OK, I can't hold it in anymore!! 2024

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

I wanted to save this till the video was ready but it looks like i won't have time to build it till the weekend, and even then, I'm going to be very busy.

Aaaaaaanyway,.....

Sunday, Eric and I got out again. With all the "shiner" talk on the board and water that has now gone below the golden 50 degree mark, we decided to throw some live ones at them this weekend. It's been a few years since either of us went shiner fishing and boy were we in for a treat!

We hit 11 fish over 4 lbs, countless 2 and 3 lbrs and personal PB's for the day of

Eric- 7.2 lbs

Me- 6.9 lbs

Another 5 fish were also caught on jigs. A limit,....on jigs,...in 49 degree water. We were pumped.

Aside from the bag from heaven, we had one of those days where you just laugh all day. Fishing shiners, with no pressure, really brought back the old school feeling of comeraderie on the water. Brought us right back to the first time I brought him there 17 yrs ago, the yr we met.

Great times, Fall video coming, will post ASAP.

George Welcome reply :

I always say - shinners is just another bait - they sure can produce though. Congrats Russ!

That's cheating. ;D

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

Sho' is!!! ;D ;D

BASS fisherman reply :

Alright LBH, I hear all this talk about how good you are at catching some beastly bass. You suppose you could catch fish like that at an over pressured lake too? I mean some of the newbies on here could throw a shiner in and pull out a 6.9lb'r in a semi private lake. Im callin you out! ;D

Them thar's fightin words. I'll see you at Fork, and Ill be the one looking like an big butthead. ;D Or will I? Any bets?

Hula Popper reply :

Awesome man. I'm lookin' forward to the video.

You sure are taking alot of bets for the Fork trip......you bringin' your wallet? :-?

Russ,thats an awesome day,despite the live bait interference penalty! ;D

BASS fisherman reply :

You better believe it 5bass!

I'd watch the video, but I still have dial-up, and it take 20 some hours to download your videos.

ok,...that explains it,lol.

BF- Fishing as competition is work. I'm going on vacation.

If you'd like, I can keep a good idea of what my top 5 are for you to have somthing to compare yourself too. Personally, I got nothin' to prove to anyone but myself. And all I plan on proving is that I can smile for 5 days straight.

On a sidenote, I will say this. Anyone who as ever won anything on the water just grinned when they read what you wrote. More traps have been shut and shut good on the water than you can shake a stick at. I think it's called getting "muzzled"

Careful wielding that sword and wallet unless you have the money to play, I'm sure someone else will take you up on a wager.

LBH, when is the video gonna be up, I wanna go to bed but I wanna see this video. Should I call it a night?

Sheesh you people arent any fun! Lighten up some

liquidsoap reply :

Looking foward to it!

Shesh New England gets bigger bass then Ohio and an ocean view to boot!

Man I gotta get out of here...

Your 2 big bass from today would have won big bass and would have put you in at least second place in any tournament I fished all year.... :'(

Thats sad...

ScroGG ToGG reply :

all these positve results from you and shiner fishing alone is gonna make live bait sales go up 30%!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

BF- I told you I would track the top 5. Your PM let me know that wasn't good enough. It also let me know that you really aren't the friend you pretended to be so sure,...bring your wallet.

BA12- sorry about that buddy, it's gonna be few days.

KU_Bassmaster. reply :

Come on .... how about a teaser pic

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

OK, this was my kicker.

KU_Bassmaster. reply :

:o Oink!!!!! Oink!!!!!!

OK .... I think that will tide us over.

That's truly inspiring to me. Inspires me to get off my butt and get out there and freeze it off. ...... Well actually I don't have a problem with the cold. It's the cold AND the rain. I'll do one or the other, but not both. It's going on 3 weeks since I've been out. :'(

roadwarrior reply :

Wow!

Forget about Fork, that's a pig!

