Fished Kerr Reservoir ( Buggs Island) for my club tournament and finished 5th. I caught all my fish on a nail weighted fluke. You had to let it sink and watch the line as you twitch it. Surprising how light the bite can be.

Had the chance to hop in a local tourney today with my good friend. After a very epic day on the water, we emerged victorious with our bag weighin in at around 25lbs along with a Big Fish 👑. 8/6/6/3/2

Got on a lipless bite! That was exciting, 58F was the water temp and the pattern for today was all my catches where at the end of docks.

Here's my PB Largemouth ... A present I gave myself on Christmas Day 2024.... Oconee River, Dublin, Georgia. On an old school texas rigged black & Blue worm... 24.25", 7.62lbs.. (should've weighed 8lbs, some people say)...

Wow, what a great outing it has been. I had a blast fishing and it was really cool meeting some of you that are on the app! Got to talk to Gene Jensen, that was cool seeing what he had to say! Brian, it was great getting to talk a bit more with you in person, thank you to you and your crew for what you all do to put this thing together! Russell was awesome, I'd be down again with it!

So my pick for the 2025 SUF event is this one, my new PB I had talked about at the awards event. Got it on a Zman gill colored sling bladez. Love that bait. I got to weigh it, but had nothing to measure length 😞 and I need to work on my camera skills but 5 lbs 1 oz. was the weight. I've measured some 20s in the past and doing the ol eye ball guesstestimate, this fish was over 22in. Yup my fish story!! 😆. BIGGEST bass I ever cought! That was on Sat, believe me I tried to pick that area apart on tournament day two or three times, lol... anyhow.. What a great event!! And for me a much needed vacation ! ( I'll put a pick of my tornament day go to baits in here also. The top water bite was so fun, we don't get that up here till mid May, and it only last for a month or so when a buzz baits really effective)

Need a fish ID. Was fishing a new creek today. Was expecting largemouth, but started catching spots. Those were easy to identify due to the extra rows of lines below the lateral. Also caught some smallmouth-hybrids it seems. Biggest fish appears to be a largemouth but the mouth doesn't extend past the eye. So is it a spot?

So what do you think we are looking at? It was close to a point, a flat, and a saddle. I definitely think the shad spawning too (second picture). So I thought maybe catfish, but with the last video "Catching Spawning Bass" I think it could be bass spawning deeper since it is on Lake Juliette which has clear water.

Ugly flathead cat caught on a crankbait while bass fishing.

Hit up Lake Juliette on Sunday... The ol wacky rig came through. Targeted a shallow saddle flat with cover on both sides. I literally cast out my rig, sat pole down to adjust my kayak, picked up my rod, and a fish was on it.... Tried fishing slower the rest of the day, but only got one. I didn't think about moving further back off the bank until I read Alex Sterling post last night. Anyways, a good bass on Juliette is a win for me any day so I'm happy with it.

Had a surprise today, through the chatter out and snagged some what I believe is about 20 yds of tip up line someone either cut or broke off, started pulling and this was on the end of it! I thought it had alittle life left in it, but have know idea how long it was there for. Caught one real nice 3.8lbs bass along with some others and one more pike.. Fun day, good to be out... Everyone have a happy Easter weekend!
