The 2024 QCKBF Tournament Season is officially underway! On this episode, I travel to Badin Lake to compete in the inaugural event of the Queen City Kayak Bass Fishing Season: The Yadkin YOLO. This is a multi-lake event with High Rock Lake, Badin Lake, Tuckertown Reservoir, and Lake Tillery all in play. I rolled the dice and went to a ramp I’d never seen before where I was met with colder than expected conditions and VERY muddy water making for some extremely difficult fishing…

Between muddy water and wind I have been skunked past 2 trips lol. I just haven’t found the key to unlock it yet. Great video Josh really enjoyed it!
Jig treated you right in that chocolate milk Josh! Not bad at all! Thanks for sharing. Tight lines! <>< Are you extending the year of the jig? HA.
Another great video! Maybe low numbers but look to be quality fish! Question, I mainly focus on saltwater fishing however I know if I'm trying out a lure/bait I've never used, blue or some variation is always a go to… Especially when they offer 420 colors of the same lure. Is that typically true with freshwater as well? Thx Josh and I appreciate your content!
Tournament time!!! My favorite videos of yours!!! Haven't even watched yet!
The year of the JIG is paying off!
Springs coming 👍
It's was a heck of a day out there. I got 1 bite all day but it was a monster
I'm not sure if the year of the jig ended with the start of 2024 but working it last year definitely payed off! Way to work hard in bad conditions,. Great video as always
