    Discover Explosive Prespawn Bass Action Across the USA: Tackle Pro Secrets Revealed
    2026/02/16
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' the latest bass buzz across the US like a sneaky topwater popper on a glassy dawn. If you're a fly slinger dreamin' of switchin' rods for some chunk largemouth or spots, listen up—these hawgs are fired up right now.

    Kickin' off with the hottest win: Alabama's Fisher Anaya just crushed the Lippert Bassmaster Elite at Lake Martin, haulin' 54 pounds, 6 ounces over four days. PR Newswire reports he sealed it Championship Sunday with a monster 15-12 limit of spotted bass in pourin' rain—every cast a 2.5-plus, includin' a near-4-pounder that smashed his dice-style bait 5 feet off the boat. He scoped prespawn females on rockpiles 5-7 feet deep in the south end's clean pockets, usin' Garmin LiveScope from 50-70 feet out. Runner-up Brock Mosley nabbed almost-4-pound largemouths shallow, but Anaya's long-distance casts and finesse nail-weight rig owned it. Lake Martin's south pockets are straight fire for spots stagein' on stumps and rocks—perfect for you fly guys imaginin' a precise streamer strip.

    College kids are killin' it too. Lander University's Matthew Knopp and Logan Russell snagged the 2026 MLF College Fishing National Championship on Lake Murray, totallin' 70 pounds, 10 ounces. Landerbearcats.com says they dominated close to home with career-best sacks, punchin' tickets to the Toyota Series. Lake Murray's dishin' big bass—YouTube angler vids show jiggin' cold water for 6.5-pound giants early 2026. Jig or fly a meaty bug in those depths, and you're golden.

    Hot spots? Texas is primed per Texs.com's 2026 guide: East Texas Pineywoods for giants, West Texas boom lakes, and deep border reservoirs. South Dakota's Roy Lake packs smallmouth bass with bluegills and pike, Midwest Lip Rippers style. And Muskegon, Michigan's gearin' for July Pro/Am at Adelaide Pointe—shallow bays screamin' potential.

    Notable catches: That Lake Martin 4-pounder spot's a freak—Anaya said he's never seen one that big there. Jackson Lake's got a wall-hangin' 15-8 beast, GON.com notes, grabbed bankside.

    One curveball: Striped bass strugglin' east coast. Maryland DNR's Josh Kurtz says this brutal cold winter might boost Chesapeake spawn by slowin' the warmup—larvae need steady 57-68 degrees and zooplankton. But Hudson River juveniles tanked third year runnin', Outdoor News reports. Tighter regs comin', like April catch-and-release.

    Bass are boomin' US-wide, locals—grab your gear, hit those prespawn pockets, and chase the pull. Thanks for tunin' in, come back next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production—for more, check out Quiet Please Dot A I.

    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' the latest bass buzz straight from the U.S. waters. If you're a fly rod slinger eyein' those chunky largemouth or smallies, listen up – these spin-castin' antics might just tempt you to grab a baitcaster for a day. Lake Murray in South Carolina just exploded with college fire over the weekend.

    Lander University's Matthew Knopp and Logan Russell snagged the 2026 Columbia PFG College Fishing National Championship, haulin' a monster three-day total of 70 pounds, 10 ounces. MajorLeagueFishing reports they hammered sneaky spots like docks, stumps, grass, cane, and brushpiles with a tiny 3/4-inch dice bait on a jighead – think finesse over power, dodgin' the pressured main-lake crowds. Day 3's 23-10 bag sealed it, edgin' University of Montevallo by just 3 pounds. These home-lake grinders from Greenwood put in endless weekends, and that final-day run-and-gun on fresh brushpiles and cane? Pure gold. Runners-up like Montevallo's James DuBose and Daylon Milam punched 69-7, advancin' to pro gigs at the Toyota Series Championship for shots at $235k and REDCREST 2027.

    Lake Murray's the hot spot right now – Capital City Lake Murray Country calls it a world-class fishery, hostin' this epic with 151 college teams. Pre-practice smarts paid off; they predicted jighead minnow overload and flipped the script with that Coike Creature Bait. A nerve-wrackin' near-6-pounder saved their Day 2 bacon too.

    Elsewhere, pre-spawn largemouth are groupin' on Inks Lake near Austin, Texas. Bassquatch Fishing says water's 56 degrees, stained, with fish stackin' on rocky banks and secondary points – crankbaits and shaky head finesse worms in 5-12 feet around docks are dealin' multiples. Warmin' temps mean the spawn's revvin' up.

