For this episode, we have my brotha from another motha, fellow basstronaut, owner of Vocelka Fishing & Customs, The Harbor Tattoo Studio, AND now the proud owner of the Classic Bass Champions Tour...Mr. Dane Vocelka...Mono-E-Mono. I'm very grateful for this dude, and proud, as he's doing big things! Cheers, enjoy, and don't forget to check out his rod selection.

This was an extra special time with the legendary Japanese bass hammer, Kenta Kimura, and Bassmaster Opens Pro, Brad Leuthner. As a fisherman and tackle junkie, I've always wanted to pick Kenta's brain. He's been a major influence in the industry, designing tackle, and being a bridge for many techniques we now know today. It's really cool when you get 3 fishing/tackle crackheads in a room together and mix cultures and perspectives. Brad Leuthner is a master chef in the kitchen when it comes to tackle, especially hair jigs. Not only that, he lines this whole podcast up (knowing I'm a huge Kenta & JDM fan!) Thank you Brad & thank you Kenta! Enjoy as we talk everything bass fishing, including JDM vs. US fishing culture, JDM techniques like the Hideup Coike Field Side Dice and more...hair jigs, crawfish, steak, and eating horse. This one was extra juicy. Enjoy!Get your Kenta approved JDM tackle today at Thorne BrosLooking to up your game in a certain area?

Bassmaster Opens Pro, BM Classic Runner Up, and world class fishing guide, Adam Rasmussen, joined us for a bassin' chat. I invited Thorne Bros own, Luke Ronnestrand, to co-host as he's not only a world class Musky guide, but also a Sturgeon Bay hammer who ties some deadly marabou jigs. It's always cool when you can get basstronaut minds like this in one room and we had a great time! Lots of nuggets in this one.

It was great sitting down and chatting with the absolute hammer known as Emil Wagner. GA native, and guide on Lanier, Emil has not only proven he's one of the best to put his boat in any herring fishery, but any body of water for that matter. He recently dominated his way through the Bassmaster Opens gauntlet, and is now a Bassmaster Elite Series Pro.

Good friends: Hayden Anderson, Johnston Westmoreland, Damien Luchterhand, & Harrison Nelson made the trek down for an epic boys weekend. These guys can flat out catch em, and proved it last season against the best in MN. Johnston & Harrison didn't miss all year and clinched TOY, beating out 70 other teams. Hayden & Damien sealed the deal with a big win on Gull Lake. Always great catching up with these dudes.

We are joined by friend and lethal basstronaut Kyle Schutta for this episode. If you live in MN, you probably know about this dude, some of his accomplishments, and his dominance on the Classic Bass Champions Tour. In 2024, he not only won AOY, but also won the championship and a brand new Skeeter boat. A unique twist for our show as this is the first episode we've recorded in an ice house on the water up at Mille Lacs. Always good catching up with this dude. Congrats on a great year Kyle Schutta!

Enjoy, as we talk everything bass fishing, new tackle ventures, the new Vexus VXS20 he's running, and more.Brought you by Thorne BrosBrought to you by Vocelka Fishing & Customs

Been meaning to record one with Bassmaster Elite Series Pro, Austin Felix, for a while. We finally made it happen and let's just say he does not disappoint. This is a dude who's proven himself as one of the best in the country at catching bass, but most people don't know the man behind the hooksets. Enjoy the raw, real nature of this conversation with a mad scientist as we have a few glasses of whiskey, and blastoff to the depths of tournament bass fishing, tools of the trade, and quiet spells unknown to the Muggle world. For Griffindor. Thank you.

To kick off Season 4, we are joined by Elite Series Pro Bob Downey & Nate Nipper. These are two humble but deadly dudes that let their rods do the talking. One is on the Elite Series, and the other is a local/regional hammer who is also head of R&D for All-Terrain Tackle. Some of my favorite basstronauts in the Galaxy to drink some Old Fashions with, and catch up on all things bass fishing.

