Working Hard for the “Big Easy”

Any time a professional angler qualifies for a Bassmaster Classic, it’s a positive step for his career, but unlike past Classics on reservoirs or more typical rivers, this February’s “Super Bowl” presents an even wider set of challenges. Heading to New Orleans for practice I suppose I had just as many preconceived notions as much of the public about what the Louisiana Delta would be like for the upcoming tournament. After all, two of the largest disasters in American history, the BP oil spill and Hurricane Katrina, directly impacted this fishery since the last time BASS visited....

Bass Pro Dave Wolak on Dead Grass and My Poor Flipping Ability

This week, I had the chance to chase largemouth on the Potomac River with bass pro Dave Wolak. It was cold and breezy, and though the section of river we hit is known to hold an astonishing amount of bass, they were astonishingly tough to pattern. Despite pounding every likely late-season haunt, only a couple fish opened their mouths. But it didn’t matter to me. If you spend a day fishing with a guy like Dave and don’t come away a smarter fisherman with some new tricks, something’s wrong. Here are a few pointers I gleaned from this Elite Series angler. If It’s Brown, Flush It Down...

BASS FISHING TIP: Wolak Talks Spinnerbaits

It will be a 3/8-oz. pearl/white spinnerbait with double willow leaf blades and a white plastic trailer, a lure the Yamaha Pro has been using for years on waters throughout the United States. "I honestly don't think a fisherman needs another lure this time of year," Wolak said, "because it's hard to find another lure that can be retrieved so many...

Time To Do A Little Homework In Preparation Of The 2011 Tournament Season

We’re getting into the time of the year when I actually have a little time to spend with my family and even have a little time for myself. When I’m not hanging out with my wife and son and going to school functions, I’ve been doing a lot of running in preparation for an upcoming marathon I plan to run in January. That will be my first marathon, and I’m looking forward to it as a milestone in my life. I don’t really have any commitments to fish any more tournaments this year, which is nice because it gives me more time to focus on the upcoming Elite Series Season. The late fall...
