Long time lurker finally joining the site!


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I've been following the bass resource for years, but just never made an account for some reason. Finally signed up. LOL

I'm a high school senior (about to graduate!) from Mobile, Alabama. I've been fishing since I was old enough to hold a rod and reel. Being in an area that has a quick access to a ton of different types of water, I do a lot of different kinds of fishing. Bass, Inshore, Offshore, Surf, etc.. I got into the kayak game last spring and really enjoy that. I fish a lot of tournaments, build my own rods, and started my own outdoor themed youtube channel late last summer. The biggest largemouth I've ever weighed was 6-12 and 21.5", but I have caught 2 that were 22.5" that I didn't get to weigh, but I estimate they were probably about 7lbs. I've gained a ton of knowledge off this place over the years and decided to start contributing! Glad to be here!

I am not planning on going to college. I have actually turned down big scholarships that I had won bass fishing. I don't have any set long term plans, but I'm planning on working at my Dad's salvage yard some while building my brand in the outdoor industry at first. Probably going to start guiding (kayak and surf) in the fall. I may doing some work with a big tournament hosting company starting in the summer, but that isn't concrete yet. I've also considered working for my girlfriend's dad a couple years to learn some carpentry skills. I have a lot of different ideas and possibilities, but not many concrete plans at the moment. Just taking the next step and going to see where God leads me.

Not sure how much I'll help balance out the older guys. Most of my friends are at least 40. Some twice that. Most teenagers just frustrate me 😂

Great point, Jeff.

 

Hi, Micaiah. I like your career plan because you could make money being outside and I think acquiring carpentry skills is wise. 

 

The guys at Bass Resource catch big bass and are happy to share what they've learned.
