I caught my largest smallmouth in Midcoast Maine. Some of the best smallmouth fishing I have ever witnessed!

6 pounds even, Largemouth, caught this year on a 10” curly tail junebug

20 1/2” Smallmouth on a rapala orange and green. Scale didn’t work, so no weight.

Thank you also. Your school has challenged me to take more chances with baits I never considered. That confidence to believe you can catch something o t hose baits is game changing.

Ken Pfeiffer I’m trying to figure this lake out. Should be called more of a river.

I uploaded a photo with the Garmin data for the day. I was all in that the bass would be targeting blueback hearing schools. I threw all these baits with colors similar to this and a few late with darks due to visibility. The only thing they hit, Black & Blue senko, hook tip back side egg sack,and tip towards nose.

Brian can you dive into the electronics portion more? I definitely struggle with this category.

I recently watched a few of his podcast on spinner bait fishing retrieval. How you burn it in extremely fast, keeping the spinner right below the surface without breaking.

Another super detailed and experience fisherman. I’m excited to see what Randy brings to SUF.

I struggle with getting caught up in the moment. I love finding the schools, and watching the action, but I get stuck and don’t move when I’m in the middle of it. Next thing you know, half my days gone.

I love jigs. Especially with a creature type trailer on it. I just never have the best luck in the fall with them. What do you typically target when throwing in the fall?
