La Crosse Bass Fishing (Tourney Recap July)

[@ArtFerguson]

One of the most talented netter I’ve ever seen.

[@ArtFerguson]

Yup. Go with gut. Not very often does dock talk work. Love LaCrosse! Haven’t been there in years.

[@jamierice3189]

Just found your channel.. totally enjoy it

[@raymondmiller6432]

That is a good area to fish. You had the right idea.

Tip Top Video 🎣😃👌

[@stevekynard6658]

So sorry about your bad day. Love to see you do good. Hopefully better next time.

[@OldLadyAngler]

Loved that catch with you hiding behind the brush! Excellent! Thanks for another great tourney review!

[@krazykitty5750]

This is next door to me. I'm in SE Minnesota. There is great fishing all around.!!

[@timdoyal5]

My favorite kayak fisherman. Great video, looking forward to your next one.

[@AddictedAngler]

[@kristinefischer2289]

Still hurts ugh

[@AddictedAngler]

[@badfishingbissanschlagdril3637]

Nice💪🏻🎣👍🏼👍🏼

[@KSbassfisherman]

Great Videos. Keep up the hard work and stay safe out there. 👍🏻

[@KSbassfisherman]

P.S. Kristine has the Meanest Hookset in the Game. She rocks it.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks buddy

[@Jigman51]

I hate it when guys pull right in front of you and start fishing cause they saw you catch one. They probably figured you wouldn't say anything since you were a female and in a kayak. You handled that a lot better than I would have. You are knocking on the door, good luck in your next event.

[@kristinefischer2289]

That was frustrating - I’m sure they wouldn’t have done that if I were in a boat :(

[@lancevoorhees7318]

Are rules of etiquette observed of 100 yards from each other kinda understood? It seems with all that water around there would be no problem! I run into bass boats all the time and give them plenty of room but also continue to fish sometimes when they are within 60 or so feet coming towards me, I haven’t made anybody mad, but I will stand my ground in my kayak!

[@jamesw5836]

@@kristinefischer2289 Yes they would. There is no respect for other fisherman it seems. I see it all the time in pickwick.

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

Those guys were on the “Splash Bite” .... big boat jerks ... sorry had to say it . Way to overcome all the adversity of the weekend. Great that you were able to get a second drive unit delivered, you work that Hobie hard. Trust your gut you are an amazing angler. Good luck on the Susquehanna .

[@TV-sb2gw]

잘 봤어요👍 awesome

[@blindsquirrel]

Love the tournament vids. Your bad days are better than most of my good days.

[@badfishingbissanschlagdril3637]

😎💪🏻💪🏻🎣👍🏼

[@kirkreusch8415]

Great assessment as usual. Treck on over to Sturgeon Bay. My wife and I are going to try to work over the smallies there in the first week in August. You would always be welcomed.

[@kristinefischer2289]

That area has been on my radar for awhile! One of these days!

[@kirkreusch8415]

Kristine Fischer I’m sure you saw weights come out of the MLF event!? We have traveled to Washington Island on the tip of the Door County peninsula for years. We drive right through Sturgeon Bay to go up there. This will be our first time fishing the area. 🎣. Stay safe.

[@chrisp7652]

Tough luck. Hard to feel sorry for someone living the dream! LOL I an expert in my area catching snook. That said my last two trips produced zero fish. The last trip produced zero hits. Still, better fishing than not. Tight lines and God bless!

[@kristinefischer2289]

God bless! Fishing always beats work ;)

[@chrisp7652]

Kristine Fischer Amen sister!

[@NellysfishingAdventures]

Sux your drive broke but your lucky you got one delivered to you

[@kristinefischer2289]

Hobie team has drives on hand for competitors at this event, prettty awesome deal

[@NellysfishingAdventures]

That is awesome, gotta love Hobie. Best purchase I've ever made

[@Dark30Outdoors]

That’s fishing! Good on you keeping it real and having a great attitude!!

[@greengorillahunter2769]

I don’t have a hobie but come to Georgia and do the etowah river. Some big spots. Not as big as some in bama but big. I’d love to go down with you and Clint Henderson.

[@michaelmooney9724]

Great recap Christine. I always enjoy the videos. I had a great trip fishing but never got on the bigger ones. Looking forward to next one up there! Keep a wet net and a dry hat! Good luck and stay safe.

[@josephstephens1252]

So true

[@jamesharper7459]

I’m seeing a lot of nice fish coming from these pools! Being that LaCrosse/Onalaska is my hometown I fish these pools all the time! Great job!

[@kristinefischer2289]

I’ll be back soon!

[@yakchickbassfishing]

Man, I shouldn't click on your videos when I am at work lol. I just want to get outta here and fish!! Love watching and learning from you. Can't wait to see how you fish the Delta! Bet you have all kinds of ideas! I look forward to your "new eyes" seeing the Delta and how you will break it down. Your understanding of water and Bass is amazing. Great video!

[@cherokeeboggs534]

Awesome JOB Kristine. Love watching ur vedios and u fishing good luck on next tournament.. Ive been in the same situation. Before when I fished tournaments bk in the mid 80's t0 2000. Would love to start fishing tournaments again but its so hard when I work all the time. Be SAFE out there and GOD BLESS to u and ur family.🇺🇸👋😷👍

[@BassEndOfThings]

Nice job g sum nice catches. Debating getting a kayak but I also want a jon boat so I’m kinda inna pickle 😂

[@kumaboyy.7443]

Keep it up, you will turn it around!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Ugh trying!!

