When I started keeping a record of my fishing trips, water temp, depth, bait used, weather conditions, where structure is located my catching rate went way way up. Then I found C.C and lurked for some time before joining. I read about everything from leadhead size to water color and back again. C.C members have really helped a lot by sharing information. I read books by Tim Huffman, Steve Wunderlee, Al Linder again my catch rate increased. I left my bass tackle at home because of temptation to go back to fishing for bass. THANKS C.C for all the tips!!!!!!
