Northern Pike
TechniqueHard Body SwimbaitsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureDocksI had a tough day of fishing out on lake Geneva and decided to put the glide in my hand. I caught this pike that was around 30” long. I also had a huge number of big bass follow the bait, more 5+ pound bass than I’ve ever seen in the lake. Later I also caught some smaller bass on a little Swimbait.

Smallmouth Bass
TechniqueHard Body SwimbaitsSeasonSummerStructureBouldersWas able to find a few good fish using the glide bait today. I only had a couple commit to the bait like this 3 pound smallie in the picture but I was using the glide in combination with my mega live to lift fish up and then cast back at them. Worked really well! Great Lake to throw bigger baits on.
