Background
My dad got me into fishing even before I could hold a rod and ever since, I've been addicted to that moment when you get a bite and the reel starts screaming. I fell in love with Bass fishing while I was quite young and to this day, it's one of my favorite things to do in the whole world. Now that I have my boat, I can share my knowledge and enthusiasm with anglers from all over the country.
Techniques
I specialize in Tournament Bass fishing, as well as fishing for all lake species.

Canyon Lake Spawning / Post-Spawn Bass
Canyon Lake Spawning / Post-Spawn Bass
Jun 3, 2021 Canyon Lake
Canyon Lake has had many changes this year, creating a difficult environment for anglers, forcing them to adapt or go fishless. With the Big Freeze occurring in February, the bass spawn has been pushed back quite a bit. Me and my clients are catching both spawning and post spawn fish in variable water levels. My latest pattern to catch bigger bass has been to focus on the banks that transition from a sharp drop off to a gradually shallow slope. Access to 30+Ft of water is key and rocky - gravel banks can hold fish. Grass can be beneficial, as long as it isn't too thick. If the grass is tall enough to touch the surface, it is too thick for this pattern. 2-8 foot of water is my area of focus. My best presentation when grass is present is a purple drop shot. Using a 1/4 drop shot weight is perfect with a 2 foot distance from hook to weight. This lets the weight slowly sink in the grass and leave your worm on top of or above the grass. When no grass is present, a natural colored Texas rigged worm with a 1/4-3/8 weight can be quite effective fished close to the bank. Right now this is my juice but it won't last for long! Get out there and fish or book a trip with me quickly, and I will provide you the right equipment and tactics to catch these bass!

Lake Travis Largemouth Dock Bite
Lake Travis Largemouth Dock Bite
Jun 1, 2021 Austin
Lake Travis is starting to fill quickly with all the rain we have been having as of late. The conditions are improving and the Largemouth bite is great! Early in the morning, under overcast sky's, I could see bass roaming shorelines next to docks. Their proximity to docks is certain and can be replicated across the lake. As the sun breaks through, they will start moving underneath the docks where they will localize for most of the day. My best docks are located in 8-15 ft zones with access to deeper water nearby. Pitching to these docks from a good distance is key. Lake Travis has great water visibility, so spooking fish is very easy. Using natural colored 1/4-1/2 oz finesse jigs brought be the best success with catching the better fish hanging out under these docks. A great option to catch many many fish is tossing a natural colored drop shot rig near the backs of the docks. This bite should be on fire for a limited amount of time, so get on out there or book a trip with me quickly and I'll put you on em'.
