We've got Brian Bird of World Bass Enterprises, the organization that's holding the Champions Tournament in Nashville later this fall.
Well, he's in the beef seat this week with some pretty wild updates and a way that you could compete with the top pro anglers in the country.
Have you ever scrolled through social media after getting your teeth kicked in on the water only to see giant bass, giant boats, and the latest electronics everywhere? Well, before you start thinking success can be bought, stick around because this week's Just the Tip is all about escaping the comparison trap and remembering what really makes a great angler.
And not all of it has to do with the dew point in the Everglades or wherever he's living right now.
If maybe you're listening to Jigs and Bigs for the very first time and this is your first show, well, welcome.
We're all about building up that community, supporting anglers of every type that's out there.
If you're here to just kind of talk shop and figure out what's going on, we got you there, too.
The big thing is that we're hopefully going to make you laugh a little bit and bring a little brightness to your day.
We've got a lot of stuff going on here, but it's more than just the podcast.
If you want to kind of gamify your fishing, the Jigs and Bigs Tournament Series is a great way to do it.
Whether it's a team tournament on our monthly trail or the Slot Limit Series where you get to compete against the entire country, it's all going on over at Fishing Chaos.
And you're probably going to hear us mention some people as the show goes on.
And they get access to the show as we're recording it as an exclusive live stream.
They're the real diehard fans, and we appreciate them more than they even realize.
If you're interested in all that stuff, even Jigs and Bigs merch, you can visit jigsandbigs.com.
Links for everything right there, plus some savings on gear that you need as well.
Check out jigsandbigs.com. It's ground zero for everything you need, jigs and bigs.
Also, remember that whatever podcast platform you're listening on, ratings and reviews help us out an absolute ton.
And if you want to leave a review, if you have the opportunity, like on Apple Podcasts, go ahead and do that.
But whether you want to submit an FTG, you have a grievance, something crazy happened on the water, you want to give the proverbial finger to a person or a group of people, that's a place where you can do it.
If you want to chime in and ask a question or ask us to follow up on something in the live wall, you can do that there as well.
Whether it's a shout out, anything else, go ahead, leave us a voicemail there or text us and you'll hear some of those messages too in the live wall at 413-324-8519.
