He gives you a complete write up with how to fish each location and even gives you the trail line the boat should be on and the spots you want to cast to.

I had Donald do a write for me and was blown away at the amount of detail. The only reason I don't have a success story for it like these other guys is because I simply haven't put in the time to use it.

This^^^

Ive had him do several lakes for me and here are some lessons I�ve learned.

1) Don�t expect every spot to have fish. It�s not a miracle cure for catching. It simply breaks a lake down and gives you several high percentage locations and a strategy on how to fish them. I use his map work until I figure out what�s working and repeat it all over the lake.

2) The map work REALLY cuts down the time it takes to figure out a new lake or one you haven�t been to in a while. All these guys who post about going to a new lake and need pointers should really invest in Mr. Harpers map work. It would definitely increase their chances of a successful trip.

3) Confidence. Often I see what he suggests is in line with what I�m already doing. I tend to not second guess myself as much in those situations.

Boom! Giant!

That's awesome, get a map, follow his instructions, and get a PB?? That's sounding like a winner. Congrats. I'm still looking for my first 10 pounder.

Big head, you nailed in on the head with your comments. It's about eliminating dead water, and timing. All those spots seems to be good for holding fish at one time or another. It's just a matter of probability. He told me that the 20 spots will yield maybe 3 good ones. If I get that, I'd be thrilled for what I paid for his immense amount of work that he puts into it.

Phototex, thanks for the note. Help my understand your comment "nice video sans music". I think this means you didn't like the music? I struggle with having music that's not disruptive to the video, but that's good feedback, and I appreciate it.

Thats the beauty of this forum. Guys like Don who love fishing that are willing to help others with time and wisdom. Texas is the best place to be

I had alot of people ask about integrating Navionics, Google Earth, and importing into fish finder. There's alot of good information out there, but none that put it together. I went ahead and stayed home from the heat to create the how-to's for doing this. Give it a try and let me know if you need any help.

Mr. Harpers jigs, spinners and a chatterbait that I got from him are second to none! I only have the nightcrawler and minnow scents, but they seem to put fish in the boat! Been too hot for me lately, but when it cools down(October) with the tips lures and scents I have, I Know it will be a great fall and winter! Wait and see what he is doing with his mapping! It'll blow you away!!!!

I'm embarrassed. The music you used is just fine as is. When I first watched your video, I didn't realize that my wife had turned off the sound. I simply was glad to watch a fishing video without having to listen to annoying music - to me, most fishing video sound tracks are horrid.

Dude, that looks like a new world record in that picture. Of course holding it that far away from your body makes it look like you caught it on a 3lb buzzbait! Sorry, couldn�t help it! Nice fish!

Don spends many hours on each and every map assignment, and is pleasant to share the boat with as well. Looking forward to him coming back out again, and going on Giant Bass Hunt with me. Can't tell you how many guys get on the boat with his lures in hand. Don keep up all of the good work that you do for all of us Bass Nuts here on the TFF.

Nice fish. Congratulations on the PB!

WTG, Mr. Donald Harper! And great fish, too.

Busted. It does look huge doesn't it! Next time, I'll round it up to something more reasonable, not 8.5, but more like 18.5
