day long that was a [ __ ] yeah I'm gonna have my own about that jig we actually would have been so dangerous if we would have got together back in the day fishing tournaments I did I fired the stick fought hard I know but the thing was when I was fighting the stick the stick came on when the stump came up and shook his head it was awesome because sure enough digging we're gonna catch him oh it's gonna happen you know what I don't like this people people think you want to go on a nice sunny day these are the best days old off I shouldn't have let that other one pull off here's the thing gang

one I know that's the cast right there not actually one that was a stick I've done that before I fought a pipe wrench in the current at the river one time for ten minutes thought I had a world record smallmouth you know how that current wasn't even close to where they're at yet oh there there I bet you the other side of the point - yeah and gig hashtag zone alive for the suits any questions we've got that Auto chart live going to so these lakes are not mapped at all yeah this this lakes not on the lake master if you look at that Wes we're actually creating the map yeah we're yeah when I first started fishing this like I you know you shoot we had no idea you just follow the weed edge and didn't realize there was any humps or anything like that oh yeah hang on here but like that one that one that Kevin caught right there that's like the average I mean we're we're gonna catch nice one that's not you didn't move that well this time of year all these lakes they it's just they're a lot bigger we never used to be able to do it they changed the season here in Michigan so you can catch and release most people down south have no idea like bass season doesn't open in Michigan and tell Memorial weekend I'm gonna rewind time real quick where we're sitting right here right where we're setting here in about 20 to 30 yards I taped a hole jig show with Carl Jacobson two years ago this week right where we're settin big uns and what you what you what you'll find out this time of year up here is when you catch one generally they're potted up really good watch me sneak right in here that is a story alive I just want to drill right down that drop that's fine with the old jerk and twitch a lot of stuffs gonna start happening here in about 50 yards and gang we're gonna kind of we're gonna kind of be serious fishing before this storm hits the we'll try to get a radar up in a little bit there's a storm pushing from right there across the lake it's a it's gonna it's gonna hit I hope we don't have any lightning or anything though I think it's just gonna be just rained see that was not that bat-radar right there that was not supposed to that was not supposed to hit until really later today we were supposed to get showers but it was it's gradually got bigger through the night I woke up this morning and it was all red it's dissipating a little bit as it hits the land that's a good you know the fish already wet that's the beauty and here's what's cool is is we we taped his own a show yesterday Eric sooc Vandy Kevin wasn't home yet Kevin wasn't here yet driving home from Toledo

the rocks right there one rock right there yeah you're fixing to get lunch bucketed but here's the deal let me show you something right here as we're going along this is filling it in it's on auto chart cuz this Lake we were talking about doesn't have a map and here's all let me show you what we got going here let me show you what I got going here but we're making the map we're making the map of this Lake because it doesn't kind of Lake man oh gosh I don't know we're digging is it now just a three and a half unbelievable and I mean I know like hey zona I think I could get to like this jigging no no I said this is for all my friends at home if you ever watch Kevin VanDam on the Bassmasters or you watch him in some of his match fishing when he gets going with a jerkbait he'll make babies cry okay there's gonna be steel flying and I thought to myself this is for my buddy Greg Hackney out there I thought to myself if I can get him to slow down and put that jerk bait down for an hour I'm doing this in honor of my buddy heck exactly little Ewok oh you think he would be freaking pissed off Oh you know the only thing Oh oh my god he slapped blinded man slackline dit the only thing better than hopping it through the grass like that is dragging that football head through the rocks I like the feeling rock up there yeah I didn't know well when I feel the rock you know what usually happens yeah I caught that when I was fishing inside threw to the left throwing a slow shallow but I would say about right there you know honesty and here's what's really weird about this I'm actually being serious settling I got to settle myself down for a little bit because we're not even two where they're actually yeah I'm serious I got a [ __ ] oh yeah I got it I gotta settle down a little KBD chunk of the structure jig half-ounce what what goes on in march/april and generally November October November mid-october November is all these fish that live on these flats all these fish that live on these flats and under the boat dock and under the boat docks and stuff like that throughout the summertime what they'll do is they'll pod up on these little cabbage turns all these little cabbage turns and we'll graph this later today to to really show it but here's the thing I'm being dead serious something for you so it's a little news note negative is we're just out a little naughty sneaky Lake right here guys fishing this late I don't want to give it's just lake meander Chuck there's like thirty of these lakes within meander Chuck exactly there's you can ask Kevin like the lake that we're going to tomorrow with Hunter and Jacob equally as good yeah there's eleven thousand lakes in the state so in in most of them are like this where they're two to five hundred acres and they all got grass and just like you said to I mean you can go to one lake and it's all largemouth and cabbage and lily pads and then five minutes away it's deep clear sand rock it's mama okay while we're while he's fishing I'm just gonna get all rerigged up I'm a little bit of a mess right now I keep moving away from them no it's okay and just go ahead stay right on him no I'm just saying I haven't I didn't you haven't had a bite no I'm not a couple three casts I'm gonna have to get the the rage bug back out okay say it again soot hazy we're getting a lot of comments people are having issues finding lake meander chuck on the back just keep looking just keep walking it's right next to commander Chuck just kind of Twin Lakes baby here's what I can tell you there's a lot of people fish this lake and look at the bank and they'll know what lake it is yeah that work worked it's it's sneaky like it's not fair to put that much don't put that much pressure on this lake but uh but here's the other side of it here's what I can tell you for anybody at home there's 30 lakes all the little lakes within 30 miles of Kalamazoo because there's one thing that I said coming into this what I learned is I've got five lakes between Kalamazoo and Sturgis okay I got five lakes that are on fire they didn't have good cell service this one had good cell service the lake we taped on yesterday had good cell service that was magic magic what a first hour of live you just regroup I kind of went out a little bit I'm gonna sneak us back where the juice is at a lot of people look at these look at these right here and they just think of them for Texas Reagan they think of them for Trekkie Texas Reagan little rage bugs or you put it on the back of the jig or stuff like that it is equally as potent just on a jig head just on a little ball head and all I do is kind of paint up the tips of them Orange oh gosh I just missed one as soon as I get in the juice was it really yeah he thumped it I got a little ahead of the game there oh my gosh I tried to go out you know a little further and they weren't there so it's trying to wait for you to be read are we right on the right just it's like my boat was sitting right there and it's shallow right there so it's like okay right at the yellow tree I got bigot pretty much right there that's the key my gosh good one whole my gosh yeah five pounder all day won't fatty settle down look how perfect this bass is built look I'll put that please don't that one's pretty right they're just perfect oh my gosh Kevin thank you for driving home for this I texted him on what was it two nights ago I gave them I've only done this one other time we take look how fat that is five plus dang dude we got to be 25 right now we've got to have 25 pounds right now in the first 40 minutes I've only done this one other time that we tape the show on Lake Huron years ago and he texted me find him playing I was struggling to find them we were up north we were up north I had the flu real bad and he was on the road we were getting ready to zona show and I seriously I found the biggest school of smallmouth I had ever found in my life and you sent me like a two-word text we're good that's exactly what I put oh there's the rock right there and two nights ago oh I got the same tag don't get me wrong that little cowboy in the front of the boat right there with the red jacket Vandy cameraman bandy bandy bandy works with the Zona shell a lot and he helps with a lot of searchin but we looked we looked literally looked for days to find the right cell service it's just an illusion that the spot dude right where that rock is that Wes give it up Wes do it thank you [Laughter] BAM I'm not gonna lie I don't want to sound the wrong way I'll never move from this state I will never move from here well nobody's fishing you know this time of year but well now when we were out the other day there was like four boats yeah I can't get a bite in there on this big now that one was you want a meander Chuck I got one I'm thinking about the old jerk and twitch over they got to keep that steel down we don't need trouble hooks why and Weston and said it I'm pretty partial to the old rage bug myself I'm serious I'm blacking out I blacked out yesterday I'm too small amount everything got blurry I'm wrapped up into everything Oh straight up hog snatching hog snatching all the storms coming here go ahead but I got to do a little rigging you need anything oh I got I got what I need look at that poor thing look at that poor thing that's hey that thing needs to go to the showers yeah social media power our search we wouldn't hardly started you it it's gonna rain every bud well we got the unofficial you got 25 at 3/4 pounds KD these at 14 and 3/4 all right well I'm it happens sometimes let's start with Keith well Zeus key he's a novice angler fishing michigan trails he's only got limited poles and tackle and he wants to get your recommendation for the best pole rigs he could set up for fishing around the michigan trails I'm gonna give my two favorites you ready a seven-foot medium action spinning rod and a 7-foot medium have heavy bait cast rod - got a haps - got a house there good enough for KVD patent would say it you better have Franken 107 for spinning rod medium action and I like a seven for I just like a little longer rod but but Dave herb a question for both of you do you feel that the Elite Series events are getting harder to win than the classic more guys more days they're asked if elite an elite story event is part of the win than the classic probably but there's just there's a whole lot more of them that's the problem is there's only one classic I think the classic I look at home or I look at how wild type these guys Rasik man so we they still the most brutal for those guys to mentally mentally to go through I don't think there's as much mental stress on the guys in an elite series as my visually see them at the classic okay John Holt is asking both you and KB how much ba SS has changed the interaction between fans and competitors let's say in the last decade or so do you think we're hit the point where fans on the lake are starting to respect competition I there's more or not yeah for the most part it's it's it's better actually either they understand what we're out there trying to do and they you know most places they pretty much a lot of let us do it but I will say every angler I talked to from the Houston Classic said those were some of the best spectators ever yeah that's Robbie mix Roberson fellow curse Warner who is the better boat driver not not Tommy Biffle no between you two oh I am yeah because he's not fishing in competition he just eases around he's never in a hurry what I do more as and I hate to reference my buddy Hackney again a slink around you know what I mean yeah we're not even to these fish yes mother wants to know if you guys know anything about setting up for a kayak fishing was that josh josh monger yeah don't see I don't I'm gonna get fast master magazine mold no he's a good guy that's good suture these questions you pick travis magno I have helpers who have picked these umbrella rig first angular that fishes southern Michigan like this who has never thrown it proper real rod line set up for a who's that ring who's that from Travis Maag and he wants to know how to properly rig a umbrella rig or the setup rods and reels here's the thing I'll light any kind of light to medium action flip and