Some Light at the End of the Tunnel

Today my Dad and I went up to Clinton to try and see if we could catch a bass or two. I really don't want you to think that we had a good day because of the pictures, we caught 3 but we really had to work hard for them. We went for about 4 hours with out a bite. We were trying everything that we had in the tackle box to try and find something that worked. We ended up finding that a senko pulled over the weeds really slow, and then when the bait hit a pocket of open water we let it sink. The fish that is pictured came out of no where and inhaled the senko. I got a chance to watch the whole thing, it was really cool. It was cooler than actually catching the fish. I am going to try and post some videos here in the future with some guest anglers from Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin. I have already got a couple of people lined up and I should be posting them in a new video link called tip of the week. Hopefully this will help get the word out on a couple of new ideas and help everyone become better anglers. In the mean time the above boat ride is kind of a test for this. This is just a video of our boat going through a stump field at about 50 mph in about 2 feet of water. This is kind of a first hand look at what it is like to go through these backwater areas on the Mississippi. Next update should be from Minnesota. Tight lines, Pat
