Decent morning! Started off with this “single scoop (TRF)” then got into the 3 pounders. Zoo Kick Frog, Texas Rigged black and blue Palmetto Bug, & Z-Man SlingBlades Double Colorado white and gray with a little bit of yellow skirt. Forgot name of color. Got out there about an hour and a half before sunrise fished until about 8:30. Great way to start any day if you ask me.

I’m a proud Uncle…my nieces and nephews are headed out on a fishing trip this week. My niece wanted to practice so she tied a water balloon to the end of her line.

Wish I would have caught him for the tournament! But the grind is on! 2 more chances to get to the championship I need to do work. Congratulations on everyone who made it first round! I hope to see u all in the Championship next year! If u haven’t been BLat and his crew really does a great job and makes it a fun experience for everyone u should really check it out.

It took me 20 years of fishing trips to Canada catch a 40 plus inch northern.

I took a (3) day trip to the Northwest Territories expecting to catch a 40” every catch.

A cold front moved in before we arrived…the fish were tight lipped.

On the last day I used a fly from NC and a Hawaiian fly casting bomber on a whim the pike exploded out of the water like a tarpon.

My daughter had a blast.. ready to get a boat and learn how to catch bass on Hartwell.

Congrats on all the participants in the SUF tournament.. everyone put up some crazy good numbers.. top 40 being over 90 inches is a really tight tournament.. look forward to seeing everyone at the retreat next year.. tight lines and remember to keep practicing for the next tournament!!

Here’s the link for the live today.

More expensive or less expensive rods? Which is better?

I got to see and feel BLats signature series today at ICast. Oh yeaaahhhh! I’m gonna order a couple. One spinner and one caster. Also if you haven’t seen the Bassmooch product line, take a look. Quality stuff and the founder seems like a great guy.

Hey SUF!

We have a great roundtable tonight.

We will have two hosts. Alex Sterling will kick us speaking about setting up tackle and how to chose what you'll need for kayak fishing. Then Brian Barde will go into the same thing, but with boats!

See you all tonight at 8PM EST!
