  • Here we are at the Tn BASS State Kayak Tournament on Chickamauga Lake. 2 days of tough fishing against 107 of the top anglers in the state of Tennessee.
    Most of the fish were caught on my favorite ‪@YUMBAITS‬ 4 in dinger, bubblegum yellow swirl. I kayaked in the Old Town PDL 120 Kayak.

    Congratulations John on your top ten win! Your panic and anxiety toward the end had me sitting on the edge of my seat. Those were some very nice fish. Good job Brother!

    You are busy catching fish with your spinning reel while others are busy clearing up the bird nests with their baitcasters. I use both myself, but never have any issues with my spinning reel and love the reliability which is essential for time sensitive situations like fishing tournament's.

    I’m in the same boat. Just did my first tournament a couple months ago and it was a blast. In speaking with a guy who had won AOY he keeps its simple just like us so that was comforting to hear. If a guy landing 90” (+)days only uses soft plastics 90% of the time I don’t see why it wouldn’t work for us

    Hey BRO! You did Good. Don't give up. You still post the most amazing places that I have never scene. It's not all fishing. The places you go and the posts that you share are worth all of it. I'm an old washed-up caver. I have seen things that most people will never see. TN is one of the beast places to enjoy Gods great work. I lived there and now reside in north AL. I still go up there to enjoy the beauty. Caving is the Best. GOD BLESS!

  • @johnpeters6324
    @johnpeters6324 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job John. Don't worry so much about spooking the fish so much unless you're sighted. I have a paddle fishing kayak with a Lowrance Hook 5 flasher and man the screen lights up with fish after a boat or jet ski passes by.

    Dude! John!!! You were a 1/4 of an inch from 5th Place!!!! I hope you realize this!!! I am happy for you. Nice going bud. Please tell me you stopped and got some Mexican on the way home from the tournament! Still owe you a Mexican dinner in Richmond... Let me know if you are ever in the area bud...

    Congratulations upon exceeding your goal! By the way, I really liked the pre tourney video wherein you caught the two five pounders. Personally, I've never seen a spotted Bass that big. Best of good fortune for your future endeavours!

    I know it was kind of nerve racking there towards the end, but you stayed persistent and it paid off.
    Congrats on the top 10 finish.
    6th place out of over 100 kyaker's was not a bad finish.
    Really wish that 20" would have come out. That would have been exciting, but a 17" is not a bad fish.
    I had a day like that recently, but stayed persistent and wound up with a 22" smallie that was almost 4lbs.
    My last cast of the day was a 6.5lb large mouth.
    I have used quite a few of your tips and have improved my catch ratio and quality ratio 10 fold.
    Stay safe on the water brother.

    Outstanding!! Proud for you, John. One of the nicest guys in fishing. I've been following you for a long time and YOU ARE much improved. Don't worry about what you use to catch fish. Just be you. It's working. One of the things that may help you grow even more is electronics, particularly Live Scope. That's how many of the pros are learning bass behavior and what works.

    I've been watching your videos pretty much all morning, then this video pops up, a great tournament finish, I've committed before on this that the more time spent on the water the better you'll become, creeks & rivers fish differently than lakes & I guess you know that by now, I watch mainly bass fishing videos on TH-cam 75% of the time, don't know everything but I'm learning, but 1 thing that I've learned with these tournament guys if they are fishing more than 1 day is get all they can on the 1st day continuing to upgrade cause you never know what the next holds! It's great to win some extra money for all that hard work plus it makes for a great video!

  • @FishingWithZach

    Great finish and tournament showing overall brother. I've spent a little more time around bass tournament anglers and I can tell you any one of them would take that limit on a tough day. You stuck with your game plan and worked hard to grind it out. Starting to see your consistency there. I know it doesn't always work out but it did for you. Well done John and blessings

    the yumdinger was the ticket - you did it - solid - you have to keep doing some tourneys, do the natl and do some scouting - keep expectations realistic - you may have to do it a few years before you discover prime pattern - go for some big smallmouth also #on fire #creds
