Conventional Fishing Expert Danny Palmquist
My Strike King Hack Attack heavy cover spinnerbaits get it done!

    • Danny Palmquist

    As a lifelong angler, I have experience fishing a wide variety of techniques. My passion is fishing for bass. I put a lot of time and effort putting together technique specific combos and optimizing them so I can land more fish and improve my overall experience. I am also a writer and photographer, and I love exploring new bodies of water and documenting those adventures.

    I've spent the past few years doing a lot of flipping, pitching, and frogging in heavy cover. I love that "hand to hand combat" style of fishing. Currently, I'm focusing on learning to fish big swimbaits. More specifically I'm learning to fish 2-5oz glide baits and wakebaits.

    I've helped 676 people find the right product - I'd love to help you too!
