What Camera are you using? I want to buy one for my prowler 15

@Vaker4424 a cheap cannon point and shoot on video mode, using a tripod that is a clamp (purchased in REI) placed somewhere in the front of the cockpit. nothing fancy at all.

nice! when do the fish start showing up again or is it too early?

[drewtonium]

its not too early at all. head on out and try your luck. the fish are shallow in the spring and fall

[jdoum1096]

is that in great kills?

[sifisto]

I fish with a guy that looks like you, even fishes like you; best of all he catches like you. I hope he calls me when he first starts to catch in early spring, I don't want to miss out on anything. You're the man Drew,and damn proud to know you.

[MrJoseph228]

I'm going to assume you're some 14 year old kid who just started fishing who got told that by some guy. I've got news for you, there's plenty of big bass here. You just have to know where to find them. And good luck with that, because unlike jersey, no one is going to tell you about their secret spots. Here's a hint, that is most often true for jersey and LI also: If you look around and see other people fishing, you're in the wrong place. Good luck.
