This was one of those grind-it-out tournament days.

I’m fishing a Big Bass hourly kayak tournament on Lake Fayette with the Texas Kayak Bass League, competing against 67 anglers in tough, windy conditions. The bite wasn’t easy — but once I got dialed in, it turned into fish after fish.

In this video, you’ll see the catches that added up to 203 inches of bass, the most fish caught in the tournament. No fluff, no filler — just real tournament fishing, decision-making, and execution from the kayak.

If you enjoy competitive kayak bass fishing, windy-day strategies, and watching how a tournament limit builds over time, this one’s for you.
