Practice day for the first Nativewatercraft no limit big bass power hour tournament of 2023 on New Melones Reservoir. This is a tournament where the big fish of each hour (8 hours total) wins $1000 and then the overall winner (most inches with no limit) wins a bunch of cash along with a few kayaks given away. The question is, do we go for a big fish or try to catch the most fish?
Baits
Drop shot worm (3.6’’ natural shad) - bit.ly/2OdLYxz
Jig (1/2 oz Green pumpkin blue) - bit.ly/304MPDt
…and trailer (Ike’s GP blue flash) - bit.ly/3eKHTKN
Other stuff
Bait Covers - bit.ly/3rbOQcP
Rod Carrier - bit.ly/32iGt4
Sun gloves - amzn.to/3KCExJI
Amber lens sunglasses - amzn.to/3KowiSR
Boots - amzn.to/3GUf7GR
Lifejacket - amzn.to/3QwE1PX

You are really fortunate to have a great group of friends at your tournaments. They make the tournament experiences so much better. I lived in Stockton when they were building New Melones but I never got a chance to fish it. I was a member of the San Joaquin Bass Rustlers back then. We had like 50 people in the club. Tournaments were super competitive. Good memories.

Your practice videos are so great because compared to your tourney or just for fun videos you fish fast enough to find them but slow enough to explain your reasoning for bait explanations and bait placement explanations. Seriously helps us other anglers out👌😎

With the kayaks today, technology, the motors, electronics, and all the add-ons we love. This sport is just growing. Unique tournament, nice weather, calm waters, good friends. Mikes a trip, with the builds he comes up with. 😂 Good luck my friend. 🎣 🌊 🛶

Having my morning coffee and envying you for nearly catching a bass with every cast (even if they weren't 14".) That's a mind-blowing amount of anglers entered in your kayak tournament! I haven't been to New Melones in a couple of years, but you had ideal weather. 👍 As always, best of luck to you and your buds 🤗🎣🤗
