That’s because there has never been a big-time bass tournament on Oahe before. No one had experience so they all were fishing it for the first time. Mark Daniels, Jr. proved exactly how good he was on this tough lake by winning it and cashing a six-figure check. Listen to MDJ tell you all about it.

Slop fishing, frog fishing, call it what you will. We are talking about hauling in big bass through heavy cover. It’s not a technique for the timid.
