Mike Iaconelli and Other Anglers Discuss the Final Northern Open
The final Bassmaster Norther Open was held in the Upper Chesapeake Bay, September 16th-18th. Mike Iaconelli: Fishing conditions different from 2009, but still tough. Last time we were here, it was pre-spawn, we had a major cold front hit and really shut the fish down, and it was tough. This year, we really hoped for better conditions, but now it's transition. We had some cold nights, the grass is starting to die, we had some salt water. So, it made it tough again. This fishery more...

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Catching Tournament Bass at Clarks Hill
Mike Iaconelli here at Clarks Hill Lake, at the Elite tournament. This was a super tough week. Lakes with blue-back herring are synonymous with tough fishing, once the blue-back are done spawning. That's what we had here this week, so super-tough fishing. I had a decent tournament. The way that I figured out how to catch them was sort of a two-pronged approach this week. Early in the morning, when you had low-light conditions, I would basically fish the flat points with more...

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Why He Fishes Molix Spinnerbaits
Hi folks, Mike Iaconelli here, and I want to talk to you about a brand new spinnerbait company I'm working with this year. It's a company out of Italy, called Molix. I know you probably haven't heard of it, but you're going to be hearing a lot about this company called Molix. They make some unbelievable spinnerbaits. I'm real picky when it comes to these blades, when it comes to a wirebait. I finally found a company, that to me, makes more...

Mike Iaconelli Talks About Fishing Deep Water at Clear Lake
Mike Iaconelli, here to talk about the second regular BASS event, another one out in California. This one at Clear Lake. Everyone's heard of Clear Lake, what an awesome lake. I really went there expecting to throw a swimbait the entire tournament, and have giant fish following this thing. It really, for me, turned into a deep-water tournament. I found a lot of fish, that were more on the pre-spawn side than on the actual spawn side. In the event, I targeted more...

2010 Bassmaster Tournament California Delta Hydrilla Fishing
Hi, Mike Iaconelli, want to talk about the first regular Elite season tournament of the year, California Delta. We showed up, high expectations. What did we get? Cold weather again. Another really, really tough tournament. I found the fish in deep hydrilla, and that's one pattern in the pre-spawn you can always really rely on, is hydrilla. There's hydrilla all over. What I found was, if you could find the right mix of current, clear water, deeper hydrilla and flats nearby. more...

Mike Iaconelli on 2010 Bassmaster Classic
I'm Mike Iaconelli, I want to talk to you about the Classic this year, the 2010 Bassmaster Classic on Lay Lake. Probably one of the toughest Classics I've ever fished. Really cold weather, winter-time conditions, muddy water and lethargic fish. I had a pretty good tournament, ended up 6th in that one. Without a doubt, there was one bait that I caught about 80% of my fish on. It was an old school grub. I think a lot of people, over the more...

Mike Iaconelli Auctions Goatee for Fishin' with a Mission Charity
How you doing? I'm Mike Iaconelli and I'm here to retire my beard. My lucky goatee here has been around for over a year and a half.

And I want to cut this thing off and this is going to sound a little strange, but we're going to cut it off and sell it. We're going to put it up for auction, it's going to be on my website, more...

Berkley Beast and Tru-Tungsten Weights for Largemouth in Cabbage Patches
Last regular season stop on the bass tour, Lake Oneida. You know Lake Oneida, one of my favorite lakes in the country, going into it really excited. I ended up not having a great tournament there but I did catch fish. I caught enough limits to get me to the post season. So let's talk about what I did at Oneida. I got to Oneida and it was really a weird deal because there were roaming smallmouths, schooling smallmouths, I never found those. And then there more...
