. For your bass/crappie, try and match the lures to what they're feeding on. Down here, especially this time of the year, they hit alot of top water lures because of the summer bugs that sit on top of the water. Sometimes though, they hit shiners. For shiner matching I reccomend Yo-Zuri's. A little expensive, but WELL worth it. Soft plastics I'd roll with zoom baits. Try and get an assortment of colors. For me it's the super fluke ones . They have a sorta silvery/gray color to them. Make sure to get weedless hooks and rig em up.

Your best source of knowledge is obviously your local tackle shop. Don't get advice from any major chain stores that have an outdoors department, those fuckers wouldn't know a fish from a filipino. Just head to your local tackle shop and ask the guy what's best for where your going and what your catching and make sure to purchase at least one thing from the store, always a good show of respect.

Anyways, after that get a camera and challenge me for bragging rights beer:


Here's a 36 inch Jack Crevelle I caught on a Yo-Zuri using a 6'6 medium action rod with 12 pd test. HE wore my leader and was running me into the gears of a Lock.
