Greetings from Yamamoto Central!

Am I the only one taken by surprise that we're already 1/4 of the way through 2013? Honestly, I was still getting used to writing 2012. Time flies when there's fishin' to be done. The Tour Season is reaching it's mid-point and guy's are scrambling for AOY points. Veteran Elite Pro Bernie Schultz shares his latest endeavors at Bull Shoals with Rookie Elite Angler Kevin Hawk gives us some insight into the previous event at Falcon Lake down in Texas.

If you need something to do this weekend and you're anywhere close to the California Delta, you do not want to miss the 3rd Annual Yamamoto Big Bass Challenge. The latest reports show that big bass are moving up shallow doing that pre-spawn thing they do. Any cast with a Yamamoto or Kinami bait could win you up to $10,000! If you're not signed up to fish the event, no worries - they weigh-in every hour at Russo's Marina and it's an entertaining two days for all! For more information, head over to www.anglerspress.com and get all the details.

If the water's finally thawed out where you are, don't forget that jig-fishing is hot this time of year. Shane Beilue reminds us that while fishing technology is ever-evolving and producing some pretty radical techniques, the simple yet versatile jig is a consistent producer.

FLW Tour Pro Brett Hite shares why the shaky-head is a go-to rig in his tournament arsenal. Maybe tie one of those on this weekend as well!
