I also heavily use Hookup Baits which is also killer for spotties. What are your go to baits?

@@harrisDoes Mostly all plastics. I pretty much make all my own stuff now. My go to are usually swim or twitch baits of some kind 3.75-6 inch. Drop shot, jig head, or beast hook. Fished all my life but didn’t use artificial until maybe 2 years ago. Very intriguing how far bait makers have come. Cool video, dig the channel 🤙🏻

Awesome, good luck out there!

Thanks for watching!

🤙 thanks for watching!

This was my first time out on big bear lake so I'm not sure where the bass hang out. I have seen a few videos on youtube where people catch bass on big bear though...Most recently, sin city outdoors posted one ruclips.net/video/zvu7Dqpy8hY/видео.html&pp=ygURc2luIGNpdHkgb3V0ZG9vcnM%3D

Good point! I wasn't sure how I was going to cook the trout and ultimately decided to filet it.

Thanks for the tips!

It was pretty sweet. I unfortunately dropped it in the water at willow beach a few weeks ago. It is now at the bottom of the Colorado river

cool, I will check it out!

I heavily use swim baits in general. Gulp swimming mullet (curly tail), Keitech Swing Impact Soft Bait, and most of all, I use hookup baits (mostly 1/4oz).

This was a pre-existing internal leak (not on the surface of the kayak). It wasn't caused by a hook

Thanks for watching!

Noice! Let me know how it works out for you

👍

I actually really dig it. I just bought a long armed phone mount and attach it to the crate with all my gear that sits behind my kayak seat. I highly recommend the deeper pro+ if you're looking for a solid fish finder without having to keep a heavy battery in the kayak. It's just something you can charge the night before fishing and the battery lasts 5 hours or so

I've hit that spot earlier in the winter and it was pretty solid. I will definitely go back there next time I'm at pepper park, thanks for the tip!

Thanks for watching!

I appreciate you watching!

Thanks for watching! I've had a lot of luck with 1/4oz hookup baits in the bay

So true! Thanks for watching

In my latest video, I do a gear breakdown but to summarize here: I use a Hobie i9S mirage inflatable kayak. My rods are all 6.5 to 7 feet long with medium to light action. I use 50lb braided line backing with 20lb fluorocarbon leader line. For bait, I use 1/4oz to 3/8oz jigheads mostly with 3-4" swimbaits. My favorite is the 1/4oz hookup baits. I film on a gopro 11 and 12.

We're 7 months in and it's hasn't deteriorated at all. Cedar is naturally resistant to rot and decay. I will post a follow-up comment when it's been 1 year with a photo of the gate!

Definitely one of my favorites too. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks!

Absolutely! This same approach should work for a 6-foot gate. Let me know how it goes!

Will do!

Thanks for watching! Cheers!

I don't have the space for a rigid kayak either which is why I went the inflatable route. I'm on an older model Hobie Mirage i9S. The newer ones have more of a sup board design but I prefer the stability of this sit-in style inflatable. The newer ones are probably faster and have the new and improved pedal drive system. I really do love the Hobie inflatables. Highly recommend!

Thanks sir, I thought that was an older style hobie. I do like the sit in versions but I guess I may have to get the newer one. Thanks again for the reply🤙

Thanks for watching! I've been curious about those saturns. Let me know how it's going! For rods, I use a 7 ft medium heavy (abu garcia blue max), a 6.5 ft medium (abu garcia black max), 7 ft moderate (abu garcia vengance), and a 6.5 ft moderate-fast (kastking centron lite). For line strength, I usually go with 20lb fluorocarbon leader with 20 to 50lb braid backing. For baits/lures, 3" to 5" swimbaits on jig heads work well in the bay. My overall favorite has to be the 1/4oz hookup baits brown & silver (I've caught dozens of spotted bay bass and halibut on them!). Warbaits makes some high quality jig heads and underspins that I've just started trying out. Good luck out there. Cheers!

Yea, I don't ever stay there for more than 4 hours. If you want to stay for longer you could park and launch at liberty station (by the bridge) or even shelter island isn't too far away.

thanks, I never skip knee day 🤣
