Thanks gents! That bass bug may bite ya in Indy but it's sure hard to find the itch sometimes! I caught my PB a 7.2lb on Monroe during a BFL. Didn't get down there to fish them at all this year but I guess they were on fire pre-spawn. My big question for these lakes out here is NAVIGATION. I bought the navionics platinum but still saw on there while looking at Lewisville "STANDING TIMBER" in 30fow.. How is a guy suppose to navigate around these places without sinking a boat or even worse, hurting yourself?!

Most lakes have boat lanes data you buy for you gps system. For instance search "Lance Vick, Boat Lanes" and a site should pop up. He's got a lot of them. They do cost money, but they are fairly cheap. Otherwise, it's always best to head to new water with someone who knows the lake well. Lastly, when in doubt, idle!

Welcome. Go slow in your new boat on new waters. The lakes are all very full finally and that makes them very dangerous.