I travelled down to meet with the dangerous bass mob of MN's southern region. These 3 guys bring a unique perspective due to difference in age & fishing style. Big-Fish Timmy Schroeder, the Waseca mob boss, brings a lifetime of tournament experience & success in every ring he's thrown his hat into, and wields immense power from spinnerbait to spinning pole. Along with the mob boss, who's far from an "old bull", we were also graced with the presence of the young calf, Walker Krampitz, coming off another "Gilmore Check" season. (Sky)Walker, has shown the galaxy that he's a deadly assassin poised for greatness, securing yet another Champions Tour Victory (2 Seasons, 6 regular season events, & 2 Big wins). Yet the episode wouldn't be complete without the mobs deadliest hitman, & heir to the swamp throne: Noah Schultz, who's proven he's the most dangerous angler North of the Mason-Dixon. It's not everyday you get 3 members of the mob on one show, but agreements were met and we had us a "T.I.M.E." as mob boss Timmy Shroeder would say. Huge Shoutout and Thank you to Noah & Jenna Schultz for the hospitality. Great people, geat conversations & stories...Cheers & Enjoy. Brought to you by Waypoint Angler Supply.

Every year, myself and close buddies from college take a trip called "Battle of the Hogs" up to Jutty's cabin. It's one of few traditions that's we've kept going now almost a decade. This is a trip I always look forward to. Seeing the boys, sharing stories, engaging in semi-harmless shenanigans, and reliving our younger days is exactly what I look forward to...oh, and the fishing is a glorious bonus everytime. Here's a peak into this brotherly tradition of slight savagery and controlled debauchery. Thank you and cheers to another with these legendary gents: Mr. Dane Vocelka (Buy his rods), JP (Single), Pineur (Taken), & Beck (BECK!). Thank you Jutt for having us another year. Cheers. Enjoy.

For this episode, we are joined once again by good friend and currently the most dangerous angler in the galaxy, Easton Fothergill, AKA Gill-Daddy. Easton just finished his first season on the Bassmaster Opens and not only succeeded, but shattered records, winning two events, winning AOY & Elite Birth, PLUS over $200K in winnings.

Had a great time talking everything from tournament history, tackles stores, and always great stories. Dean Capra is fresh off a great season, winning the Champions Tour on Gull Lake, and locking up Team Of The Year on Tonka with his partner Aaron Larson.

For this episode, I was very grateful to meet up with two bass fishing legends on the shores of the Mississippi, Mike McClelland & Brett Hite. We had a great conversation talking everything bass fishing. The stories these two have from a careers worth of professional fishing experience (filled with accomplishments most only dream to accomplish) was priceless, especially being someone who's looked up to these two since I was a kid.

It's no secret that Hunter Wendt has had a season to remember. With back to back wins to kick off the season, he's a young hammer who's proven he can flat out catch ‘em. Before the gull lake event, traveling partners Dane, James, and myself head over to the Wendt residence for an amazing home cooked meal from Mrs. Wendt, and some quality bassin' time with bassin' friends: Hunter Wendt, Lyal Held, & Tommy Parker.

Fishing DeGENS highlights the most authentic anglers in their true form. In DeGENS 3, we are joined by my Bass Bro & Co-Host JP (Justin Pinkerton) for an intergalactic fishing convo with die-hard, multi-species hammer, Hays Baldwin. If you haven't heard of Hays Baldwin, he's a full time multi-species fishing guide on Lake Vermillion. What separates Hays from your average guide is his "full creature imersion" fishing style. This style isn't complicated, but it does involve great sacrifice. Specifically, this fishing style involves selling your soul to mother nature herself. On top of that, Hays is a great dude, full of awesome stories. Really enjoyed this one. Follow Hays Baldwin on Instagram @hays.baldwin and book him for a trip if you want a good time.

Fothergill is back for a one on one in-depth intergalactic bassin' conversation. In case you've been living in a brushpile, Gill-Daddy is currently leading the AOY OpensEQ Points going into the northern swing coming off a huge win on Lake Eufala. Easton's story is unique among all anglers that hail from MN. Aside from his reputation for being a wizard with electronics & a spinning pole; the key difference between him & his predecessors is his dominance away from home in the southern territory.

