Welcome to the BB ISRAEL!!! I live on lake erie in MI. Around here, we got some giant small and large mouths, along with silver, white, and rock bass. On the big lake, when trolling for walleye, with crawler harness, i pick up a number of bass when walter isent around,,, (they like those worms with spinners thumpin!) Casting, any crank bait i throw allways produces 4 to 6 lb smallies, no matter what color. In the creeks and streams here, i simply tie on a white 3/8th oz. jig on 4 lb. test flouralcarbon line and jig slowly to shore. I had a member here tell me about the new berkly frenzy shad that worked well for him for walleyes, and i got 5 that day with them! That night, we went to my brothers creek and got 4 nice 3 lb. large mouth??? Ive found that its realy timeing for bass, not all these fancy new lures and artificial baits you se on the market, my nephew has a basement full of them and he cant figure out why i catch more fish than him! Allso, if shore fishing on a slow running stream, tie a #10 bait saver hook on light test line 4/6 lb. and just put a minnow on it, (hook it threw the under of its jaw so the tip is sticking out its mouth) throw it up stream, and let it do the work. Hope you have luck with these as i did, and again,,, WELCOME TO THE BB!!!

Welcome to the bb. You joined one of the best fishing clubs / chat boards on line. 90% of the info you get here is right on the mark and the other fishers are more then happy to answer any questions you may have. Just remember the only stupid question is the one not asked. Don't forget too that you can search older posts for answers to questions too. Most times the answers been posted before but if not fire away, were all happy to share secrets and tips here. That is what makes this club great. We all work at making us all better fishers. As fishers we reserve the right to tell fishing stories up to 15 min. or 45 inches which ever comes first. Ha Ha Ha.