stick but make sure you've got a beefy reel okay the other side of it is you don't want to go into it with a little medium size reel you want a beefy real big this is a little tip right here you ready use twenty pound fluorocarbon and not braid in Michigan on your umbrella rigs you just get more bites it's one thing I've always said on the zona show you get more bites you get more bites with fluorocarbon kent Lichty - Kevin do you ever ask mark to maybe not tell behind-the-scenes stories about you I got better stories of him than he does of me we'll just leave it at that he does that y'all can't lick me I got a few on him though don't worry all right Tom hands Kevin I've kept a lot of them in the vault bottom in their church what's the best thing to do to be a positive influence to them April is Autism Awareness Month yeah yep so look here I got it I got them I got the wristband right here Dave look here I'll show it this is for my buddy Dave and really anybody who's got the autistic kids Kevin so we want to give him a winner on that question yeah who's that Tom hens Tom hands you are getting a th marine Cong mount and $100 power pole certificate I'm hens yes absolutely so all this month - okay I'm gonna place in $2 a pound for everything I catch I'm counting this as an event so what we catch today two bucks a pound for today you tie your total to 25 all right for the kids zona yeah if you had to choose between the Bears winning the Super Bowl oh we need another classic I've seen four classic victories give me one more SB but the thing is you see Mike Glennon is our quarterback of the bears now so come on Mike Glennon I'm being dead serious I I covered three of the three of the four you've one of the classics it would be a dream to cover the fifth one a dream Bassmaster live babe move on Tommy sooc Ron these fish are pre spawn suits going back to the juice you ready Kevin out yeah huh yeah what not do you tie on four crank baits and jerk baits Palomar just a straight Palomar you have to choose a fishing rod and defend yourself which rod and line type and lure would you use I want to hear what this guy thinks you're gonna take Dom bees like that what it's dealing I don't know what that one was that's more questions from SOOC I liked it though the lightsabre I would choose I'll take my 814 stick light saber yeah go take - I got a new nine-foot cranking rod the bigger the better when you're using it as a weapon with the 10x D I will hurt you got one on this let me just manage Richler yeah hang on let me just see what happens there's a lot of ironing jig there there's a lot of ABB and all these boats look here I'm just I can't get my don't beat me sneak out there without a jerk and twitch down that what an incredible power go search okay you ready switch I'm stealing that hat by the end of the day well I want to get a zonal I've had our budget isn't quite there I'll talk to the friends I've asked maybe we can get some made TV John what are your favorite KVD jerkbait colors for these clear natural Michigan Lake whatever he's got tied on my favorite is my favorites aiyoo aiyoo and crystal shed I throw strobe shad a lot for smallmouth it's got the chartreuse belly yeah that's a dang good one - thanks bro Paul Olson ass while be versatile dictated he just decide that the jerk bait would be his main go to lure or did he discover that through trial and error over the years can I answer that yeah yeah it's hyperness I talked to his father Dick Van Dam about this I'm being dead serious and this was many years ago but his dad said you know we used to think Kevin like had a problem with hyperactivity because he would basically just go out all day long throwing spinner baits crank baits jerk baits it's obviously something that is in his genetic since he was a kid really his dad said he would never slow down I can't sit still well then Kevin Hayden Williams ass all yours end of the day what do you think the secret to tournament bass fishing is and it don't give us a simple one yeah finding and catching big bass that's the simple thank you exactly what they wanted no they're another thing secret man there's it's a bunch of hard work it's in it there's a lot of science that's far from exact man you've seasonal patterns and one of the best things to do is to go with zona to when he's pre scouted I've been says ah there's a little bit of rock here and there might be on this turn well I appreciate that giver I do place 25 pounds off the first you know my biggest thing is what I do is I shake them off and practice there's much I shake them off you know we gotta we gotta start easy yeah they we burned we've hurt their feelings here that I was getting was your math but it's math you Walter pretty close he's a nice no bass angler and he only has a depth finder a GPS on his boat at camp three fish it's better to work how should he approaches tournaments and then he has one of my other other question of what five lures well that was a very large question suited it is let's go with the first one how should he approach tournaments here's what I can tell you good i watch the weather first and foremost man this is no joke I'm dead serious I'm being dead serious whenever we take place on a show or a zone alive all I do for the week before is stare at the weather when I went to bed last night I stared at the weather when I woke up I stared at the weather fish the weather don't here's what I can tell you is don't fish what you found last week no fish the weather towards that you got to think towards the future ready yes sir time will flog do you ever use an underwater camera just to look at your area are you sorry me or for fun are you side image that's all I use mega imaging is unbelievable how's detail to this now it's almost the same thing he always wondered if Astros ever used underwater cameras you've seen him on you know you can put them online and throw them down there look the hummingbird mega image you see is like a camera that you can use in any color water that you can I mean it's like it's like polarized sunglasses in a clear lake while you keep going show over I'm just that's a good Twitter now cut remember hashtag don't alive okay what is your favorite Lake in Michigan for largemouth I like meander Chuck meander Chuck I'm gonna throw out just the lake that I grew up on Kevin comes and hangs out it were you guys are staying I'll

of us that were younger than him I'm considerably younger Kevin's 50 now is all of us that were younger seriously where he was our mentor he was Neil's mentor you know he was all of this whole area if you were it doesn't you could have been older he was so when you met him you kind of standard stomach I hired like everybody else oh come on all right everybody wanted to go out on the Bassmasters

day back in my hand before it's over I'll guarantee you storms coming in guys what a first hour hey I'm dead serious am I on your camera right now I'm dead serious we're gonna have some weather so we might have to take a little longer pause this could win this rain if it gets really bad if it stays like this we're fine but we're getting near the juice that first pot was just how I'm not gonna lie that first pots gonna be hard when you catch 25 pounds off of I want to ask this one who's last question last question who's considered the best-dressed Pro and the elites among the elites best dress Pro bigan no Best Dressed I gotta tell you this sucker gonna get eight if he hangs around that school best dressed on the elites well that's a toughy it's got to be Clift crochet I'll be honest with you when he won angler of the year I think Aaron was one of the best-dressed I have ever seen I really do was he that was the one time that he wasn't barefoot we're going to Brighton sure watching them up with others we're working on it thank you what a first hour man are you kidding me ours today [Music] history of my life you know help you do settle down so look how perfect this asset builders how perfect that thing felt just perfect so noir is brought to you by Ram [Music] Sbarro's [Music] and by striking the horses soda hell KVD time to get jacket I love getting Kevin slightly out of his world he lives in and I do everything I can every single thing I can to try to to crack the armor whether it's singing them a song I do that to him off camera all day long Peters lovers want to love he train don't want to do his whole spell and I and III honestly know how much he loves it he loves my singing sing it for me give it to me good we're not catching him you think I want to put myself down just sing it though I mean but I want it from the gut and I'm dead horse down man we're kickin boom I'm the only person that could bring the number-one angler down to that level hey Kevin after that first hour I know how much you love my singing especially when really no cabbage clump when we're pontoon then together would you mind if I oh here look here the cabbage look here would you have a cabbage would you mind if I graced you with the gift of song right now listen let's hear it remember what you did here - who'd you a long long time ago he said KB you did let me tell you song fine don't never leave fish - fine movies you've never leaving fish to find the fish I've heard that no and it never gets old I know I know it Kevin if people are just joining us here on xone alive if you did not see that first hour you messed up that was world class zone alive presented by a hummingbird gang here's what I can tell if you're just tuning into this that was possibly one of the most I have taped for 12 years that could have been the most incredible 55 minutes I've ever seen rolling with my buddy Wes Miller I'm not kidding that's straight-up hog snatching right there III little we went to break this is no joke if you if you're just tuning in to this something happened here something happened here the first hour that I I've seen a lot of stuff in Michigan I've seen a lot of Kevin's that first hour was in cred did bolt that's insanity seriously Falcon Lake I mean we may not have ten pounders but man there's something [ __ ] man see what we're doing we're building as we're going along I've got my auto chart on when we're graphing this whole thing and this is the shallow water that we're throwing up on and it gets deep and there's gonna be a point that's gonna count that we just you see that point right there the auto chart at that point there's more stuff gonna happen when we make our way down to that we're easing into it though I wanted to idle down during the commercial break oh that's a cold rain yeah there's a cold rain okay let's just cut you know here's what I can tell you you could literally re rack from 8:02 Kevin caught - I lost one I caught a sweet stick that I thought to the boat and then we went down about sorry about that but here go ahead we went down about 70 yards and the fish Lords started shining I mean giant and we're not even close to done I like the one to pop Jackson Nicoll oh so you guys are just too good studying boys locked up big Oh cabbage cabbage sitting up there in the dorm where it's nice and warm you got class a little bit don't skip class it's gonna be good but we'll get you a copy real quick I gotta tell a story I got to tell a story I'm here we uh careful over there ek Kevin pull just a hair yeah the so what I was saying this morning is really what I've learned about doing this live thing is it's more stressful than shooting a regular zone a show for the simple fact that number one you're live and that's a little bit scary in itself but number two you wait for hours one of the a lot can come out of your mouth and for hours the other side of it is what I really learned I guess more so this week than anything was a lot of the lakes that I found that were really really really really good fish and I was telling Davie height this he said man have you found a couple good lakes to do it on I said you know I found some really good lakes but they got horrible cell service and I said then I found some lakes with really really good cell service that the lakes sucked and and he said maybe that's a population thing which was interesting to hear that but this is a true story last Sunday when Toledo band it was that would have been the final day at Toledo band when Murray won a pretty special day by the way very special day one of the best dudes on planet Earth like ever my kids and I went we were scouting Lakes getting ready and and my kids and I are taping tomorrow and Saturday and we found a lake just like this like it's happening yep kevin has been to that lake it's it is happening and my boys saw me pull my phone out to do a to do a cell test when it whenever we would start catching I might start checking cell service and one of my twins looked at me and he's like we were getting a lot of bites big ones and one of my kids said oh please don't breathe they didn't want to take care here please don't bring uncle Kevin here to do live before we shoot no right luckily luckily there was zero all worked out yeah I do I want to cut it yeah sure I will Wes I will again for everybody at home we're gonna be doing social media social media power our again we've got two big prizes left one of them the next prize were given away or it could be Kevin if Kevin here's the right question he could give away the grand prize that he'll extend Megan imaging baddest