I’m still new at this saltwater fishing thing and I know I have a lot more to learn and experience, but the first time I hooked into a school of white sea bass will be one to remember!

Swift river bass are known to be tough customers and fast fighters.  But the Coosa River bass are not the only ones who earn that reputation.  A recent trip to fish the BASS Nation Western Divisional was a lesson in river bass fishing in combat conditions, literally gunnel-to-gunnel with other boats.
