Clara is a hammer. No two ways about it. She came with some seriously interesting conversation and an intriguing report after her and Alex's win at Don Pedro. JR Wright is a good ol' boy with some info on Oroville and insight into other lakes. Big thanks to Nick for stepping up and rounding out the show with some Delta knowledge. It never ceases to amaze us how awesome people are in this community. Just when you think you've heard it all, you definitely haven't.

In this episode we welcome kayak tourney angler Scott Savko on once again to talk about a recent trip to New Melones, kayak tournament news and upcoming events. TBR regular Vince Borges drops in for a little WWBT buyout rumor talk and current Delta conditions. Headlining this one is So Cal native, John Karayan, who ended up 7th at the recent WON Cal Open at Clear Lake.

Settling into the new format with reports on some of the more prolific bass fisheries in northern California. If you'd like to help your fellow anglers out with simple reports, water temps, clarity, etc. hit us up on Instagram. @thebassreport

Miracles do happen. The mood from the last episode to this one is stark, and beautiful. Diana returns to us in unbelievable fashion and we talk about her ongoing recovery. We had some great people call in and ask questions and just reveled in how awesome it is that we still have her. We also got the chance to chat with Luke Johns about his top 5 finish at the inaugural Western Bass Shootout, and our guy Mark Cobey helped us out with a report on Clear Lake and Berryessa. We are happy to be back!

Diana Cook needs our prayers and support. Christian or otherwise, send some healing love towards this beautiful soul.

Merry Christmas TBR listeners! In this year's final episode we're joined by WWBT/Apex angler Colby Pearson. We talk finesse, we talk big swimbaits, we have a good time. Thanks for listening this year and best wishes to you in the New Year!

Hard to beat Juan Acosta talking Delta fishing in the winter. Throw in some forward-facing sonar discussion and you have a good conversation. On top of all that, the Motherlode is in fine form this winter. Go out and catch 'em!

What was gonna be a quick Q&A on lithium batteries turned into a full-fledged, good ol' fashioned TBR episode! Big thanks to Tanner for joining us. Not only did we get some great info on lithiums, but we ended up talking Delta fishing with him as well. Hope you all enjoy and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Big thanks to Austin for joining us and talking shop. Dude knows more about fishing than a dozen keyboard pirates.

Joel Chin is an enigma, wrapped in a mystery, shrouded in a dude who loves people. And he lives it. But, he also loves bass fishing. We had ourselves a good time talking to a man that defies the standard of what a bass fisherman should/would/could be. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did talking to him.
