These Baits Will Land You Fall Bass

Fishing changes just like the seasons. Don't miss out on this list of must-have bass baits!

Sometimes, it can be challenging for anglers to catch fish when the weather shifts from Summer to Fall. Changes in barometric pressure can make fish swim to different depths, and when a cold front comes in, you might not catch any fish at all. Although the weather and temperatures can be quite unpredictable, there are certain techniques that can enhance your chances of landing a sizable…

Coming Home

Hello Lovelies! Thank y'all so much for the support and love the past day! I have decided to write a little quick Folio Fic! Hope you enjoy!

18+ warning

CW: [implied unprotected p in v but no descriptive details, drinking, fluffy fluff, smooching, longing]

It started like any other day when Folio was home, a quick morning text letting you know he was finally home after a long touring schedule. Not only was Nick your best friend, but you lived in the same rural neighborhood. You spent your summer days riding bikes throughout the twists and turns of neighboring streets. You spent the evenings watching Folio play drums in local bands in concrete basements, ears ringing for days afterwards. Winters were spent surrounding bonfires, wrapped in blankets and reliving old times together.

One by one each friend left your hometown but Folio stayed, except when it came to touring, recording, and anything else Bad Omens. So when the opportunity came to spend time with him, you always jumped on it.

And what did he want to do? Go fish...

Equipped with fishing poles, his dad's truck, and a cooler full of Natty Boh's, Folio arrived bright and early like he said he would.

The river was a short drive from your neighborhood. You sat in the passenger seat while Folio took all the familiar turns. At the end of a long road, that had since turned into dirt from asphalt, Folio pulled to the side. The sound of the parking break indicated it was time to gear up. You opened the familiar creaking door, moving to the now open truck bed. You reluctantly accepted the wader pants, earning a small chuckle from Folio's lips.

"The last time you complained about the leeches for hours, y/n," Folio said looking down at the pants then into your eyes.

You practically melted at his chocolate brown eyes, nodding your head as you begun pulling the waders over your leggings.

Once geared up you both trekked through the woods on a barely-there path, but you both knew exactly where you were going. At the rivers edge, you cracked open a beer, prepared your fishing poles, and waded out into the flowing river.

"I reckon I'll catch the biggest fish this time," You teased as you both cast out your lures. Folio chose a simple blue spinner lure, while you opted for a rainbow jerkbait.

Hours passed by as you both cast out lines, reeled in, and repeated. A few small bluefish made their ways onto your hooks, nothing noteworthy. The trout Folio caught was small and did not meet regulation to keep.

Despite the lack of fish, you both had fun. You earned a few splashes from Folio when you cast your line too close to his, he didn't want you to steal his prize fish. You splashed him when his back turned to you, earning a scold from him that you 'scared the fish away' when his line came up empty once again.

After another hour or so more, you both waded your way to shore to sit on the bank and drink a few beers. The sun had begun to set casting deep shadows from the trees. You both sat silently, enjoying each other's company. Every so often you caught Folio's eyes light up when looking at you, earning a shy smile and blush as he quickly looked away. It all just felt right. You loved his goofy smile, the way his face was so expressive even in simple moments like this.

When dusk settled, you both packed up your gear walking back to the truck. In the cover of the trees it was almost impossible not to trip over fallen branches and tree roots. When you made it back to the truck it took all but a few minutes to wiggle out of the waders. Although, Folio caught you when you tripped taking your left foot out. You caught his gaze, mere inches from his beautiful face. His eyes now as dark as the night creeping its way in. His nose ring catching the last light that was left behind.

Then his lips crashed into yours, it was slow but hungry. It started as just lips, and then teeth, and then tongue. The kiss grew urgent, hungry. Your body electrified, it had been so long since you imagined what it would be like to be Folio's. You gave up on that idea long ago when Folio wanted to pursue his dreams.

One shirt came off, then another, one bra, then pants were on the ground. You both had made your way into the backseat of the truck driven by a string you both knew was there. Folio took his time, sneaking glances into your eyes to make sure every move he made was ok, was right.

Fingers snaked under the bands of underwear, both cast aside somewhere in the front seat of the truck. The windows had begun to fog from the pure ecstasy of two friends exploring the deepest parts of themselves for the first time.

The silent night was filled with breathless moans; small gasps when the right spot was found. Pleasure was building slowly, powerfully running between the two of you. And then it was over as fast as it had started, ending in small screams of the others' names. You both clothed quickly, knowing you had already missed the opportunity to eat a hot dinner around your dining table.

Folio drove home, taking the familiar turns once more before pulling in front of your house. Lights illuminated his eyes, which you caught one more time before opening the door and going home.

If you had looked back, you would have noticed Folio's stare lingered on the back of your head for a moment too long. He wanted to say something, but he knew it wasn't the right time.