Lady Bass reply :

you know what guys stop being so rude to Bass fisherman..especially you Low buget Hooker..YOUR SMART remarks to him are out of line. what I have been seeing around here is a lately is just big ego trips and it's a turn off for me to belong to a board like this.I don't like people who constantly BRAG ''look what I caught'' OR ''BRING YOUR WALLET''..WHAT A SHAME!!.Bass fisherman is the nicest person you ever want to meet..but to bad with all this competition around here you'll never know.what ashame.! >

roadwarrior reply :

Lady Bass,

This IS the section for bragging. The "competition" was brought on by BASS fisherman, not Russ. Plus, I think it's all good natured and just meant to be fun. I know Russ doesn't give a hoot about competeing with anyone at Lake Fork, he doesn't ever even fish competatively. Most importantly, Russ shares EVERYTHING with all the BassResource members and takes the time to offer very specific help to many.

I guess all I'm saying is, "lighten up", this whole conversation has been togue in cheek. No one is being belittled and Russ is not challenging anyone.

lady bass,

you should go back and re-read this thread, bass fisherman started the trash talking and apparently sent a PM to LBH, talking some more trash.

LBH,

Nice fish!!

A real beauty, anyone would like to have... but still a slot fish at Fork!

earthworm77 reply :

Nice job guys!

LBH-

Personally, I got nothin' to prove to anyone but myself

These are words to live by! And I add, I'm not interested in what anyone else thinks of it!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

ok guys, I got lucky today and have been assigned to work on a United Way project so I will have some time to start building the video this afternoon.

I need song suggestions, my mind is blank. I like "remedy" by the Black crowes in the last video so I'm thinking along those lines,...genre wise. maybe even as far back as the right Zeppelin song,...anyone?

I am aiming this video to be shorter,for those on dial up, it will be 1 song and slam packed with large fish.

Any help with song suggestions is appreciated, you guys always have great input.

EW77- this fall we proved to ourselves that that particular jig isn't magic. We have been catching on 2 different 1/8 and 3/16 oz jigs, totally different design from each other. next year, we keep it local, we want to try your grass jigs from the get go. I'll be ordering a batch for ice out

roadwarrior reply :

Carrie Underwood- Before He Cheats

http://lyrics.astraweb.com/display/688/carrie_underwood..some_hearts..before_he_cheats.html

This song is hot!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

Black Crowes, Zeppelin,....Carrie Underwood,....lol,..I see where your going with this,lol.

roadwarrior reply :

Well, even if you don't use it for your video, check it out. Even those that don't like country will probably like this song.

BTW, Chicks dig it!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

Actually, it is a good song!!

KU_Bassmaster. reply :

"Back in the Sadle" - Aerosmith??

"Boom" - POD

Lot's of good "hook set" points in there.

Vyron reply :

Drowning Pool-Bodies

Coal Chamber-Fiend

Disturbed-Stupify

Disturbed-Voices

Pantera-Walk (Re-spect from haters LOL)

senile1 reply :

Hmm. . . . . a Zeppelin song for a fishing trip . . . . kind of happy and upbeat maybe?

How about . . . .

Noboby's Fault but Mine from the Presence album

Out On The Tiles from Led Zeppelin III

Nice fish, LBH.

Redtail reply :

Russ - Did you get that order of 5 to 10 lb large Mouth Bass Decoys you ordered from Bass-O-Rama?

That one your holding sure looks like one.

Sorry Man - Couldn't help myself - Great job as always and I can't wait to hook up with you again in the Spring! Low Budget Bend awaits you. By the way, the next time you come down, I will have an orange buoy marker from Havad for you signed by all your friends from the girl's camp.

Dan: reply :

Here are some Zeppelin songs that might go well with the video

Good Times, Bad Times - title is great for fishing

When the Levee Breaks

Moby Dick - another excellent fishing title, pretty fast paced, and instrumental.

sodaksker reply :

"Hey Hey what can I say" Enough said. ;D

liquidsoap reply :

Perfect song for a fishing video...

