    [QUOTE=chaunc; Cant hide your boat and they'll all be lookin for you.[/QUOTE]
    Just in case the sarcasm didnt come through I was just pickin at ole whiskers. I'm definitely not a boat chaser. Never fished sledd and I don't plan on starting. That being said there are an awful lot of people that troll the forums trying to pick up any shred of info to flock to and I'm sure being a well known and very productive guide is gonna make you a target for those that prefer to let others do the leg work. Having that super awesome boat don't help you keep a low profile either.

    I picked up on it. Got a good laugh out of it. No problem We all know pick'n when we hear it. I'm one of the worst! Ask my buddies.

    It is a fact that if you catch a few fish there are gonna be folks that follow you. Heck I'v had guys pull up and drop their darn anchor right in the middle of the bed I was fish'n. It's gonna happen. I've watched guys follow other guides as well as some of my buddies.

    There are some darn good fishermen in this area and I am lucky enough to be able to call many of them my friend. That is probably the single thing that helps me catch more fish. We have a pretty tight network of friends that swap info. Not on spots or bays (HINT HINT!!!), but more on techniques, colors, speed, depth, water color, etc... We honor each other's space and give as well as receive info. You can't put a price tag on that kinda friendship. They have made me a better fisherman. That's kinda what CDC does... It allows for an exchange of info. You can cover a lot of water that way.

    Now, with that being said... You CAN give out a little TOO MUCH info! Hint Hint!!!

    I will warn everyone that I do have a little bit of an ornery streak in me and I love a good joke. Sooooooo... If you choose to follow the purple boat, 1. You better have a big motor! 2. Be prepared for a wild goose chase!

    I had a n ol'boy in a jon boat watching me year before last. He was setting back and lining me up! I noticed every time I left a spot he'd run right over there, mark it, and fish it. I though "why you ol'fart, I'll have some fun with you!" I started going to random spots, throwing out a marker and just setting there fishing dead water. After about the second or third time, I think he saw me laugh'n at him and figured out what I was do'n. I woulda done that all day if he'd have stuck with it!

    There's one bay on this lake that I just about won't fish. It's a good bay too. It's just that I have some friends that have invested a lot of time, money, and effort into putting stuff out. There is about a 90% chance that anything I stumble across in that bay, is gonna be something they have put out. Now I ain't gonna lie... If I find it, I'm gonna mark it and fish it. I'm not without sin!

    Bottom line boys... If you wanna get away from the crowds do like me and my buddies do. Fish when it's about 35 degrees and everybody else is setting on the couch at the house watch'n a ball game.

    Pretty well said there.
    If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.:rolleyes:
