Decades of fishing.
No boat required.
Bass Fishing Reels is built on real experience — from streams and rivers in small-town Michigan to shorelines and piers across the state. If you fish from the bank, you’re in the right place.
I started fishing as a kid — neighborhood streams, a river through the center of town, weekends on the lakes at Yankee Springs with my dad. These days, physical limitations keep me off the boat, but they haven’t kept me off the water. Shore and pier fishing has its own set of skills, and I’ve spent a long time figuring them out.
This site is where I put that knowledge to use. Techniques that actually work from the bank, gear reviews without the sponsored fluff, and a place where anglers can share what they know. I pass it on to my grandkids — figured I’d pass it on here too.