unit he can literally call the winner whenever you walk it's your show dude I'll let you go no no no no this is your show cowboy oh you want you know I'm gonna go shower chair okay it's just just to see with all this clouds and stuff you know Donnell digging digging digging maybe I should stay out on the break no pipe smaller is it a pie I think that was it looked long and oh no it's the best oh yeah see I see the that's a pretty good one was it we're getting near that point right yeah we're getting new yesterday when we taped when we taped yesterday this is really interesting we caught we uh we caught a mixed bag yesterday really nice one smallmouth and largemouth and I was you can take it to a nice cool dude it's cool I was fighting one yesterday this time of year this time of year in Michigan especially small bluegill small bluegill got it yeah I'm gonna put that jerk bait down oh I'm gonna drop a waypoint I don't know how big this one is I got something going here beggin I don't know man I don't know if it's a bass yeah mine is oh I won't get rid of this one real quick look a there's a good so check it out yesterday look yesterday the so we were catching a mixed bag hey uncle Kevin would you mind holding this on this Waypoint for a couple minutes what do you want to do I don't care you want me to kind of hang out sorry about the weather gang but thank you for hanging with us through this we're kind of got challenges with the weather this time of year one of the things that I always talk about and Kevin Kevin's done a million articles with lowest out on this is the dynamic of of small bluegill and small perch and and I always talk about this in a lot of my seminars I always talk about this in a lot of my seminars is the number one thing you know somebody asked about tournaments and stuff fishing up here but I don't care I don't care where you're at on planet Earth Oh getting bigger yeah I would say it's a good no not a giant the first thing that I look for the first thing I look for on all these lakes is where the pan fishermen are at so where are the bluegill fishermen that's where the person that's a big woman get up yeah I'll get them look at the fatty and it looks like a Clear Lake bass right there there's one for skeet Reese look up just rotting just dropping Shimano's like bombs that's pretty good one that's a good one it's not a five but that's a dang sure four plus God look at how pretty that fish is the belly what a day it's some straight-up snatching Wes gets all the love back there we're gonna bring it over here way to go buddy Eric and that's a chub right there okay hey zona can I go back to the Waypoint please do I know what I know we're eating you're with the wind right now that wind's coming out of the east dang I'm not lying some apply would have been based O'Hara would have been would have beat us to a frenzy no wrong so what I was saying was is one of the major things and I'm dead serious about this what we all have a tendency to do when we're on a lake is you kind of snoop around you look around and you look we're bass boats are at and I always tell my kids right don't look at other bass fishermen 99% chance they're looking at you to just hunt we're the pan fishermen are at like the lake that we're going to tomorrow we're there's like five there's gonna be oh my gosh what is happening today I got him the old jerk and twitch we ain't even to the point when we ease on down that off the break right here and I started seeing those pods of the bluegill and we've been working down this you know just kind of easing down I mean they're solid yeah here oh yeah oh yeah right there those are out up on top of the flat - hey uncle Kevin I just want to see if one would lick a structure - yo quick I'd throw the swimmer out there the way they're coming up and eating the jerk you gotta bet you get a bite there oh you're kidding me baby wow this has been like the most incredible hour and 20 minutes I'm I can't believe he's there he'd get eight and one of the things that we'll do we'll do it in a in the third hour I just want to show I want to show on the helix I want to show what that cabbage wall looks like that these fish are holding on just so before the end of the day we show you exactly kind of what we were what we're hunting and it's not what I'm hunting on this lake it's what I'm hunting on every one of these lakes I fished for the last two weeks yeah whether it's milfoil or cabbage and that mega imaging shows it to Meghan yeah way up there way up there Kevin oh my gosh oh my gosh that that just for a fly oh gosh oh boy really oh my god sighs that bass look at the size of that bass I don't know what to do man that makes huge yeah its enormous Oh one's got my jig oh my god man is a monster that is huge it's huge it's huge that's a step that's a door of a concourse launch that is oh my gosh oh my gosh you've got to be kidding I will mess this up dude just grab by the belly well King Kong show dude Wow thirty pound bag today Wow huh look at that here hang on let me think I think my hood off we got to get us this that's a social media that's awesome oh my gosh Wow Gunnar's no bass that's a ding feel them tell me what that way six that's a six I was gonna say six and three-quarter hear them go that's so awesome Wow you were fighting my jig went through I got to go back to the waypoint area and say dude you're out of ice you're on my way point I practice there bro when that one bit is like in I don't I don't know what to say man I don't know what to say we're not even to the point that's that's where the magic that's where the gooey rich madness is at is right there but you see let me show you one thing right here let me show you right here where we're at all of these you see these little turns in this mapping all these little inventions corner every little corner every single little corner on here is where these fish are oh yeah sure oops go back up just a little bit alright here let me show you real quick as we're going down as we're going down this break it's not a straight it's not a straight but break as far the drop off straight but as far as re by that Kevin as far as the cabbage goes let me show you something every one of these waypoints like right here let me show you you see that Waypoint it's on a corner that Waypoint it's on a corner and as I'm doing that you were doing it the other day I was doing that Auto chart live here and what was funny was after we dropped all those waypoints every Waypoint was on a corner of the mapping anywhere there's a bend in a corner and what you'll have there is a turn in that cabbage where that cabbage turns like the stuff that I'm fishing tomorrow on a lake about 20 miles from here everything that I'll be fishing is a turn in grass regular I mean it's ten feet it's a ten feet cut in it right it's not dramatic subtle hey bud dude that's a jackhammer I don't know we got thirty but we got green far front we ain't far from thirty I can tell you that we're approaching the biggest bag that I've ever caught in the state of Michigan yeah we will catch the biggest bag by the end of the day by the end of the day wow wow wow wow you were fighting that fish and I pulled lift up on my jig my jigs on was he up was yeah pop I don't care I've kissed Kevin more than once bud and if you don't mind me saying kevin has given me a kiss it's right there okay based on where I'm at and holy I got a loop wait I got too much line on my reel I texted them are we good yeah no you did questions hashtag zone alive questions we've got futures bassmaster calm social media power our how long Wes 5 in 5 in 5 I don't know like I don't know what we we can do the look at the mess in this boat 15 minutes 15 minutes 15 minutes you know those are impressive very impressive you know they're big in the fall but they're they just they must continue just eat all winner but I'll tell you what's really strange because that seriously that's very strange this lake and where we're going tomorrow on the next data tape and that stuff you don't see many small ones this time of year in that weird but in the summer you do yeah Oh you're right in the again I'm gonna say if you've just joined us here I'm gonna live it's been over 90 minutes of complete insanity today oh and I was so depressed that we weren't going to Lake where I was so depressed Kevin do what what I haven't been over there this early he's never been on st. Clair this early and a bunch of my buddies are oh I'm talking about dead what's this backwards cat I'd throw right there though for about the last for about the last 10 years and I've never hit it right for taping cuz we were gonna tape regulars ona shows there this week but there is a deal that goes on at st. Claire that I told Kevin I said it's a phenomenon there's a cranking deal that happens there early and God knows I love to create a smallmouth calm and it would just it wasn't right the weather wasn't right but I thought you know and I did I had so much anxiety because I knew that we'd have where we were gonna catch him at st. Claire I knew we were gonna have really good cell service and I called some of my buddies up there I said man has a water color with in there like who you're playing with fire man you're playing with fire especially it's supposed to blow blow out of the East Bay and whenever that jerk meets awesome but I'm going to tell you if you want to catch the mega Giants that's the way to do it this time that's a big and gotta be no good one big in starting to black out again at ek and my buddies my buddies that live up by Saint Claire they're like you know you might knock their lights out but the problem was you know I talked to Mike McKenna's who runs Bassmaster Live and Michael Middleton who's running this show right now and there I told both of them I said man that winds gonna that winds gonna blow from the east and I think we're I think we're shot down on st. Claire and both of them were like oh yeah you know and I went through mass depression for the better side of like three or four days just cuz I wanted I want it all that had never been there well st. Claire's one of those lakes we go to on the tour you know on the elite series we're going there later this year and just to show them it's so different oh God hooked up it's so awesome when you hit that when you jerk that jerk rate and you hit it the next time oh look it here I mean full-blown multi-species event those gosh dang you put that in that Riesling grease right there from my buddy Scott rook it's a funny what-what-what when Kevin was talking about right there is you know a lot of the Elite Series events that we've covered there whether it's when Faircloth Wan you know Chris Lane one you know it's a lot of kind of drop shoddy shoddy stuff but oh oh my god one that's a big and you think I got I'm not gonna lie though I got to give credit where credit's due you presence of praise be put me on that jig color skirt that peanut-butter-and-jelly structure jig he caught him he mauled him that color jig right there he mauled him at Cayuga and he's like when you got those Clearwater lakes that you fish up north when you got those Clearwater lakes that have a dark bottom this water is actually really really really you got a net to see that in this cold water you a lot of times it's best to have something but without that with that subtle action like that just don't have a rage craw in there I got a KVD chunk on there it doesn't have as much action just a shimmy to it you know you even like where I caught those really big ones right there west on that rage bug that rage bug doesn't have it doesn't have it doesn't throw a lot of water but what I was saying about st. clair was it what what's good what goes on up there and a lot a lot of y'all that are watching this have been up there in April and the April kind of deal those fish gets so tremendous that like they get so shallow like 5 to 7 foot of water my gosh I want to cast that jig you making me want to put that jig in my hand I blocked out again they notice he did not give me a PB&J he gave me a need a little more to the you're right in the Juke you're right in the jig juice right there got a fun morning awful KBD my kids better be doing doing their SATs and not watching this boys you got 20 minutes till class do not skip class that's right stay in school it's and it's Thursday night in college make sure you today but I tried to pull best day out of the year I'm gonna I'm gonna let him

