Good job out there! Keep the reports coming!

Terrific video my man. I loved seeing you catch the crappie on the old school lure. Is that jig rod new? What kind is it a Kisler? What length?


Hey thanks man! It is a newer rod. I have had it for about 6mos. I absolutely love it! So light and sensitive. I got a Nitranium also but like this one ...

That’s a great point you’re fishing in the beginning. You wouldn’t even know it was there without a graph or low water


That it is. I have a few go to jig spots and that’s definitely one of them. I remember seeing it when it was a super low water year and realizing how much structure was there ...

Just being out there is great but happy to share the knowledge. Much more to come. Excited for the next adventure.

Great job out there man! I did order some of those after your last post. Still waiting to get them. Light line is the best!

Thanks for the update. I went there Sunday with similar results. A number of fish all battling for the title of the smallest bass of the year. Nothing over 10”.

I totally get it. I'm heading out there this weekend and was just curious if it was anything specific. Thanks for the info!

Hey all,
Just a Public Service Announcement kind of thing. I got home last weekend from fishing the bay, emptied my car, cleaned my gear and was so tired I basically just ate and went to bed. I had left a few non-essential items in my car and thought nothing of it.

I got up the next morning to ...

Here's the link to the podcast if you are interested.

No baby bass in there. I do have Roseline Sharks/Denison Barbs there. A super cool fish! There is a 9 fish school each about 6 inches. Thanks for checking out the podcast!

Hey all!
Headed out of Tidelands Park a little over a week ago and had a fun day experimenting with baits that I don't normally use in the Bay. Mainly I was using a chatterbait (white/char.) and a chrome blade baits. I was trying to think of baits ...

Great job out there man! I can't wait to see you on the water again sometime soon. Cheers!

Did someone say JIGS?

Great job out there by the way. And between you and Early Release working me in that direction I just picked up my first BFS setup. I remember trying yours at Hodges that day for the first time. I did pick up a few micro jigs too. I’m excited to get my first fish on it! I tried this week at Hodges ...

Were you out there on Sunday (the 27th)? I saw somebody out there zipping around in a motorized tube. When I was a diehard tuber, I never really wanted any kind of propulsion, but you guys are making me want to motorize for when I do break out the tube.

I got a needlefish out there as well. Haven ...

Love it!!!! Congratulations! Love the big bass smile too. Like a little kid on Christmas. Cheers!

Killing it!
