Good morning all. New member here from Central Ill. My Name Doug, I have been in this area for about 2 years, prior to that spent 5 years in Tampa Fl, 1 Year in Atlanta Ga and 21 years throughout the pacific (Navy) Was born in Iowa and raised in Prairie du Chien WI. I am obsessed with Fishing. Specifically smallmouths. I primarily fish spinning gear but intend to work on baitcasters this year, and will focus on jig fishing. Unfortunately I am shore bound but not letting that keep me from the water.
I see some folks here from another site I frequent. Found my way here via Gotstafish's website links.

Welcome to the site.

I wish Florida had some Smallmouth bass. One of the rivers in the panhandle near Pensacola is actually cold enough year round to easily support Smallmouth as well as Brown Trout. I thought about putting some of those in there once just teasing. It would be sweet though.
