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.

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 😀.

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.

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! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

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

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 😀

Did some research the night before with my Lowrance app to locate points, contours and depth I wanted to fish. Our area had its first rain in over 3 weeks. Start of the day was 45 degrees and the rain stayed longer than forecasted. (Questioned why I was out in the weather).
Rain stopped around 1pm and sun came out with the wind picking up. Water temperature was 46 degrees and the air temperature was rising. Caught three nice bass on a crankbait in the next two hours. Bouncing it off of rock and wood laydowns in 5 to 10 of water with deeper water nearby.
Love it when a plan comes together!

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