Shearon Harris Post Front (Pre-Hurricane Fishing a Flooded Lake)
Shearon Harris is 3ft high in this video and the fish were all very excited about all the extra cool water. With a sudden deluge of rain, the lake rose quite a bit more than it has been in a few years, and although the fish had some extra water over them, they didn't all run to the bank like I was expecting. They took this chance to move slightly shallower on the areas that they were already sitting on and start feeding like crazy. The schools of shad were everywhere on the surface and blacking out the depthfinder when I moved a little shallower so all the fish, I was catching were full and definitely ready for the fall cooldown!

Lake Norman Bass Fishing (Trying to break it down plus Tips!)
Просмотров 4702 месяца назад
This is the start of my breakdown of Lake Norman. I've come to the lake many times, but not usually enough to get a real picture of how or what the fish are doing. However, I want to start coming here more often and getting the hang of the nomadic and crazy spotted bass lol. I started the day covering water with a buzzbait and was rewarded every few casts with a blow up or a fish. This actually...
Tournament Day on the Chickahominy River!

Tournament day on the Chickahominy River in VA! After two days of practice, one productive, one not so much, it's time to put it on the line for the tournament. I chose to launch at a ramp down from where I practiced two days earlier and work my way up towards the back as the tide came out. The day started off slowly as the cooler weather may have had the fish in a negative mood, however as the...
Tidal Water Bass Fishing (Chickahominy River KBT Practice)
Просмотров 2692 месяца назад
My practice day on the Chickahominy River in the coastal area of Virginia. As an offshoot of the James Rives the Chick (as it's known locally) is a tidal body of water. This presents some interesting challenges when approaching it. The tides swing on a 6hr schedule, and this causes the water level to fluctuate quite a bit, and as a result the fish change locations quite a bit as they jockey for...

My first day back on Lake Waccamaw in a few years since I moved away. This place has always been a sleeper lake, and I was excited to get back out on it to see if the fish were still in there. It took a little while, but I managed to get back on some of my old areas and patterns that I knew from years ago. It's definitely cool to get back to a body of water that I cut my teeth on and catch a fe...

    Well I just jumped into the Mega Live world, it’s on order should be here Friday. Couple of questions; Why did you go with a separate power source from your Solex? How do you like the Summit system now that you’re in an AP instead of the Big Water?

    • @Whamfishing
      @Whamfishing 2 месяца назад

      I wanted everything removable for when I go offshore (saltwater) and wouldn't be using it is the main reason for a separate battery. Plus mega is a constant draw so if you hook it up and drive to the lake it's slowly drawing power the whole time. Easier to hook everything up without going into hatches and stuff at the lake if it's separate. As far as the mount, it works the same in both kayaks, in the autopilot the transducer sits better when it's out of the water as opposed to having to hook it to the paddle holder on the bw

      I’m in the process of getting my mega live set up. Do you know of any companies that make an adapter for the mega live ethernet cable that is FEMALE to connect directly to the transducer without using the 20’ Ethernet cable Humminbird provides? I have the short “adapter” cable that Humminbird sells separately and it’s an 8 pin MALE to the 5 pin male. Humminbird has a 5’ cable but they want $50 for it. Where I’m mounting the Mega Live I have no need for the 20’ cable or even 5’ for that matter. I can go straight from the transducer cable to the Helix 9 but I need an 8 pin FEMALE adapter.

  • @davidwilliams1805
    @davidwilliams1805 2 месяца назад

    If it's a new area that I'm fishing, I'll stick a couple to check the quality as mentioned by YakNZak. You probably already know this, but your best fishing on a tidal river will be your last couple hours of outgoing tide and first hour and a half of incoming. The absolute worst time to fish is slack tide. I have fished the Chickahominy River many times and it is a great fishery! Hope you smash some good ones in your tournament.
