  1. #IceFishing today 10f. I’m with you on traffic. We don’t have a red light. You see more side x sides, 4 wheelers, dirt bikes, snow machines and lawn mowers on the road cars lol. The U.P. Small town living at its finest.

  2. This might make you laugh… I’m from Orlando and I’m old enough to remember people driving down the road on tractors in Orlando!

    Also, this time last year I was also cursing the traffic in Orlando area and wondering how the hell it got more irritating than the suburbs of New York City 😂

    Anyway keep catching them up down there! Hope you’re having a blast! Wish I could be joining you all on the Bassmaster trail this year but I don’t think I’m going to be able to make any of the events at all. However, by this time next year I’ll be almost a local 🙂

  3. I can't see any way in which the many years of kayak bass angling, cannot provide a bass angler in a bass boat, with a few different ideas or perspectives. In particular in how to fish an area, how to move around in it. What kinds of lure casts to throw. Am I right in that assumption, or not? The only thing I can think of. David Dudley put emphasis on it, when testing rods, baits, techniques, a bass boat is a distance above the water level. Byron Velvick had a serious bust up with his fellow west coast angler Aaron Martens once (where Aaron was in line for the win, they were fishing close by, and Aaron was wound up a bit on the fourth day). Byron said something interesting (one competitor who knows how to fish, observing the strategy of another). Byron noticed something. In the area, the angler Byron said needed to fish slower. And he said Aaron lost his win, because he couldn't. Instead he jumped around, on that fourth day. I just wonder about that. Does kayak angling help a boat angler to know how to fish slower, or not? I.e. You stand on a boat deck, and you just forget everything you know from kayaks? How does that work?

    That is not to say, that one does not need to know how to accelerate in one's angling, when fishing from a boat at times. Ott de Foe, spoke about having baits to fish fast, and some baits he could use to go a lot slower with (so he didn't miss fish in a productive area). Lots of the boat dock, shallow shore line anglers operate quite fast. Faster than one could, if one was on a kayak. When Kristine Fischer moves from kayak to the boat, does Kristine have to push herself a bit, in order to learn techniques which lend themselves to more rapid area coverage? I guess, a KVD or someone being an obvious example of it. He made faster fishing work for him (and then the flip side of it, Byron mentioned that at times Aaron did need to know how to fish slower, but he wouldn't do it).

  4. Kristie, try that yozuri jerky out! I'll start heading down next week Tuesday. It's going to start having that warm wind hopefully for the tournament – Daniel USMC

  5. I’m seeing the winning trophy held up by you in this tournament coming up Kristine. You have the positive mind set and the skills to match it. Rember don’t get the hungry man breakfast before the tournament 😂. You got this I know it. Good luck and safe travels. Stay safe
