What state are you from? 2025

nwgabassmaster reply :

I would like to get in touch with the anglers that are from Georgia, Alabama, and Tennesse, however, I would also like to get to know the rest of you.

I am a peson that believes that one person can never have too many friends, especially when it comes to fishing friends. So, let me know where you are from!

I am from Georgia, in case you did not read my introduction. I live in a small town called Trion. It's about 2 hours north of ATL.

You can click on a persons user name and get some info on them.Try mine.

nwgabassmaster reply :

Thanks, but that could take a while. LOL ;D

I have been a member of several other forums, but the majority of the people were located in one central location.

Here, it seems that there is a mish-mash of folks all over the place. I know of 3 others from Georgia, and one from RI.

nwgabassmaster reply :

DirtyBirdNation,

Yup, I know exactly what you are referring to. I have fished it a couple of times, but never enough to actually learn anything about it. ;D

I am just north of ya, in Trion. Maybe we could get together, and fish sometime.

I sent ya a message.

Thanks.

Great smallie and Largie fishing. Not too big though.

State Record: Largemouth=11-4

Smallmouth= 8.75

( I know the Guy who caught a 9.1 smallmouth and never got it "officially" weighed. now it is sitting on a shelf in his tackle shop with a sign above that states "If i was not hung over,from the night before, i would be the new WA state Smallmouth bass record Holder" LOL

I'm originally from central jersey, where I cut my bass fishing teeth, used to hit the golf course ponds at night and clean up back in the 60s lol

now im in fishing paradise in Raleigh nc.

ps sure do miss my trout honey hole up in jersey. and the delaware muskies.

Sam reply :

Richmond, Virginia.

Grew up in Louisiana where the fishing is outstanding and now do 99% freshwater fishing as I am spoiled as there is no comparison between the Chesapeake Bay and southern Louisiana.

Southern Louisiana fishing is fantastic. After Florida, I think it is the best place for all around fishing in the USA.

paully reply :

I'm from Chicago, Illinois. Bass aren't that big here you're lucky to catch a 5 five pounder. Still fun though

Phishn_Phool reply :

Originally from Missouri...Now I fish everyday on the Harris chain of lakes in Florida about 35 miles north of Orlando. And Paully 5lbr's are not easy to catch here either, moved here in Dec of last year and only managed 4 over 5 so far, and I have not caught "THE ONE" yet, but I am having fun trying and they are here. In the BASS tourny here in Feb the biggest fish was caught by a co-angler from Chicago and it weighted 11something.

CPR ;D

Hammer

I work in Kennesaw as well ! nwgabassmaster and Hammer , I'm down to go fishing pretty much anytime on the weekends. Hammer I have been hitting one pond off of Jiles road in Kennesaw in the legacy park neighborhood. The other one is in Paulding county off of Old Cartersville rd. That one is my honey hole. I'd be glad to let you or nwgabassmaster come out and check it out.

I have no boat, I'm planning on gettin some type of pond boat over the winter months. Let me know, I'll see ya'll around. ;D

nwgabassmaster reply :

DBN........I appreciate the offer to come down. Like you, I do not have a boat. And right now, it does not seem that I will be getting one soon, either.

Bass Hammer, I fish mostly the Rocky Mountain Project in Armuchee, Georgia, and Lake Weiss, which is over in Alabama. Part of it is in Georgia, and I have fished that 2 times in my lifetime. The last time I went, I caught 3 bass, on a T-rigged Zoom Finesse Worm, after part of the last hurricane came through, and dropped about 3 inches of rain.

If either of you want to come up and fish, just let me know. I am available on most Saturdays and Sundays.

AceHigh reply :

From? I was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee and I believe the birthplace of bass fishing. I remember when Bill Dance was just another member in the Memphis Bass Club which had to limit itself to 200 members (he was awesome on river lakes, the real deal). And for years the Memphis Bass Club tournaments probably had tougher bass fishing competition than anywhere (there were no other tournaments back then).

I'm now 90 miles to the Northwest of Memphis in Arkansas.

paiged79 reply :

I am in the military so my location changes a lot but atleast for the next couple of years, I will be in Washington State (Fort Lewis).

If anyone from Washington ever wants to go fishing, feel free to give me an Instant Message. I have a small inflatable boat w/ a trolling motor so if the lake isn't too big, we could use my boat.

Augusta, KS

I fish Augusta City Lake, El Dorado Lake, Butler Co. fishing lake, Cowley Co. fishing lake, Kingman Co. fishing lake, Sedgewick Co. park(flyfishing for trout), Fall River area, Walnut and Whitewater rivers, area farm ponds, and the pond that is 200 feet from my house on the golf course.(3lb. largemouth's can be caught on anything you can toss in the water.) There's lots of other good water around here that I haven't been on in years, mainly because just recently I'm back into fishing. My sons are all old enough to fish on their own with me now so I can actually get my lures wet again. We have a good time. I usually fish with my 3 boys, and their uncle and we have a good time. Just wish we could afford a boat. :-/

Fishnfishmore reply :

Good to see some Oklahoma guys here!

Im from Claremore Oklahoma.

a little about myself: I live in Claremore, am a full-time college student and work part-time, i fish average 3 days a week with 3/4 of my fishing being in ponds and the rest at Grand and Hudson on my uncles bass boat.

I'm always looking for a new fishing pal and am having a hard time finding anyone who is consistent and passionate about bass fishing, like i am...

This is starting to sound like a fishing partner resume huh!?

Well if you are close and want to do some fishing with me, shoot a pm this way!

Born and raised in Southern California, now Southeast Iowa has been home for 11 years. Spent some time in Arkansas also, right on Bull Shoals and minutes from Table Rock (where I received my bass fishing education)

I fish quite a few lakes here in Iowa and Missouri (3 mile, Wapello, 12 mile, Green Valley, Sugema, Mark Twain, Thousand Hills, Hazel Creek, Rathbun) to name a few.

My favorite of them all would have to be 3 mile, voted in the top 10 bass lakes in the state.

Hey Shad_Master. Since you are in Omaha, (I assume NE) you should look into joining the Omaha Bassmasters, a great club there. I usually fish a few of their opens on 3 mile lake in Iowa.
