Expert Profile: Jack Gaither

Expertise: I have been bass, crappie, brim and catfishing for over 60 years. Most of my recent experience has been on the Apalachicola R. in Fl. panhandle, Dead Lakes and Lake Seminole. I can answer many questions on places to go and some ideas on tactics especially for largemouth bass in these waters. I can`t tell you what fish will bite but can give some lures and methods that have worked well for me over the last 33 years in this area. I am also well versed on boating safety and small boat handling.

Experience in the area
I am not a guide nor a writer or publisher of any magazine on fishing. All of my ideas would come from my experiences and those of fishing partners in local bass clubs in Panama City, Florida.

Organizations
Basmasters. Past member (25 years) and instructor in boating and navigation classes in the United States Power Squadrons.

Publications
ST. Andrew Bay Power Squadron local publication "Stuffing Box"

Education/Credentials
United States Power Squadrons courses in Piloting and small boat handling, celestial navigation, trouble shooting on outboard engines and other non eletronic equipment in boats.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I guess if I ever stop learning I will be through fishing. Of course I would love to catch a 26pound bass but I doubt I will achieve that. Perhaps a lake record. LOL

That was a very long response. It was very informative though.

Thanks very much for your response. My dad's brother already has a trolling motor which my dad has admired, so I think he will like one of his own.

Thanks for the helpful advice. I will definitely send any other similar inquiries Jack's way! I really appreciate it.
