Welcome to TheReelBasstard 🎣 
Documenting my real-time fishing progression across Southern California. I chase largemouth bass in freshwater and target halibut, surf perch, spotted sand bass, croaker, and other species in the saltwater. From lakes, ponds, and dams to beaches, jetties, bays, and harbor structure, every trip is about learning, exploring new spots, and improving each session.

I fish with drop shot, Texas, Carolina, hi-lo, swimbaits, jerkbaits, and Gulp plastics while adapting to the conditions and whatever the day throws at me.

You'll also find kayak fishing from my Ascend 10T, along with shore, surf, and jetty fishing adventures.

Filmed with my GoPro HERO13 Black, Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, and iPhone support angles. No shortcuts — just real fishing, real catches, missed opportunities, and steady progression.
