Thom Abraham’s Pick ‘Em picks – Pasquotank River
Last time out, I said I needed a winning week to get the T-H Marine Pick ‘Em contest pointed back in the right direction for me. I guess I needed to...
Fantasy Fishing: Pasquotank rebooted
If anglers want to fish the Roanoke or Chowan rivers, they will need to make decently long runs, so wind can be a giant factor in this event.
Fantasy Fishing: Power fishing at the Pasquotank
Not many a winning weight of 118 pounds, 12 ounces on their bingo cards ahead of the event a year ago, but it goes to show the quality of bass that live in this body of water.
Fantasy Fishing: Don’t expect a repeat
Last year the Elites made their first visit to the Pasquotank River on the Albemarle Sound and it’s almost entirely memorable because it became a Kyle Welcher blowout.
Fantasy Fishing: Big water, bigger decisions
Last year the Pasquotank River put on quite a show during the Elite Series’ first visit to the area.
Thom Abraham’s Pick ‘Em Picks: Santee Cooper Lakes
So he we go, the beginning of a huge second half turnaround for T-H Marine Bassmaster Pick 'Em Challenge!
Fantasy Fishing: Quality over quantity at Santee
Santee Cooper is well known for its propensity for giant bass and eye popping 30 lb+ five bass limits over the years.
Fantasy Fishing: Heavy hitters at Santee
After a thrilling heavyweight battle at Lake Murray, Santee could deliver even more excitement.
Fantasy Fishing: Shallow water angler’s time to shine on Santee
Forward-facing sonar is not allowed at Santee Cooper, so this could give shallow water anglers an advantage.
