Speaking for myself im So glad the lord uses you as a tool to give me the tools and information that i use every day im on the water .yea i know most of.the things you teach me thruout the year but you remind me and hammer it into my.memory so that i dont forget while im in the heat of the moment. Because its easy to forget alot of things as your cramed for time fishing in a tournament and just trying to throw everything at them .slalot of times i wont slow down for a sec to even remeber certain things that will change the outcome in a posative way for me..but when i watch your videos every week it gives me that much more that i can retain and try to remember while in the heat of the moment when time is limited and the pressure is on during a club tournament on my local lakes. Thanks man i know that the more i watch the more that i learn and the more i use it in my 2 or 3 days of fishing a month. Thanks and God bless you and your family

Great info. Had the same general idea but today went out to union and a 45 degree slope from the bank to 15’ of water and threw a suspending Jerkbait with light twitches and pauses in between and man it worked. Biggest fish was 5lb 1oz. Thankyou!

I used to couldn’t stand Ike yelling but now I absolutely love this guy! He is one of the most real person ever to have fished professionally! He doesn’t hold back and he says what is on his mind! I would love to fish with him for a day or two just to absorb some knowledge from him.

I fish all winter here in Canada. Living on Vancouver Island means little to no ice on most lakes. The smallies bite all winter and are actually a little easier to target. Lately, dragging the C-rig is the ticket to BIG bass.

Cant speak for the rest of the country, but it always amazes me how shallow i can find bass in the dead of winter. I have hammered bass through the ice in 2-3fow in dead milfoil on a cloudy snowy day, with no water deeper then 4 feet for a hundred yards. Im assuming there is a small resident population that stays shallow

So what in the world do you do on lakes like Round Valley Reservoir in NJ where literally 95% of the reservoir consists of super deep water and vertical breaks?

If the water temperature is 37 degrees don’t go bass fishing. Go look for some walleye or trout or something 😂 I’ve been fishing a small pond that I usually wreck them in when the water is warm. But lately I can’t even get a sniff. You would think that fish don’t exist in that pond. But I’ve caught over 20lbs for my best 5 there so I know there’s fish in there. And big ones. I guess that’s bank fishing though. Maybe I should invest in a kayak.
