Early April on Tuckahoe Lake can humble you fast. With brutal winds and a tough bite, locking down fish for the KBF tournament prep was an uphill battle. After grinding through hours of changing water conditions, a single quality largemouth on my sponsor Earl’s Tackle jig saved the day.

​Sometimes all it takes is one good fish to make the grind worth it. Let me know in the comments how you tackle high-wind days on your local water!
