I absolutely love bass fishing, it really get's the stoke juices flowing for me. I've been creating fishing content through KrakenBass.com because when I started fishing I struggled to know where to go, what to do, and wasn't very successful. I'm hoping you can avoid all the marketing hype out so you don't buy things that wont help. My mission is to help others with tricks, and tips I wish I'd known years ago. Hopefully, they will work for you as well as they have worked for me.
