What Keith Combs Throws at Sam Rayburn in May
Keith Combs built his dream house just a short distance from Lake Sam Rayburn because he wanted to have easy access to what he considers consistently the best big bass tournament lake in the country. He’s won hundreds of thousands of dollars fishing in his home state and his education there has translated to success across the country. While he fishes Rayburn 12 months of the year, May is a sleeper – after the spawn but before bass are fully settled into their heart-of-summer patterns. Here are five lures he’s likely to have on the deck when May rolls around.
