Nice. I used the hybrid hunter for the first time this year in grass on the Potomac River. I’m amazed how true it can run in thick grass. During the summer, I have used the full sized one also to catch fish.

I got out with my buddy’s small boat and went way up river to the shallows in my local reservoir. Water clarity was less than a foot but caught fish in 3-4 feet. Started with the spinnerbait and caught 1. Running the spinnerbaits threw dying grass, rock and wood laydowns but no further bites. Had a thought to throw the jerkbait around rocks and immediately change to it. Caught two good ones. Had a weightless fluke tied on but wasn’t feeling it until the sun warmed up. Then hung the fluke around some laydowns and caught two more.
Smiled when my buddy caught the biggest of the day on a spinnerbait.

Fall fishing has not been on fire but when I get a bite they have been good ones. No dinks!

Excellent advice. 1 fish at a time ….so true!

Excellent James to remind anglers to get some sleep. This is so important on two day tournaments.

I have been going through this same thought in my club tournaments. I’m doing better just relaxing and staying focused. I’ll write in my phone or a 3 x 5 card the night before on techniques/lures I’m thinking of using. Reviewing them when you feel the pressure is a good way to keep you on track. A fellow angler gave me some great advice about when you are running out of tournament time that you will naturally speed up. He said you want to make a conscious effort to slow down to catch fish. I have put this advice to work and 2 out 3 tournaments I was able to catch another bass to help my total.

P.S. BLAT - also said when you get that thought to move or change technique “just do it - right then”. I hope this helps. 😀

I do a lot after I fish. Should I have changed my color, size or action? Thats what keeps us coming back.