Nicholas in the outdoor show oh my goodness well what was weird was they they had the pick if they wanted to go to to Spring Break at the classic or to Brian Robinson's charity event now my boys are big fantasy football players and have won a couple championships with your auction winner that bought your auction trip Adrian Peterson and well it was a all for charity but the weather was just it was horrible it was horrible it was horrible I'm lost roll over here to the left and I'm gonna jerk my old jerk and twitch there be blood in the jig zone seriously good like I know I'm 1 get Pierce I know I'm gonna get pierced I could hear the wind of that jerk bait going by my ear yeah yeah oh dude oh don't worry I won't hit you yeah until 3 trebles take three troubles go up the side of my head our buddy underdog I got him yeah a few years back I've had some rough go of it with trebles in recent you know the talita ban last year just last week even I got one you stuck your head what when you say I thought when you stuck your hand Toledo Bend you go alright I got a problem I got a big problem it was don't get me wrong but I'm not gonna lie that makes for delicious bass master that had to be a pretty highly watched video piece throughout the season highlight I'm gonna ease around right it's only 9:40 I ask you gang I'm being dead serious if I can ask you it we're not even to a lot of the we got out some more spots come just hang with us today well we still got grand prizes I mean I'm gonna give away like just bass mafia one of everything do you hear that one of everything it's like yeah five minutes till social media power our tsuge you high and tight there it is the Durkin twitch is in the zone I'm up you know it cool hashtag zona live a bunch hashtag hammer time slot smashing oh it's bandy keep it tight Kamali what I'd like to do I like we play I'd like to replay without any voice so I'd like to replace some of them flurries here I mean I think I'm gonna keep easing on and I'll tell you it's been like a running shoot you know what I mean like jerkbait jig like we've been a team like you know learned that we're an hour and forty minutes and right now and we got to get to all-time stringer for a Michigan I'm up for it I'm up for it biggest stringer I've ever caught in Michigan was 20 Oh getting I'm talking about dadgum shown up locked jack is the big no nope no no I'm telling you about we'll do it after this next commercial break here in about 70 yards house hooks there something are you here my finger punched it right through suit you got some good questions lined up though they're rolling in you know it you ready we ready you know what since we're ready for it ahead rock and Fire old friend some from Twitter Josh man he sh if you only could throw one style of lure what would it be I know what your answer is I'm gonna answer his and he hands her mind there you go he is gonna throw a jig a jig and a jig I throw a this is no joke this is hey I'm being dead serious Kevin actually knows this if you ever when the wheels come off in a regular zone to show Wes you know this we start throwing jigs one shot one year I had like five jig shows anyway it would be a strategy what I'm throwing Kevin what yours would be what you're throwing dr. crankenstein know I'd be a great Baker so yeah because you can cover every zone and it's efficient yeah I love every I mean I love a jerkbait don't get me wrong when the water is clear [ __ ] the crankbait okay Adam Stuckey ass if you could catch one world record bass which would it be large my smallmouth or spot oh that's why Adam stuck Adam Stuckey I like you Adam Oh might be smallmouth man I'd want to catch a largemouth it's the way I want to catch I want to catch a 22 12 now I'd like to catch 12 pound smallmouth hands down and I like I'd like to catch a 12 pound smallmouth a 12 pound largemouth and a 12 pound spot all in the same day yeah I'm one castile umbrella that'd be pretty good Laura Schultz do you work your jerkbait differently depending on water temperature I do I'm working it faster right now than I normally would but we've got a day where they're real aggressive with this cloud cover and it's you know the water is 49 degrees so the colder the water the slower and the longer the warmer the water the faster I go yeah all right crazy yeah yep was having craziest thing ever happening out on the road craziest thing craziest oh my god hang on I thought he was blinded it home did it well I showed up to a tournament at Little Rock one time with two tires two tires gone oh you had the rims that's pretty close yeah how far did you drive on that drive five miles would not have been a rubber on that [Laughter] this is a family show so I have to watch where I'm going you gotta go please - you gotta go back to the slim number slim no this is so much better I was on the road got this in family show I was on the road and I got to my hotel flight got canceled got to my hotel and the Bears game was on at nine o'clock is Monday Night Football okay we're Thursday night one of the and I got to the front desk I literally I said you just let me sign it give me my key kickoff kickoff starting I walked in the room and somebody must have been on their honeymoon and I ran out of the room and I ran down the front desk and I said ma'am I'm not in that room she said no you are in that room that is your room I said ma'am I'm not in that room and she looked at me and she goes oh sorry true story oh yeah true story Brian Scott wants to know how much pre-fishing should you do before a tournament what's about the right amount that's different for everybody I read just rarely ever get to pre fish you know for the regular elite events we basically get two and a half days and you know even on a big body of water most the times that's more than I really need but everybody style is a little bit different mine's 30 to 40 days consistent they like Jacob wheeler get their free fish two weeks before mines daylight to dark thirty to forty days yeah all right here's a good one from J M rebels what is the one thing that people who fish could do to help out the bass population serious question hang on good one say that again now what what is the one thing people people could do - I'll pop the bass population just fast anglers let big uns go man that fish right there and bigger look man I have no problem I have no problem that fish had a bluegill in its throat I have no problem whatsoever with people harvesting bass just let big uns go like that fishing bigger you don't want to eat that that's my opinion well they're the fish we're catching here especially man they're they're 1215 years old or older it's not a renewable resource man if you're gonna if you're gonna keep some keep that those fish that are at the minimum size limit they ain't to eat best anyways suit you still with us bro yeah you ready Doug Oswald okay Bee Gees well I guess started off kvt best hockey player ever why and why Wayne Gretzky oh come on man my buddy Patrick he played 12 in the NHL but no Bickle's a man and then he scored a goal I'm dead you know that was sweet and he's a bass nut exactly alright co-anglers what's the best tip you could give a co-anchor oh my god be a better co-angler I got a mess here the biggest thing about I got something I don't like that question you know fishers have anymore Kevin but know the biggest thing you know and I used to tell my co-anglers this all the time is you know watch the guy in the front of the boat and see how efficient he is you know you do not want to go down the bank flipping a hack-attack jig behind Greg Hackney if he's flipping bushes or stumps you know so you got a you got to watch what they're doing and in a situation like that you got to fish a different zone or you got to use a bait that that's going to fish the water column a little bit differently like in a situation like this you know if I'm going down through here and I'm jerking them catching my jerkbait do you want to follow it up with a different you're some kind of different presentation it's not right big suit can i inflect on that interject right there are you better oh don't start and I you know we've taught you we talked about this Sanders and when we've done up best master live is don't start grabbing lure and then lure and then lure and then lure and then then it looks like at the end of the day your entire tackle boxes when things start going wrong or you're not catching them put your most confident bait on earth in your hand and live with what your confidence what I can tell you if you look at guys that win Elite Series tournaments Kevin always ranks merrily the string is doing their fastball their specialty when things are not happening as a co-angler put your most confident lure in your hand current events here Logan Archibald wants to know what's the way of your biggest five fish in Michigan - no I don't know my biggest five I've caught in Michigan were between 28 and 29 pounds and I'm telling you yeah it's got scared right now yeah you do we got it scared what was that those were small amount that was at Lake Huron Josh Schneider wants to know you're having before so five favorite nicknames for a big bass I'll give up my cheese I get my - you get what you want I like devil slouch and I like Darva Conger wasn't my tooth trench pan does a gotta have I like that you got to have the trip oh there oh god no that wasn't getting up to some good Nasir that was a brick wall when it hit really all right well you're getting on a lake like today you haven't seen in a while would are the keys you're looking for in the structure and structure Kevin go like today on these lakes this young year the biggest the biggest thing is is you want to find structure that fits the seasonal pattern and you know right now you can see we're way off the bank this is a big flat between here and the shore and we're fishing the edges you know the outside edge and it's it's early pre spawn so they're gonna be on these these vertical breaks outside of these large spawning flats so you know in the in the spawn they're gonna be all up there on this Michelle so you want to fish the areas on the map that fit the seasonal pattern for that time of the year more than anything else that's that's what I do every place I go on the elite series is look for areas that that fit the seasonal pattern that's you know that's why last week when we're at Toledo Bend I wasn't out there way offshore deep cranking because it's not the right see it's it's type of weeks earlier than last year yep we're we're just too early can I get something how we caught him yesterday you ready to I'm being dead serious get behind your wheel an idol and Idol and Idol break lines okay look for little contour shifts the like yesterday the lake we fished on is incredibly pressured and when you find small irregularities along a break line this time of year reef massive lenses especially oh we're makes a little indention along a break okay just it is as much as we all want to go out and start fishing as much as we all want to go out and start casting stuff like that I live behind that steering wheel I live behind that steering wheel and I stare at my graph well a BD yep Bruce track what is your favorite lake in the country to fish one favorite leg Lindsey Lake st. Clair hands down st. you to let him undercooked Matthew Girton in his hey could KVD have thrown a TD pass at Calvin Johnson Wow anybody could've thrown it stood right beside him use a monster okay free monster I see you guys hey you know what's a real bizarre about Calvin Johnson real quick Kevin got me passes to to one of the practices is how much Calvin Johnson would make professional defensive backs look like children little guys know like when they would when when starters would try to cover him during practice that were on the same team they look like kids I got text with Dave Mercer that he's matching you guys on autism awareness that's my boy Dave right there that's my guy that's my guy he can't help could K be the explain how his equipment techniques posture etc allow him to jerk and crank so aggressively for such a long time well I'm going to tell you the biggest thing with a jerkbait is is having the right equipment and you you want to physically have your body it's set in position so you're not having to overwork yourself so if you're pulling off we're straight to the side it really works your arm a lot harder if I tried to jerk down like this so you know out of a boat like this z21 it's it's off the water you can't have too long a rod in the handle or in the tip so you know I use like a 610 medium heavy action so it's got a lot of it's got a lot of backbone when I snap it it makes that bait jump but that handle doesn't hit me in the chest here so it physically makes it easy question from mark Z from Sturgis given your age how many good jerk baiting years do you have left in you he's like an old battle-tested warhorse like hey dude I would say so during the classic we're doing classic live Mercer and Tommy and Davey and we got out on him and he was by the dam he started down by the dam then we covered him all three days and he threw a jerk bait 99% of the time if you think about that think about that that is brutal man bleeped Oh Justin Kimmel could zona compete on the Elite Series and win one of those big blue trophies no no no no no Wes no I know baby Dee know your opinion on that I take second I would tell you right now he'd probably be no he'd probably be right up there he's finished second forever and is in his Triple A level career you know I looked up his career stats he's had some good finishes I don't have what it takes mentally and then 164 so close last question is Maradona from Thomas Hardwick yes sir what was that dye you put on your rage bug next question please [Laughter] Roberto Kenny what's the martial arts scheduled for spring Oh always far as my Bassmaster Live being in studio I have well actually what's your guys next tournament know where captain Jackson Jax Arnett oh yeah Ross Barnett yeah I have an extremely important African safari hunt I'm on that week I drew a permit so I'm not gonna be there at the next one III don't think I'm gonna be back actually till the smallmouth tournaments I think when we get up to st.

Clair yeah remodeling the kitchen he and Cherie remodeled their entire kitchen what felt like the entire show to be honest question for mark Z in Sturgis how are you getting by not talking to Sheree this morning so far Kevin it's good she's she handles things on their own I don't have to worry about this I can just straight up and go hog snatching now we've got officially two more two more social media power hours looks like the Front's kind of getting out of here cuz the tempest has dropped dramatically since this morning I mean it's gotten it's gotten cold I looked at the radar there and it's it's still coming oh is it yeah I meant no the storm was just on its way it suits like that one they're having a time over there tima suit there's grass there so it looks like we're still gonna have to deal with some weather here pretty big time it's gonna rain it's gonna continue to rain but I don't think it's much more than this hopefully I'll tell you I woke up this morning and before that storm before that storm got over Lake Michigan before that storm got over Lake Michigan it was all red when it was in Wisconsin it was there's the color at Kevin's rain suit and I was like oh no we're gonna have to pull the we're gonna have to pull the cord on this thing before it's even before we even went live this morning yeah I don't have tomorrow I mean I got my brother's promotion right yeah if you're in the Kalamazoo area the next few days that's a pretty good place to be Big Show D in our sports biggest show of the year always Easter weekend over here Skeets coming he's flying today and I'm thinking the weekend off Brad Knight from the FLW right on David Fritz how about that all right school cranker ah default Depot Jonathan Van Damme mark zona not I'll be there next year though well you did the other weekend yeah I did a couple weeks ago you got the whole crew up you'd be taping you're like taping like a and I understand why this week holy mackerel yeah it's gonna get really good bitin I'm gonna start moving again till we hit one don't you think yeah yeah it's kind of the one tune yeah smack down and we're gonna do gang is what we'll do is we'll come down here a little more about another 20 minutes and then we're gonna go back up there were the that spots probably reloaded a little bit that I'm serious that was two hours of some of the craziest stuff I've seen in this state I was insane that was really pretty special cabbage cabbage walls hey cuz I'm not slow down just a little yeah we're gonna go past that that that next mark and then let's let's both are making our way back one no it's just that good hard stuff okay I gotta get my cello our bait on I mean it's not that shallow we're we're catching them but they'll come up and bite that jerk bait over that grass a lot better you can't fish it through it deep one is just these questions hashtags all alive we'll have to more power hours seriously hit it's getting cold you can take a rest once which were there okay tell you what we're gonna do cameraman West said we're gonna get warmed up here a little bit and take a look at some of that action from this morning I started out with a stick yes Kevin talk about what happened that after the first two fish catches that you had I saw one of the best locked up hooked up hogs that turned into a stick it I caught some cabbage hey explain explain to people at home like when they say you got to get one like I thought when they really started bite yeah one even even when the water is cold like this if you once you activate that get that school stirred you know and when the waters gotta mean that Hydra wave is one of my key ways to do that but when it's cold like this in this clear water they it's visual they see it because you can't get that close to them they see it going on it may get fired up history of my life and and what's what what's weird about that first hour is there what's weird about that first hour was there wasn't there wasn't one big one biting I mean all 70% of what bit it was big was it was big and I'm not lying I thought maybe we'd come here today and catch a dozen you know three to four pounders I had no premonition of that I had no clue that was gonna go down and really if you're just tuning in the the main baits were a structure jig the KVD trailer and a rage bottle I mean that's what did the predominant amount of damp don't but hit the other side is will also show you the Narvik mega solange Kevin caught on a jerkbait 30 minutes ago huge one and I and I'll tell you it seriously it's miserable out it's miserable it's cold cameraman wes is it miserable it his misery all cold it's cold that but the next really the next three days four days in the state of Michigan are going to be they're gonna be incredible bass fishing like Sunday Easter Sunday Happy Easter Bach Bach is gonna be one of the best fishing days of the entire year on Sunday coming off of that Saturday nights supposed to be really really really warm that's gonna be incredible and I'll tell you what we'll do is we'll go about another ten minutes and then we're gonna idle our way back up to the the nectar but I'm gonna I want to run that graph and show you you guys at home what this looks like on a graph you see that cabbage oh my gosh I seriously did during that scrape I started a blackout how many questions you think I'm gonna get a DNI are tomorrow morning yeah right there by 7:00 hour at 9:30 in the morning better tell Kenny to reorder the the rage bugs and the bluegill color jerkbaits again we're given a grand prize they're not we do have we can't tell anybody kevin has one random one kind of thought I've got one one question that really kind of struck me as a really good question so when the helix den with mega imaging bluegill on the grass bluegill on the graph blue gills blue gills on the graph when you got bluegill outside that cabbage just to kind of give you a uh give you a little bit of a rundown zona live in the next couple months I think we're gonna have in about a month we're talking to a young pistolero Jordan Lee Jolie if he can lay down his duffel bag full of loot throw some to you yeah about that classic that was pretty incredible so we I just you know we just fished at Toledo Bend and then we had a media event there afterwards and Jordan and Matt were there swindle was there and Scroggins you know and stuff and you know I've been to a bunch of those media events before yeah with Joe yeah and he's in a different spot right now i think i think his eyeballs are he's still explaining that explain that well it you know he is just a normal college kid doing what he wants it loves to do and he likes to fish man he's a fisherman and he doesn't want to have to deal with or he didn't want you do but you don't I mean you just get his getting called all the time from LA different media people from all over that he never would have thought about before so a whole lot more people know who Jordan Lee is now after that final day that he had there right I can't wait to see the show myself you know cuz it didn't happen on live you know all right I gotta throw something to them to our friends at home real quick I got throw in a little KVD story at that classic and I did they actually did they on basket master DICOM I did a video about this it was after the day one weigh-in we do we do postgame interviews with the leaders and Kevin came in and Davy was sitting there Mercer was onstage Davy was set Harold it man and and Tommy was sitting there and Kevin goes boy this is gonna take a lot of twists and turns by the end of this tournament and I kind of looked at them and now your leaders at the time were so who do we have a cliff crochet Clifford perch a l'heure Kevin goes you'll never see the winner coming in this tournament and I kind of looked at he goes none of you got somebody he goes somebody's gonna charge from the back of the pack and none of you will see him coming on the final day go oh I'm talking My Luck top Jack that's a good one I think it I think it's old big melon slump maybe it's foul hooked melon slouch what is it what is it it's a mackerel it's a minute it's a natural no people thank you mr. pike he didn't even Nick my line Oh took the safety off it's mighty grassy right and he said that and Kevin said that and walked out of the room and Davy was sitting there and Tommy was there and I was like we'll have a camera on one of the top five who's gonna win this thing and it was spot on it was a fish Conroe it's not a lake that has a huge population but it's got some great big ones and and I'm actually I'm really surprised that Jordan was the only one that really had one of those kind of days you know what was strange about it though I'll tell you what was was really strange about that was all you guys said all you guys said if somebody got you know that offshore bike going by the end of it that they would win and and granted it wasn't way offshore you know he was only fishing you know five to twelve really twelve feet of water but just off the bank oh yeah but would you know in the end a lot of people said that that that area up up the lake wouldn't hold up and it was right you know Kennedy was the one that was really closest to making that happen on the last day you know Aylor was just as weird as weird watching that scratching and claws scratching and clawed you know where everything he set the hook on at least 50% of what he set the hook on he'd catch three to four pounders the first two days and they just completely disappeared into the last day what shocked me more than anything was the last day I expected the shad spawn deal you know Edwin was catching him that way and and that's that's what I ran out and did and it was just it disappeared man what happened to Edwin on the last day he no I mean he was catching 20 pounds and yeah and nothing on two minute warning we're gonna idle okay buddy get up there back to the nectar you know what I mean whoo see if we can't just lock up a few more times locked up no Kevin step yeah everybody's gonna have the flu at the end of this day tops here Creek yes any more weight points are on this oh we got a cluster yeah let's not even worry about those down there though let's uh you sure yeah I'm gonna idle I want to I want to get west behind me and we'll lock well I just want to show that what that break looks like on down imaging hey SOOC something I'd like to do real quick on hashtag zone alive yeah I'd like some recommendations besides now I am doing I'm doing a solo live with Joe Lee and one with that fellow from New Jersey I can le this year is some recommendations of lakes and other guests for the future so my client gets an event is he like yeah I can wire right there or now I don't have to do that all right we idolan can't stand it uh no sir whoa look at that we're here I want to thank everybody I want to thank everybody that's joined us today this has been a special special magical couple hours so far I've had a lot of fun we're gonna do I'm still charting on this but what I'm going to do is make imaging you got to show the mega imaging hang out I'll get it go ahead I got to get my cast in I'm gonna do oh my god it was awesome we go scruff that's it there it is that's the magic right there it's all real real real thick cabbage that's the magic right that is the magic and what will happen is I'm gonna go straight out here sorry with that jerk bait you got to have a lot of sugar but see see work it's real real clean and then also you'll get and I'll tell you what what's interesting is when we caught all those bass today you see that cabbage right there when we caught those vas was a clean area in that cabbage rocki rocki it was just a real real clean patch in that grass you'll get a real clean bottom yeah and the other day my buddy and I idled this whole thing you could tell exactly were those real real thick beds a cabbage were yeah let's see we didn't get many bytes right through that hey cuz there's not there we go there we go look like look like oh ho ho mm-hmm that's what you're hunting for where it's next to a clean area let's see how it stops right there that's what they're I'm that's it but like yesterday what's compared to what we're doing here today well that's a real thick deal yesterday all we did did this all day long deeper though we were in like 20 to 45 yesterday on a much clearer Lake and alive like I said the lake that we were on yesterday tons of pressure tons of pressure but we were fishing we were looking for little isolated pieces of wood and you find one little isolated piece of wood and you'd catch two or three big largemouth or small mouths on it from from 20 to 35 food group but I'll do this I'll do this literally I'll do this more than I'm just texting all right I was just wondering what you're doing all day long all day long all day all day somebody I mean yeah I don't keep I'm gonna keep working Chevy's building a new gazebo while back this trip Oh remodeling my garage are you really yeah hey you sent up my other glove I'm gonna but my hands at least it's cold well one of the questions one of the questions that we had from look at there oh my goodness bluegill pawed me go paw you just speed it up a little bit I like catching them I don't like um he's a talk I'd say fifty percent of my time fifty percent of my time bass fishing let's go left is doing this all day long anacs gets frustrating yeah let's go Robin trying to speed him all right we're going look at the Sun uncle Wes hey hold up game [Music] good [Music] [Music] I'm gonna roll around that side [Music] [Music] [Music] okay this is hey dude this is real steep okay I know I like it great when we kind of started we started the show on in this stretch Kevin let's drop the clutch on it hey we got a catch 30 we're gonna I want some new meat big

