- Come along with me today to learn how I breakdown the ledges of the Tennessee River. We will go over what kind of stuff to idle, how to idle it, what bass look like, and more! You don't want to miss this one!
This was a great video Jake! I learned a lot about finding and catching ledge fish. Also you replying to the comments cleared up a bunch more of my questions. Thanks!
Awesome! Thank you!

Great video Jake I went north that day got on some good smallmouth😂😂 if I see you out there will give you a wave
Heck yeah sounds good!
Good job

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Can you talk about bait positioning on schools please?
Hey there! I did my best in that video to explain that. We talked a bit about how if the school is off the bottom, we’re not going to drag something under them but we would keep something above their head. If they are on the bottom we can wind something through there or drag something through there. You want your bait coming back towards the boat with the current, because the fish are facing into the current. Please let me know if this helps!
At 17:00 you mentioned how you would never ever make another cast after catching a dink. Although I am not fishing the Tennessee River when I fish offshore on my lakes I notice catching a small one doesn't usually dictate what size my next few bass are. Does this apply only to the Tennessee River? Why do you think that happeneds there? I know that is a loaded question. Thanks!
Hey thanks for the question! When I said that it is kind of hard to hear but I added “in a tournament” in that sentence. So when I am speaking about not making another cast, I really meant in a tournament situation. The reason being is because generally speaking my first few casts are my best chances at catching a big one. There are absolutely exceptions to this and I have caught really big bass after catching small ones. In a tournament situation my goal is to make those first few casts in as many schools as possible to get those big bass to bite. Generally speaking those big ones won’t let the little ones eat for too long before they get involved. I feel like this applies on all lakes, but once again there are exceptions to everything!
Are you casting up on top an bringing it off or are ya paralleling the ledge?
Thanks for the comment! So in this particular situation, the current was flowing from the direction of the deeper water, and it was flowing up onto the shallow bar. My boat was sitting on the shallow bar, and I was casting into the deeper water and bringing it up the ledge so that it was moving with the current. I hope this helps!
@@JakeLawrenceFishing 👍🏼Good Deal
What size was the tremor head were you using?
3/4oz
@@JakeLawrenceFishing awesome thanks
What’s the big unit on the front deck?
It is an NBT unit!
Jake it's Garrett Osborne do you still do guided trips? I've told my little boy 😊we fished quite a bit when we was younger lol not sure he believes me
Very rarely anymore! I still do some on occasion but it’s been really hard to in between all of these tournaments.
Serious question.. why wouldn’t you Pick them apart with FFS?
At certain times I definitely would. In this particular situation I wanted to display how important it was to go through the cycle of baits and to get your bait back in there as quick as you can. A lot of times you won’t need to until they get finicky.
@@JakeLawrenceFishingthanks Jake!
Jake can you zoom in on the graph a lil bit when showing the schools thanks preciate the video man!
Did our best with this one, we will try to get in a little closer next time. Thanks for the input!
@@JakeLawrenceFishing zoom in on them numbers lol back in my day wouldn't ask something like that till 3rd or 4th date now they waste no time. Use a fella for his sim card lmao then act like they don't know ya when a Robertson, Lambert or Haynes comes around.
Keep showing how u graph for them im trying to learn that
I will do my best to keep showing that! Thanks for the input
Did you say trimmer head or swimmer head ? Obviously you were throwing a swim bait .
