The Grand Tour & Boat Dock Bass

Gary Dallahon gave Nathaniel and I the Grand Tour today. First we fished the Grand River for hard-hitting white bass, throwing Bobby Garland Stroll'Rs on Garland Mo-Glo jigheads. Little current was running, so the fish were widespread, with some tight to the banks and others out in the open water and close to the bottom. I managed to fool ten white bass, plus one tiny spotted bass.
In the afternoon we moved upriver to Lake Hudson, and impoundment of the Grand, where we targeted largemouths with the added direction of Tulsa pro Bobby Meyers. Nathaniel caught the best fish of the afternoon minutes after we launched and within sight of the ramp with a Sebile Crankster.
The Grand Tour actually began yesterday, when we fished Fort Gibson, another Grand River impoundment, with Tommy Biffle. Nathaniel almost managed the same trick there, hooking a fish that was probably close to five pounds, also on a Crankster, before we ever pulled the boat away from the loading dock. That one broke off at the boat.
