One of my favorite lakes that I have been to. What lake do you think it is?

FYI, as a 2025 SUF School angler development selectee, I wanted to document my BFL journey this season through video. It's my first year moving from club tournaments to the BFL. Ken and I are fishing the Northeast division of the BFL, and I'm creating this series to share everything I learn or things I can share. They are mostly me just rambling, LOL

I just posted Episode 2, where I break down my tournament gear and boat setup.

A couple of fish; more importantly, I am not bundled up for winter. Spring may have sprung. :-)

Okay, the confidence is back. Today, I weighed 6 lbs 6.5 oz, 3 lbs 3 oz, and several 1 - 2 lbs. I had my wife with me for good luck. Water temperatures ranged from 48 to 55. The windy open water was 48, while the shallow isolated water was 55. The males were everywhere, including that shallow 55, while the females seemed deeper and tight to cover. I had my confidence bait and rod: a Genesis rod - 7'0" Med-Heavy Fast and a 3/8 oz jig with 3-inch trailers, color green/brown.

A couple of skunked trips were shaking my confidence. Tonight, I got two smallies, I think the first ones of 2025.

Makes for a Neutral evening - glad to get out there. I tried the hair jig. I was able to get two to come off the bottom but not commit.