Line and Sinker - Billy Talent...

More cool ones...

Ultra Blue - Thrice

Deadbolt - Thrice

You shook me all night long - ACDC

Anytime - Eve 6

Superman - Goldfinger

Gimme Three Steps - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Long Way Home - The Offspring

Chainsaw - The Ramones

I doubt you have half of these songs in your possesion but seeing how you like rock songs in your videos I think these would be sweet too.

Pond Hopper reply :

Wow what a fish especially for October in New England. Might have to put off the hunting until I can squeeze in one more fishing trip. Beatiful coloration to the fish too.

K_Mac reply :

That is an incredible day!!!!! You guys have been killing them this fall. I am looking forward to the next LBH production. Thanks for sharing.

Bassassasin12 reply :

Some good songs for a fishing flick...

Stranglehold- Ted Nugent

Sweet Child of Mine- Guns and Roses

Livin on the edge- Aerosmith

guest reply :

Outstanding day Russ,

I suspect that the shiners were really not necessary that day. Sounds like you would have pounded them throwing the "flying Lure" :

can't wait for the video.

couple of comments.

Lady Bass. You need to "get with" the culture here. When men "bond" it is not done by making warm supportive statements (totally girl). It is done by trash talking, bragging, challenging, and other forms of behavior most women find obnoxious, rude and even aggressive. Sorry, but we are "wired" differently.

LBH- that picture of you was too funny. I mean the bass was great, but your pants reminded me of the old men at century village in Miami beach. I know you have a waist down there somewhere

PS - Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze

Bassassasin12 reply :

haha yeah avid, i noticed the pants too russ? I thought the pictures of my grandpa and me fishing popped up when I saw that. ;D Just playing.

Hey avid, guess what my last name is...Hendrix, and I am not lying 8-)

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

Those are my Bibs you goofballs!!

5bass reply :

Orion by Metallica.....its an instrumental on the Master of Puppets CD.At least give it a listen,it starts slow but it all kicks in soon enough.That song would give your video a real sharp edge ......(not that it needs it)

Real nice bass by the way.

sodaksker reply :

Nice fish! As far as I'm concerned you can wear those bibs as high as you like. Man...I got to find me some new water.

bass ackwards reply :

heartbreaker led zep the words are just right!!!!! great vids good job

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

Got 80% of it done today,....Blues Traveler was the call, thanks for all the input.

Should be able to finish it tomorrow after work. I'm proud of this one,....chock full of big fish.

-Drums- reply :

LBH - But Anyway? I'm psyched to see what Blues Traveler tune you picked.

5BL - I hear ya on Orion...what a great song!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

OK,OK,OK...It's loading as I type.

I chose a song you've probably never heard them do before, it's off of a "specialty" album. PM for more details if needed.

Video will be posted in this section by 11:00, enjoy!!

liquidsoap reply :

T minus 2 minutes and counting

Doghouse. reply :

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

No way man, it's up there! The UPS man doesn't KNOW the word late! As a matter of fact, true to form, it was up at 10:55, 5 minutes early!!

I wish you were my UPS man... even on a good day, he comes after 5:30pm. ...lol

Troutfisher reply :

Our UPS man isn't afraid of my dog, unlike other package delivers such as Fed-Ex. Our UPS man lets the dog lick him, and pets her a lot.

Back to the original thread, I saw the video, it's AWESOME!

SPEEDBEAD. reply :

They are always on time delivering stuff to the office during the day....never at my house w/ catalog orders though :-?

Redtail reply :

Another Great Job!

Did you have to edit miles of film - it seemed like you were taping even before you had a fish on.

Great Stuff Russ!

Low_Budget_Hooker reply :

This one took 9 hrs to build, when I lid all the footage out on the timeline, it was 74 minutes. Compiling that into 5 minutes takes forever!!

1487

OK, I can't hold it in anymore!! 2024
