Got to take two of my friends kids out fishing. They’ve been really getting into fishing but don’t have an opportunity to get out. We had a fun evening.

Side note, does anyone have a spinning rod recommendation for kids 10+? Want something light enough but durable and sensitive. Under $75

Just received my prize from Barde’s online tournment! Real good neoprene rod sock!

Make sure you guys sign up for Barde’s online tournment too. It’s the same time frame as SUF and for a great cause.

Shoes are off, he’s feeling real comfortable!

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.

Don’t forget to get those last minute culls in! SUF and Barde’s tournment ends on Thursday.

Well since BLat went to the trouble of adding SM to the King of the Ring, I’d decided to go out SM fishing this evening. Caught this 21” smallie on a ned using Brian Barde sick stick replica.

Thought this was interesting. Received a local fishing newsletter from Lake of the Woods Ontario, a place we go every year to fish for a week. Late June, Smallmouth are in between Pre-Spawn and Bedding. If anyone wants a trip of a lifetime with all world class freshwater species, I’d highly recommend Lake of the Woods.

I am friggen estatic to represent the angler development program! Yes, I’d love a jersey as well! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

PSA - check your knots. Had a tournament yesterday, my father in law and I both lost a 4+lber because we didn’t check our knots. We were in a spot they were biting and just kept throwing.

Finished 2nd in my tournament this weekend with 12.89lbs. (Lost a 4lber 😬). Stayed in one spot for 6 hours, found myself some good weeds! Thank you for the 18-20” vibes Tron and Barde!! For 2025, one thing I wanted to accomplish was finish higher than 3rd in a tournament. ✔️
