My son and I fished our first tournament together. I fish our local Wednesday nighter on the Susquehanna Flats. Not the size we needed but we caught a limit (3 fish for this one).

Fun day today. Caught probably 30-35 on the Upper Chesapeake with a custom crankbait, Colorado blade spinnerbait, and a creature bait. At one point we were catching them almost every other cast. Not huge ones but probably a 16-17# bag if we were in a derby.

Rocking the jersey for the big tournament later this year to raise money for research for my son’s auto immune disease.

Last tournament. Not a great day and had a game plan on some new water. Weather forecast changed that morning and didn’t make adjustments fast enough. Smaller one was on a whopper plopper in the morning and then went looking for offshore structure in the depth I was seeing fish. The bigger was 4.75 on an offshore stump. Lesson learned.

Crazy to say but never really got into fishing with a jig. Decided to go to the local pond to give it a try and went with the trusty PB&J. Got two and the first one DEMOLISHED it. My friend told me a jig bite is awesome and man he was right.

That was fun!
