Clara is a hammer. No two ways about it. She came with some seriously interesting conversation and an intriguing report after her and Alex's win at Don Pedro. JR Wright is a good ol' boy with some info on Oroville and insight into other lakes. Big thanks to Nick for stepping up and rounding out the show with some Delta knowledge. It never ceases to amaze us how awesome people are in this community. Just when you think you've heard it all, you definitely haven't.

Miracles do happen. The mood from the last episode to this one is stark, and beautiful. Diana returns to us in unbelievable fashion and we talk about her ongoing recovery. We had some great people call in and ask questions and just reveled in how awesome it is that we still have her. We also got the chance to chat with Luke Johns about his top 5 finish at the inaugural Western Bass Shootout, and our guy Mark Cobey helped us out with a report on Clear Lake and Berryessa. We are happy to be back!

Diana Cook needs our prayers and support. Christian or otherwise, send some healing love towards this beautiful soul.

Merry Christmas TBR listeners! In this year's final episode we're joined by WWBT/Apex angler Colby Pearson. We talk finesse, we talk big swimbaits, we have a good time. Thanks for listening this year and best wishes to you in the New Year!
-
Hard to beat Juan Acosta talking Delta fishing in the winter. Throw in some forward-facing sonar discussion and you have a good conversation. On top of all that, the Motherlode is in fine form this winter. Go out and catch 'em!

What was gonna be a quick Q&A on lithium batteries turned into a full-fledged, good ol' fashioned TBR episode! Big thanks to Tanner for joining us. Not only did we get some great info on lithiums, but we ended up talking Delta fishing with him as well. Hope you all enjoy and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
-
Big thanks to Austin for joining us and talking shop. Dude knows more about fishing than a dozen keyboard pirates.

Joel Chin is an enigma, wrapped in a mystery, shrouded in a dude who loves people. And he lives it. But, he also loves bass fishing. We had ourselves a good time talking to a man that defies the standard of what a bass fisherman should/would/could be. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did talking to him.
-
We head to SoCal in this one to talk to long-time friend of the show Fred Klinshaw and fishy fly-freak Joey Camacho. If you've ever been fly-curious, this one might push you over the edge.
-
Tony has been a California stick for quite a bit. He had a year of PBs of the smallie kind during tournaments. We thought that was pretty cool, and it turns out Tony is pretty interesting. Not only is he interesting, but he has a lot of great info to share, and he's willing to share it with kids that are interested in the sport. Tony is the real deal.

This is the second time we've had Shan on the podcast and thanks to Ryan Cook it was better than the first. You might know him better as @aquatic_biologist on Instagram. Some of the things he says are hard to swallow, like lead weights. But, it's based on science, not opinion or feelings. We hope this is educational, and if it makes you uncomfortable, find a safe space. #dontcheat

"Absolutely beside myself." Quote from Hunter Baughman, a bass fisherman from Arkansas after winning a Toyota Series MLF event at Truman Lake. Most of us would be beside ourselves with a win that big. He knows how to fish a jig, and explains it. He may be physically impaired, but he'll still catch more and bigger fish than you! He's a hammer and has some great knowledge to share. Thanks, Hunter!

Wild West Bass Trail Duel on the Delta is serious. Maybe because it has big fish. Maybe because it's incredibly difficult. Maybe because it's not your average bass fishery.... enter a sea lion! It isn't normal, It isn't easy, the rest of the U.S. doesn't realize how difficult this fishery can be. Alex Klein knew this coming in, found a place near him to practice, and then he put himself in a position to win against the best. If you like underdog stories, listen up.

Gary is the guy you want to go fishing with. He won't show up late, hungover or distracted. He's been a mid-Valley staple big fish catcher and tourney winner for years. Gary is a winner. Be like Gary.
-
The youngest WWBT AOY ever. If you don't understand the acronyms, no worries. Luke explains how he went from starting a high school bass club to out-foxing the best in the west. Storytelling is a thing we like very much, and Luke is good at it. Sit back and listen to a young dude tell a story of winning. You can do it, too.

Local Delta guy starting a new Saturday night derb? Sweet! Let's talk to him. And talk we did. Andy Doudna is one of the most knowledgeable guys you'll meet when it comes to Delta wildlife issues. He's been fishing the Dirty D for years, but not always for the green ones. In just the last four years he's solidified himself as one of the dudes to look out for when it comes to River largemouth. We were blown away by the conversation! We hope you are too.
-
After a great trip on Champlain with our own Ryan Cook, Upstate New York native stick Ryan Latinville joined us to talk smallies. We discussed differences in fishing tactics between right and left coast, as well as tackle that transcends geography. Big thanks to Ryan for the time!

MLF Tackle Warehouse Pro Circuit Rookie Phil Dutra joined us to talk about his philosophy on fishing, competing at the top level on the the west coast, a move to Guntersville, and a life chasing bass across the Eastern United States.
