Run parallel to the bank and covering as much water as possible was key to getting bites

Was able to get it done on Bull Shoals Lake for the Arkansas Kayak State Championship. Day one measure for 73 inches, my main bait of the day was the Megabass Super Z-2 and Z-3. Mainly covering water then slowing down and picking apart an area that I caught fish in. My two biggest fish of the event came early in the morning on that crank and were very aggressive and thrashing around. So having a soft rod was so crucial. Then day two was better on paper for me with 77 inches. All but one was on the Picasso Football jig paired with a strike king menace grub. You had to drag the jig to trigger the bite. For areas to fish, I mainly fished channels swings but in the early morning I fished big expansive flats. Very thankful for the win and ready to get after it next year!