Was fortunate to spend some time talking with someone I've looked up to ever since I got started in the boat business. A lot of people may not know this, but this is Forest L. Wood's Grandson, Keith Daffron, who's taken the reigns to carry on his grandfather's legacy of building the highest quality fishing boats. On top of leading the charge at Vexus Boats, Keith is a bass fisherman at heart, competing in local team events (qualifying for multiple national championships), but he's also a husband, father, and ranches cattle with his brother on the side. On top of being your good ol boy from Arkansas, Keith is a great speaker, leader, and notably a great storyteller. Enjoy, as we talk about everything from old Ranger Forest L. Wood stories, to Bass Fishing, Cattle Ranching, & Vexus Boats. Thank you Keith!

For this episode (recorded at the 2024 Bassmaster Classic Expo), I was fortunate to sit down with the Godfather of Fishing Podcasts, Host of Stray Casts, the Sultan of Swinging Bass in on the boat flip, and someone I've always looked up to in the bassin' world...Pat Renwick. This is a guy who has been doing media in the bass world longer than most, talked to more pros than most, and is on a spiritual extra dimension in the bass cosmos. But Pat Renwick is more than just the Godfather of Fishing Podcasts, he's also a Rockstar who, in his prime, was one of the biggest rockstars to hit the Chicago region. When galaxies collide, you never know what's going to happen...

This was an extra special time with a true legend. This is someone I've looked up to for quite some time, and boasts experience and wisdom most would dream of. Randy Hopper is the CEO of Vexus Boats, which manufactures premium fiberglass and aluminum bass boats in Flippin, Arkansas. Hopper is known as a master when it comes to building fishing boats, and you'll find no one alive today with more experience & success doing it. Vexus opened the doors to its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in August 2017. Less than a year later, they were already shipping aluminum boats to a newly-created network of Vexus bass boat dealers. Prior to his current role with Vexus, Randy served a number of leadership positions at Ranger Boats. He joined the company during its startup days in 1968 and went on to serve as plant manager, VP Manufacturing, VP Engineering, and, finally, CEO. Thank you Randy.

Rich Lindgren (digital alias: Hellabass) joins us in the Bass Galaxy lair to have a high-level, intergalactic conversation exploring all aspects of basstrology and more. Rich (Hellabass) has been competing in Bass tournaments in MN and beyond for two decades. He is known for his BASS nation resume. Not qualifying through the state tournament is less-common for Rich than qualifying, as he's punched more tickets to regionals & nationals than anyone I know. He's also well known as a Youtube star. He hosts a live show, podcast, & does YouTube videos. One browse through the HellaBass channel is enough to know that Rich is an entire encyclopedia of educational bass fishing content. Had a blast as usual talking fishing, artificial intelligence, fishing tech, business, balsa cranks, lures, boats, and more. Enjoy. Brought to you by Waypoint Angler Supply.

Professional Bass Angler Jared Lintner joins the galaxy for an epic bassin convo. If you don't know Jared Lintner, he's a world-class angler with a world-class mustache, coming off a great finish in the country's first ever non-scoping/ffs tournament. We recorded this during the bassmaster classic in Tulsa, OK. Grateful for Jared & his time, great stories, deep fishing nuggets, and a mustache that commands authority no matter the longitudinal plane. Thank you, & enjoy.

Bryan New is now fishing his 4th season on the Bassmaster Elite Series and has proven his abilities as an angler. He is a threat of versatility no matter the body of water. Notably, he is 1 of 2 anglers on planet earth to win his first ever Elite Series Event. After recent news, I want to share my last conversation with him (which we recorded at the Bassmaster Classic) as soon as possible. I encourage you to open your mind as a basstronaut, and soar into a new dimension with good friend/co-host Cody Rothstein, Elite Pro Bryan New, and myself as we embark on an intergalactic bassin' conversation talking everything from snakes & singing in the truck, lie detectors & cheating, all the way to tackle tweaks & tournament tactics. Bryan New, we had a blast! Thank you again. Brought to you by Waypoint Angler Supply. The premier specialty tackle shop in the Upper Midwest.

Made a trip to Mecca aka Waypoint Angler Supply to talk new JDM tackle, bass fishing, and everything else. Enjoy.

In this episode, we test out the new traveling space station by doing a podcast while my friend Matt Waldron gets a new tattoo from Dane Vocelka. If you hear a buzzing sound, it's not the bug hatches we will ironically be discussing. Matt Waldron stars in the hit YouTube series “The Crappie Chronicles” and is well know as an expert when it comes to chasing big panfish through the ice; however, some people may not know Matt's deep understanding of electronics, bugs, bass, and weather. We dive into all of it, including some tournament stories. You know Dane Vocelka, he's a world class rod builder, and a world class tattoo artist.

