Master the Art of Crappie and Bluegill Fishing on North Texas Lakes

Built on a Love for Fishing
My name is Scott Bradshaw, and fishing has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in the Texas Big Country fishing for perch (or sunfish, depending on who you ask) and catfish, mostly from the banks of small creeks and tributaries. Those early days sparked a lifelong passion for freshwater fishing and being outdoors.
As an adult, I spent more time fishing from a boat and started chasing just about any gamefish I thought I could catch — but crappie have always been at the top of my list. In 2017, I joined Crappie Anglers of Texas to sharpen my skills and learn from others on the tournament trail. I’m still learning every day, but what really drives me is the chance to help others enjoy the sport I love. If I can help someone have a great day on the water, that’s a win in my book. Thanks for the opportunity, and God bless.
