1. Brandon Palaniuk is now with Megabass.
Interesting. What's weird is I asked him once if he ever tried a Vision 110 and he said he'd never heard of it?
HAHAHA just messin'! Megabass also got Japanese stick Kenta Kimura who's fishing here:
> Palaniuk will represent Megabass hard baits, wire baits, jigs and jigheads. Kimura will work on the soft bait side only, including rigged soft baits. They will join current pro team members Randy Blaukat and Matty Wong....
2. Luke Clausen gets Phenix Rods.
3. Cory Johnston gets 6th Sense.
So no more SPRO I guess...?
4. Mark Rose doesn't see his fishing changing much...
...with the change to 5:
> I'll probably be willing to leave a spot sooner, and I'll probably break out a fewer of those bigger baits. I might not trim my stuff up as tight and will probably fish a few less Ned rigs – but my overall mindset isn't going to change much at all.
5. Freddy Boom Boom likes topwaters in COLD water.
Bait that stood out to me is the Ima Little Stik 135, tho the new Baby Stik 105 looks cool too. Fred's fishing an old-school Norman Front Runner in that vid too!
6. Evers, Bertrand, Mullins jerseys on eBay for St Jude.
Here's Edwin's, here's Josh's, here's David's.
7. KY: Paintsville already has FL-strain bass.
Major League Fishing, Anglers for Improving Opportunities and the Kentucky Team Trail partnered to figure out whether FL-strain largemouths were in there already because they wanted to stock some. Looks like a green light:
> This data challenges the beliefs of many of the country's top scientists on just how far the FL largemouth had spread into states north of TN. "Judging by our data, that line is much further north now than anyone realized."
8. AR wants to stock 100K smallies a year in Lake Catherine.
Sounds like it could get good fast:
> "It never had vegetation, but the year we started stocking [2019] is the year it exploded with aquatic vegetation."
9. TX: Next state record bass will be from Fork or Caddo?
10. KS State nose guard Eli Huggins almost fished in college?
He might make the League....
11. FL: Community College won MLF Harris Chain tourney.
Will Hammond and Cabe Mackey of Catawba Community College, NC. Is that a first – meaning a community college winning one? Props to 'em either way!
Check how they did it:
> ...focused on a shell bed in 6' of water and utilized a Carolina rig tipped with a large worm.
12. T-H Marine providing prizes for ACA college tourneys.