    Tourney trails are heatin': iKon Boats Tailgate Tour kicks off February 28 on Florida's Harris Chain, no pros allowed, $10k payouts leadin' to a free Chickamauga championship. Bassmaster Elite's ragin' at Alabama's Lake Martin, where rookie Fisher Anaya leads Day 3 with 38-10. And Lake Murray hosts BFL All-American May 28-30.

    Bass world's poppin' – subtle baits beatin' big swings, just like switchin' flies on finicky trout. Get after it, locals.

  • Massive Bass Catches and Hot Tournaments Highlight Surging Spring Fishing Across America

    Massive Bass Catches and Hot Tournaments Highlight Surging Spring Fishing Across America
    2026/02/14
    # Bass Fishing Heat Up Across America

    Hey there, I'm Artificial Lure, and welcome back to the show. Man, what a time to be a bass angler in this country right now. The water's warming up, the fish are biting, and we've got some seriously impressive catches to talk about.

    Let's kick things off with some jaw-dropping news out of Texas. According to San Angelo Live, an Abilene fisherman named Travis McCollough absolutely crushed it at Fort Phantom Hill Reservoir just over a week ago, landing a massive 14.35-pound largemouth bass. This wasn't just any catch either – it's now a new lake record and what they call a Legacy Class ShareLunker, which means it weighs 13 pounds or more. McCollough said he was just hoping for something decent to bring home for a tournament he had that Saturday, and then boom – ten minutes after his prayer, he had the fish of a lifetime on the line. No net needed, either. The thing just laid up sideways in the water, and he knew immediately he was looking at something absolutely huge.

    But wait, there's more Texas magic happening. Outdoor Life reported that fishing guide Wendell Ramsey Sr. caught a 13.76-pound largemouth at Hords Creek Lake on February 11th, setting a brand new record for that waterbody. Ramsey was throwing an umbrella rig when a massive bass rocketed past two other fish and absolutely smashed it. He described it like setting a hook into a soft log at first, then the headshakes start and you just know you've got something special. Hords Creek is now the 80th public water body in Texas to produce a Legacy Class bass, which speaks volumes about how successful the ShareLunker program has been down there.

    Now let's shift gears to the tournament scene. The Lippert Bassmaster Elite at Lake Martin in Alabama is heating up. According to Bassmaster, Mississippi's Brock Mosley is sitting pretty at the top after Day 2 with a total of 26 pounds, 6 ounces. The guy caught a tournament-high 15 pounds, 7 ounces on day one and managed another 10 pounds, 15 ounces on day two despite a slow morning. What's cool is he's been targeting shallow water with what he calls a fuzz ball – green pumpkin with blue or purple flake – and he's been absolutely destroying it. The water temperatures around Lake Martin have been bouncing around, and Mosley's been smart about adapting, fishing offshore when things get slow and moving back shallow when the bite kicks back in. New Jersey pro Michael Iaconelli caught the biggest bass of the tournament so far, a 5-pound, 3-ounce largemouth that's absolutely crushing the previous record.

    Over in the college ranks, the Columbia PFG College Fishing National Championship just wrapped up Day 2, with some serious talent competing for the ultimate prize.

    If you're looking to get out on the water yourself, Florida's still firing. Captain Experiences reports that the Everglades is fishing great despite the cold fronts, with both live and artificial baits working well. The warm water flows down there make it a year-round destination, and if you're thinking about heading down that way, this is prime time.

    So there you have it, folks – Texas is producing record-breakers left and right, tournament bass are getting chunky, and there's still plenty of season left. Whether you're targeting massive largemouths in Texas reservoirs or hitting the shallow stuff at your local lake, now is absolutely the time to get out there.

    Thanks so much for tuning in today. Make sure you come back next week for more fresh bass fishing news and intel. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check us out at QuietPlease dot AI. Tight lines, everyone.

  • Massive Texas Bass, Southeast Pre-Spawn Dominance, and Striped Bass Recruitment Crisis: The Latest Fishing Hotspots Revealed

    Massive Texas Bass, Southeast Pre-Spawn Dominance, and Striped Bass Recruitment Crisis: The Latest Fishing Hotspots Revealed
    2026/02/13
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' the latest on bass fishin' across the US. If you're a fly rod junkie dreamin' of switchin' it up for some chunk largemouth or linesiders, I've got the fresh scoop that'll get your pulse racin'. We're talkin' monster catches, hot holes, and buzz that's got the bass world hummin' this February 2026.

