Spent the weekend fishing at Buggs  Island. Spent a lot of the time using plastic swimbaits. Caught stripers, crappie, white bass, catfish and largemouth bass. Rained mostly Saturday was miserable with rain on Sunday. Fish don’t care and do bite in the rain. 😱  

Monday I leave for the next Tour event on lake Eufaula. Looking forward to solving problems, building some plans and executing on opportunities.

Tournament went OK, learned a lot. Fish were not on beds yesterday and late this morning beds were popping up.

You gotta rig your swimbaits correctly!!!

Finesse swimbait time at Buggs Island on the Virginia/North Carolina border. 

Here's the 3 colors I'm fishing mostly right now in my soft plastics. Let me know yours as well.

Worms - Smoke purple, Green pumpkin Goby, Coopertruese

Topwater - Propbait is white with black back. Frog is white and black, big walking topwater for herring spawn is chrome

Jerkbait - Regurgitated shad. (only one)

Spinnerbait - Bluegill and white/ chart

Swimbait - Pearl and opening night

That's all I have tied on right now....

There's a time to peg your sinkers and a time I feel like it's best to leave it alone!

Smallmouth caught while practicing for tournament this weekend. Hope I can find her again and she bites this weekend.

Just a reminder that I worked on a mini workshop with the wacky rig. This is will certainly catch you some bass RIGH NOW

Hi everyone! I am new here and just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a multi-species angler from Ontario, Canada. I recently had a chance to travel to Wheeler Lake in Alabama for blue catfish which was a very memorable trip! I look forward to seeing your catches & chatting fishing! 😊
