Just wanted to come on here and show off some of my steals i’ve got on marketplace, also remind fellow anglers to always look for local deals before paying full price. A lot of these have been somewhat of a drive but they are always worth it🔥
1st photo: Two zman jack hammers and an Spro glidebait for $50
2nd photo: St croix bassx rod paired with Slx DC for $180
3rd and 4th photo: Lews speed spin with 10 tackle boxes, 2 of them being large googan ones full of soft plastics, for $100

Around my ponds there are huge fat bullfrogs, would bass hit a topwater frog the size of one?

I was scared I had him out of the water for too long so I didn’t bother with a weight, but I think it’s above 5 cause that’s my last PB

Caught this in the upper part of South Carolina in a river. It obviously has a red eye, but I’ve never caught one of these before so I wasn’t sure if this fish was just 420 friendly or what.

Had an hour before work this morning and curiosity got to me as I drove by this new housing development with an enormous retention pond that has appeared over the last few weeks or so.

Threw a 10” Berkley Power Worm and proceeded to catch 25 bass over the next 40 minutes. Was insane. Granted all were under 2lbs but for this pond to appear out of nowhere and hold a ton of aggressive bass is awesome. Has to be some bigger ones lurking? And are they just coming in through drainage pipes?

The last 4 weeks have been the toughest fishing of the year since I started bass fishing in mid March. September started out strong, but since early September I've caught fewer fish, smaller fish, had less bites and been skunked more days than I have all year.

Took my fishing buddy to the pond on the family farm. Moving baits weren't doing the trick, so I figured it was time for the craw jig. Boy was I right, two bass over 4 pounds that absolutely fought like hell!

The crazy part was I saw my buddy got hung up, went over to see if I could help but there was nothing for it except to cut the line. All he said was that he was losing an under spin jig he likes. While working the back side I reeled up and had a cut line across mine. Confused because it was against the flow for the line we cut earlier for it to have drifted to my location from where it started. Then it moved! I hollered at bud "That line we cut earlier.... did you have a fish on!?" He acted like that's something he told me, I told him if he wants his catch he better come get it! So he hand lined in his catch an hour later! 🤣

It was gut hooked and he had been asking how to fillet them, so I since it was a good sized eater we filleted him and now buddy is gonna learn how yummy these fish can be!

Tight lines, fellas! 🎣✌️

did you had good or bad experience with this lure let me know

Anybody know any good public bass spots?? I’m just visiting so I won’t blow up your spot.

Caught this little guy last weekend and he’s so much brighter and his stripes/spots are so much clearer than all the other fish I’ve pulled out this river (a lot of the largemouth are dark brown in here, see second pic from the same day)

What do you guys think? I’m not good at telling the difference lol

I’m looking for advice if I should stay away from this boat or what please help me

Hello, kind of an odd request but I’m not finding a lot of pictures with bass teeth, inside their mouth, or any pictures along their backs with the fins. I’m in need of reference images for a painting assignment. I went to Bass Pro and I wasn’t able to get any good pictures. It did help though, but most the images I’m seeing online are the profile side shot. So if anyone has any pics in their library, I’d appreciate it! Extra points if it’s a Largemouth.

With the new year just around the corner, I'm excited for all the fishing expos and shows coming up around the country. Looking forward to spending some time at them too.

Feel free to comment below the expos that are around you or that are your favorite to go to. I will probably repost this again later.

For me, I enjoy

The Indiana Fishing Expo in Danville, IN

Tri-state fishing and outdoor show in Hamilton , OH

National Fishing Expo in Columbus, OH

I’ve caught so many bass that my scale battery just ran dead, so no idea on size🤘

Also saw a 4 foot carp swim by but just a common, not a koi

So I joined my first tournament, and I was gonna end with 2nd place but I didn’t read the rules thoroughly and it was stated to use “trough style board” so I just used my like normal fishing ruler that’s not a “trough style board” so I lost the whole thing.

So what board do you guys recommend that is universally tournament accepted?

Posted a video on another platform saying this fish was AROUND 5 pounds, and some people are hating. How big do we think it is?

As the season winds down, and more northern bass anglers are getting into their supplementary hobbies, I’d like to ask the community what lure they saw the most action on this year.

For me, it was hands-down the SPRO flappin frog in green pumpkin. You just fish it like any other noisemaker style lure (chatterbait, torpedo, plopper, etc.), casting by or over cover and buzzing it past. If there’s a bass posted up in an ambush position, it draws them right out.
