Shakey Heads aren’t supposed to work on Peacocks. Agitated them enough on their bed. Got 2 on SMH Purple Rain a few minutes ago.

Just to put it out there. This weekend i'm going to be spending my last weekend chained to the bank.

I've entered into an agreement to pick up a Lowe Stinger 188 mid May from someone we all know and respect. I'll be taking another trip to South Carolina for delivery.

This opens the door to tournament fishing as a boater and pushing my company forward. #Extremely excited!

Mack Toon and I were discussing the new Berkley Forward braid during a round table.

A lot of what I do is testing gear. Long story short, while the “Forward” model of the Berkley braid absolutely casts further than Daiwa J-Braid or PowerPro x8 with less effort… it has just too many weird negatives to continue to use after a month of thorough testing 5+ days a week. I’m restringing my spinners right now.

Save your money. I can’t recommend it in good conscience.

Watching BLat’s Lake Hartwell on YouTube. Day 2 “… Bullcrap, WAP WAP WAP, WAP, Pause! WAP WAP Pause, he got it!” I was rolling since he saw my style warming up.

Some people I fish with down here are constantly telling me I work a Jerkbait too fast and doing it wrong… as I’m holding the fish with a smile.

I can’t wait to have them watch the video. Thanks B!

AI Analysis - Continuing on Tim's idea, he and I got together and were able to pull some sample sets of Data for Barde's specific need and some other events. Just to give you an idea what is possible from a couple of out of work IT Executive guys with developer resources. 🤡

5lbs 9oz, 21 1/4” on a 1/8oz Purple Rain SMH kit. Usied a Level NGSX610LF with a 1000 size Stradic spinner. Everything used except the reel was bought at the SUF retreat.

Ok it’s time to start the path of getting a boat to open doors to tournaments and expanding the guide service. Let the exercise in patience begin…

First day back in the Everglades. Threw an SMH most of the day. Was an unusually slow bite today. Got a decent amount of Largemouth. Then I threw a Jerkbait on and landed this Gar. Measured with a marked stick at about 28”. Don’t even think about handling these. Nothing good can come from trying.

We have heard BLat say a few times that he believes the cold water fish mouth seems harder than when the water is warm. While I’ve been touring the frigid northeast from my home warm waters in South and Central Florida, I have to say I completely agree. Not kissing butt. I’ve noticed it during hookset, especially on a jig and even release. It is an adjustment. BTW: the layers required to keep myself warm is insane!!!
