Livesays culls with a 4-pounder

Lee Livesay has kept a frog rod in his hands almost exclusively four days in a row. And it’s paying off. Livesay culled a 2-pounder with a 4-pounder at 1:38.

“Finally, got a good one today,” Livesay said. “That’s a beautiful Chickamauga bass.”

The key to Livesay’s frog bite this week is staying shallow. He’s using a push pole to get in shallow areas, and he’s casting to matted vegetation that’s even shallower.

“That mat is in 10 inches of water,” said Livesay, after culling up another estimated 1/4- to 1/2- a pound with second bass where the 4-pounder came.
