MuskieTechniqueShakey HeadsSeasonSummerStructurePointsI was bass fishing on Heidecke lake, and caught a huge musky!!! It was a 10 minute fight, but I successfully landed it! I had just pasted a boat that was musky fishing, and as we chatted they explained how they havnt had a bite.. the bronco bug is not only a bass catching machine, but also lands legendary fish!

SpeciesSmallmouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureRip RapSolid ICASST tournament today! We finished 10th out of 40 boats with 6.9 pounds of largemouth and smallmouth. In the morning, we tried for largies in the reeds but found they hadn’t pushed up yet since the water was only 50 degrees. We then picked out a deeper rip rap shoreline where we caught smallies with a dropshot on the rock to clay transition line. As the day progressed and the sun warmed up the water, we went back to the largie reeds to find that the water was now 56 degrees and a few had pushed up into them. I picked a couple off with a flipping bait and got our limit with 10 minutes to spare. Overall a great time on the water!
