  • There is something special about wading through a clear stream and catching wild smallmouth bass without anyone in sight. Very peaceful and you get a feeling of wondering who else has caught these fish.

You keep pushing yourself forward and upward reaching higher milestones. You are already making young girls want to go for their potential as well in the bass world or in life in general just do it!!!!! Take care and God bless ❤❤❤❤❤

    As a New Englander and a back woods fisherman I feel you made a big mistake while carrying you fishing rod. Always walk with your the tip of your rod trailing behind you at a level. That way your tip won’t get caught on or in an overhead branch . I had to laugh when you caught and released that rainbow trout. Trout is a wanted fish here in New England. Native Brook trout are the tastiest and the smaller ones have no bones to worry since they are soft and not fully developed. Thanks for the video. Keep a tight line.

I bought 70 dollars worth of nikos last summer and gave many of them to family members to have for the niko experiance. I am still liking the small obsidian ones on a 1/16 oz jig head the best. I caught the first redeye bass i have seen in a decade in our creek on that lure.
