About this episode

Jack Story skips his high school graduation to win the BFL All-American Championship, and the episode includes a guide on popper fishing techniques.

Jack Story just pulled off one of the most incredible moves in bass fishing tournament history — he skipped his high school graduation to compete in the Phoenix Bass Fishing League All-American Championship and walked across the bass stage as a champion instead. This week's tackle tip of the week: popper fishing. I dive into topwater bass fishing with poppers — when to throw them, which conditions produce the best blowups, and how to trigger explosive strikes from largemouth bass. Whether you're a boat fisherman, kayak fisherman working shallow structure, or a bank fisherman covering water from shore, these popper fishing techniques will put more fish in the boat.If you're looking for bass fishing tips, tournament recaps, and tackle advice you can actually use, hit subscribe.