right from the companies and at the end we're gonna give away a helix 10 mega imaging I'm telling you the exactly that unit that we were just using will give more imaging is something that's been huge for me but this this new mega imaging is absolutely I mean it's stunning it's it's so it's such an improvement it really is it's crazy I caught a stick to start I mean of goods and I fought it all the way at the boat it's like the stick would ride high and then it was like I thought I literally almost said during the fight I just felt a big head shake 15 minutes still so she would be minutes power social media power 15 manage self questions so that you nailed that it's a real steep break real steep break what they call the ultimate transition they ought to be one on that I invited Kevin over

that are already here all right we'll dig those up thanks ooch I'll tell you what's what's cool is could be is yeah cameraman Wes could attest to this is how hard the bites are that we're getting today how hard these bites are I mean the way they were hitting that jig yesterday those fish I'll show you exactly what I caught him on yesterday the exact thing exact date every one of them I caught it yesterday I caught on that one right there smallmouth and largemouth great big ones um you throw it out you throw that bait out yesterday and you'd sit there and you sit there and you'd get it down on the bottom and you basically just pulse your rod and move it about an inch at a time an inch at a time an inch at a time and all would do is that what I said was the the bike yesterday felt like where you kind of stretch a rubber band where you're you would you know how you kind of check your rod and then you just load up on them it's about rage bug time yeah yeah what's funny is a comma on a KVD swimmer yesterday a rage swimmer and you throw we have been out there looking around and stuff like a did you throw a tube out there never get a bite never catch one that I couldn't understand that they like that slow wag this time of year that's that that swimmer just because you weren't fishing it fast at all guarantee you had to be you had to be dragged it was fairly painful dragging it I know that I probably should not be jerking this jerk bait here in just a minute based on what I saw a few minutes ago I've got a list of places all right what do you got su CH Mille Lacs imagine that Oh actually talked about doing one email fight and I talked about doing one yet this year I'm not scared to knock out like eight to ten zone with Dave Mercer how am I going to Simcoe o catch a 7s

going to have a big old chunk of pork on the back of bo Hogg frog oh my gosh good old baked flippin a bacon okay okay not to change the subject but real quick yeah best meal you and I have ever had together oh gosh easy easy true story true story got it got this variable we were down in Atlantis we're down in Atlantis on a family holiday vacation and then went to a pants out to a steak house we go to a steak house and they got those you know those crazy tomahawks and those bone-in ribeyes and the waiter comes over and Kevin I'm gonna say Kevin said this I asked I said what is the biggest steak you have in here and he snaps his fingers snaps his fingers and a whole entourage of employees come to the table hearing a cow know and they're like they gathered around and they were kind of talking and they go back into the kitchen and come out with this steak that was about that big around it was a loaf of meat yeah like it was with the bone with the bone and and they said they don't make him hardly ever in this restaurant and I said well do you have to and it was I swear to you it was he nod the bone like at the or pound steak and I ate the whole thing it's a full day of fishing Rob was I got hurt when we went through that when those fish started biting where I guys started to black out when I was eating that steak like 3/4 way through and my eyes started tingling and sparkling Corey Rozelle is asking what's better to watch for the shad spawn or the bluegill spawn but one to target something both I don't fish shad lakes as much as I fish bluegill awake so I target bluegill I like this cool next question Angelo DiLorenzo what's your proudest fishing moment any father who Wow Wow oh that's a great I love that question um well they sound ready for it then maybe more to go first off because the challenge is is we both have twins and you it's hard to put one with one moment with one over the other you know time so go ahead see I know what yours is already tournament yeah and last year there was a classic random we were all in studio and my kids had their big classic and it was for you know fifteen hundred bucks and big to them and trophies and plaques and and they took first and and and big bass and that was you know I wasn't there but my wife videotaped it but for Hunter and Jacob yeah I'm not gonna like something that was close to that was watching them back into a boat ramp the first time without me they actually got it in the water I was pretty proud I've had lots with my boys I'm gonna tell you Jackson and Nicholas have grown up but we carried him as babies with oxygen and feeding tubes and everything on the tour but they love to do different things so last year I got to take him down with Bo Johnson and we fished for glass grouper and sharks and that was cool so I got a picture of Jackson with like a hundred and eighty pound black tip in his hand and his you know bows the only guy crazy enough to to grab it out of the water and put it in his arms like that but that and we had big you know we all caught big sharks and groupers and they just that was a pretty special day right there so not necessarily the proudest moment I've ever had but I mean it were pretty just to see how much fun it was for them to be able to do that Oh Brian Scott's asking how the folks at home can help donate to autism and he nailed Mercer and he said gives the kbd for the contest this month yeah well John Kruse got a trophy made for it even yeah so the the deal with you know everybody there's a lot of good autism charities and generally there's some some good local in just about anybody's area and there's an there's several big ones so you know the great thing is is there's so much more awareness in the last few years it's it's it's really making a big difference so it doesn't matter which one I don't want to tell you to support just one so I you know myself I we end up supporting several several different ones both local and national alright Amanda Howard Haney what is the deepest you have ever seen a smallmouth fish on a bed any place you sent me with the cone yeah I've seen them with a cone down to 26 yeah we say 25 oh and I'm gonna tell you here's what I can say that was with my eye I'm gonna tell you that I'm positive on Lake Erie they spawn deeper way deeper way deeper on the Buffalo end of Lake Erie where that water is much much clearer when you get from Dunkirk to Silver Creek to sturgeon point stuff like that I'm convinced those fish will spawn in 30 to 35 feet of water when that water is clean I'm convinced them who doc talk is asking of your thoughts concerning the weed chemical the chemicals being used on lakes that get rid of the weeds the worst thing ever I understand controlling weeds that there's just no happy medium unfortunately oh my gosh you've got to be kidding me we finally got a bite and you've all my gosh let me let me tie understand using chemicals the correct way to control weeds the wrong way is decimating a lake carpet-bombing it cleaning it that is the wrong way to do it yeah there's my experiences they just there's no in-between let me ask you a question hold on SOOC I'm gonna ask you a question have you ever heard the term Oh I know where I'm throwing begging have you ever heard the term the statement Wow really spray in the grass in our lake has made the fishing just awesome you never hear that you never hear man you know just obliterate in the grass in our lake has just really exploded the fish pop I'm sorry I'm not gonna go all political on that controlling it's good eradicating that's a breaking news okay we got the image of the staredown Sylvia in Atlanta what and there oh my gosh oh my gosh I'm not gonna lie I think I beat him there see in it I think I ate more of my steak when he ate it no question no no then he beat me up Kevin Jerry's what what do you imagine you would do when you were and if you retire from fishing then do a little fishing and then I'm gonna go hunting in hunting season but then Z's gonna call me we're gonna go fishing so basically you'll go fishing we're gonna go fishing that you get this free time together to just fun fish is this like the best not even a while we try to do a little bit of summer vacay where we get to the majority of our fishing those on a pontoon boat yeah yeah and that's fine but but what we did we used to do a lot of this SOOC what we're doing today just do a lot of this kind of wrote that and where we don't get to as much anymore and a lot of that's on him a lot of that's on me we both have yeah oh no now that you're not going to the studio as much so maybe Oh Chad water what wants to know he's a young aspiring fisherman good how would you approach the small Clearwater high Morgan Lakes big in ping on switch I got a giant that's old [ __ ] that's a good one I did everything I couldn't shake him off I guess look at that priests boner [Music] yeah he's got the you know the brown and purple the PB&J for breakfast switch what were you saying I'm sorry you young guys start out on the clear high pressure California likes how would you approach those well I'm gonna approach those the same way I would say in Michigan here's what I can tell you don't be scared to fish the outer realm when I say don't be scared to fish the outer realm a lot of the unknown you can't seem a lot of people when they see their depth finder go past 20 feet of water they freak out if you really think about it think about it look at this boat right here this boat is 21 feet long that's not deep you see what I mean no you look at this boat from tip to where uncle wes is standing that's 20 feet okay that's not deep like when we call them yesterday 30 to 40 feet of water that's still not Oh that's still not that the the one thing I could tell you in clear clear clear water don't be scared to look at your depth finder and see 4260 they live out there alright for both mark and Ken from Jason Goss st. Joe County and those days of dog wandering to know how to help and get local underprivileged kids involved in fishing great any local organizations that you know to contact us see how they can help to get kids involved in fishing the best thing to do is call your local police station because most put most firemen most county in Michigan most County like st. Joe County Michigan they have a kids fishing day kids fishing you know outing and stuff like that here that's the at least that I know Kevin might I think you're involved in programs up here yeah there's a lot of camps - all around the country that have fishing programs that you can get kids to like so pretty late vacation camp is one they do a burn camp for a week there and and fishing is part of their program Sherman Lake camps another one there's one there's one on the other side of the state at gross Isle I mean there there's a lot of different kids camps that don't have weeks designated just towards that Jeff Harris how much you know you real quick I'm gonna get dangerous with this g.z have you ever been banned from DNR Sports Center no I don't think only only ten vanderhill shot harrison KBT is RVD a better fisherman jvd he's the best all-time probably best ever in the history of fishing I guess alright David French wants to know about northern smallmouth mouth and southern small off what's the difference there they're not even the same species man northern smallmouth and a southern smallmouth to me they are not the same species Kevin may agree or disagree but I can tell you the ones I fish for four hours north of here do not act like they do eight hours south of here he's in South Carolina 100 but the patterns of now that it's the the difference is is the Forge bases where they live that's really controls how they act and and what they're going to you know what they're going to you know set up on as far as structure and things like that ours have so many different types of forwards now but I mean it's it's perch it's gobies somewhat crawfish things like that emerald shiners you know Cisco's al wives and that we're down south those shatters and stuff like that no good small fishing in the south isn't small fishing compared to up here oh I know it's just it's in the right place they caught a run on the judge wants to know how do you guys manage to fish with gloves the Dakota has trouble feeling rod and it feel with with gloves on I can tell you even though these are what these are the best fishing gloves I've ever used in my entire life ever ever it's a pair of Carhartt fishing gloves and I literally cannot get enough of them in my boat like I sittin here with 12 pairs you went through three pairs you have to work out Wagner's yesterday grabbed another pair there they're real real thin plus they got a good grip hey Viji how do you balance fishing and family being so much on the road same with you probably see piers you've done a really good job you guys got some really sharp well-mannered children appreciate that and said really like nine times in that sentence I only read it once okay sherry does the best job of managing the schedule and plan and you know so we we schedule family time you have to you know I mean it's it it's harder the older your kids get but they're only young once so you have to enjoy it while you can and now that minor in college you know their