Northwest Fishing Reports

Your on the right track. You definatly want to start learning to use one. Like Natetreat said that Curado would be perfect. You can use it for a lot of different applications. You could practice out in the backyard with different weights and really get a good feel for it. Sorry Tom but it beats the ...

Were you able to learn something from your bass experiece? Find some laydowns or other areas that will hold bass? That might narrow down your search next time.

No sweat, those are all good bait's. As far as I'm concerned the challenge will be presentation and location. The fall of your jig could be the deal. Spring'n that worm out of the weeds might do it. Dead sticking that worm might. As well as a bunch of other presentations, but if there's nothing ther...

Hey Camron, Go in with a game plan but be flexable. I would maybe aproach it with the idea of throwing your worm and maybe a pig and jig mixed in for sure or at least a big jig. I'd also have a have a spinnerbait or a chatterbait tied so you can throw that once in a while like around stumps, laydown...

Sorry rockjiggr, but when my novice bass buddy pulled one out and tied one on in my boat about 15 years ago (gift from mother in-law) I thought it was a joke. My experience is it caught a fish. We both laughed. In fact it's still a joke to this day. "On a side note, now I am thinking of applications...

Got my baits today and I'm stoked. I like the baits. The timing of the contest and the lakes I'll be fishing.......well I feel almost like I'm stealing candy from a baby Biggest problem I see is not losing em. Have fun everybody =d>

Thanks Tom. Good luck :thumleft:

Although they would catch fish, there are better swimbaits on the market. Like the Basstrix hollow bellies and you can get them at your local tackle shop, not some gimmicky TV infomercial.[/quote]
I'm with FnF on this one. What a joke. :geek:

Hi Mike, Any idea on the dates yet? Sounds like were about ready to get this baby going.

Dude, i feel your pain. I did the same thing down at Hood River last week. Put one of the trebles in the top of my index finger at the base of my fingernail past the barb because of a fiesty smally. I was on an adrenaline rush and freezing hands. grabbed my needle nose and before I could thing about...

Word :thumright

I can`t figure it out. Maybe someone else can.:-k From the looks of it I`d say it was a tough couple days and tough competition. At least one day was. I see a couple blanks on the board all the way down. Congrats anyway for making it this far.[thumbsup] Dez is well on his way. Looks like the top 7 ...

FnF, Gene actually fishes for Wyoming. I meet him last year at the Divisionals at Yellowtail Resevior in Montana. His son, Eric also fished the Nationals as a boater. Big time bassin family.

Food for thought. Pre fished this weekend for up coming tourney. 12 hours Saturday, no bass. 1st 3 hours Sunday, no bass. Finally figured it out and wacked em till I split. Better stick to trout Mark. Also I caught up to 5# rainbows with bass gear.

Awesome strike. When I first saw the video my first thought was 'Why in the world is he using a spinning outfit' When I first started bass fishing, I basically used anything I had in regards to gear. Like most of us I've evolved my bass fishing thru the years. Fish will always be caught. But thru th...

14" minimum sounds good. Marky Mark. relax man, your way overthinking it Let's go out and have some fun. I think it will be fun to see some fish caught all around the state. I'll try to be easy on you...not...

Hi Nick, Larry Austin here (we fished together in the qualifiers at potholes last year) I'm interested in a couple rods. I sent you a PM with my number. Call me when you can. Take care

This all sounds like fun to me. I like the baits. Like most of you I hope the dates work out because if they do your all going down I'll be looking forward to fishing with F n F on the CoeurD'Alene when it's all said and done.

I'm in. It sounds like fun.