He would always come home.

Preview! Me as Raven and David as Beast Boy, photo immersion by the incredible Jester's Forge. A HUGE thank you to our incredible friends for this gift!!! We made everything in the costumes ourselves except Raven's Belt/Medallions/head jewel, protective LED mask, wig bases, shoes, and contacts. (I mean I guess I didn't need to say shoes and contacts since then like undergarments and whatnot that's a given... but I'm really proud of everything we did).

This was a huge deal for me as I'm incredible self-conscious and I'm not used to how my body's changed. It's been years since I've worn a cosplay and while I'm a costume designer, I am not great at alteration. I made version one of this cosplay two years ago (we couldn't attend the con as we got covid 3 days before) and in that time lost 6" in my torso, not sure how much in the butt, and was at a bit of a loss. There are repairs needed for the boot covers and I need to sew them to the tights (we will be adding fishnets for flare) and moving the medallions next time. I am hoping for different shoes. There is a small chance I'll have to redo some other bits of the costume from rubs. The fabric's beautiful but there's some wear since I sweat a lot.

David did two unitards, one in powernet that I loved best, one in lycra that he preferred, but he still doesn't have quite what he wants for Beast Boy. This is version one of the red and white unitard he's playing around with. I did not have time to style the wig but I think it still worked!

Very proud of these costumes and what we did. I'm also very proud of wearing them since I always stress that we make costumes for EVERYONE and we don't discriminate against bodies but it's still very, very difficult for me to get through some gender dysphoria and also some internalized bad-thoughts from my former trainer and the person I based "Heather" in JERKBAIT on (I always cover my legs/thighs/hips, which both would point out and say cruel things about...)

More pics to come! Waiting on one final. :) And again, thank you JestersForge. You made me feel so empowered!

I wanna know your faves!! Tell me about your favorite movie, tv show and book of all time 😊

you mean favorite movie that isn't rwrb??? I haven't connected to a movie like i did rwrb since then or in a long time before then, I think the last one i watched that often on repeat was pitch perfect? I fell asleep watching that every night for months.

tv show. I am a one tree hill girlie (gn) through and through. the journey brooke davis takes in those nine years from "slutty cheerleader" to this strong, independent woman who's worked for everything she has is an amazing thing to see even with all the behind the scenes issues of that show (of which, there are a lot)

book. jerkbait by mia siegert I tore through that sonofabitch in a single day and i rarely ever do that with books. I love it so much.

rec ask

Alas, I’m currently staying at a place with my family that has an open floor plan so take from that what you will. Also in the mood for sapphics if you have any boss

Icebreaker by A.I. Graziadei - from what i remember this is the mildest of these recs, very little to nothing but this is the oldest one i read. Honestly i don’t remember much but the sister characters are wonderful and i would marry them 10/10

Time to Shine by Rachel Reid - very short, sweet, a bit quick for my taste with character falling but it’s very idealistic. Also minimal smut and you can tell when it’sit’s coming so pretty skippale

Jerkbait by Mia Siegert - not my favorite, felt a bit flat and Just not super likable, tried to be very sad just threw things in and very rushed.

The Hockey Ever After Series by Morgan James and Ashlyn Kane - ok the first and third are the best ones in my opinion bc they’re the only ones i remember but they are appropriately silly, probably a bit lighter than breakaway. They do be banging though so keep your eyes peeled for that bc it will just happen

The under-statement of the year - this is cute, not too memorable but it takes everything a bit more serious. College kids, a bit unrealistic but honestly it is a cute fun read. Less sex? Maybe? I forget but it was definitely skippable

Devils Lake Fishing Report

Devils Lake Fishing Report: A Late Summer Update

Devils Lake is once again proving to be a fishing angler's paradise, offering up a consistent and exciting bite for those who venture out onto its vast waters. As the summer winds down, the lake continues to produce impressive catches of walleye, perch, and other species.

Walleye Fishing: Walleye fishing has remained strong throughout the late summer months. Anglers have been finding success in both shallow and deeper waters. The key has been adjusting to the changing conditions, such as temperature fluctuations and baitfish movements. Popular techniques include trolling with crankbaits, jigging with leadhead jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows, and casting jerkbaits.

Perch Fishing: Perch fishing has been excellent, with anglers reporting consistent catches of both yellow and white perch. These tasty fish can be found in various depths, from shallow weed beds to deeper structure. Live bait, such as minnows or wax worms, has been a productive choice for perch fishing.

Other Species: In addition to walleye and perch, Devils Lake has also been producing good numbers of crappies, pike, and bass. These species can be targeted using similar techniques to those used for walleye and perch. FOR MORE UPDATES FOLLOW : https://fishingproo.com/devils-lake-fishing-report/

Seasonal Strategies for Northern Pike Fishing Success

Seasonal strategies are crucial for northern pike fishing success, as this aggressive predator's behavior and habitat change throughout the year. By understanding how northern pike react to seasonal shifts in water temperature, light, and prey availability, anglers can significantly improve their chances of landing these elusive fish.

