Welcome to Nerdy Bassin, where I dive into the world of kayak bass fishing and tournaments. I generally fish with NVKBA (Northern Virginia Kayak Bass Anglers, www.nvkba.com) which is Northern Virginia's premier kayak tournament fishing club. This club has a good mix of tournaments on lakes, tidal rivers and freshwater rivers, with a good mix of Largemouth and Smallmouth bass fisheries.
This channel will recap tournaments, give you helpful tips on fishing kayak tournaments, and tips and tricks for kayak setup and getting the most from your fishing kayak.
I fish primarily from an Old Town Autopilot 120, and also own an Old Town 106PDL.
My go-to techniques include jigs, drop shot, shaky head, chatterbaits and spinnerbaits.
I fish a lot of local Northern Virginia bodies of water including:
Potomac River
Occoquan Reservoir
Lake Anna
Lake Mooney
Shenandoah River
Upper Potomac River
Rappahannock River
