Bassin' with Hookset Hawk

Check out this footage from four years ago! We decided to go fishing at the last minute knowing we could only fish for a few hours. I knew it wouldn’t be very comfortable at 51 degrees, but we went anyway! I tied on the jigging spoon and was able to catch a decent-sized white bass. The ride back to the truck was incredibly cold!

Check out this footage from five years ago! We took advantage of warmer weather in December and decided to fish the East Fork of the Stones River in Jeff’s Lowe aluminum boat.

Who said topwater buzzbaits don’t work in November? Not me! If you haven’t thrown a buzzbait in November, then you’ve been missing out! I found a good combination using a 1/4 oz. buzzbait with a Zoom Z Craw Jr. trailer. The bass were feeding heavily on baitfish so I chose the white pearl color. I removed the skirt and added the Z Craw Jr. and that was the ticket! Enjoy! Please LIKE & SUBSCRIBE! See the links below for the baits used in this video. 1/4 oz.

In this episode, we enjoyed our first fishing trip for the month of September. We didn’t catch much size but I did catch one keeper! The weather was awesome! The water temp was about 82 degrees so the summer pattern was still the deal. A combo of a drop shot and a spinnerbait got the bites! Jeff caught a few on a crank bait though! Enjoy!
