Welcome to a special look at the dialogue we have en route and during our adventures as we search for the fish of our dreams. 

Today we are excited to introduce many of you to a Southern California LEGEND in the trophy bass fishing community, Ralph "Doc" Holiday.  Oliver was fortunate enough to live in the same area as Doc and ran into him often at the local tackle store where he got to be that super annoying kid with 134,234,247 questions and not once did Doc ever "Big Time" him.  A true class act and humble man that has accomplished so much as a big bass angler and ambassador for West Coast bass fishing.  

Doc shows us original hand carved wood Castaic Trout swimbaits that he fished the bait off of with TEETH marks.  These are the kind of swimbait collections that impress us, not the mint in the box or glass case displays (those are cool too but this is what they were designed to do).  He also goes into some of the different ways they fished one of the original big baits of the 90's era.  More to come... #BigBassDreams
