I'm fairly new to this site...

I do more reading than posting because I have a lot to learn. I've been a trout fisherman my whole life and this site has peeked my interest in bass fishing. I never thought about it much before I started "lurking" about here and reading everything and anything. I just bought my first baitcaster, and some of the input I got here played a big role in my decisioin to purchase a Shimano Curado. The input I get from all of you has been invaluable - even if it's for something I didn't ask about. I know I have a lot to learn, but coming to this site, reading the articles and the posts has helped me a lot. I haven't landed my first bass yet - but when I do - I know the input I have received from this site will have played a role.

I don't get to fish as often as I'd like to (far less than most of you), but I enjoy reading about all the fish reports and everything else on this site. It's a great site. It's clean and BS free and I like that.

I hope you don't change a thing.
