I know the fish movement year around. I have been at this game all my life, and I am 78 years old now, still fishing every morning for a few hrs. I use to be a bass fisherman and striper/rock fisherman. But now that I can't get in boats anymore, I'm just a pan fisherman with a five gallon bucket, and a few lures in my pocket. I kinda like this no boat fishing. I call it fishing with all the work picked out. Thanks Mike!

Andy,

I do a lot of bank fishing in the winter. I keep all my tackle in my pockets too and just carry a rope for a stringer. Sure makes it a lot easier to change spots. I might need to start carrying a 5 gallon bucket to sit on when my back acts up. Those are some nice bass in those pictures, I'm guessing that was the 70's. I use to bass fish a lot, but I don't target them anymore. Always loved pan fishing in the winter.

LOL! Mike you sound like me. I use the bucket for fish and to sit on for a break.

Mike, this in me now. Old man fishing. LOL!

Andy,

I don't see an old man in that picture, just a guy that loves fishing. That's a nice snakehead.
