Too bad the Fall Classic hasn't started yet! I caught a few little largemouths today and one nice smallie!

This one was caught on a Megabass X80 BFS Jr. jerkbait with a BFS reel and UL rod. 😊

Corey Richardson it happens lol

Found me a nice one while practicing for an upcoming championship on Lake Oconee, in Georgia..

Did some map research and found some rocky bluffs in 20+ feet of stained water. Didn’t let the light rain and 20 mph winds keep me away. Threw a shad colored rock crawler along the rocky bluff 10-12 feet deep in 71 degree water. Rewarded with a 4 pounder and two 3 pounders in less than 3 hours of fishing. Make it simple just listen to B.Lat!!

Finally got me one from the bank. Still out here so I’ll reply with more details

Enjoying fall break with my mini me lol…

Baits used MR6 crank bait and a Zoom speed worm 6 to 8 ft of water with one second pauses on retrieving.

Had a lot if fun fishing the Oconee river yesterday with 2 good friends..!

I can skip a spinning rod a mile... but with a baitcaster.... not so much..😭😂

Me and my youngest son went fishing for a little while this evening. Caught this 3 lb 2 oz LM on a fluke in grass beside this dock. Per Brian’s instruction - we were focused on the predominant feature of the lake - grass/weed beds along the bank.

I hung another one that looked to be similar in size but got hung up in the weeds and couldn’t get him out before he got off. We caught a few more but they were smaller.

Finished 3rd at Lake Anna for my club tournament today with 5 fish for 10 1/2 pounds. Lake was 75 degrees, 20 mph wind gusts and clouds in the morning. Bass are chasing shad so I used a wake bait above the thick hydrilla grass in the back of coves.

What tells me more about what should work…my lure or my retrieve? I found another good one this afternoon. Different lure this time (Zman willowvibe head with 4.5 Spunkshad). I picked it up after working a lipless crank bait for an hour in same area…no bites. The retrieve was to cast up to bank and work it up and down off bottom into deep water…bass would hit it falling or while laying on bottom. Does this tell me I should be fishing a different lure?
