This was his first Smallie ever and he was so excited he kissed it before realizing the fish. He missed a few but learned how to effectively fish a jig and had the trip of a lifetime.

Today’s client wanted to learn new techniques as he has never Bass fished. We went through the basics of swim jigs tubes. Ned rigs had a great time. He learned a lot. The current was fast. The water was high, and the weather was basically horrible as it stormed then we went out for four hours. We got cut short 40 minutes due to the next storm front combing through. He still managed nice bass and had a great time on the water.

Caught some giants along the bridge as well as rip rap banks. Seemed to be keying in on either ned rigs, hover rigs, chatterbaits in panfish colors. Mixing betweeen moving and static baits was key.

Tossing this Spinnerbait and hooked into about a 10 pound catfish. Was very impressed with the durability of this bait, didn't bend out even considering the weight of the fish and the lengthy fight.

This father and son have never caught small mouth bass until they were with me. It was a great Father’s Day trip.
