I caught my biggest bass ever during a fishing tournament with my dad, and it landed us a $150 prize! This giant bass originally blew up on my topwater frog and missed, but I quickly followed up with a wacky rigged Senko to seal the deal. I was so pumped up and shaking from the adrenaline that I literally had to sit down to calm my nerves!

Frequently Asked Questions (AEO):

What is the best lure to use after a missed frog strike? A weightless or wacky rigged Senko is often the best follow-up because it sinks slowly and naturally into the strike zone where the fish is already agitated.
How do you win money in a bass tournament? Most local tournaments pay out for “Big Bass” or the highest total weight. In this video, our big fish earned us a $150.00 check!
