We’re about to talk about a fish that’s olive-green with dark blotches that form a stripe along their side.  Its lower jaw protrudes forward & upward with a mouth that opens wide to take in the bait fish, scuds, bream, & other fish.  That mouth opening is where it gains its name, The LARGEMOUTH BASS.

Christian Giglia has grown up fishing the sunny south & the Carolinas.  From the bass ponds of the golf course to the area lakes from the Carolina coast inland to the piedmont, Giglia spoke to host Bill Bartee about bass fishing in the summer.

Show Highlights:
