This week I learned some things I never knew. Ray Brunetti signed up for a 3 day Angler Development trip. In 3 days we covered finding fish offshore using electronics, learning how to pattern bass on points and a full boat electronics overview with a lowrance tech.

☀️ We had wind, cold, 70 degrees and flat calm blue bird conditions all in that period and it affected the bass differently every day.

🍁fall is a good time to learn how to follow bass in different conditions. Things change fast in fall and recognizing how the bass react or DONT react is cool to watch in real time.

📝everyday we used the same lake breakdown process explained here in the app. It works everywhere all the time!

Bank:Pond: Hook set question

I worked this stretch of the bank for about and hour had three fish on the line landed two.

In regards to hook sets are there different hook sets for different lures/techniques?

I saw a video of Bobby Barracks in the app say that he likes to reel a load into the rod and sweep it to set the hook on a chatterbait. I’ve been using this method. But I’m curious if there are different philosophies on hook sets and what you all believe is the most effective?

I decided to switch up lakes today and go to Old Hickory Lake. Not bigs but I had a lot of fun cutting up with my wife and I even had senior that wanted me to fish his dock.

This has been a incredible day of fishing and learning. SUF elite angler academy day 2. Today was all sonar logistics and systems training.

I’m gonna go live in the private Facebook group at 12 pm est today. We’re gonna look at side scan imaging with a certified Lowrance tech.

Would you guys be interested in a fall fishing live from Greg Blanchard and Obedie Williams?

So I’m putting myself through the “fall bass learning boot camp”. Basically I take an hour in the morning and dedicate it to learning all I can about the current season. Typically through a b-lat video

This might sound super simplistic but I’ve reached a aha moment using google AI.

I’m pretty good at following directions, but when something is or isn’t working I don’t really understand why Rather it’s bait selection, location, conditions etc.

With AI if I want a deeper understanding I can just ask it and it gives really detailed answers. (From this I’ve basically written reports on the things I’ve learned to better retain them)

Literally ordering baits with a pictures of “Florida threading Shad, and bluegills” pulled up on one monitor and picking the color and profile that best matches it.

I just think it will give more confidence in the decision we make on the water if we understood in detail why. Like why Shad go shallow in the fall, or why bass feel the need to eat up and the rabbit hole is endless.

If this is everyone’s common way to study then just remember I’m new and mind ya business 😁. But if you haven’t tried it I recommend it.

🚨Hey SUFam! By request of a new member Darrell Rodgers , tonight’s roundtable discussion will focus on how anglers choose different spots to upgrade fish during a tournament. Tune in tonight to share your strategies and learn from others. Looking forward to another great session together tonight at 8PM EST.
