During the ...

Great report my friend and that sunrise shot takes my breath away. Thats a big reason we all fish for moments like that we've all experienced. Great season !!!

Had some fun and some decent angling with my buddy Max at the Barrett closer today. Max got a couple nice four pounders before I even got warmed up. Not much topwater action for us today though. I had a steady pick on the mutilator mutilator and the new Yamamoto Slinko that I Carolina rigged. We got ...

There are things better left unknown. This may be one of them.

Lake Barrett Fishing: Bass & Crappie Dialed In!

Hey all we are at the finish line! It’s been a great year at the Big B and next year can’t get here soon enough. This report is actually from the previous week, but I will have my finale report for you next week. Hopefully ...

Awesome vid brotha .....

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.

So the early charity and insider club season is on for 2025 and it sure looks like this year is going to bust out with both numbers and size. I was fortunate enough to get an invite today and happily paid the premium for myself and the better half. After a very chilly morning (low 40’s if that) the ...

Today was a super nice day at the lake only thing missing the topwater.... can't wait till the lake opens next month... see you there bud

Thanks for a great post!

It was a really awesome day! Yes there was a legitimate 11.3 pounder caught. I myself reported to the group four fish over 5lbs, but in reviewing my saved scale numbers one of them was actually 4.8. My final numbers were 43 bass, 2 very large crappie and a slab of a ...
