Guide endorsement Dave Stewart/ Fred McClintock

[thebassman30]

You guys continue to misinterpret and further misrepresent my postings. You both need to get out from behind that computer and jack some jaws...now....today!

Clarification:
I always check Dave's report before I go to KY and have thought about hiring him. I got nothing but love the Bass Buster. Plus he's put people on sooooo many 10+lbers. What's the total up to now Dave 26-27? Strong!

I've learned more from articles written w/comments from Fred than any other guide. I also think John Davis is another fantastic option based on recent reports.

That has got to be one of the toughest jobs....period.
Thanks guys for sticking with it for such little compensation!
Nothing but love and respect!!

I wanted to let you know that I really enjoy many of your posts. They are very well thought out and informative....occassionally funny 8^)

Thanks for sharing info man!

thebassman30 I was just teasing you a little. You seem like a very informed fisherman. Sometimes post don't come across in written text the way they were intended. I'm just a middle of the road fisherman, nowhere near good enough to compete with the tournament guys. I have learned most of what I know about smallmouth movements and patterns from articles in In-fisherman and Bassmaster by Fred McClintock also. No hard feeling and look forward to more post by you. Now that we know each other a bit better I can see where you are coming from. I am pretty opinionated but try to do it in a way to be respectful to others (not sure if it comes across that way). By the way I'm 43, got my screen name "Plowboy" from a buddy that I served with in the Navy . He was from Mississippi and called himself the Mississippi Plowboy on the radio. I was an electronic tech on an aircraft carrier with him. I worked on radar, communications and devices to scramble over the air communications. I guess plowboy makes me sound like a dumb country boy. Anyway I guess I'm a bit jealous of those Canadian trips but one day maybe I'll make it up that way. Good fishin..... and your right I need to be on the water but this night shift really messes with my fishing.

Cool story on the name. I've got several members of my family that have served in the military....almost did myself.....my dad kept me out of that experience.

I'm looking for a free website to post pictures on so I can link it back to the board....do you know of one?

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Mar-22-06 AT 05:56PM (EST)[/font][p]I think yahoo photos would work. It allows you to share on the web. also shutterfly.com try to link to this to see if it works. These are a couple of bass that I caught in Florida. I was about 20 lbs heavier then so I'm not crazy about showing the pictures but the fish look good. http://tacoma200.dell.shutterfly.com...21b334c1c965de

Thanks for the tip....I posted our Dale trip photos under the Dale Trip discussion.

Nice fish....I've caught a few of those on shiners....yeah...I was cheat'n......My wallet felt like I was buying Lucky Craft Shiners though. $18/dozen is rough.

Auctually they were caught on a worm and senko. A cold front came through the day before and the wind was so high they (bait suppliers) could not cast for shinners. But we still managed a few good fish. The guide has access to private lakes with lots of big fish. But shinners were the game plan we just couldn't find any, sold out before we could get any. Three trips to Florida and three cold fronts. Surely one day I'll get there during stable weather.
