If you are a hard-core angler, you have come to the right place. This is a weekly podcast that will interview some of the top local and regional anglers in North America. Anglers who consistency finish near the top in both Largemouth and Smallmouth bass fishing tournaments. Travis and his guest will discuss techniques and strategies used to help these anglers stay so consistent and help you become a better angler and gain an edge on your body of water. 

This interview I chat with Jim Barczak who lives in Wisconsin.  He has a great track record fishing tournaments and dominates the waters of NE Wisconsin.  He moved to the western part of the state and fished a lot of Minnesota waters now.  He talks about some of his favorite techniques to fish those MN lakes and goes into great detail some of his secrets to getting on fish!

Who is SmallmouthCrush?

Travis Manson was born and raised in Wisconsin. He started fishing from the bank at a young age and spent most of his childhood with a rod in his hand.  Travis is primarily a self-taught angler that is always learning and experiencing this amazing sport of fishing.  He started out fishing for walleyes and fishing in local walleye tournaments, but then in his mid 20's, he caught the BASS BUG and has been hooked ever since.  He competed at the highest level in bass fishing on the Bassmaster Elite Series for a number of years.  He is a full time fishing guide offering trips on the Chesapeake Bay for largemouth bass(year round) and trophy smallmouth bass guided trips in Upstate New York on Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence River. His Youtube Channel is named after his passion for the smallmouth bass and will be used as a platform for "how-to" videos, on the water instruction, crazy on and off the water topics on the day in the life of a fishing addict!  Hope you enjoy, and until next time we will see you on the water!
