Denny Brauer accompanies Kim on Lake Amistad, where the bass have migrated shallow; however, the influence of a passing cold front presents a challenge as the two seasoned anglers pitch the bushes with a Rage Bug.
Although regarded as a nuisance to recreational boaters, Eurasian Milfoil provides a preferred habitat for largemouth bass; power-fishing with stout gear is a reputable method to catch them out of thick vegetation as Kim validates.
Kim demonstrates the virtues of a Strike King KVD Deep 1.5 Crankbait along weed edges. Once the bass are located, he follows up with a Swinging Swim Jig. As customary, he provides visual confirmation of the pattern from the lake bottom.
Kim returns to Cheyenne Ridge Signature Lodge on South Dakota's scenic Lake Oahe to target transient post-spawn smallmouth bass.
Local guide Marcel Veenstra accompanies Kim to Indian River, Mich., for giant smallmouths; with the fall feed on, Strike King's Tour Grade Titanium Umbrella Rig pays off in a big way.
