Who else would have sent it like we did? Forecast- Potential Thunderstorms, hail, & ⚡️ for the first 2 hours. 10-30 MpH 💨s all day. Fish all day seemed more scared than we were. Luckily Lake Badin has plenty of unused boat slips that we tested for science yesterday. In the end I pulled off another club dub, and had the only limit brought to the scale. 9lbs took the win.

I still love my Large Mounth but Miami waters are on another level. Caught my first peacock today (and about 7 more). I’ll guesstimate the PB to be 4ish lbs. Who wants to go to the Amazon for a 🏆?!
Work to follow the rest of the week. I’d be fired if I lived down here 🎣 🤣.

Just a tip not all panfish and bass spawn on sandy soil.. they prefer a hard bottom but will spawn on wood or other structures..

Just had a cool experience in Tallahassee Walmart, where I was looking for some fishing tackle and a gentleman, and his two young sons of knew who BLat was and we had a fun conversation about fishing and where we were going and what the fish were biting tomorrow it was just really cool experience.
I guess it kind of cool to be recognized as part of the positive influence BLat and SUF is have on the fishing community and kids.

When you’re out of work and need a few extra bucks to pay the bills and afford that fishing trip or a fishing tournament this is how I go after those $$$.
I hate that I missed yesterday’s live but the round table was awesome last night big crowd new faces. It’s good to see the community growing.
