Re: FHBOVT 2015 Derby Entry Pictures- junior's first smallie

Re: FHBOVT 2015 Derby Entry Pictures

TheMiniMav and TheMaverick made the long trip out to our favorite water hole. From point A (front door of house), to point B (backyard) took roughly 15 mins, but only because we made the occasional stop to pick up rocks, and observe every ant on our path. The bite was a grind, but TheMiniMav did ma...

Re: Crankbaits

I usually use KVD's 1.5 chartreuse/black back pattern but really like the river to sea biggie Smalls square bills I got this year. I also lucked out in a great collection from a Fishhawker early this year, mostly the Bluegill patterns anything with white under belly seems to attract fish. Mostly fis...