schedule is pretty rigid and so mizar's so it makes it harder to do but sherry does a really good job of looking out in advance and and a lot of times we schedule things hoping that it all lines up and sometimes it does sometimes it don't but I only have like six friends and two of them are hunter and Jacobs so we fish like eight days a week together so my biggest thing is whenever I can get on the water with hunter and Jacobs one minute TJ asks how competitive are your twins when it comes to fishing very I mean with each other I mean are they let's have the other one when they outdo them um here's what I can tell you on their tournament side because they fish you know they face 20 to 30 tournaments minimum a year now is I can tell you when one of them is catching them and I can tell you when one of them's not because the other one lets him know your your backpack right now and I'm carrying you that's how they refer to each other huh might not mean to each other like that hey Kevin we are got a question from mark Z down in Sturgis if there was a professional team tournament trail would Zona ever be your partner we only got an hour - we got to go get out of this wind has changed I'd say we say it I'd almost go to the far end and go with it back I'm good with that I'm good last question go sue Bradley Keith which would you rather have the all-time classic record of the all-time a Hawaii record both which would you rather crush and put out of reach is what they wanted to know both no seriously no hold on I'm gonna call you on that you could only get one come on I think as an angler the angler of the year the angler of the year is the hardest it's you rather have that didn't know the classic means more to the general fishing public but to the angler know 10 years from now when you're 65 and you say to yourself 10 years from now whatever you are I mean you're come on what'd you say last year I'm not over the damp yes ten years from now you say to yourself that's what I wanted the classic is it is it's the biggest deal in our sport I thought one locked up my okay last commercial break you any questions hashtag zone alive one more hour we're gonna make make a little statue back in a minute we go oh my gosh look how perfect this bath is built look how perfect that things don't just perfect Josh we looked literally look for days to find the right cell service [Music] Wow Wow Wow Wow Wow [Music] so Noir is watching bye-bye papa perfect summer in tact joined today in boat us.com you're watching zonal I brought to you by Khalid bird watching him with a spinnerbait his art that was the best bite ever oh my god did he cream it I cast it out there turn the handle once and he piled it is art it is magical gooey rich goodness to watch him fish that thing that's a big in [Music] I thought big and that is a big in come here give me give me something right there that's a big in that Gant or Wow let's keep him the instachat man that is a handful I go back to certain shoots that we've had and certain vacations that we've had where he really does not care the entire vacation or shoot if you catch one but he'll let you look at all the ones that he's got a chicken Kevin VanDam will catch a great big one and say did you see that yeah I saw that and I saw the last 30 every one of them was my god bigan and it was setting up to be just another one of those shoes oh my gosh hey Blackie another mamba we ought to just go to another late let's just leave just leave it kid and I always say on this show that I am NOT a very competitive human being that is a big in but I am with him you hear me boy and hey friends welcome back final power power zone alive it's been quite a morning if you're just tuning in we have had a T IME we re Easter we have moved we have moved I just got one right when we moved right there so I believe I believe we've kind of we've hurt the break that we were Oh got a happen that's something fresh ones rationale on look at that no red mouth showing the red mouth you got to have that when you you know early in the year like that they'll all have that roof of their mouth that red like that just getting ready getting ready for the party party starts it's tonight to know tomorrow night who will be at the party Kevin everybody who's anybody except for you cuz you're gonna leave your work you'll be working I'll be working this weekend I got a fully stocked chill chamber I want to thank everybody that's hung with us today on zone alive it's been awesome thanks for asking me to go yes sir we got one hour yet we still look at that one on the boat oh look at that big jug and lower that one that's a sloppy joe well it's seriously dropped 15 degrees since this morning and the wind has changed 180 degrees yeah st. Claire would have been no fun no no no no no no no no it's all work here comes some more rain just a little deeper spot I got that deep jerk no just loading up on it not like that early-morning bite

pesto's a lot less questions 45-minute well 30 minutes now just keep sending them into feels bigger not allow to fast you're moving too fast to be a big in so what's gonna happen because I know how this program works is I'll be jerking them up like that then he's gonna slide that little old rage bug or that jig out there melon head mm-hmm that wouldn't be close to the boat like real close well there's good grass where I'm growing is there okay I'm like really good I'm gonna have to put the shallower bait on it really good I'm not hitting it the bottom yet no really good grass this deep one run so deep it's that but it's just bottom grass yep no others know there's cabbage where you're throwing right there yeah I have not caught any cabbage melon heads lunch oh yeah plum pitch oh god that one took a lot out of my hand okay I want to catch one on her but yeah that was something God did he pound it again no no there's one yeah see what happens with the rage bug I'll tell you though in the old jerkbait locks up like that it doesn't enjoy that chunk I'll get that man we've done a bunch of shows on cracking tubes in grass this time of year actually one of them aired last year cracking tubes through real heavy grass and basically it's the same principle right there just with a rage bug about what I've noticed is about that rage bug you'll get a few less fights than a tube but what your size can exponentially go up I like I like that ends I actually was going back to the left okay to up in here right there yeah that's where I caught the last one and you were you were you ripped his hair and a-rippin and a-tearin through grass no but that last one was about knocked the rod out of my hand so I bet he's got friends I get all serious naturally but no I got a here you take the front sure let me throw this back yonder okay okay because I had that I got a feeling he had pals was he been a tyre I mean it was just sitting there and he about revealed out of my hand yeah it was on the big pause which is a one second for me really grouped up good I hope they are all weekend Oh weathers helps eyes get brighter 1017 keep moving dude we gotta we got to rock this out learn and turn I'm funky they're not going nowhere Jack what do you got there nothing alright you go ahead and take it enough I'll chuck up I knew it I knew by the end of the day I'll have that trolling motor Oh how many times do you start on the trolling motor and I finish well always pretty much every time yeah Wesson little rock go ahead KVD best 30 minutes left of a tournament you've ever had I'm gonna tell you the last 30 minutes at bass fest at Kentucky Lake two years ago was incredible I was catching a four to six pounder every throw yeah I remember that yeah and no camera it was awesome Shay Baker JB a plaid Shay Baker's de Baker I don't know but all I know is he's catching them every throat it was unbelievable so let me ask you the rumor was the rumor was if I can le won the classic that he was gonna retire this year he was all done if KVD had won the classic would he have done that questions for Marxian sturgeon off Twitter handle what would I do if I retired man everybody wants me to retire Aaron keeps asking me when are you gonna retire well you anytime what'd he say to me once Oh bro could you imagine my VD wouldn't be fishing the same era I was fishing he's got to meet one row did you imagine my record I mean it's still good record but imagine how good it would have been yeah we good yeah we did we coming up on some small chase know how much lounge ooh Suchi yeah I knew they've been kind of thinking about it for a while and you know I think that opportunity came up in it he's good at it I think he's he's phenomenal at he's fantastic at it yeah we are enjoying him he's a natural at it he's he's every like I seriously he's I look up to as as little time as he's done it look let me put it this way and Kevin knows what I'm saying about this working with Tommy Sanders is Tommy makes your job easy because he's so awesome at what he does you know what I mean oh yeah but for for no more time then Davies really done it but he's the right guy to do it he's the right guy he was nervous about it going in - he was he was because oh there's a good old blue bacon KVD coming to jump oh I might have to put my jerky see I got him thinking that that's a there's one that's a bigger one there then we drop a week no a day man oh that is a pretty good one right there oh my god oh it's a great Megan it's a great big of all my gosh was that huge there was one swimming with that right there that was a double double thank you yeah yeah you see what I'm thinking I let that one go down it's hoping he was gonna eat the jerk made out of his own one that was following was a great villain yeah it was a mega Kong yeah okay I might just slide that you're going up there see what happens yeah I'm about with you on that - what's that I have it I betcha yeah 14 1 12 well well was it 12 I think it's 12 and change.i big on it suits like that one that was a really nice one following I saw - this morning - when it was really early that work look look look look look look below the bow that's the one that just followed you in yeah I think I might - cuz I'm not gonna let you do that deal all by yourself for a couple minutes anyways it's so fun when they go cook as much as I like catching them jerkin that structure jig is if you fish you got 35 minutes of zone alive if you fish in lakes that have grass this is the greatest deal ever because of that head design right there I mean it slides it's it stands up like a football jig but it comes through the grass like a swim jig hit real quick talk to them about that trailer real quick we were talking about earlier I think that's really cool the just this chunk on there with is just a straight chunk yeah for cold water you want a subtler action and when when you're you know fishing a jig like this it's just it's just got a flat tail I can show it again why you doing that to me where I got to reel myself in to show it you know I just thought one locked up too I love a rage car it's got a ton of action but these pinchers on this they're just a little fatter on the inside when it comes through the water it just kind of undulates a little bit and boy when it's cold that's what you want it's just that glide and that just that that flutter to it they don't want that that pounding action of the rage crawl but that subtle action of the rage bug that swims they fear like that but those tails are much smaller than a rage rage craw moving are you all right on it right on the mark right on it these gloves I want to really feel it go oak oh it's been a special magical magical day about one more cast for this G isn't already man it's hard to believe it's gonna warm up as it is tomorrow on the next day I think it's the rain still gonna be here tomorrow yeah no no no no no no no is it gonna be through its storms on Saturday morning Saturday morning yep but warm storms Oh bringing the bringing the Thunder okay jerk and twitch you know if we're not even you know we were sitting there we're not even to the juice you know we were sitting there talking yesterday about taping with Hackney that show airs in a couple weeks and what show well when we taped a couple weeks ago and we did that zone alive and and here's what's interesting is I'm dead serious about if you look at him it's taken me a while to think of this through tell me if I'm right on this he looks like an Ewok from eternity that's not the first time anybody said that he looks just like an Ewok okay we'll get right into Juicy Juice fifteen minutes till the part where we got little little little smaller some other day I've cut several smaller that jerkbait wolf the jerk mate will find them all sizes okay fifteen minutes till your final power our suit and Kevin already has yes he has a question picked but it's it could still be could be trumped it could be trumped oh no we got 15 more minutes for the helix 10 for the helix 10 mega imaging helix 10 Johnny that's a walleye that's a walleye the way he bit so dadgum walleye yep nope nope he fiddled with you didn't he he did Oh bigoted bigoted I had a big head shake yeah I would say you never know with the jerk braid the way they get hooked something oh it's a medical just a mackerel cable mackerel it's a big in just the wrong well I would knock the side off of them some fine eating fine even man I mean he got all of it honey we have trashed this boat we have destroyed this boat the best part is is he never touched the line either I don't think a lot of people think you catch a pike here in a bad spot piking bath up here eat the same stuff I gotta get a new bug go ahead God go ahead guys here we go he's back on the trolling motor you just hear whizzing going by just be glad I'm not throwing that 10 XD Wes was on the engine last year I got a 9 foot rod now Wes there's no place even the engines not safe but we get there you can run it if you want no no no no no no no no no way no way that's all you bud I don't mind throwing straight way up there I've had just as many bites way up on top there's not tall grass here like all right suit you got them locked up lined up ready to go good each no not yeah not yet not yet I'm gonna give some precursors what's coming up in the next to much believe we're doing we'll be we'll be doing a in eikenella one on a small mile fishery not too far from here and the summer and potentially setting up a

