SPOTS

I agree with Mike P. Depends on the guy and the spot. My partner knows all my secret spots. He's the only one. The other guys I fish with occasionally know SOME of my secret spots. But, let's face it. How secret are our spots? Joe Pagano at Nelsons in P-Town use to tell me that the bass have been going to the same spots for 1000 years. The structure may change and move around but the bass will be in the vicinity.

Like the mafia saying goes,
keep you're mouth shut,
and never talk to anyone!

I believe that you should only show spots to a few people you can trust and will not show the spot to someone else. All you need is a chain reaction to start and the spot is gone. This is the best method to keep spots:

Been burned a few times, so if it is someone I know and trust, and there is a give and take, I'll talk a little.

It also depends on the spot, everyone know about WH and you can go with little fear and repurcusion. Not all of the fish are caught in "secret" places. But some places cannot support high traffic, and those places don't get talked about.

Like some have said, depends on who, and where...Me, personally, if someone is gonna trust me enough to bring me somewhere I respect them and trust them even more because of it. That's the bottom line. I really enjoy taking a buddy to a few of my spots, I know the feeling I get when I get to see new water, it's a rush. .
... speakin of that, Dave n Dave in a couple a weeks you gotta come on up

The first rule of spot club is -- you don't talk about spot club.

The second rule of spot club is -- you don't talk about spot club.

The third rule of spot club is -- when a sand sissy says "stop" or twists an ankle, the night is over.

Fourth rule is -- only two guys to a rock.

Fifth rule -- one drift at a time.

Sixth rule -- no shirts, no shoes, no service

Seventh rule -- fights go on as long as they have to so horse ‘em outta that rip!

And the eighth and final rule -- if this is your first night at spot club, you will be skunked…

Seriously I'd rather fish by myself. Too many "men" fishing with tampons in nowadays. buncha gossipy lil 8itches. Sell ya out in a second...............

I love it when the old timers are like "You showed up by yourself..." yeah.. told ya I would..keeping my word "Good cuz such and such.. would have half the internet down here by now..." I'll never forget that night I almost fell off the cliff I was standing on I was laughing soo hard, I think I can still hear chris laughing at that one....... That was pretty funny and so was "tell him to stfu.. all you need in your hand is a rod!" & "you better go weigh that in at the other end of the state and come up with a good story.." Gotta love the (whos this) "Oh I dunno what I was using, one of them things" I love that one I borrow from that one heavily. "What'd it weigh in at?, ..... ahh my scale must be off" "Enough about me... Lets talk about me....."

But being frank. Dave I wouldnt tell ya a thing or I'd get you fit shaced then take you.. But then again most of the time Im like Seargent Schultz..... I've left fish to go fish with folks where I know theres no fish You got a better shot at landing on the sun barefoot than getting anything outta me..

But then again theres old folks (who get all doped up on Geritol, before they go out at night ) that I'll call and volunteer any up to the minute stuff I see first hand.....and thats gods honest truth

But seriously watch for sell outs.....
