There’s one area of a lake I frequent where I learned to not throw baits that make contact with the bottom. I didn’t know what was there, but through trial and error I knew I’d get hung or loose a lure if I threw a Texas rig over there. I assumed it was a gnarly stump or something, but today I finally got some answers 😂 this side scan thing is truly a gift!

I’m throwing my hat in the ring for the SUF School Angler Development program on the co-angler side!

As I prepare to take the jump from BASS to the BFLs in 2025, I’m excited to continue to grow as an angler. I know I still have a lot to learn when it comes to making the right adjustments on the water, breaking down outcomes, and consistently performing when you’ve got a limited amount of time.

The coaching and guidance offered by the SUF School’s Angler Development Sponsorship would be a game-changer for me. This opportunity would not only help me sharpen my skills but also give me the tools to better understand the mental and strategic aspects of tournament bass fishing.

I’m ready to put in the work, soak up as much knowledge as possible, and become the best angler I can be. Whether I’m chosen or not, I’m excited about the chance to take my passion for fishing to the next level while competing in the BFLs! If any of y’all have fished as a co in both in the Bass Opens and the BFLs, are there many big differences you’ve noticed?
