Caught a GIANT | Day 1 Hobie Bass Open Series Harris Chain

The first Hobie Bass Open Series tournament of the year was down on the Harris Chain. I was blessed to have caught this Giant Bass on day1 to put me in good position for a solid finish. The Harris Chain is always good this time of year and this tournament was no exception. The Hobie Bass Open Series could not have picked a better time to be on the Harris Chain of Lakes. With a warming trend and a full moon this tournament set up to be one for the record books. The bass were staging up to spawn and could be found on beds and in any area in close proximity to bedding areas.

Good Job Bro!! It was nice meeting you out there!

[@garrettwadefishing]

[@ColsenTaylorFishing]

Nice! Great fish!

[@garrettwadefishing]

Florida is always the best chance of catching the biggest fish of the year

[@DoubleDigitAngler]

That fish wanted a 7 course meal 😂

[@garrettwadefishing]

No doubt

[@daddysbasshole4251]

Great day. Glad you finally got that big one that would not commit. Get a Rouge Tether for your phone, making me nervous when you are taking pics and fish are jumping in your boat. Which lake were you on?

[@garrettwadefishing]

I’ve got a tether sitting in the truck. I like to live on the edge🤣

Great video. How were you rigging that senko? Thanks and good luck in the tournament.

[@garrettwadefishing]

I almost always wacky rig. I was using the crossover o ring

[@JohnLong02245]

5th time’s a charm 👍

[@garrettwadefishing]

Yeah it was

[@wheatstatedude8343]

So, On a scale 1-10 what was your heart rate on that big one? Also great video.

[@garrettwadefishing]

Appreciate it. It definitely gets the heart rate going.

[@natasha.wade.]

Wow! How much do you think that big fish weighed?

[@garrettwadefishing]

I would say between 7 and 8 pounds

[@natasha.wade.]

That is BIG

Motors on kayaks lol what a joke , but a boat lol

[@garrettwadefishing]

Yeah it really sucks not having my knees hurt at the end of the day. And I’m not interested in having a dump for a boat so I think I’ll keep my tournament rigged kayak.
