>>805185I haven't done much river fishing in years, but there are a couple general tips when fishing rivers for predators including bass:
-cast upstream and retrieve bait downstream, the fish will normally be facing upstream and waiting for an easy meal floating downstream.
-look for areas of slow water like bends, drop-offs, any underwater structure. The predator fish (bass) will hang out in the slow moving water and wait for something to pass by in the current. So a good bet is to cast upstream near these spots and retrieve right on the edge of the slower moving water.
>>805184I never claimed that they were the brightest people. Especially these days it is getting worse and there are so many retards and/or foreigners who think they can take a 2 month class, get their Class A, and make $100k their first year out.
Most of my customers love me because I'm not a total retard and have a little pride in my job. There are so many lazy ass nigs who do this job and piss everybody off. That's why I hate when they put me on a route I don't run much because people think you are going to act like them. With my regular stores, I just tell them it's all there, they sign, and I do my thing and get out of there.
>>805183It's funny because I post it every thread and people still get worked up. I try and get in there like 2nd or 3rd post so everybody sees it. The 'tism is strong in those knife collector threads.
>>805179No problem. Best bet when running braid is to cast easy with the breaks and tension nice and high after you have a fish or snag that pulled the line out. At least that will minimize the backlash. I still haven't figured out how to completely avoid it but at least I'm aware of it now. I guess I could pull 20yds-30yds of line out by hand to make sure it doesn't get caught. But after that next cast, it will always be fine.
