Tom was on fire this week slow rolling a 3” swimbait on main lake points.

Out and about today probably caught 20 ish fish one decent fish to put on the board.. was cold out and north wind .. I usually hate fishing north wind but today was decent
Working the points…. Following Brian’s persistence. Wind picked up and swim bait produced. Lake Lanier has been playing tough today
Welp... Update time. When you fish points it pays off! My son caught 10 trout! I set the hook on a couple for him but he reeled them in. Actually hooked 12, but we let two kids that were fishing next to us catch them and keep them since they had not caught anything yet... The only thing better than getting paid to fish... Is getting paid to watch and help kids fish. He didn't place in the top three but had to be close. His two biggest were a 2.5 and 2.3 pounds. Anyone have any good trout recipes? Hahaha!
I didn’t catch a Barde bass, but I did break the ice and finally weighed one in.
The wind blew ALL day this little vid is a poor reflection of how rough it was.
Let’s talk about bass management in ponds and lakes. I been managing a place for the last year and we are still taking out stunted bass this year. This stringer is from this morning.
If you have to many bass in a pond then all your forage fish get eaten.
A little math for every acre of water you should be taking out about 40 lbs of bass a year. This place I am managing is nearing 20 acres so we are removing 800 lbs of bass this year. We removed 600 lbs last year.
We are also starting a bream feeding program this year as well.
Hope this helps anglers manage their bodies of water to make more quality bass.
Let’s fire up the grease !
First and second open water fish of 2025! I will post the 3rd fish of 2025 and my new PB in another post. It feels good to have some sunshine.
Level Performance Rods came yesterday. Very nice set of rods! Thank You Brian Latimer for the opportunity this year. I can’t wait to put these to good use.