    First off, Texas is on fire with legacy-class beasts. TPWD reports Travis McCollough yanked a 14.35-pound ShareLunker from Fort Phantom Hill Reservoir near Abilene – a new lake record that smoked the old one. Drake Wadsworth followed with a 13.10-pounder from Toledo Bend, pushin' the season total to four double-digit pigs already. These hawgs are proof of decades of breedin' and habitat tweaks by TPWD biologists, turnin' spots like O.H. Ivie and Alan Henry into big-bass factories. Imagine sight-fishin' those shallows with a fly – beds are poppin' early!

    Head to Alabama's Lake Martin, where Bassmaster Elite pros are maulin' 'em. Mississippi's Brock Mosley leads Day 1 of the Lippert event with 15 pounds, 7 ounces, grindin' plentiful but finicky fish on secondary points and drops. Bassmaster says fish are stackin' up, but size is tough – perfect for patient fly flingers chuckin' streamers to pre-spawn staging zones. Over on Lake Murray, college studs from University of Montevallo sacked 26 pounds, 6 ounces defendin' their natty title, huntin' key bites in the shallows.

    Hot spots? Bass Forecast's 10-day outlook screams pre-spawn across the Southeast – Alabama, Georgia, Florida, yadda yadda. Hit migration routes, secondary points, transition banks, and flats near spawners with soft jerkbaits or Ned rigs, but swap in a clouser or bugger on the fly for those big females slidin' shallow. West Coast and South? Fair to good bites dodgin' rain, while Midwest and Northeast stay winter-tough – drop-offs and basins if ice breaks. Sam Rayburn's low water is concentratin' fish like crazy, per Bassmaster, with deep points and suspended timber holdin' singles – crankbaits or jigs rule, but a slow-swingin' fly could unlock 'em.

    Interestin' twist: Striped bass on the Atlantic face a recruitment crisis, Midcurrent says. ASMFC kept 2026 regs status quo – 28-31 inch slot, one-fish limit – but seven years of weak baby stripers in Chesapeake and Hudson got 'em formin' a work group. Big '15-class fish are prime for fly chuckers on flats and rips, but schoolies are ghostin'. Tennessee's doublin' down too, backin' Bassmaster Classic in Knoxville and High School Nats on Kentucky Lake – expect crowds and conservation wins.

    Y'all, bass are bitin' if you know where to cast. Tight lines, and thanks for tunin' in. Come back next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production – for me, check out Quiet Please Dot A I.

  • Reel in the Biggest Bites: Bass Fishing Hotspots Across the US Revealed

    Reel in the Biggest Bites: Bass Fishing Hotspots Across the US Revealed
    2026/02/12
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' the latest on bass fishin' across the US. If you're a fly rod junkie like me, dreamin' of tradin' that feather for a jig on cold days, these bass tales might just hook ya. Let's dive into the fresh bites.

    Start with a monster catch down in Texas. Outdoor Life reports 76-year-old Travis McCollough hit Lake Fork Phantom Hill on Feb 5 for some low-key practice. Water at 45 degrees, he crawled a green pumpkin jig slow along an 8-foot ledge. After two hours and a quick prayer, bam – a 14.35-pound largemouth that couldn't even jump, she was so beefy. New lake record, third Legacy class ShareLunker this season. Fought her 20 minutes, 25 inches long, football girth. Guy's fished 40 years, calls it a blessin'. Wired2Fish echoes he hadn't wet a line in three months – talk about divine drag screamer.

    Hot spots are firin' up too. Outdoornews says hang your hat on Blackwater Lake near Longville, Minnesota – just 771 acres but packed with largemouth and smallmouth. High numbers, big sizes everywhere, per guide Will Neururer. Texas Parks and Wildlife weekly report from Feb 11 lights up Dunlap Lake: bass bite turned on, quality up to 7 pounds on soft plastics and crankbaits, spawn comin' soon. Limestone Lake's banks at Branch Marina, Dooley Creek, and Navasota River are gold for prespawn bed hunters. Choke Canyon Reservoir's shorelines givin' black bass if ramps are closed.

    Tourney buzz is huge. Tennessee Tourism's backin' the 2026 Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Classic in Knoxville March 13-15, plus High School Nats on Kentucky Lake. TDTD calls it a world-class fishin' spot with 500,000 miles of water. Major League Fishing dropped the new Columbia PFG College Fishing Heavy Hitters Oct 25 on Douglas Lake, Tennessee – top 18 teams by biggest single bass all season. Big bite rewards, catch-weigh-release style.

    B.A.S.S. is pushin' BassmastHER workshops nationwide, startin' Feb 14 at Lake Martin, Alabama – ladies and girls gettin' on-water skills and community.

    Winter bass are huggin' ledges, jigs, and slow crawls like your streamer drifts. Grab the gear, chase these pigs.

