My plan - 1 neophyte, 1 johnboat, 5 rods and 6 hours:

If I've got anything way off base, please tell me. I'll be fishing a 110 acre stained lake, deepest point is 27-30 ft with a solid rep for bass. I'll be in a johnboat pushed by a tm with 45 lbs of thrust. Forage is allegedly (lady lake mgr sounded like she was guessing) crawfish, bream, crappie. Lots of cover in winter dormancy, stumps and timber in deep channels. Tomorrow will be the second day in a row in the 50s in a long time with a high of 57, wind 5-10 mph, 70 percent sun. Best guess on water temp is low 50s.

Here is my working plan after reading and trying to synthesize all the great advice on here:

6 - Bud Lights
1 - cuban sandwich
1 - bag chili cheese fritos

Skeet Reese 7'2" MH Fast rod
8040 Pflueger 6.2:1 Supreme spinning reel
8 lb hybrid, 10" pumpkinseed worm.

Shakespeare 6'6" MH Fast rod
Shakespeare Cirrus spinning reel (?)
12 lb mono, standard 3/8 oz jig (blue.black)

Bass Pro Qualifier 6' MH Fast rod
BPQ 6.4:1 baitcaster
12 lb mono, 3/8 oz spinnerbait w/gold col blade

Browning 3 pc 7' MH Fast rod
Abu Garcia Revo S 6.4:1
12 lb mono, Reaction Inno Sweet Beaver flipping bait

Shakespeare 6'6" MH Fast rod
Shakespeare Baitcaster 6.4:1
12 lb mono, 10 ft crankbait

Is this plan in the ballpark? Any obvious miscues?
