As Promised here is the first fish on the Workhorse today. Caught four in total from the back of my buddy’s boat. Rod looks & feels great, (Even though gloves were a must all day.) Could feel the bites well and the bottom. Can’t complain when your first fish on a new rod is 2lbs and some change.

Thanks again sir for building it! Will get another when I have another one break. Send thanks again to your wife again in the shipping department.

Cold day with the high of 45 degrees and the water temp 47 degrees. Threw a rattle trap over rocky points in less than 10 feet. Caught two with the lunker over 4lbs. Funny, didn’t seem so cold then 😀.

Only had a couple hours on the water, but man it was good. 5.7 pounder.

Y'all smell a skunk?!?! Not up in here!!! Nice 1.5 lbs. Hit him with a "Drop Kick" from the top rope! Haha! Had a couple of bites, but got a little to over zealous with the hooksets.

Couldn’t stand it so I got out and walked the bank. Jordan Lake caught this little guy on a 1/8 ounce plastic craw

Brian Barde and Kevin Skovenski ... Single digits!!!???!!! No wonder Kevin has come to the SUF championships the past 2 years with fresh new babies! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Went out for a couple of hours today before the next cold snap in Virginia. Forced a smile when my buddy caught the lunker of the day 😀

After all the talk of fishing humps and ditches last night I hit the lake today and found this guy off the steep side off a hump! He fully committed to this crankbait, what a fun bite! I really enjoyed the discussion last night and I’m looking forward to part 2

A couple hours with the kayak on Lake Lanier yesterday paid off for a couple good ones…. Kietech slow retrieval
