Spent a day on the water with Jamie Cyphers from Bass West USA and caught a few very nice fish. I used the 6" BBZ-1 floater and old school LA Slider with the Laimglas rods, Shimano reels, Maxima line. This is a fun show to watch.

Beauty is only skin deep. It is how you behave that matters. By Gord Pyzer. Bill Siemantel is the shrewdest thinker I’ve ever met, which is a good thing to be when you specialize in catching giant size fish.

As winter loosens its grip here on the east coast we all start to feel a little better. Just knowing there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and that tunnel’s end is fast approaching has my mind racing and my body close behind. This spring, just like every spring, I plan on catching a trophy. I do know however that the best laid plans can sometimes fall apart at the last minute, but there are certain guidelines that if followed will increase my odds of being successful. 

When it comes to NFL quarterbacks, what separates the greats from the near-greats? Often it's what they do at the beginning and end of a game. Blow the doors off the other team during the first quarter or toss a game-winning touchdown as time expires and lots of broken plays and errant passes are forgotten.

If we were going to play a game of name association it would start out something like this, Buck Perry (Spoon Plugging), Bill Murphy (Stitching), Bill Dance (the Tennessee hat), and then if we tossed out the name Al Lindner, he would have to be named as one of the most well rounded anglers for all species with small mouth bass at the top of that list.

What a difference a week makes; well OK, and a total attitude adjustment My fishing partner, Troy Lindner and I had a great year fishing multiple tournament organizations and ended up taking Angler of the Year Titles in both Anglers Choice and American Bass.

Good Friend of mine called BS about me catching fish with the BBZ. Jeff catches the biggest striper of his life at Castaic.

Well maybe it would be better to ask how to just find bass or is it the question, what’s the best lure to use? How deep do I fish? What time of day would be the best? The questions that one can ask in the pursuit of finding bigger fish are endless.

 A few weeks back I stuck a 30# limit @ DVL and just want to show the BBZ members how easy it is to use the Spro Phat Fly.
