Counters went in yesterday and we absolutely love them

If you’ve been looking for a Taj Mahal that is more beige/tan this is definitely what you want to look for. We spent weeks looking at different Taj selections and they always seemed too grey.

ETA: that is not a seam next to the sink, it’s a reflection of the under cabinet lights

Caught about 10 dinks today from this guy up to about 1.5lbs. Started with whopper plopper but senko never fails to get a bite.

Technically the worms are still in transit according to tracking info.. so maybe an anonymous early Father’s Day gift? I really have no idea where it came from but I’m not complaining either

What rod should I get for this for large mouth, shore fishing, mostly plastics?

TL;DR wife caught fish Sunday, I caught same fish on Tuesday determined by stuck hook.

Wife caught this dink on Sunday after uttering the infamous phrase “this is my last cast.” It was her first time really fishing so the fish gods were listening.

I went out after work Tuesday to another part of the lake and caught the same bass, with the hook stuck that we couldn’t get out Sunday(was able to remove it this time)

I’ve seen people have this happen years later or months later but couldn’t believe it was only about 48 hours apart 🤣 wife and other family are not as impressed as I am though so I thought I’d share

Had a few dinks in between but landed some of the biggest bass I’ve caught out of this lake so far

I only got back into fishing 3-4 wks ago and have been playing around with a few different things.

Found one side of the lake where the bass are at and they’re devouring weightless Texas rig 4in senkos…

I watch kids out there all week with spinners, poppers, cranks, etc and hardly ever see them land anything. Should I steer them in the right direction or just keep it to myself?

Edit: the secret isn’t necessarily the spot, they already fish that when they rotate around the lake. The real secret is going to this lure setup, which none of them seem to have tried too much yet

Was running a 1/8oz weighted Texas rig with a 5in senko without much luck the last week or so on the neighborhood lake.. decided to switch to a weightless 4in senko and couldn’t keep them off my the hook this morning.

Not the biggest fish but a great way to get the confidence up since I’m just getting back into it after 20 years

Found my old Abu Garcia combo from ~2005 in my grandparents garage, it’s still in great shape since I didn’t use it much. Any recs on how to get this reel cleaned up and in use again? Just got back into fishing the last few weeks after 20 year hiatus

Going for bass. Thinking 7’ MH Fast as per most people’s recs. $150 budget if it’s really worth it, otherwise would like to stay under $100 for right now.

Comment any and all accessories, line, lures, etc I should be picking up when I take this thing to get spooled in the next couple of days
