What Byron said. Let the fish tell you what they want if I get two bites doing something with a lure I go try to replicate it in similar areas of the lake.

Thanks Mark! If I were to do this trail again next year I feel very confident I would be able to do even better. It was super cool and I appreciate everyone’s support.

Thanks! I just could not repeat it on Day 2...

Thanks

Thanks! I never had a great tournament but it ultimately boiled down to consistency, showing up, and catching some fish.

Two more tournaments in VT and NY and then a winter of catching up on video edits, social media posts, rod building, working and some sporadic fishing to try for another top 40 on the next SUF tournament. Then I need to get to work this winter. Next season is TBD. I will probably keep to the local tournaments unless I get lots of sponsors.

Today, I didn’t perform as well as I had hoped, but I did give a shoutout to our Straight Up Fishing school and Brian Latimer as I walked across the stage with my little bass. Overall, it was an incredible year of learning. I managed to catch at least one or more fish in every tournament. Although I had hoped for a better year, in retrospect, it was truly amazing to fish in all these new bodies of water, facing off against 80 to 120 other anglers and ended up in 18th Place in points for the northeast division. Thank you all for supporting Ken and I. I appreciate Brian Latimer and this community.

Well, I only got three. I need two more.