We've got some of the finest industry professionals back for another episode. This time, we are talking fishing, along with previewing the upcoming Champions Tour, and talking the rich history of the St. Jude Bass Classic. Always a great conversation when Paul Neumann, Glenn Walker, & Jack Gavin are in the Galaxy. Enjoy.

Was fortunate to spend the day with one of the most dangerous anglers on any river system, Cade Laufenberg. If you fish the Mississippi in the upper Midwest, you've probably heard about this guy dominating BFL's, winning local events, and more…but this dude's also proved himself around the country, seeing success at the college level and beyond. One thing is for certain, there isn't a human being more obsessed with bass fishing than Cade, only as obsessed. I had a blast getting deep with this dude, delving into all things RIVER. Enjoy.

The 2023 Classic Bass Champions Tour Angler of the Year, Arnold Helgerson, has officially entered the Bass Galaxy. This guy has proven himself as one of the most dominant anglers on the Champions Tour. Arnie does things his way, and his way has shown to provide one of the more consistent resumes you'll find among Champions Tour Anglers. For those who don't know Arnie, he's an honest, hard working dude that lets his rod do the talking. He's not flashy, he's not loud, but he is a shallow water fishing specialist who's now earned his reputation as one of the best shallow water/dock fishermen in the state.

Both of these two are veterans to the sport, with years of experience & success in the midwest. Currently fishing the Classic Bass Champions Tour, Willy & Fig are stone-cold-bass-snatchin' basstronauts and there's never a dull moment with these bassin' degenerates. Join us as we explore the forces of the universe, bassin' stories, sunkist oranges & orange peels, Ostrich jousting, spirit guides, and more.

Keith Tuma is a true professor of Basstrology, going on his 2nd full Bassmaster Opens EQ season, after proving he's got it. Tuma is one of the best anglers I've fished against here in MN. He's won countless events in MN, and earned a BIG WIN in the Bassmaster Open on the Harris Chain. In 2023, he barely missed Elite birth...This season, he's after redemption. GREAT ANGLER, GREAT MIND, GREAT HUMAN....Keith Tuma ladies & gentlemen. Brought to you by Waypoint Angler Supply.

For this episode, we've got two bass fishing degenerates like me who are also two of my closest friends. Dane Vocelka is my tournament partner and also is the owner of Vocelka Fishing & Customs, specializing in premium custom fishing rods. He also is a tattoo artist, and owns the Harbor Tattoo studio right near lake Minnetonka. On top of that, he can fish, and has won numerous events at toughest level in our region. Joining Dane, is our close friend Jp who's is the digital marketing man at In Tune Marine, and can also flat out catch ‘em. These are two of my closest friends. There's so many funny stories and great memories with these guys I'll never forget. Here's a recording of a night with the boys catching up. Enjoy! Brought to you by: @Waypoint Angler Supply.

This is a conversation with a mentor I've looked up to and learned a lot from over the years. Steve Mense is currently the Phoenix Boats Regional Sales Manager for the upper Midwest. This is a guy who's seen it all when it comes to bass fishing and bass boats. He has established himself as an expert in both categories, a legend in my book. Great guy, great storyteller, and always fun conversations.

The two most dominate anglers from MN right now, Easton Fothergill & Noah Schultz joined us for an intergalactic bassin' conversation. Easton Fothergill has had a crazy "Cinderella Story" season. From winning Bassmaster College TOY with his partner Nick Dumke, winning team events with his Dad Gordon during the summer. Then he gets hit with a health scare that put everything into question, cleared just in time to win the bracket championship, punching his ticket to the Bassmaster Classic & All 9 Bassmaster Opens touting a brand new truck & boat. Noah just won another boat, won his 2nd Blackfish Classic, and continues to dominate both Champions Tour and Traditional tournament formats. Noah's from dirty southern MN, Easton's from the North Country clean...let's put their heads together in a new dimension and see where the Galaxy takes us.

