What happens when you get two Northern Michigan guys together—one who takes smallmouth fishing seriously, and the other who’s combined his knowledge of smallmouth forage and engineering to create the first line-through bait based on the delicious goby? JP is an awesome guy who saw a hole in the market and wanted to cater to his fellow northern anglers, creating the Godzilla Goby. In a short amount of time, this bait has been stacking up big bags for guys all across the Great Lakes region. This episode is packed with stories from JP’s time testing his baits, along with some great moments he’s shared with others along the way.
