Strong is the baitmonkey. Feel it can I.

Welcome to the Nut-House! You'll learn we're as crazy as we seem, and you'll also learn to love it.

I've learned so much from this site and all the great guys here, but like many have said before, the best way to learn is to be out on the water, so fish everychance you get.

hoyt, welcome and ditto what everyone has said... As far as fancy gear goes, don't worry about it. Bass fishin can be relatively inexpensive, despite what the baitmonkey and some of our tackle obssesed members might say!!!
