I love me some bass fishing! Haven't done it in years as I'm a boat snob and don't have a boat. I think we're planning on going sometime this year with friends and bank fish with some friends so their daughter can give fishing a try.

I have never caught a pike, they aren't native to this area but have always wanted to. Those bad boys look mean and get huge! 

I haven't been fishing is a long time;   as a kid I would go every weekend with my Dad and as I got older there was a set of ponds a few miles from my house so I would bank fish after school.   

While Northern Pike aren't native to our area,   I am surprised you haven't caught a chain pickerel;  slightly different variety but I would think they would be in TN.

There are some MONSTER northern pikes. Not quite Muskie status but still big

I have never caught one and looking them up, they do inhabit some areas around here. I guess none of my lures have never looked appetizing to them. I did once hook a gar, saw it jump out of the water and noticed the distinctive snout as it snapped my line. 

It kind of made me mad, that was one of my favorite lures it stole. @BKervin, I've never had the opportunity to taste pike, but I bet you can get some pretty good size fillets out of them. I would like to get my hands on some walleye again. My ex brother-in-law caught some at Dale Hollow lake and they were phenomenal!

Pike are definitely different, 1st time I cautioned I thought I had a log that could swim!

Good morning and Happy Monday Spies,

I had an eventful weekend. I posted my final review of the Paradym X irons. Friends visited from out of town and I got very squishy feet while attending the PGA Championship on Saturday. Today is an eye exam and tomorrow is a dentist appointment. Hoping to fitting in some golf in there.

have a great day.

Good morning! It is a beautiful morning with the birds chirping, the skies blue, and the coffee hot and flowing! This week is our last full week of school this year and the weather is supposed to be beautiful all week. Hoping for a lot of time outside, as well as some good golf to be played. I'm planning on getting out this evening and hitting some balls and working on my short game and putting. I'm headed to the Ozarks this weekend for my bachelor party to play golf so I need to get ready for that! Have a day everyone!

Good morning everyone, got to play a couple holes Friday before we had a family snafu that caused me to have to head back home (not a big deal with a membership) but it was great to get some on course shots with the Edels. The it was a very busy weekend with some errands, family time and a small bit of travel to do all that. Hoping to get more course time one afternoon this week, before camping this coming weekend. Hope everyone has a great Monday!

GM Y'all- Hope y'all had a great weekend. The Tournament that I was supposed to play in on Saturday got CNX'd. So, since I was there, and my clubs were there, and the course was beckoning........... I ended up shooting one of my best overall rounds in a LONG time (DESPITE a 4 Putt double. In my defense, that particular green has more dips and changes of direction than a Coney Island Roller Coaster🙃). Everything (except my putting) just fell into place. This was my approach to #4 from about 100 out(yes I DID make that one). Got another tournament (that WILL  actually happen) on Thursday at one of the better courses in the area. Hopefully my putting will improve and the rest of my game will carry over. I was extremely impressed with Michael Block and I was hoping that he was gonna finish a little bit higher than he did. He made a helluva good showing though. Hope that golf is in everyone's day and if it's not,- we'll get there soon.

Really great photo capturing the ball bruise in the grass but also has a Spy VS Spy look to your shadow! LOL

Oh new idea of head to head competition between MGS Forum members, Spy VS Spy on whatever captures the imagination, would make a great thread in the competition threads 🏆
