Kayak Fishing Clinic Video with Jeff Little & Chad Hoover (Part 1)

This is the first in a series from a one hour kayak fishing clinic with Jeff Little and Chad Hoover. There is one thing these guys like almost as much as kayak fishing for smallmouth and largemouth bass, and that is talking about it and educating people that are interested or just getting into the sport.
