I've been waiting for this thread to head in this direction. Lake Tahoe is a big bass factory!!

Some do it to protect their income(guides) and others are simply a figment of their own imagination.

Why do people not use their real names on forums such as this? I don't understand that either, I would assume so people can hide behind their computers and take shots at people when they want without having to be held accountable for what they say or the opinions that they care to share.

I have learned alot about fishing from talking to people and reading books, and taking the approach of learning and trying to always learn something about the behaviors particularly those habits of big bass. Some people perceive that as trying to steal spots, baits, etc.. real fishermen know that it's not about stealing something or fishing someone's hole, its about learning patterns and techniques and then trying to apply your specific techniques and ideas and learn more about what the fish are doing. And passing that along to like minded fishermen and younger kids, etc.. the art of fishing, especially big bass, structure fishing is a constant, evolving conversation. One that most of us love, and become very addicted to.

Wrong. We are all just laughing at yall. Reality check? The ones blurring backgrounds are the ones trying to see where others are from the backgrounds. Obviously they are the ones thinking about it....

People like myself and others in the thread questioning don't take it that seriously, and readily share spots, baits, etc.

My view is we all benefit that way. What says you caught the biggest fish off the spot with your tackle and skill set or ever will? Maybe if you share someone will show you even better fish there. If you aren't a guide or pro, it's absurd, and even then if you're too lazy to turn 90 degrees for a photo you're silly. If someone wanted to find where you were fishing they would still do it.

Its crazy but there are some good bass in the Lake Tahoe Keys marina. A lot of guys will come up from Cali and fish for them. Very interesting seeing a bass boat on that lake.

Same fish...same brush pile...10 months apart...9.8 then 10.41...it happens



that being said...blurred pictures are silly

I fish tournaments. You can rest assured when I post a picture on here it isn't remotely even close to where I caught it.

You won't be beating my spots to death. To hell with sharing.. you put in the time, effort and money ....and find fish by yourself. You are a good fisherman when you can find your own.... If you stare at pictures hoping to find somebody else's fish... then you are a wannabe.

You tag it or what? How does one know it's the same fish? Nice fish regardless. Glad you didn't blur the background so we all know where to go every day for a year to catch her at least once.... what's she like to eat?
