  • It's that time of the year, fish are moving up shallow and getting ready to spawn. Fishing Rollins Lake blind with no practice so going to just go fishing and let the fish tell me what to do.

    Hey Damien. I love fishing this technique and wanted to share something I’ve had success with - instead of shaking your rod, simply lower your index finger on your rod hand so the line taps it while you reel and you get nearly the same affect. Appreciate your content man!

    Consistently placing well east cost west cost. Winning figuring them out regardless of the situation. I watched your Tenkiller videos. No one was working the docks like you. Every one was thinking shallow. But you killed them on a traditional summer time pattern. And you did this one with no pre fish very cool

    Man you really know how to break down a body of water and understand what the fish are doing, I really believe if you managed to get a boat deal and gave it a go at the Opens, you could get to the Elites in a couple of years. Regards from Spain, you have people rooting for you all over the world.

    Man, you are by far the most impressive tournament angler I've ever watched/followed. And I mean at a Pro Level, Opens level, etc it don't matter. The techniques/baits you use are somewhat similar but totally different at the same time to what we do up North. I always enjoy watching your videos 👍🏻 Congrats

    Hey Damian! Congrats on the win and big fish, great video! I've seen you use clip/magnet on polarized sunglasses with your prescription frames in a couple videos. I was wondering what frames you use (they are similar shape/style to mine) and which clip-ons you use with them. Appreciate the videos and sharing your knowledge, its been very helpful for me improving as an angler. Have a great day!

      Theres a lot of them in fresno, the one i usually fish is Sycamore Island but back in the day i used to fished all the ponds right under the HWY99. 4-7lb spotted bass in them. Havent been back to them since i was in highschool though. Im sure all those ponds and the Milburn pond are still loaded with big bass
