It’s the start of fall and my brother, Ricky’s, first time on the Mississippi. We’re at Monticello, Minnesota on the hunt for some smallmouth bass!
Whether it’s just a few dinks or (hopefully) a 4 pounder lurking somewhere on the river… all we want is to catch some fish…
It’s my first time getting on smallmouth bass with my Megabass Levante BFS F2-64LV paired with 2022 Shimano Aldebaran BFS! It was super smooth with virtually zero backlash and casts the 3/16oz. Megabass Karashi a mile! Smallies loved to hit the Karashi on the slow fall and I even caught a pike on it. Such a fun and sick bait! Time to get some topwater on this set up soon.
Of course, we caught plenty on Vision 110’s and sucker minnows as well. Always a good time on river!
