Smallmouth Bass Fishing Jigging with Scott Lewis
In our cosmic journey through life, we often find wisdom and wonder in the most unexpected corners. On the cool, rippling waters of Eastern Tennessee, a humble fisherman and biologist, Scott Lewis, offers a gateway into a new frontier: the world of smallmouth bass fishing.
Just as we are but humble travelers in the grand cosmic expanse, the smallmouth bass is a voyager on these freshwater highways. Lewis, our terrestrial explorer, submerges himself in the river's lifeblood, using his snorkel as an observatory to learn from these waterborne travelers. Like a meticulous observer of celestial bodies, he studies the local aquatic ecology: the diverse fish species, the behavior of freshwater crustaceans, the varied insect life - all form part of his celestial chart to understand the ways of the smallmouth bass.

But, there's more than just picking the best bait for smallmouth bass. A river, like the universe, is ever-changing, evolving with the water flow influenced by the man-made celestial bodies we call dams. To Lewis, understanding the effects of these water levels on the behavior of the smallmouth bass is akin to understanding the gravitational dance of planets. It's this insight that gives him—and could give you—a massive advantage when it comes to smallmouth bass fishing.
Using tube jigs to navigate the swirling waters, Lewis shows us how to present these lures in the heart of the river's activity, near shoals or ledge areas. His approach, refined by years of practice, includes invaluable angling techniques to avoid getting snagged among the rocky riverbeds and reach the best fishing spots.
His journey continues downstream, revealing the prime habitats for bass - ledges, seams where fast water meets slow, the bottom ends of islands, and slack water eddies. With every cast, Lewis reveals secrets of boat positioning, presentation theories, and common mistakes to avoid, all while sharing his profound appreciation for this vibrant, aquatic ecosystem.
