Don’t Just Fish on the Front Porch | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "There have literally been thousands of times out on the water where I have seen anglers severely limit their success with their own poor habits.

No matter how many times I have seen it, this still drives me nuts and makes me want to fish the cover as soon as they leave it."