today hey suits what we're gonna do real quick we're gonna fish past about another 50 yards okay and then we're gonna run to one little deal out in the middle of the lake and we're gonna kill the day out there okay gotcha Eric you got that we're leaving in like three or four casts I just thought of a good question who might be the next to retire like a shot at lies and Biffle you got any insight on that KBB best fishermen don't retire from the elites oh I'd hate to guess we all believe in our own mind that we can do it forever physically it's a sport you can well yes and no what do you mean by that you physically you physically it not I mean competing is one thing but competing at the top level you know you end up being where you have to change your fishing style because your physical your body breaks down you know I mean you know Danny Brower with his back issues he physically oh think I'm stood it's a dead gone start if it's not a pike I think it's a pike dude it's too big big head shake really yeah that's a pig it's a big big mackerel Gator Kong that is a gas mouse he has the perfect size to Bly at your party tonight it's like her that's what we call a right slam like

everybody hope you guys have a great weekend but I mean this sincerely thanks for hanging with us today we're got we've got we got like 15 minutes left to have fun and we're gonna announce our grand prize winner of a brand-new hummingbird helix 10 mega imaging unit same exact unit we've been goofing with here all day long and what a day it has been ready Kevin I'm gonna bring you down wind of it and come back towards it all that see what it's doing is making a map there's a hunk right out here see that huh and that Auto chart live if you notice this what we did is before we started live this morning what I did was I ran over it you can see it's 24 24 18 18 and that auto chart showed exactly that pump right there and the fish should come up right on that little corner right there so the top of its gonna be right there dog yeah I see it I've had fun West I love you I love you you want me to this would be right down yeah best-built oh look another bass boater look who ain't seen all day long fishing my transition fish right there free spawners thinner mints a day to be out could be crappie here you know he's Bassam okay you know we're getting close I would think they'd be a pretty good corner right there to service it that lemongrass mm-hmm we're gonna be on the east corner it's su CH 3 minutes power hour ready to roll I feel like it's the last 15 of a tournament what's my best I tied David Dudley in a tournament years ago I tied him for the win on Lake vermilion on Lake vermilion and I caught one this is no joke it's actually not my best one of my worst I caught one in the last 10 to 15 minutes that would have gave me about another 6 ounces 5 or 6 ounces and I had it hooked deep but it was like literally the last 10 minutes of the tournament I thought gosh I'm not sure he'll make it to check-in and I let him go I ended up losing if I would have put him in the in alive well and wristed risked it I oughta beat Dudley I had a cabbage done oh geez yeah I'm in good grass really good suits fire Cerie Chow who is number one on your list and you have not fished with and where would you go with them that's on me lufia serie ciao number one on my list that I've never fished with and where would I go that's easy for me my current list right now I would say I'm not gonna lie just because he's a motivator yes I would go Mike I mean I thought one locked up I'd say Mike Ditka and I'd want to go right back to this lake right here right here Mike Kevin I'd go straight up Donald Trump gross sivan yes because we would dang sure catch him there make Louise Louisiana great again going this is fire you only had one piece of electronics like the helix ten where would you install it front of boat or - oh that's a good question I've install it right here nope you have one God just install it right here but I put it on a pivot mount where you can turn it around and use it on both there you go Kevin same yeah you have to you got to be able to use it you got to be able to use it on both you got to have to link together look at that cabbage look at that Wes that is the that is good use of the juice right there that is what that's what makes magic that is what we're fishing the rest of the weekend on every Lake we tape on right there it lasts all winter Matt Fisher has a good one if you had to pick one song for KVD to sing a karaoke night to embarrass him what would it be and then vice versa one song - embarrassed that's easy I would go on Houston I will always love you okay did he win I will always love you I would want to see him do Purple Reign my friends oh I would I really would I was like totally wouldn't see him do that he's got husband asked hey VD if you go go back in time and use today's hummingbird technology what tournament would you like it do over all the ones you didn't win every single one I'm gonna tell you if I had mega imaging back when I first started fishing offshore it would have been a beat-down of epic proportions but but that's true not just for me anybody thought I hope we picked the right spot to finish a straight street once yeah well I'm just trying to follow that Michigan melonhead's zona would you want your kids to fish professional with all that comes along with it or to just be a fisherman I want them to do what they want to do I'm gonna support them if they do support them if they don't I'd like hunter and Jake them to be one to be a physical therapist and the other one to be a doctor or an attorney a dentist something like that you know what I mean fish home on weekends gotcha it's a tough gig man Joshua Goodwin from start to the later years of your career has to become easier over the years to be on the road away from your family kind of had that earlier it's not on the small stuff your wife I can tell you the best part of my job is my job and the worst part of my job is my job yeah being gone yeah but here and I mean this when I say this it's the best job on earth covering these guys for over a decade and and doing fishing shows it's the best but being I mean the camera guys Wes and Eric and usage and Kevin would you would you do but the the hard part is and and it's not me complaining about the hard part is being gone 220 days a year that's hard to earn 40 days a year that's hard you know you come back and like reintroduce yourself to the way your family lives yeah as long as you've ever been away in one stretch there both of you really one stretch I think Kevin's been gone a month and I've seen the family sitter if they went fishing with me they're pepper okay Chris Mobley asks what are your favorite spring colors to play ho first respawn man this hope crappie look here yeah say it again sue favorite colors for a pre-spawn bass [Music] it just depends on the it's not it's about the forge you know and the type of bait so to me the lakes in Michigan anything that looks like a bluegill yeah a bluegill or a perch a stew yep that's all if you really look at what we've done today everything we've thrown looks like a bluegill or a perch yeah the jig the range bug the jerk bait a lot of lakes in the South it's crawfish you you know you want a crawfish colored baits red stuff Brown but in the shadow lakes pretty hard to beat a sexy shed jerk bait you know about ten minutes left keep going suchi on Scipio knee waters Nona's favorite nachos who's that from oh dude that's John's Scipio knee Johnson peony bun AV port Montreux Hubbard I will tell you the barbecue pulled pork pork for the Table Rock at Big Cedar Lodge but those tenders and I'll be there Monday night I mean we gonna knock the fire out of some Brandon Rogers well these tactics work down here in Kentucky on our small mouth waters such as Lake Cumberland and Dale Hollow yep I'm gonna tell you that thing right there on Cumberland and Dale Hollow there you go great swimmer KBD magic there you go jerk mate - for sure maybe the Yeti Fair is asking what is one thing to do like to a copy yeah he's always coming what's the one thing you would still like to accomplish in life Kevin gosh five and ten Wow yeah yeah from a fishing standpoint I want to do zona live like every month okay hold on we can arrange that friend trust me we can get us a contract oh you satisfied with that answer okay marks it again are you satisfied with his answer that what you want as an accomplishment go left in his life he's already done it man seriously do it for that if he goes on to win this or win that or win this oh and last year win three but he's got to me he's done more for the fishing industry getting people involved teaching people to me a gret hey his trophies are great they're wonderful but he's taught more people about fishing and to me that's a huge accomplishment what about you what do you want accomplishment don't ah sure what Oh in all honesty I would like to be doing my regular show and I'd like to equal it a number with zona live shows a year then I would be okay marry stoner wants to know who are your mentors who taught you to fish My Mind's right over my right hand shoulder yeah and the other ones actually over your shoulder Vandy to get a picture of Andy it's one of my mentors right there and I have done some Kirti Kevin do you a mentor well I'm really lucky my dad took me ice fishing when I was three and it that's what started this whole thing fascination for the water and you know my older brother helped me out a lot when I was coming up he started fishing tournaments and got that whole tournament buzzing into my mind but I have a whole bunch of them that you know the legends out there that you know Tommy Martin and Larry Nixon and who again claun and denny brauer a lot of those guys that that I used to we got a request to put you guys in a cage match you to Biffle and Hackney who's gonna come out we're fast we're fast I don't think like a spider monkey yeah I don't think Biffle unhappy now don't get me wrong you wouldn't want either one of those to catch you know what I mean iron Lotus Hackney so fast there you go that's a job what RZ and Kevin's thoughts on keeping other anglers / spectators off the lake during a big turn I know it's impossible you know it's impossible you can't do that part of the unique thing about our sport is that people can go out and and watch these guys and and see it you know the what I always say is just if you're different you know if you're being a spectator just be a good one watch the tournament Kevin you can go ahead and answer that how you want it yeah it's it's public water 99% of the people that are out there are not trying to affect the competition the 1% that does it kind of gives the other 99 a bad name but it's part of it man that's fancy watches you see a guy like little Greg and go what what are you really thinking dude come on you can't do it your own personal tournament get some lead all right Maximus scrubbers in Austin Taylor Kevin if you didn't take up fishing who do you think would have been the hammer for the last 20 years of the Bassmaster Tour ooh last 20 years that's a good one last 20 years there so just tighten up over there dog come on man bro I don't got one Aaron would have had a Aaron would have had a good run there for a while and oh we've catching nothing well I'm just trying to knows I want to get me Mindy yeah well you gave me this once how you know you're done with this circle I've had and you get a they gotta be I got a question MZ from Twitter handle Kevin if you were not a bass fisherman what would you have done for a living I'd probably be still just where I'm gonna be tomorrow and have my brother shop at DNR selling boats and and trying to be a bass fisherman I heard you were the best bass boat salesman in Michigan at one time I was I was better than you five minutes left Kevin suits one last question dog Gavin leggo hazy do you think Kennedy ever gets jealous of your budding bromance with Brent Ehrler I'm gonna have to let him answer that because Brent and I don't like each other we love each other we do hey don't bother me I know the real Z Bren Taylor's my spirit animal suit I am NOT a jealous person Kevin something to award somebody the winning the winning want the question for me and I can't remember but it was about the it was about the names of our bass of what we connect those nicknames that we call yeah Josh Schneider Josh Snyder's won him a helix 10 mega images hey I better wash it down he looks dead John Titor you wanna English dad he looks down hummingbird he looks tan what are you doing there that's why I'm doing and Josh Schneider is not the only winner in my eyes in my heart what I have right here now we didn't have a real big budget and I misspelled his name zone alive guest of the century Calvin that is it my friend so we've got to say something huge thanks in all honesty to everybody I've asked master calm these everybody that helped against the questions Sara fry so molesky arrived here and really helped so much that I would have ever not been able to hear anything from you no doubt they're sending me the questions go you know I'm so casted Oh seriously thank you
