Lake Hartwell 2/10/24 🎣

Went out today and found bait fish by searching for birds, was throwing a freeloader on a vmc hybrid jig head using ffs sonar and only fish to commit was some drum and a catfish. But did get to talk to Ott Defoe at the ramp.

Seattle, Wa. 3.2 lb'er in some rough wind. Was testing out my new flipping stick/reel. Texas rigged shad of all things! 

To all my fish eaters how y’all like to cook y’all crappie?

Here's a pair from Lake Toho. This was my first time ever getting on a stack of fish right off some grass line. I've never caught so many big fish at one time. It was a good birthday week.

Winter is an excellent time to tackle maintenance and upgrade projects. Recently, I changed the oil injection filter and installed some custom reed valves.

Took a charter in FL during my birthday week. Unfortunately the guide couldn't get me on to anything until about an hour before the end. Fishing shiners is definitely not my favorite way to fish. However I do love catching fish! Look at the belly on this one!

Okay Brian Latimer on the last SUF live you told me if I don’t come back with a fish you was gonna beat me. Well is this big enough for you 😂? No but all jokes aside today was tough, the wind was howling and temperatures were pretty low, but we managed to get it done.✅ Shout out to my man Tiras Sullivan for taking me out today!

Setup:

B.Lat signature series sick stick with 10lb braid and 8lb fluorocarbon leader with 1/8 SMH ahakeyhway and a Plum SMH worm

First fish of 2024. Went out last weekend when it was 23 here in NC. Sunrise on a white spinner at a hot hole. 

MR-6 getting her done ✅ and just ordered the MR-12