[@BravoBassin]

always love these tourney recap video's and looks like a really amazing place to get to fish!

[@bikerush1]

Are you coming to California for the Hobie BOS

[@kristinefischer2289]

Sadly I can’t make that one

[@BassingGalBarbara]

Still a great finish, great job! Great advice too!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks b!

[@Montana_Outdoorsman]

Looks like an awesome time! I really miss fishing for bass! Great video!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thank you!!!

[@jdizzle2987]

You always make me feel like I’m missing out on river fishing 😂 you’re an inspiring person, thanks for the good content!!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks j!

[@garyspopusa8311]

First, thanks for the video. The delta here is a confusing place at time so I always carry a small battery powered Garmin just in case the Lowrance unit gets weird. But... The thing that really got to me was the broken 360 drive. I have a PA-14 360 on order. I’ve head hobie yaks for 6 or 7 years and have never broken a drive ( I’ve bent a mast on a rock - easy fix!) so... What happened to the drive? How many hours were on it? Holy smokes - that’s got me a little concerned.

[@wilsondave3263]

I know that spot well, Had fish just to the south until the water dropped too low

[@baonguyenngoc5675]

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩👌👌💝💝💝💝💝

[@ron2893]

Do you check your hooks for sharpness ?

[@toddfarmer6210]

Never ever give up on pool 7. Moving on, hope you're getting on that night smallie bite on Mille Lacs, huge fish in that water. For fun you might want to throw a big spinnerbait or bucktail around the Southeast bays for some big northerns.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Mille lacs has been great!! And you’re right- I won’t leave 7 again!

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Kristine, mirage drive problems? Thought that never happens? You should start carrying two. Did you know that Oldtown Kayaks has a Minkota built in with autopilot and spotlock? You slay bass. It's a shame when your platform lets you down when it really counts. Stay safe from Pennsylvania . God bless

[@kristinefischer2289]

I’ve beat the crap out of this drive - only issue I’ve ever had with a Hobie drive, and it’s their brand new one. Always a few kinks - still hear less issues regarding Hobie than any other Kayak manufacturer out there. I love my kayak, it provides advantages FAR more often than it limits me!

[@cliffordhutt143]

Tough break with the drive. That is a rough way to start a tournament. You're going to love the Susquehanna! It should really play to your strengths as one of the best smallmouth rivers on the east coast.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Can’t wait to fish it!

[@AlexRuddFishing]

I’ve got to get up that way sometime. Looks like everything I like to do.

[@reddogleader1968]

Tough tournament. Admire your tenacity. OBTW your net handling is remarkable.

[@donbetz9611]

I enjoy watching you fish when i can't ( at work ) so tell me i think you said the driver broke how many hours do you have on it ??

[@joeoallen]

I honestly don't know how you fish those tournaments during the summer. Early morning or late evening is all I can take.

[@TravisDoesKayakFishing]

Okay, so I need the weekend to come so I can get on the water.

[@catchofthedave8681]

Yeah plus the way I look at it, If someone is telling me the fish are biting at X location, or I need to be fishing in Y area; unless it’s a close friend or a secret between a couple people, thats probably an area that is known and getting heavy pressure day in and day out; possibly even a blown out spot by tournament time. I don’t take information like that either. Also I usually think Im smarter than the average angler and can figure something out better thats to myself. The only time I do consider general info like that is if I just cant get on any pattern whatsoever, im having a terrible day, I can’t find them, and I’m frustrated.....so basically as a hail mary attempt.

[@fishermanmitch1]

I always enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing. I too have learned the hard way to always go with your instincts...at least if you're wrong you never say maybe I should of....Always trust your gut. I gotta use google earth more, it seems to be a valuable tool to you. Take care and good luck on the Sus! Where are you guys launching from? I used to fish it all the time 25 years ago, so I'm no help now. LOL There is a technique that Ike shared, that might interest you.

[@torrancescott2173]

Great job in the tourney Kristine, even with all the issues. Have you thought of installing a trolling motor or torqeedo? What would you prefer? Love the content!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks man! Actually just got a torqueedo 👀

[@coopermcdonald5882]

You need to come to lake lanier georgia and catch some big spots

[@kristinefischer2289]

It’s on the list ;)

[@juddlinette9318]

Fished pole 7 in the high school tournament really good in practice but just got beat to death caught keepers there but it was a grind

[@kristinefischer2289]

7 has the biggest fish- I believe that. Our guy caught em punching and flipping

[@LillyLegacyWWOD]

Love the content! You make great videos. Just an observation, your spinning rods look pretty stiff, I’m guessing medium heavy. Do you think going down to medium would help keep those fish pinned?

[@slikrik6098]

1st hey 👋

[@kristinefischer2289]

Yo!

[@bobbyswain7049]

Did those dudes just cut you off? Scumbag move if so

[@WaterandGround]

that is why nobody is liking boaters. Hopefully you kept landing some right in front of them.

[@kristinefischer2289]

They heard me catch three ;)

[@mikekpow4617]

Ohio State, better then Iowa and Nebraska combined. Just sayin'
