Get to know The Googan Squad: Lake Fork Guy Edition!In the fall of 2016, 5 young anglers, Lake Fork Guy, Jon B., Peric, Flair, and Lunkers, as they're known to the fans of their YouTube fishing videos banded together, creating what is now a modern day dream-team in the fishing scene.Historically, influential anglers focused on fishing tips or pushing products, and have taken a pretty serious approach to the sport of bass fishing. The Googan Squad has found success embracing the opposite mentality.