Spring (Pre-Spawn and Spawn): As ice melts and water temperatures rise, northern pike become more active, moving into shallow waters to spawn. This is a prime time for northern pike fishing as they are hungry after a long winter. Focus on shallow bays, marshes, and areas with vegetation where pike congregate for spawning. Use brightly colored lures or live bait like minnows to attract their attention. Jerkbaits, spoons, and spinners are effective during this time, as they mimic the natural movements of prey.

Summer (Post-Spawn): As temperatures increase, northern pike retreat to deeper, cooler waters during the heat of the day, but they remain active in the early morning and late evening. Focus on weed beds, drop-offs, and structures where pike can ambush prey. During this time, larger lures or crankbaits that resemble perch or smaller fish are particularly effective. Slow presentations work best, as the pike tend to be less aggressive in warmer conditions.

Fall (Feeding Frenzy): As water temperatures drop, northern pike begin their pre-winter feeding frenzy, making fall one of the most productive seasons for northern pike fishing. Pike actively feed on baitfish in preparation for the colder months, often moving back into shallow waters. This is the time to use large, flashy lures or live bait to attract big pike. Focus on shallow flats, rocky points, and river mouths where baitfish gather, and fish during the midday when pike are most active.

Winter (Ice Fishing): In winter, northern pike become more lethargic but are still catchable through the ice. Look for them near underwater structures, drop-offs, or weed lines. Using tip-ups with live bait, such as large minnows or dead baitfish, can be very effective. Northern pike are less aggressive during the winter, so patience is key.

By adapting your tactics to the changing seasons, you can greatly increase your success when northern pike fishing year-round. Understanding their behavior and the best spots to target them is essential for consistent results.

I really want a little rappala jerkbait but they're so emminently shopliftable i don't trust myself to take one off the shelf

[miasiegert]

You've got to be kidding

Did... did someone come at me because I said I'm against all the puritanical nonsense in lit (esp the sex in YA discourse) and start ranting about the Bible? ... to me?

... I...

Really?

I'm going to be kind and assume they have no clue I wrote SOMEBODY TOLD ME or JERKBAIT, but especially SOMEBODY TOLD ME.

But as promised, in response I'm adding another sex scene to my next wip/book. And I will continue doing so any time stuff like this happens.

And as stated:

YA is for TEENS and there's a huge problem with ADULTS if ADULTS are talking about it being spicy.

2. Lolita is literature about a TERRIBLE PERSON. There's a HUGE PROBLEM if people think it's sexy when it's a cautionary tale. No one's supposed to like Humbert Humbert. NO ONE. He's AWFUL. That's the point???

Okay, so author chiming in (who loves it when fans do fanfic/fanart/fanvid/fan anything) and thinks it's GREAT!!!

This is not a defense, but there is backstory with Anne Rice and some terminology with John Scalzi.

Anne Rice, problematic as she could be with an ever changing mentality, had context behind it as she used to be fine with fanfic until someone wrote an epic fanfic with a pairing that no one had done before--like no one would even conceive of it--

--except Anne Rice, who just sent her editors the finished draft, and team found out about that fanfic and ship existing. With writing itself, the length, the pairing and quantity (just from one writer, not fandom at large), and things being still pretty new with internet stuff, that case was truly a legal issue and everything was banned (EVERYTHING) and there was an underground LJ community that'd "secretly" share fanwork. Pretty positive that her team knew about that community as an open secret and it was not an issue as it was clear those were strictly fans of her work, doing things for fans, by fans.

But also with a lot of the trauma in her life, I mean, she joined an extremist cult at one point (but amazingly after her son came out, she quit on the spot because she loved him so much), and she didn't understand the 1-star Goodreads Bullies thing (remember that? Basically not really informed correctly or misunderstood but went in 100% on the train and I just... honestly, it seemed like she didn't "get it"). With the wonderful new IWTV series, her son took over more of the helm and with some of the changes, while the essence of the book was similar, some old fans were upset because "that's not MY Lestat" (although he was always described as a monster, a monster very much in love/obsessed but a monster). She said repeatedly that she was Louis, her late husband was Lestat. The POV of the books changed to Lestat's, not Louis's, even though that might have arguably been the most interesting. While fictional (film/tv counts as that), with Christopher taking more of the reins and also the care with the showrunner... I think it was finally sharing a little more of a hidden history, especially when victims protect their abusers and that it's not simple, that there are shades of gray.

