In this interview, Pete sits down with Bassmaster Elite Series angler Micah Frazier. Micah has a history of fishing southern impoundments like Lake Hartwell, and in the prespawn, fishing finesse crankbaits can be dynamite. Micah discusses how bass relate differently to the varying forage types, in lakes with blueback herring. With this technique, you're targeting the fish eating the forage that goes back in the creeks. Learn what baits Micah fishes, areas he targets, when he puts down the Shad Rap-style baits and when he picks up a Berkley Frittside crankbait.
