The fish is semi-old news; the politics involved however, are still up in the air and constantly evolving :thumright

It was caught on a live bluegill. The problem with it is that it is illegal to NOT keep bass or bluegill from that lake, so him using a live BG for bait technically is putting it back into the water alive. Retarded, but I guess they want to rid that lake of bass and BGs. I havent heard anything abo...

nice man - 7lbers all yr!

Last I heard the Japanese govt' wasn't going to allow him to submit to the IGFA. From Calfishing/Capt G I have come to the conclusion that Japan will probably not allow the big bass to become a record (JGFA). There is just too much (political) at stake, with the recent push to make all of Japan "cat...

Needs to happen more often imo. These homeowners are totally clueless about how it works.

That's only the case if you prequalify with the fact that the said angler is also proficient in some other techniques.

ive hooked up a couple of times but farmed them all - defintiely gets bit tho and comes through pretty clean. All the weeds that do get stuck tend to on the line tie/knot. It also skips like a dream. I hate the mission fish personally (no confidence in it or the hook position) and I'll probably use ...

Yeah Im confused? Whats wrong with D-Shoting? Like I said, I had never used it before this week, But i can clearly see its a valuable tool, whats bad about it? Nobody is saying the dropshot is inherently bad - just that it is used far too often as an exclusive or crutch technique, much like senkos ...

As much as I love drop shotting, I see it as a tool. It is definitely not a crutch for me even if I can practically "call" em to the drop shot when the other techniques fail to solicit strikes. It doesn't mean that DS was a crutch for me, it just meant that at that time and place, the fish wanted n...

what did that go JW? that looks like its 15lbs in his arms lol

scratchin is probably more the line going through the guides

ive done ok on panfish at night in the arboretum before but the bugs are a PITA so i dont really do it. Ive seen some folks do ok on catfish there too. might want to think about getting a fishing light (underwater) or maybe even some chumming (legal on washington) if you're gonna be stationary on th...

grub. trig if from shore.

i personally like revenge or blade runner heads.
