    You should come and fish in the Panhandle today. With 15" of rain and only 20mph winds, I'll be able to fish from my back porch in Tallahassee. WAHOO! 🤠👍

      Dang! That’s a lot of water.
      We’re so dry here, 15 inches of rain would have us dancing in the street.
      Well, swimming most likely but we’d take it.

    With a front and back spinner you would think it would make more commotion than it does. Barely does anything. I used to use a nip-i-diddee and I caught some giants when I was young. Loved that lure.

    Roland I recently read an article on florida bass. In the article they were discussing that research has indicated that florida strain large mouth are a stand alone species and not a sub species of the northern strain. Have your heard any talk about this being so familiar with florida bass? I've often thought that they had distinct characteristics that set them apart

I don't mean to knock roland martin but I've caught bass in every way opposite to what roland claims is the best to fish the '' devils horse '' : 1 - '' super slow retrieve '' ... caught bass on a straight '' buzzing '' retrieve, 2 '' clear water... caught them in muddy water as well, 3 '' warm water ''... caught them in cold water ( 45 degrees ), '' calm water ''... caught them in choppy water, '' low light conditions ''... some of my best days were under bluebird skies. I've learned to let the fish tell me what they want, not what I think they want.
