Hello Anglers,
You can get a far greater effect from bass attracting scents
if you add them to your worm yourself. A few drops will coat
enough worm or lizard and make the scent much more effective.
The scent if much more likely to be available for the bass
to notice it.

Enjoy a week of fishing!

Fishing From The Back
By Chris Horton
Well, here I am just a couple of weeks from the start of the
tournament season and I still have not replaced my boat. I
have decided to wait on getting a boat (unless some boat
dealer calls of course) and fish from the back of the boat
this year. I have to admit, this was not the original plan
for the 2005 season but a few turns on the highway changed
that.
This being said, here is a strategy for those of you who,
like me, will be fishing from the back of the boat this
season. First, be confident. Confidence is the number one
factor in fishing from the back of the boat. If you are
fishing a team event, remember that you are just that, "a
team", so don't get caught up in trying to out fish your
own partner. If your partner catches more than you (and
they should), so be it. If you find yourself catching more
from the back than your partner is catching from the front,
your partner needs your help.
Second, be different (until a pattern is developed). I try
to do several things when fishing from the back of the boat.
If my partner is power fishing shallow then I know I can
catch some fish that he misses by pinpoint casts to nearby
cover. If he is moving fast, I know I don't have the time to
fish a Texas Rigged Worm all the way back to the boat but I
do like to pitch a jig to stumps and laydowns in this
situation.
In a team event I will try to do something a little differ-
ent than my partner until we develop a pattern. If my
partner is using a big bait, I will go smaller. If he is
using a small bait, I will go big. If he is fishing lures
that run deep, I will move up higher in the water column.
Keep trying different things until a pattern is developed.

Finally, be the same (once you have a pattern). Once you
have a pattern, don't be afraid to use the same lure as your
partner. I know this may go against conventional thinking,
but how many times have you followed another boat down a
shoreline fishing the same or similar lures and you caught
fish? If your partner is catching fish, don't worry about
using the same lure. First, he can't cast to every piece of
cover.
Second, it may be the fourth or fifth cast that makes the
fish bite. Also, try presenting your lure at a different
angle than your partner. For example, if he fishes the left
side of a piece of cover, you fish the right. Pay attention
to how your partner is fishing and fish the same lure a
little differently. You will pick up some fish that he
missed.
Fishing from the back of the boat can be a rewarding
experience. This year I will be fishing from the back of my
dad's boat in the Media Bass Slot Lakes Division. Until next
time, good fishing!!

FISHING JOKES CORNER
------------------------------------------------------------
Three guys were fishing in a lake one day, when an angel
appeared in the boat.
When the three astonished men had settled down enough to
speak, the first guy asked the angel humbly, "I've suffered
from back pain ever since I took shrapnel in the Vietnam
War ... Could you help me?"
"Of course," the angel said, and when he touched the man's
back, the man felt relief for the first time in years.
The second guy who wore very thick glasses and had a hard
time reading and driving. He asked if the angel could do
anything about his poor eyesight. The angel smiled, removed
the man's glasses and tossed them into the lake. When they
hit the water, the man's eyes cleared and he could see
everything distinctly.
When the angel turned to the third guy, the guy put his hands
out defensively -- "Don't touch me!" he cried, "I'm on a
disability pension."
