Here are some pics from a trip to St Clair with@great_lakes_jake and . Now that tournaments are done, it’s time to have fun chasing bigs with the buddies again 💪🏻

It was fun looking at some new water and learning some new techniques that I’ll be using the rest of this season

🏆 WHAT A SEASON 🏆
This weekend and I capped off the 2024 Michigan Team Championship Series with 19lbs on St Clair; good enough to lock up Team of the Year. At the beginning of the season, we set that goal for ourselves, but knew it’d be tough with this group we were competing against. It was a challenging season and lots of unique bites across the state (although mainly smallmouth fisheries).

- Hubbard Lake, was dominated using perspective mode to locate bedding fish and cruising pre/post spawners, where we finished 2nd place.
- Saginaw Bay, was locked to the river due to a small craft warning, and we junk fished our way using a swim jig and flipping bait to pull out a win on our home lake.
- Houghton Lake, we missed the main pattern and ended up catching our fish flipping a 3/4oz jig and Texas Rig, finishing middle of the pack.
- Finally, St. Clair. We were able to locate some shallow smallmouth that bit early on a topwater, giving us enough to round out the season with a 5th (?) place finish to seal the Team of the Year.

I wouldn’t have been able to compete with these other teams and do this without support from to give me the ability to practice and out in the work needed. Also huge shoutout to for being the title sponsor of the video series for this event. Finally to , , , , , and for equipping me and supporting me this season. These are brands that I’ve used and trusted every single event and could not have done any of this without their support, truly.

And to anyone with a goal, if you determine a goal for yourself and work hard with unrelenting dedication and effort, you can make it possible. This season personally was much needed. It showed me again that I can compete as well as achieve personal goals I set my mind to…but that’s a story for another post.

Anyways, thank you to all of my friends, family, and people who have sent words of encouragement and support. It means more than any of you realize

Largemouth are fun too 🎉
The OW Sniper and GLF Snack Craw has a finesse profile but is a bait I count on every single trip. It’s become my confidence technique and is a bait I turn to when I need a bite. If you’ve not tried this combo yet, you really need to give it a shot

Sometimes you’re the hot hand and sometimes you’re the net man! held it down today and caught all 5 weigh in fish.

It was one of my most fun days of fishing in a long time. Good laughs, good decisions, and good timing helped us take 2nd! 🥈

Have you ever caught a bass like this?! This is now the 4th time I’ve caught this same fish. It’s interesting on smaller bodies of water to be able to catch the same fish over and over again

This bait gets overlooked on Lake St. Clair and most anglers don't fish with this lure. A lipless crankbait is a bait you need to throw for spring bass, because it triggers reaction strikes from fish in dirty water.

This was one of the most insane days of smallmouth fishing ever, with my long-time friend, Ryan Collins! Lake St. Clair showed out and we caught a bunch of fish in shallow water!

They’re no masterpiece shots, but this big girl kicked off my ‘24 season off strong.

This big girl fell victim to a Deep Diving Jerkbait (super slow sinking) on the backside of a main lake point. Water temp was 40° and the fish was suspended off the break on an isolated patch of grass around big pods of bluegills. Falling water temps made the bite tough with fish suspending off of the breaks, but wind blown areas had slightly warmer temps. Working the bait aggressively got fishes’ attention and long pauses (15-30 seconds) allowed fish to slowly creep up to the bait before finally committing.

Fish are getting more and more pressured, and that results in them being tougher to catch. Great Lakes Finesse is now a staple in my boat from the Flat Cat to Sneaky Underspin. If you’re a smallmouth angler and haven’t tried these baits, you’re missing fish

With all the craze of LiveScope and Forward Facing Sonar, here are my top 3 times that I opt to turn it off!

Huge thanks to Shaye Baker for putting this together for me. Super humbling to see this on Wired2Fish

Forward-facing sonar has completely revolutionized the bass fishing industry and changed how the game is played and will be played for the foreseeable future. That’s an obvious statement whether you’re a fan of the technology and the hard, cold reality if you’re not. We’re not here to take a...
