Iaconelli, Klein and Lane Fish VIP
VIP Adventures is not just for the weekend angler, BASS Professionals loved it, and scored big time. Mike Iaconelli, Gary Klein and Bobby Lane visited VIP this past year for an in depth look at what Mark has built for the "everyday angler."
For more on this great fishery, and to see how the pros faired, visit Mike Pehanich's Small Waters Fishing and check out the Lake Management and Small Waters Fishing links.
Alligator Forest, Lily Pad, Brush Pile and Winding lakes are primed for a banner fishing season. After an electro-shock of the lake, Marc has determined there is an ample supply of threadfin shad and brim, plus some really large bass lurking the waters. All brush piles have been "sweetened" with added brush for increased ambush points for lunkers to hide and wait.

And, lakes Gauntlet and Paradise are open and ready to go. In fact, Berkley Pro Staff Member Gary Klein headed to VIP with Bass Master Magazines Senior Editor Ken Duke. Their goal was to cover Gary's belief that you can catch more fish on any bait in your box, during anytime of the season, providing you master the art of changing direction. For more on direction, check out the article in the November 2011 edition of Bass Master Magazine titled, "Direction, Direction, Direction," by Ken Duke/Senior Editor. Gary picked apart various VIP lakes with good results.

Gauntlet and Paradise, which are approximately seven years old have been groomed with over 300 brush piles, and bait in the form of gizzard shad, threadfin shad and brim. The lakes, although not officially stocked have had numerous bass of all sizes added the last two years from various parts of South Carolina. An electro-shocking showed a healthy amount of bait, plus a strong showing of bass.
