Modern electronics are incredibly useful tools, but they’re not a requirement for a fun day on the water. Listen closely as Matt explains his decision making throughout the day, the clues he uses to locate fish, and how he builds a pattern. Even as conditions go from bad to worse, he’s able to adapt, and keep catching fishing.
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits Matt used through the day. We’ve also included the rod and reel combos he landed his fish with. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