  • Unforgettable Bass Fishing Action Across the US in February 2026

    Unforgettable Bass Fishing Action Across the US in February 2026
    2026/02/11
    # Bass Fishing in the United States: February 2026 Update

    Hey everyone, this is Artificial Lure, and boy do we have some exciting stuff happening in the bass world right now.

    Let's kick things off with what's happening down South. Tennessee is absolutely crushing it as a fishing destination, and they're doubling down on that commitment. The state just partnered with B.A.S.S. to host the 2026 Bassmaster Classic in Knoxville, and they're also presenting the Strike King Bassmaster High School National Championship on Kentucky Lake near Paris this summer. According to Tennessee Tourism, the state boasts 500,000 miles of rivers, lakes and streams with everything from trophy smallmouth to giant largemouth. Eighteen Bill Dance Signature Lakes are scattered throughout, making Tennessee basically a bass angler's dream playground right now.

    Speaking of major tournaments, the 2026 Progressive Bassmaster Elite Series just announced its field, and 101 anglers are gearing up for what looks like an absolute monster season. Last year was record-breaking with 11 century belts awarded and four first-time champions emerging from the rookie class. The Elite Series is bringing serious talent and serious competition.

    Now, let's talk about what's actually biting. Over in California, the Western Bass community is dealing with some Golden Mussel restrictions that have shaken things up, but anglers are adapting and finding success. Clear Lake just showed why it's called a true big-fish lake, with teams pulling multiple double-digit largemouths despite some challenging conditions. The winning formula? Minnow-style baits in the four to five inch range, and one key detail that separates the winners from everyone else is staying mobile instead of camping on one spot. Top anglers were catching a fish or two, leaving, then cycling back thirty minutes later. That rotation keeps fish active and prevents burning out areas.

    Down in Florida, Drew Gill just had one of those incredible days that remind us why we love this sport. The hottest angler on the planet right now weighed in 26 pounds of Florida bass on Championship Day to take down a Major League Fishing event on the Harris Chain. That's the kind of catch that gets the whole community buzzing.

    For you folks tracking water conditions like we should be doing, there's a free tool from the United States Geological Survey that tracks water temperature and streamflow across the country. According to reports, largemouth bass in the Deep South are already starting prespawn movement. If you're in Georgia, Alabama, Oklahoma, or Texas right now in mid-February, you might already be looking at prime catching time. February and March are identified as the prespawn months when some of the biggest bass of the year are most catchable.

    Weather's playing a role too. With warmer temperatures moving in across various regions, crappie are beginning to move toward spawning areas, but bass fishing remains solid along creek channels according to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

    What we're seeing across multiple reports is that February 2026 is shaping up to be a fantastic month for bass action if you get out there and fish smart. Focus on your presentations, pay attention to water conditions, and don't be afraid to move around and cover water.

    Thanks for tuning in, folks. Come back next week for more fresh bass fishing intel and tactics you can use immediately. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more updates, check out QuietPlease.AI.

    Tight lines out there.

  • Reel In Bass Fishing Excitement: Massive Catches, Tournament Triumphs, and Regulatory Updates Across the US

    Reel In Bass Fishing Excitement: Massive Catches, Tournament Triumphs, and Regulatory Updates Across the US
    2026/02/10
    # Artificial Lure's Bass Fishing Update

    Hey there, bass fans! Artificial Lure here, and boy do we have some exciting news from the waters across America this week.

    Let's kick things off with a monster catch that just went down at Toledo Bend Reservoir on the Texas-Louisiana border. A 21-year-old angler named Drake Wadsworth landed an absolute tank of a largemouth bass weighing 13.10 pounds with a 24.76-inch length. Wadsworth was fishing in a 161-boat tournament when he spotted this lunker high up in some flooded timber on his sonar. He knew right then it was a big one. After the tournament, instead of just pocketing the prize money, Wadsworth did something pretty cool—he donated the fish to the Texas ShareLunker program so it can be used for spawning at their hatchery. Now that's what we call giving back to the fishery.

    Over in Florida, the bass action has been heating up too. Banks Shaw from Harrison, Tennessee, just won the Toyota Series event at Lake Okeechobee, one of the most prestigious bass fishing destinations in the country. Shaw caught a total of 15 bass weighing 49 pounds and 5 ounces, edging out Kyle Cortiana by just 3 ounces. Shaw's strategy was simple but effective—he found two areas but focused all his effort on the one spot where he knew nobody else was fishing. Smart fishing, that.

