Bass Fishing with Brent

Hello all Lucky Craft fans around the world~! This is the Daily Flash Minnow Report.
I went Bass fishing for the first time in a long time. My fishing location for this trip was at the Diamond Valley Lake in Southern California, which is also known to be a prospered bass fishing lake. And not only that!! This time I got to go fishing with the world famous FLW pro angler, Brent Ehler. So speaking of Diamond Valley, I haven’t had much good memories here. I’ve been here about 3-4 times so far and I probably only caught about 1 fish. So this is one of the lakes I assume having no Bass.
So I asked Brent what our target fish is and he said, “We will look for boiling Bass and will keep casting among that area!” As for the range, we mainly used top baits such as, Gunfish or wiggly kinds.

Man~ so this method of aiming was a hit and I thought, “What a pro (about Brent of course)!” Within 3 hrs, we caught 5 Bass one after another! Wherever Brent would cast, there would always be a Bass there. Not only that! The size kept getting bigger and bigger! Brent was amazing! As for me, I didn’t get any hits! Brent, a very nice man he is, realized that and told me he will make sure I’ll catch one and I immediately tried out his way. Then after couple casting, I finally got a hit and caught a Bass!! It was my biggest one yet! (about 3.5 lbs) But I didn’t catch it with a hard bait so that doesn’t count in my record. Can everyone imagine how I caught this?? (If you leave your answer in my comment, I will secretly tell you the answer!)

At about an ending point of our day, we found a ridiculous amount of boils, we were all so surprised!!!
Without hesitating, we immediately cast to that area and at the same exact time, Brent and I got a hit!! I’ve never experienced such pull before and the bass kept swimming around! What should I do with the drag!? Loosen it! It was a Striped Bass! Without being impatient, I waited for Brent to pull his up first, and then I did the same.
We lined up our Bass together!!! It was so~ heavy!

Wow~ that was an amazingly fun experience.
Brent! Thank you so much always! One more tournament to go, I wish you the best! The Lucky Craft staff will all be wishing you the best as well.
