Dog-Walkers on a diet
Sometimes bass prefer a snack-size offering over a full meal. Find out when and how to serve up slim topwaters.
A fall guide to topwaters
Fall time is topwater time, and topwater is one of my favorite techniques. There are so many topwater baits that it can be overwhelming trying to decide which one to use so I've outlined four different types of lakes and the baits that I would use on them in fall.
Without a paddle
You read and hear a lot about confidence and its importance in bass fishing — especially competitive fishing. It's all true.
Broaden your experiences
There’s a lot to be learned about bass fishing when fishing for other species of fish.
Follow the current
There’s a lot written about bass fishing current in lakes and manmade reservoirs. It’s something that we all know is important. But how many of us really understand it? I suspect not very many.
Remember the kids
Recently I had a chance to spend some time with a young man I met a few years ago at an ICAST show.
Wheeler Lake on a roll
Wheeler Lake used to be the place to go when you wanted lots of action with 12- to 15-inch bass. Now it’s also producing the heavyweights.

Two is good (but sometimes three is better)
Don’t let the lack of a spare anything ruin your tournament or your fishing trip.
