When it comes to crossbows there seems to be three schools of thought.
The first is that the equipment shouldnt be considered normal archery equipment and the mere mention of one could result in a profanity laced tirade. The second is more based on the curiosity side. This group is intrigued, but not overly anxious, to change from their existing hunting gear. The third says now that its legal; Im going to give it a try.

There is no better bait for catching big fish this time of year. Weve got a lot of fronts coming through and those weather changes tend to invigorate the bass. We also get a little more wind and that makes spinnerbait fishing even better.
The bass are moving off the deep structure and onto the flats. Instead of cruising the deep weedlines, they often suspend on the grassy drops and are moving toward shallower water.
