I have always been someone to appreciate good knowledge and understanding. Experience is a crucial characteristic of success, but for most of us, we do not have much experience on the Devils River so how do we gain the upper hand without experience. Well, there isn't an easy way, but the best way is through research and gaining as much knowledge over the Devils River as possible. Many of you are probably thinking at this point, "Where do I start?" Well, with all of the technology that sorrounds us today, the internet is the best option.

There's a wide variety of crankbaits out on the market today, but few actually make it into my arsenal of divers. For the water that I typically fish, I tend to be in less than 8 ft. of water, so the idea of having a large profile crankbait that dives to 16 ft. is pretty ridiculous. On the other hand, you can still have a large profile crankbait that goes shallow. The Strike King KVD Square Bill crankbait is just that.

There are many rivers in Texas that I have fished, but quite possibly the most productive is the Llano River. Nearly every time I have travelled to the Llano River I have ended up with a couple of nice bass, and this was no exception. I was especially excited to travel to the Llano River just south of Mason, Texas, as I had never fished this stretch of water, and I had a new fishing pole to try out. I recently noticed a 5' 6" light action spinning rod at a sporting goods store that seemed to be quite on sale. The combo was a Mitchell 300 series combo that I had a Mitchell 310 spinning reel attached to a nice 5' 6" light action rod. Typically, this combo retails for $69.99, but I found it on sale for $34.99. Quite a steal.
