Where Are We Fishing In 2022???

Are we coming to a lake near you? 2022 is going to be an awesome year! We can't wait to start catching fish and we can't wait to start hearing about all your successes both on and off the water. We're excited about what the future holds and thankful that you're coming on the journey with us!

Do you want to catch a giant fish this year? Perhaps you want to learn a new technique? The new year is a great time to set goals and create a plan to achieve them. Anglers who set goals are far more likely to be successful in 2022 than those who don't. We highly recommend you take the time to comment below with your goals. The entire Tactical family is here to help you achieve them.

In 2021 we met about half of our personal goals. We were blessed to catch some giant fish, we had some near misses with world class fish, and we were able to travel to a ton of new locations. For 2022 we're doubling down our efforts and hunting for even bigger fish in even more places!

If you're just learning about TacticalBassin, or perhaps you just want to look back at the highlights from the past year, here were some of our favorite videos as well as the exact bait that giant striper ate.

Matt's Cancer Surgery Positive Update

2020 was a brutal year for all of us! Matt and Tim both visit the dermatologist on a regular basis because of the amount of sun exposure they receive each year. After a clean bill of health early in 2020 Matt noticed a small spot on his cheek by late Summer. When it didn't go away, he went to see the dermatologist. Sure enough, it was cancer. To be more specific, it was a Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Now for the good news, Matt is back to being cancer free! They found the spot before it metastasized (spread). He had a Mohs surgery done in Mid-December and is ready to get back on the water. We don't tell you about his situation looking for pity, we tell you because we want you to take care of yourself! Many anglers don't take skin cancer seriously and it takes a shock close to home to shake them up. We hope that Matt's brush with cancer is close enough to get you to take it seriously!

When it comes to skin cancer, its not always obvious. Sure, it could be a big spot on your face that changes color and can't be ignored. It could be a mole that suddenly changes size, shape, or color. But its much more likely it will be a scab that doesn't go away, or even just a dry patch where you skin has a sandpaper-like feel.

No matter how it appears, "different" on your skin is not a good sign and you need to see a dermatologist. Skin cancers are very treatable when you find them early but extremely deadly when you wait. If you're been wondering, its time to go in. Let Matt's story encourage you to do the right thing and take care of yourself while there is still time. For the younger anglers, take the time to cover up now, it will save you a lot of pain later.

Below, we've linked a variety of sun garments that will help protect you from the sun. From long sleeve sun shirts that are incredibly cool, even in the Summer, to masks and gloves. Take it seriously and cover up so you don't have to go down this rough road later. We've also included the names of a handful of tinted zinc-based sunscreens that will add another layer of protection between you and the sun's rays.

Are We Fishing Your Lake In 2021?!

The New Year is here and we're getting back on the road! 2020 was crazy for all of us. Some lost loved ones, others lost jobs, some found human kindness where it was least expected, and a few stuck some big fish in the midst of the chaos. What does 2021 hold for TacticalBassin? Let's find out!

We're getting back out on the road in 2021. Living in a new part of the country, we've got all kinds of new goals. From big bass, to big striper and musky, the options are almost endless. We have plans to fish across the South, put more time into Florida, and even fish our way up the Eastern seaboard. If we've never been to a lake near you before, you just might see us this year!

What are your goals for 2021? The key to consistent success is goal setting. Plan for success, follow through, and you will find success. Maybe you want to catch a new personal best? Maybe you want to master a technique? Whatever it is, leave a comment and let us know your goals because putting them into writing will increase your chances of success dramatically.

In case you missed some of our content in 2020, here were a handful of our favorite videos, starting with yesterday's teaser video from Guyana.

We're Moving! Huge News!! (Not Click Bait)

We're moving! Clearlake has been an amazing home lake but its time for a change! Where are we headed? Why are we moving? Find out the details! We've spent several years scouring the country in search of a new home that would balance family, fishing, and life. It was a very tough decision but we're thrilled with our choice!

After nearly 25,000 miles on the road over 4 road trips we scratched dozens of places off our list. We narrowed the search down to Tennessee after discovering it had the perfect balance of quality of life for our families and quality of fisheries. After an extensive search we settled on Lake Chickamauga near Chattanooga as our new home lake. We're thrilled to head out on this new journey and look forward to bringing you along for the ride. We'll be exploring new waters, learning new techniques, and taking you along for all of it! We can't wait to pit ourselves against some of the greatest fisheries in the country and break them down with a Tactical perspective.

To the anglers in California, we'll still see you regularly. We've already got trips planned back home and will continue to fish and film on local fisheries on a regular basis. To the angler's in corners of the country we've yet to visit, your turn is coming! Now you know why we've been so focused in the midwest. Once we've settled into our new homes we'll get right back on the road to visit a fishery near you!

This is a huge transition for all of us and we're so thankful to take you along for the ride! Its easy to look back now at previous videos and see that we were searching. Check out a few of the videos that were filmed on lakes we were considering as we traveled around the country in search of a new home.
