Big Brown Bass from Ballard’s Black Island
We were unsure of what we’d experience on our Lake of the Woods smallmouth trip, but the quality of the fish exceeded any possible expectations. With a short growing season, we had no idea we’d run across so many 19- to 21-inch specimens, but on each of the last two days it took nearly a 20-inch minimum to crack our collective top five.
The Texas girl even managed to corral a random largemouth.
Soon we’ll publish more about the particular lures and strategies we used to catch the big brown fish, but in the meantime enjoy the video below:
