I'm gonna start a YouTube channel, Wawi's weekly waypoints and give away a spot a week on squaw from October to Feb. I would get a bunch of subscribers and flat tires at the ramp I think. I might even charge 2.99 for them. Squaw is different. It's one little community hole. If a spot is open stop and fish, if not move on to the next one.

It's sort of a community hole, for those that know. There is no need to make it easy.

My opinion...... I would like Bill to keep the waypoints he has worked so hard to come by to himself. General areas and patterns are cool. I want the public to bust there butts with time on the water to find those spot on a spot themselves. I am against instant gratification in fishing.

I have not had a chance to fish any of the lakes from the show but I sure some of y'all have gone and fished the spots that he has shown. I like to know if you did any good being that the shows are about 4 or 5 week old when you see them.

It is what it is, the show is obviously successful so the negative thoughts are the minority. I like the show and will continue to watch it, but i also havent watched the show to specifically find where he is fishing and run to it on the water. He does a great job at explaining his thoughts when on the water and is honest about why he chooses certain spots. Whether its because he has caught fish there before or if its a specific structure/cover he is looking for.

I can tell you after Bill's show on Monti, the North end got beat to death with frogs to where the fish were watching frogs go by and down there identifying the brand. Probably went something like this: Fish #1: "Hey Ken, look, another poppin frog!...... wow.... shocker!" Fish #2: "No Jim, that's a scum frog" Fish #1: "Ken, that's a poppin frog! Look at the splash after the overweight white guy on the front of the boat gives it a couple tugs!" Fish #2: "Hey, wow, look at that. You're right. You would think after all these frogs being thrown since Honey Hole aired, I'd know the difference. Hehe!" Fish #1: "Yea, come on Ken, get it together. We're frog experts now." Just a thought

He did that same frog show on Monte last year. Went back this year and wore them out on the same spot. Maybe it has something to do with skill. 
And I know who "Jeff" is.

The same thing happen here on lake Waco after Barry Strokes SWO aired about fish for whites. It looked like a gold rush for two weeks.

When I want to internet prefish for my next tournament I just write a post a here saying I'm taking Granddad, a kid, or a nun recovering from the burns she received rescuing toddlers from a burning school bus fishing.
"I'm not asking for anyone's honey holes, but it sure would make me happy if ol' Granddad, who was wounded 84 times while raising the flag at Iwo Jima, could feel something tugging on his line just one last time. Preferable largemouth bass in the five pounds or bigger class..."

I laugh at the guys who the ink they're the only ones that know about certain spots. I fish a lot during the week, due to work. Was fishing a spot on Ray Roberts, guy pulls up "who told you about this spot" I just chuckled and said I found it on TFF and he didn't seem to happy. Even though I found it years before TFF, it's a bridge that's not on any maps or anything but a lot of guys fish it and this guy thought he was the only human being who had ever fished it

Wilcox needs no help finding spots,he's fished Benbrook for years, look at the past episodes of benbrook, used the same chartreuse pepper fry. Its funny some think they have an exclusive spot on these city lakes that get pounded regularly. I personally wouldn't drive longer than 25 mins to fish Benbrook.Honey hole is and will continue to be a hit, don't get itchy when it airs, just avoid that lake for about 2 weeks.
