Hi John! I have the same exact rod too! (or I should say Casey does). My 2 cents for someone looking to purchase one: Buy it from Dick's. They have a GREAT extended warranty plan, worth the extra money. I believe they will replace the rod if broken once a year, for 2 years! The tip broke off last fa...

Great post John, I agree with everything you said. My thoughts on getting the younger new crowd exposed to Buck's teachings. I feel it will be just like the previous 2 generations, MAYBE 1 guy out of 100 will stick with it for more than a year. Actually, I think with the new millennial's, it will be...

Welcome Dennis!
I looked up your home lake, looks like a great lake, especially for structure fishing!
have you fished these structures? Looking at the navionics map, looks like good stuff!
Fishing Texas is on my bucket list, hope to make a trip down there within the next couple of years...

I'm looking forward to 2018 fishing! I always enjoy and look forward to fishing new lakes, especially reservoirs. I fished old Hickory for the first time last year, it is one of my favorite places to fish now. It's a classic delta reservoir with a great population of bass, big saugers and pure strip...

We had a great trip. Forgot how much fun we had til I watched some of the video's.
We caught over 75 bass fishing 3 days, 6 hours each day.

Hi Kraig... I troll the shallows pretty much like the book tells us too. (contour troll). Buck says to fish the shallows from the surface down to 8-10 feet (meaning you can run free in the shallows) I don't run free that much. I think the question often asked is how long to spend in the shallows. As...

This past July 4th/5th at Petenwell. I had to add the last clip in from Mendota from the 6th. It's a classic...

Post away! I'd like to see it too! Several years ago I was given an electronic copy of every article Buck wrote in Fishing Facts. It will take some time to locate them, but they are on one of my many hard drives. I made the mistake of asking someone back then about posting them. But please post it. ...
