ShareSometimes its just about having fun. Here is my good friend Sieg Taylor putting the hammer down on some quality Clearlake bass.

ShareHow many times have you heard that there is a certain water temperature when the topwater bite starts and that its a waste of time to throw topwater in the dead of winter?

ShareCan you remember the last time you made that perfect cast? It was dusk and the cast landed right next to the cover. There was no question what was coming next! One twitch of the rod tip and seemingly out of no where the water around the lure surged upward then settled back down. One [...]
