Respectable and fun day on the reservoir last week. Beat up the banks with a 7” speed worm and had a blast!

Landed this one and a channel cat lost another bass and missed a few bites. Lake Talquin Florida.

Foot note: God bless co-angler, it’s not for me.

So what happens after you go an SUF retreat, finish out your vacay, and work night shift for 2 nights before going to a week long training? You watch the SUF app videos on points, retrieves, and the Lake Juliette brake down... Then go Lake Juliette and bussssss'em!!! Got two good ones to start out my KBF tournament! Caught them on a soft plastic jerk bait, a loco special (she literally took it as soon as it hit the water), and a hybrid on a 3 in minnow. Thought the 20.75 was a PB when I first saw her... To quote Mr. Cube... "Today was a good day..."

After work fishing caught 3 from the bank. This one was the largest .. neko rigged crush city janitor fishing drop offs next to flats .. 6-8ft of water

I would like to nominate Ricky Taylor. First off if you serve this country then you deserve everything this country can give you back. Secondly i would like to see a kayak guy get to go in a boat lol.

Dad & I had fun this afternoon culling a bunch dinks from a friends pond to help with over population.

The smallies are on bed on South Holston! Water temp was 53

Good evening SUF Family.

I’d like to nominate my fellow Straight Up Fishing School classmate and friend, Mack Toon, for the fishing trip with Brian Latimer.

Mack has been a true asset to this community from day one. Whether it’s answering questions, giving honest feedback, or sharing tips that actually work, he’s always showing up and helping others. You’ll find him in every live class, fully engaged and contributing to the conversation.

What really sets Mack apart is his willingness to give back. He drove over two hours just to help me out at my very first fishing tournament, no questions asked. That speaks volumes about the kind of person he is. And let’s not forget that legendary junk fishing class he led. If you were there, you know exactly what I mean. It was packed with knowledge and straight-up fire.

Mack doesn’t do it for attention, he does it because he genuinely wants to see others win. That’s the kind of energy this community thrives on, and I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this opportunity.

Let’s get Mack on that boat with B-Lat!

I know we all want to get to our fishing spots and get to catching them, but one of the things that seems to be less talked about is water/boat safety. Keep your head on a swivel and always pay attention to your surroundings.

My favorite time of the year to fish!
