For many anglers,

once the calendar hits May, one thing is on their mind when they are in search of catching bass and that is vegetation, specifically the new lily pads that grow in many lakes and rivers. There are several reasons that lily pads play such a key role in bass habitat, the first is that they provide bass with cover, both from the sunlight shining into the water, and also it provides them with an ambush point to feed, which leads into my second point.

being able to enjoy nature’s gifts and spending time with family and friends are the keys to a memorable hunt. For many years, the enjoyment, fulfillment and overall emotions of that day are shared through photographs and the memories of the people that experienced it.

Throughout my childhood, my dad and I put on some miles creating thousands of memories that we both will always cherish and never forget. Besides having the memories, we would always end with a photograph. Continue Reading →
