If you plan on fishing this fall, you've got to try this lure.

It's a hybrid between a topwater lure and a lipped jerk bait.

We haven't found anything more reliable at catching fish during the fall because this can cover more ground and gets the strikes from the schooling fish.

This past week I went down a rabbit hole of "prophetic" videos that are predicting a massive economic collapse. And to be honest, I got caught up it (and caught up in some fear).

Listen in as I share my candid thoughts...

If you've been fishing in the past year, it feels like there are more and more reports of sharks attacking people, fish, trolling motors, etc.

It may or may not be that there are more sharks in the water, but they are certainly getting more accustomed (and less afraid) of boats and people.

So in this episode, Wader Dave joins us to share what he's been using to deter sharks (and stingrays) when he's in the water every week.

Tight lines and enjoy.
