The day goes by in a blink of an eye! Nothing beats it.

my favorite time of all to fish is spring and early summer..

I am not much into fishing anymore, but I am going to get back into it this year..

Mostly just cause it'll give me an excuse to be on the lake..

Well I am bout 35-40 minutes from Lake Marion(Santee cooper) so you tell me..

Actually its dam good, Lake Wateree has some good fishing on the lower end near the river.

Fishing Creek is a freakin AWESOME place to fish, it definetly takes experience to fish that place.

Never bass fished lake murray. For one its to far and everytime I am out there its covered in people out ski-ing and swimming everywhere. So pretty much screwing up the fishing..

I have heard a lot about Marion but have not fished it, so i cant tell you. I also heard alot about Okeechobee and it sucked. hahahha I hear it has improved though because when i was there the water levels were really low because of a long drought. But i have not fished any of the Carolina's.

I am moving south soon and will be missing my northern pike fishing! But there are a bunch of new species to target in texas that we dont have here. So it should be interesting anyhow.

Well Santee is famous for alot of fish and big ones at that.. I figured you woulda known that?

But I've never had any luck there personally but the guy I fished with has went out there numerous times and caught 9 or 10 bass, no smaller than 5 pounds.. The last time he went the biggest was 9 and a half pounds..

I have heard plenty about the lake. My bass club fished a tournament there (i was not able to go) and didnt do well. I think it was to to a cold fron going through though. That must be a magic lake! All over 5lbs! hahah