Mississippi River hammers, Cory Hauk & Wyatt Stout, made the trip up for an intergalactic conversation. The track record these two have tournament fishing on the river is something special. Cory's list is longer, but he never sent it to me; so as far as I'm concerned, he's won 3 St. Jude's in a row with his partner Brian Harmon, has had a run of sheer dominance on multiple river pools, and has proven himself regionally as well. Wyatt has wins in the MSBC Circuit, Bass World Sports, 3 Buzz's Classic wins, a BFL co-angler win on Rayburn, 2 College Regional Championship wins on Carlyle and Kentucky Lake, been to 5 College National Championships, 2 state teams, numerous college top 5's, the MNBN Team Trail win this year, a TBF win this year, and then a shit load of local club and city open type tournaments. On top of that, we had ourselves a damn good time. Enjoy! Brought to you by: Waypoint Angler Supply. Visit their website and use the code: "galaxy20" to save 20% on your next order.

Andy Walls is a good friend and tournament fishing hammer who hails from the north country. He's won a boat, holds the record for biggest tournament smallmouth bag in MN (that I'm aware of), and he has countless other achievements, but one of Andy's coolest traits is his passion and perspective on the sport. I enjoy talking to people who have a different style than me, I learn so much. The sickness is real...I know you can relate.

Pat Schlapper is a Bassmaster Elite Series Pro hailing from the land of Wisconsin. If you didn't know him prior to the Elite Series, you're probably not from the Midwest, because I don't know if there's a human being who's had more dominance at the local/regional level (amassing an estimated 100-150 WINs) over his career. Pat Schlapper is one of few anglers to double qualify for the Bassmaster Elite Series. In 2020, he punched his ticket through Bass Nation with a championship win on Pickwick, and the Bassmaster Opens in the same season (the state of WI cried tears of joy when this happened). Now going on his 4th season on the Bassmaster Elite Series, Pat Schlapper is poised for success, and is knocking on the door of Elite Series stardom.

Minnesota's own Zach Piescher & Cole Semler are your 2023 High School Fishing National Champions. Hailing from Cambridge/Isanti fishing team, these two young hammers drove out to the Bass Galaxy Lair to talk everything from fishing & girls, to world culture & philosophy. In this crazy 21st century full of young heathens, I have to admit, these two anglers give me hope for this generation. Thanks for making the trip gentlemen! Enjoy.

Was very honored to have MN/WI own Bob Downey over to the Bass Galaxy HQ. His story is truly something special, and he is one of the most relatable anglers I've ever talked to. This past season, Bob Downey punched yet another Bassmaster Classic qualification, and he's proven he belongs, and is here to stay on the Elite Series. When Bob Downey of Hudson, WI signed on to fish the 2019 Bassmaster Central Opens, he knew it would be a tall step up in competition. Downey claimed a check in all four Central Opens, and qualified for the 2020 Bassmaster Classic by winning the final event of the season at Grand Lake, OK. He also qualified for the Elite Series by finishing 5th in the 2019 AOY standings. This is his story.

For this episode, we have two key members of the Waseca Bass Mafia. In fact, we happen to have the old bull AND the young calf. Honored to have Sergeant Big Fish Tim Schroeder (Godfather of WB Mob), a wizard/master of the Jigworm, and Century Belt holder on Lake Minnetonka, who brings an intergalactic amount of tournament success. Tim has a unique story; being in law enforcement for 26 years, being a powerful force on the bass tournament trail, being a mentor and high school fishing coach are just a few highlights. One of his apprentices joins us as well, who just won a Classic Bass Champions tour event this past season on the Alexandria Chain (at only 19 years old), beating his high school fishing coach and mentor (Tim Schroeder took 2nd that event). If you don't know by now, I'm talking about the young Walker Krampitz (SkyWalker), who has proven his abilities as an angler against the best in the Midwest. Walker is a dangerous member & the heir of the Waseca Bass Mafia. Thanks for making the trip out gentlemen. (And thank you for the new sign!) 'Twas a reeel nice time.

We've got the legend himself, Juicy Jay Carlson, who's got more tournament experience and success than the rest of us combined. Jay has won more boats than most would buy over their lifetime, and he never holds back the goods. Along with Juicy J, we've got the owner and founder himself, Ross Kellermeier, who's turned dreams into reality over the past year with his new bass fishing wonderland: Waypoint Angler Supply, the new Mecca for bass fishing addicts like you and me.