    Now, if you're thinking about planning a trip, Lake Erie up in Pennsylvania deserves some serious attention. According to tourism guides, Lake Erie is consistently ranked among the top bass fishing destinations in the United States. Plus, if you're into steelhead fishing when the weather cools down, Erie is known as Steelhead Alley and gets stocked with roughly a million juvenile steelhead annually. For trophy bass in the summer months, though, Erie's central basin is absolutely world-class.

    And here's some big news for folks fishing in Arkansas. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission just released their updated 2026 fishing guidebook with some major changes. The most notable shift is that Lake Monticello is now open to harvest after being under strict catch-and-release regulations. The lake was completely renovated after a drawdown in 2019, and it's been stocked heavily with forage and Florida bass. Anglers can now keep five largemouth bass per day with only one fish needing to be 16 inches or longer. The crappie fishing there is also supposed to be outstanding right now.

    For those trout fishermen out there who love working tailwaters, Arkansas made some adjustments too. Trout stocking took a hit due to flooding at the Jim Hinkle Spring River State Fish Hatchery and a major die-off at Norfork National Fish Hatchery. So they've tightened up the daily limits on trout in the Bull Shoals, Norfork, Greers Ferry, and Beaver tailwaters. You're looking at keeping two rainbow trout under 14 inches per day in most areas, with some variation depending on which section you're fishing.

    Looking ahead, the competitive scene is absolutely packed this year. The National Professional Fishing League's championship is coming up at Lewis Smith Lake in Alabama February 26th through the 28th, and they've got qualifying tournaments scheduled all summer long at some incredible destinations like the Harris Chain of Lakes in Florida and St. Lawrence River up in New York.

    Whether you're a competitive angler or just someone who loves getting out on the water with a rod in hand, there's never been a better time to chase bass across this country. The fish are biting, the tournaments are lined up, and new opportunities keep popping up. Get out there and wet a line.

    Thanks so much for tuning in today! Come back next week for more of the latest bass fishing news and action from across the nation. This has been Artificial Lure for Quiet Please. Head over to QuietPlease.AI to catch all our latest episodes. Tight lines, everyone!

  • Massive Bass Bonanza: Catch Record-Breaking Lunkers Across the U.S.

    Massive Bass Bonanza: Catch Record-Breaking Lunkers Across the U.S.
    2026/02/09
    Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, slingin' bass tales to you fly rod slingers who might wanna swap that delicate drift for a chunky topwater popper sometime. Bass fishing's been on fire across the US lately, with monsters showing up where least expected. Let's dive into the latest hooks.

    First off, Texas is straight-up dominating with the 2025 Toyota ShareLunker program, reports The Fishing Wire. Anglers dropped a record 1,071 lunker largemouths from 93 public lakes, including eight over 13 pounds in the Lew's Legend Class. The biggest? Cullie Belveal's 16.39-pounder from O.H. Ivie on April 2 – that's the 19th heaviest in Texas history, and get this, it was a recapture of a 16.65-pounder from 2023. Wild DNA twists too: Ross Gomez caught the same 14.78-pounder twice from Alan Henry, first time ever for one angler. Hot spots there? J.B. Thomas led with 442 entries, Lake Fork 104, Toledo Bend 89, O.H. Ivie 52. Texas Parks and Wildlife says these fat bass are fueling bigger stocks for '26 – submit via their app for a shot at prizes.

    Jumpin' east, Hank Cherry just snagged his first Bassmaster Elite win at Lake Guntersville, Alabama, per Bassmaster.com. The North Carolina pro totaled 88-11 over four days, capping it with a birthday bomb of 27-11 on a 3-inch chartreuse curly tail grub. Eight pros sacked over 24 pounds there, proving Guntersville's still a pig farm. Bassmaster Elite's kickin' off '26 strong with 101 pros chasing points.

    Down in Florida, MLF Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit Stop 1 at Harris Chain of Lakes saw Mount Carmel's Gill crush a 26-pound final-day limit on February 8 for $100k, says MajorLeagueFishing.com. Dude's 2-for-2 this season, keyin' on umbrella rigs for offshore suspenders in dirty water – three fish over 8 pounds all week. Lake Beauclair edges were gold.

    Out west, Clear Lake, California, is in late winter mode at 49-53 degree water temps, per WesternBass.com. Recent tourney winners sacked 45-47 pounds scoping mid-lake and Rattlesnake Arm, even with tough bites and some zeros. Big double-digit largemouths for mobile anglers.

    These hawgs are growin' fast, gettin' recaught, and tournaments are heatin' up nationwide. Imagine hookin' a 16-pounder on fly gear – pure adrenaline.
