Quotes
“Those guys already in the Classics don’t know who I am right now. But come March, I want them to show them what I can do.”
“When Wendell and I got down here, we decided we were gonna’ fish exclusively offshore. We idled every inch of Lake Eustis and Harris and Little Harris in practice and we found the spot. We actually couldn’t get them to bite at practice, so that’s why we want back over to Eustis on Day 1 of the Team Championship.”
"When we only caught 11 pounds in Eustis, we knew we had to make a change. If we were going to die, we were going to die doing what we do well, and that’s fishing offshore. So, we went back to that hard spot and pulled out some big swimbaits, a big spinnerbait, and a big crankbait. We went to work on them.”
“This is very special. I’m just your ordinary working man. I represent every common man and that’s who I’m going to be fishing for in the Classic.”
“I was fishing the mid-section of Kentucky Lake – from the Blood River to the Highway 68 Bridge. I didn’t catch a whole lot of fish Saturday – probably seven keepers. The high water had the schools busted up.”
“My key baits on Saturday were a Blue and Chartreuse-colored Strike King 5XD crankbait and an Ole Smokey- or Natural Light-colored Scottsboro Tackle swimbait. My rod setup included a Lew’s 7-foot, 6-inch Custom Pro Mark Rose Ledge Casting rod with a Lew’s Wide Spool Super Duty Casting reel.”
“I was just fishing points at the mouths of the bays, where the fish would come to after they spawned. I think the lake is about a month behind, and a lot of them are just now getting done.”
“On Sunday, I returned to a couple of spots that I fished Saturday, but they didn’t produce. I went searching and found a couple of small schools around the mouth of Jonathan Creek. I again fished the Scottsboro Tackle swimbaits but caught the majority of my fish on a Texas-rigged, green-pumpkin-colored Strike King KVD Perfect Plastic Bullworm. I caught around 10 keepers Sunday.”
“My fish were all largemouth this weekend. I just had to keep an open mind and not get too stuck on where I’d been catching them. The fish are moving a lot with the rising water."

Matthew Robertson –Profession
Matthew Robertson is an angler and an expert boat navigator by profession. Matt the Bassmaster Angler makes regular appearances in local and national fishing tournaments.
Bass angling is an on-hand and engaging water sport. Math needs to look out for telltale signs for spots where the best and the largest bass bites. Matt fished in grass beds and shorelines throughout the Harris Chain and numerous other lakes- a normal strategy for this fishery.
On a fishing trip, Matt selects his fishing site- some, 150 yards offshore in about 9 to 10 feet of water with no visible structure- just a hard spot on the lake’s bottom with underwater visibility measuring 40 by 50 yards.
Then he waits patiently for a long, long time. On the conscious level, he idles over his catch, all the while checking the electronics that are strapped on his boat. When his monitor flashes a bass, he immediately sizes up the bass and sets out the bait.
