Hello, everyone! Today, we've got some challenges for fishing. The wind forecast was for 3-4 mph and it's really more like 5-10+ mph. To me, those are completely different forecasts not just in terms of weather, but in terms of gear that I've brought with me. And, I've only got my BFS & light spinning gear with me, so I've got to make this work somehow. So, come along with me, as I head out onto the lake, adjust on the fly to changing weather forecasts, & catch a bunch of bass in the process.
