More Than Fishing | The Dylan Kyle Poche Memorial Bass Tournament
Easily one of the darkest hours in Louisiana fishing has lead to one of the brightest. The Dylan Kyle Poche Memorial Bass Tournament that’s held every spring at Cypress Bend on Toledo Bend is special. This event has turned into one of the best fundraisers on the water and for good reason. The efforts that … Continue reading
Bassin’ with George….or John Brown?
My fishing buddy George and I hit Lake D’Arbonne in search of summertime largemouth bass a couple of days ago. Anybody can catch fish on topwaters at daylight or on a worm right before dark, so we weren’t challenged by that. So we went at 2 p.m. in the middle of August in an East … Continue reading

One that has is pro angler Greg “Hack” Hackney of Gonzales, who for a few years, lived in our backyard over in Oak Ridge in Morehouse Parish. … Continue reading
