Living in "High School Days" Featuring Darren Evans
Hi my names Darren Evans and I am living in "High School Days". I reside in Southwest Missouri. I am truly living in the life of a fisherman. I am a senior at Willard High School, knowing that I am graduating in two months I am working towards a fishing career. Whether I fish local or national; I know this is God's gift to me. I have been fishing with my father ever since I can remember. When the time comes to fish I am there. I got started in a local bass club when in turned 16 and now starting my third year.

Truman State Collegiate Anglers Just Miss Going to FLW National ChampionshipI just got back from competing in the FLW National Guard College Fishing Central Regional on Kentucky Lake this past weekend. Our first practice day was greeted with cloudy skies and rain. We started in a creek arm down south and found plenty of fish but they were mainly short fish. We found schools of bass busting on windy points  and we could catch them on a variety of baits but they were mostly small. Working our way back in the creek, we found that the fish were really relating to the channel swing points. Whenever we would pull up on a set of docks or a point with the channel hitting it we would start getting bit. During practice it seemed like the keeper fish liked a spinnerbait over anything else. We had what appeared to be a couple of nice fish come off of docks and swirl on our spinnerbaits. As our practice day was coming to a close it started to rain and it would continue to rain the entire night.

Truman State University Finishes in 5th Place at Bull Shoals
This past weekend we kicked off the College Fishing season with Placing 5th out of 40 teams at the National Guard College Fishing Regional Qualifier at Bull Shoals Lake. The finish earned our Bass Club 1,000 dollars and our school another 1,000 as well as a birth to the National Guard College Fishing Regional Championship. We only weighed in two keepers that edged out the 6th place team by .01lbs. I don’t know whether to say that we were lucky or unlucky because our motor blew up after just 2 and a half hours of fishing which left us unable to run our pattern. I believe that we could have caught a couple more keepers if we had gotten to fish another 3 hours. We spent the last 3 hours of the day getting towed back to K Dock Marina. I am almost certain we could have won the tournament. Read more on 5th place finish... Truman State Collegiate Anglers Finishes 8th at Lake of the Ozarks

TigeRodz is proud to announce, the sponsorship of the University of Alabama Crimson Tide Bass Anglers Collegiate Fishing Team. This makes the second collegiate fishing team to sign a sponsorship agreement with TigeRodz. |
One of the hottest techniques across the tournament trail is wacky jig fishing. The technique has been more of a sleeper than other popular finesse fishing techniques but one thing is certain if you haven't tried this rig you need to because it will put more bass into your boat now!
I just got back from competing in the FLW National Guard College fishing tournament at Lake of the Ozarks. The Lake had a lot of fishing pressure with the Stren Series and the Big Bass Bash being held over the weekend. The fishing was pretty tough.
