So you are just reselling the contract, never actually excising the option to buy the shares? How do you resell a contract? And does it text up and down like the stock does?
I’m in for 43 shares right now but I’m still learning about options. Help me understand. If I buy a $130 11/21 for let’s say $10. I pay $1000 for the option to sell 100 shares by 11/21 as long as it’s over $130. But I’d have to sell at at least $140 to break even right?
I just got in with 42 shares at $121.60. Hoping this thing continues to climb!

Cuda and Rapala are the 2 best I’ve used.

Toledo Bend Fall Fishing

Posted by Bass_Fanatic on 9/6/25 at 11:53 am
Hey guys, with the shorter days and slowly cooling weather, the bite on Toledo Bend has already started picking up. We’ve caught 20-40 bass a day this week and 35-80 crappie a day. October-December is absolutely my favorite time of year out here as we have the lake to ourselves and the fish are feeding heavy! Take a day away from the woods and come jump in on the fun this fall/early winter.

The past few days have been crazy good. We are catching 50+each day with a lot of big fish. I caught a DD yesterday and one of our other boats caught a 9lber Friday. Not to mention all the 4-7lbers we’ve caught. Creek swings in 18-22’ with a big crankbait!

The crappie fishing has been very tough for us the past week. I’ve actually caught more of them in open water in 25-40’ than we have moving up.

For those coming to the lake this week, we caught close to a 30lbbag yesterday livescoping in 35’. All on a Yamamoto scope Shad. But today they are finally biting in the grass. One of our guides has caught 3 over 5lbs already this morning on a Toledo gold trap. This weekend should be unreal.

This week pushed them back out some but by,I’d week next week it should be back right. We had to go scope in 40’ to catch fish the past couple days.
1/2 oz Toledo Gold and Gold/Black back/Orange belly
Lots of good advise here already. If we have a warming trend, go north on the lake and fish buck brush with senkos and jigs. If it is cold, go south and fish grass with a chatterbait and trap. If you are wanting to fish offshore, fish the mouth of spawning pockets with a Carolina rig, jig, crankbait, and Arig.
Give me a call anytime. We’d love to earn your business.

And Ben South is one of our guides. He is one of the best fisherman I know.
Would love to take y’all. I run Bent Rods Guide Service. We have a house to accommodate you if needed and we can take y’all fishing. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Josh Sikes 318-308-5818

Small groups. You’ll catch 2 or3 off one stump and maybe 6-8 off the next.

The fishing is outstanding right now. We’ve been catching 50-100 bass a day. Alabama rigs and a scope Shad fished around balls of bait in creeks. We also limited out on crappie today. Fished just south of bridge with jigs on standing timber.
Wait until you hear how much they paid for the land! Once they figured out it was Meta coming in, land prices went up 100x
Feb give you a shot at a giant prespawner, but the weather will really make all the difference. March is more consistent. I’d plan out your trip around the full moon or new moon in March.
