Sweet Summer Time !! The fishing has been great and just want to humbly thank our incredible customers for the trust you put in us to work hard to try and give you an unparalleled bass fishing experience. So blessed to guide folks year round as the trips and referrals keep pouring in! Here are some of the fun trips customers we have had since my last report on July 12th. Bob Nyce and his daughter made it in for another trip and the team boated 37 bass to 8lbs on a short morning trip. Next we had new customer John Person and son in for two days of fishing and they boated a spectacular 98 bass! Day one the pair boated 57 bass to 9-1/4lbs. Day two the guys got 41 with a pair of 8lbers. Next up was new customer Frank Bennett, Mr. Bennett had a great first trip with us boating 36 bass with one coming in just a shade under 9lbs at 8lbs 15oz. Next was yet another new customer Mr. Brian Swal. Mr. Swal and co. boated 44 bass on a short morning trip topped by a pair of 7lbers.

SummerSlam 2024 In Full Effect!! This may be my shortest fishing report ever as I had some people wondering where the report was for this week? So I wanted to try to get one out before I walked out the door but didn’t have much time to organize and get everyone’s pictures together, but I’ll bottom line it for you. The fishing is still absolutely CRAZY! There’s been 12 days since my last report and I’ve had 15 trips (some two trip days in there). Trips are typically producing between 30-65 bass per day right now with gobs of big, healthy and beautiful Summer Time bass! The most we boated was Dan Moon’s 66 bass the least was Steve Roadruck’s 19 bass on a slower day but that day produced our biggest bass of the stretch at 10lbs! That fish gives us 52 double digit bass this year!!!! Some really wonderful fishing right now for anyone looking to get in on it!

THOSE 8 TRIPS PRIDUCED 371 BASS!!!! Half the trips this last week or so have produced 53-63 bass!! First I’ll tell you about Mr. Bob Gordon. He came in to fish with us several days from Louisiana. The first 3 days of his trip Bob caught 133 bass! Day one Bob caught 53 bass to 7lbs 10oz. Day two Bob caught 61 bass topped by two 7lbers and an 8lber. Day three got cut short due to a bad storm that rolled in late morning but at that point he had 19 bass topped by two 9lbers! Then yesterday he boated 29 bass with literally just gobs of bass weighing 4-6lbs and also had one that went 8lbs and one that went 10lbs! He’ll wrap up his last trip with us this morning. Next up we had new customer Paul Johnson in to give it a whirl and he and crew boated an absolute pile of bass, if memory serves me correct, they caught 37 bass bass topped by bass weighing 7, 8 & 10lbs!
