Very impresive fishing, Art. We met month or so ago in Clonea. I was fishing with my cousin. You gave me tip about diging lug. Next time i went, I dug about hundred of them in an hour. Reading your predictable fishing theory, helped me to cach my first bass few weeks ago . I'm trying to cach one on plugs. Is it a bit too early yet?