Scalzi's old post didn't bug me so I had to reread it. THEN I realized he used a mix of pub speak and when he tried to simplify for fans, I don't know if it translated the way it was intended. Basically don't do anything to damage his brand/story, there's a protection (probably akin to the Anne Rice one) where if you write a fanfic and an idea in it shows up in one of his books by fluke, you don't have the right to sue. He's not actively reading fanfics, a lot of people have the same ideas, but I think that was framed in a way that was harder for some to understand. He tried to explain IP, but that wasn't clear--basically you need to secure rights for film/TV/Dramatic/etc and other things need to have rights secured. He shared what was totally fine to do without needing permission (such as parodies--save time for people as that's preserved, but also the "good parodies" as it can't just be something that is passed off as a parody but isn't--see Mel Brooks for good parodies, such as "Spaceballs"), what one cannot do, and the repercussions of what people do since this was also the early age of book piracy (which became worse and I had to revert JERKBAIT rights (except Audible!) because I lost 1/5th my earnings from piracy and people buying ebooks to return them when, folks, I beg you, get a library card and the Libby app. AUTHORS ARE PAID FOR LIBRARY COPIES!!! You get to read a book FOR FREE, Authors get PAID. I think every 125 check outs means another sale (discounted because library) but PLEASE. I can't tell you how many books and series have been canceled because of sales/piracy. I lost a deal because of piracy/sales. It sucked.

Sorry, I went off there a bit but the TL;DR, many authors of certain ages don't quite get fanfic/fanart. A lot don't want to read it because of some fear about copyright/legal. Some don't want to see fanart because it can be uncomfortable depending on the content. Some don't want anything at all.

But me? And all the writers I'm friends with? It's considered the biggest honor EVER to have fanfic and fanart and cosplay and everything for our characters. Most of us are complete nerds and we love stuff. (I don't search my own tags or anything or reviews but my husband told me there was one that wrote a note, "I WROTE THIS FANFIC BECAUSE THE BOOK HAD POTENTIAL AND MISSED" and oh gawwwwwd. Yeah, fanfic's for readers but ooooph! (Although partly I will say marketing kept pushing it as a feel good SIMON, and while I *love* Becky and I'm still shocked she *loves* JERKBAIT... the only things in common are that characters do musical theatre and one's gay. SIMON is such a feel good, happy thing. JERKBAIT... well, when it finds a new home (Editors/Pubs, contact my agent Sera), I really hope I can share the sequel from Robbie's POV--it is not a feel good, coming of age, funny YA. I'm not sure why a book about bullying and SH would be marketed as the same category, and I am so sorry to readers who were misled and believed it was a VERY different book).

Oh, and to my one incredible fan who did a school report on SOMEBODY TOLD ME that had not only an essay but also a poem and a script for an episode of an anime series I created FOR the book, and changed their name to Alek after my protagonist--that was the biggest honor in my life.

P.S. All the retellings and reimaginings and winks we do are legal fanfic basically... it has to be disclosed and a lot of legal. Our work is way too new for public domain, so don't make money off of us/exploit us. If you're one of the few who gets a massive deal from doing a fanfic based on one of our series, in every interview you must mention what it was taken from AND provide buy links for ethics, full stop. Is that a legal thing? No. That's moral.

Authors Convinced Fanfic is Illegal/Requires Permission

Terry Goodkind: “Copyright law dictates that in order for me to protect my copyright, when I find such things, I must go out and hire lawyers to threaten these people to make them stop, and to sue them if they don’t.”

John Scalzi: “Let's remember one fundamental thing about fanfic: Almost all of it is entirely illegal to begin with. It's the wild and wanton misappropriation of copyrighted material”

Diana Gabaldon: “OK, my position on fan-fic is pretty clear: I think it’s immoral, I know it’s illegal, and it makes me want to barf whenever I’ve inadvertently encountered some of it involving my characters.”

Robin Hobb: “Fan fiction is like any other form of identity theft. It injures the name of the party whose identity is stolen.”

Anne Rice: “I do not allow fan fiction. The characters are copyrighted. It upsets me terribly to even think about fan fiction with my characters. I advise my readers to write your own original stories with your own characters. It is absolutely essential that you respect my wishes.”

Anne McCaffrey: “there can be no adventure/stories set on Pern at all!!!!! That's infringing on my copyright and can bear heavy penalties…indiscriminate usage of our characters, worlds, and concepts on a 'public' media like electronic mail constitute copyright infringement AND, which many fans disregard, is ACTIONABLE!”

Chelsea Quinn Yarbro: “No. Absolutely not. It is also against federal law.”

Lynn Flewelling: “Whether you are writing about Seregil or Fox Mulder or Sherlock Holmes, if you do not have legal permission from the author, their estate, or publisher, then you are violating US copyright law. It is creative piracy. Doesn't matter how many disclaimers you put on, or if you're being paid. It. Is. Illegal.”

Someone Else, elaborated in the notes
