Thanks for the input and for hearing me out. I've learned a lot from this site and from the various posts, but I'd also say that I get a certain amount of entertainment value from reading the reports as well. They're that good. They're great reading - like picking up an issue of a bass magazine of some sort.

I'm trying to think outside the box and learn as much as I can. It would help if I could get out more often than I do, but I manage with the time I have. I have tried lots of things and I'm gaining confidence in certain things for sure. One thing I know is that I hate senko fishing!

You guys are awesome to share what you do - you go way above and beyond the call of duty. I think you've done a lot to advance the sport and if it wasn't for this site, I'd probably still be soaking some power bait some where looking for hatchery trout. You rescued me from that!

Thanks again.
