I had another double trip set and would be doing a lot of running back and forth in the waves! Alfred and his friend joined me in the morning and managed to land a bunch of good smallies, along with walleye and perch. Daniel and his wife were in the afternoon and I think the conditions worsened. I was forced to use a drift sock just to slow the speed down. This was the only way I could manage to keep them feeling bottom on the passes we made. It definitely wasn\u2019t the easiest fishing, but somehow, I made it work. Bass were both landed as well as lost by both. Add the full moon to the mix and it surely wasn\u2019t easy! Overall, a tough and challenging day!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"867\" height=\"1180\" src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedbassin.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260828_084855-867x1180.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28792\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"1180\" src=\"https:\/\/www.advancedbassin.com\/uploads\/2026\/08\/100_0407-2-850x1180.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28793\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The conditions weren\u2019t great today with a big west wind blowing 3 footers for most of the day.
