Yesterday on May 19, had the pleasure of having John aboard my boat to go catch some heatly sized largemouth bass on the dirty Delta for five hour trip. Needless to say it was all about the chatter bait yesterday! John wanted to focus on the retrieval of fishing a chatter bait correctly and he was definitely rewarded when he finally got it down! Especially when the fish bit and struck his chatter bait lure in maintaining the load in his rod and winding the handle on his real properly and performing a reel hook set. He did not miss one by doing this technique! Awesome job John ! Hope to see you again! Tight lines !
