I just bought a boat(96 skeeter ss140 115hp johnson) in December no serious graphs yet(garmin 7sv coming soon) just a little hook on the console. I fish lake worth weekly? Anybody got any hints? My lineups lately consist of jerkbaits, rattletraps and dropshots. AF Vet-F16 Crew Chief-96 Skeeter SS140-JNGcustomcranks

Worst weekend i�ve had fishing in a year, on any body of water. Fished one place today where its normally like shooting fish in a barrel and couldn�t catch one drop shotting.
