I haven't fished a bobber for years, I am in.

Thank you for this video cause just recently I was confronted with this situation on a lake that normally has 5-6’ clarity and we really struggled getting bite especially docks and lay downs. We caught maybe 20 bass compared to 30-40 normally and tried darker baits and off shore fishing. Does the algae effect the bass being able to breathe like we’re effected by pollen?

Fishing the backwaters of Lake Erie I see this several times a year. It usually doesn’t affect my fishing.

That is so awesome of your sponsors!!

Liking your new intro!!!

as a vet, thats for your support. donation on way. :)

KVD told me to thread my Max scent flat worm on the hook Thats all i do now. It works !

Nice idea!!

Very awesome! Great work, Mark and Megan. Donation made

What a great program for a worthy cause. Semper Fi!!

Cool idea!!

Count me in! 😊

Great video, you did good job showing difference in sounds 90 and 105 choppo, I noticed that you used fairly fast retrieve for both, when ploppers first came out it was more of a slower plop sound, is the faster sound better now?

Going to give them a try today!

I had 10mph winds today throwing a black Whopper Plopper size 120. Water was dark and choppy heavy cloud cover. I got two hits missed both but they appeared to be good size. I need to work on t hook sets. It was fun regardless. I have a GoPro video of one of the strikes also.

Loving it Mark👍 Thanks for the footage🤠

Interesting how different the sounds are. I didn't have a smaller 90 size but I ordered one today. Now I have to figure out what color to paint the bottom. Thanks for the work you guys put into this episode!

Great stuff as usual Mark!

What size choppo do you use in fall? Funny u said the worm. It's been my secret weapon in Sept and Oct in missouri. Only I use a paddle tail like a old man's 10-12 inch worm in purple. No idea why they like it but they do

Great tips! Your very good teacher. I understand it much better. Thank you

I just picked up several Wooper Ploppers can’t wait to get them wet. Thanks for the update.

Here in Alabama we still have water temps in mid 80’s however our ambient temps are going to be upper 80’s finally with night temps upper 70’s mid 60’s. So with this information will be watching the water. Thanks for the heads up.

Is it possible for a farm pond to be turning over now beginning of September? I fish one about 5 acres we went last Thursday and these bubbles were coming up from the bottom all over the pond water just looked different? This is in Ky. and its been record highs.

Good tips Mark!

The hammer is gonna be if a state makes it illegal because it's real time. You can't use real time in hunting, like a drone for example 😮

Long one

I generally nose hook mine (just in front of the eyes side to side) using an appropriate size hook for the different size baits or target fish. The bait usually just slides up the line. As it gets worn out I just clip a little off. I’ve caught fish in one cut back past the eyes. I will add weight as needed. Sometimes just a split shot above it and sometimes drop shot style. I’ve caught multiple fish (spotted & striped bass) on one lure. I recently bought some of these CoreTackle weighted hooks for river fishing. Can’t wait to try it.

Randy said the same thing he will give some juicy tips on bass or bass fishing nobody watches but as soon as he does his anti FFS videos he gets blown up with views

I like the intro. I have pretty good luck with the bass pro stick-o split tail which also works great on the core tackle hover rig. The other chatter bait trailer I like is the hog farmer spunk shad

I have been using crush city freeloader and the action is awesome.

I fish a grass lake. So I'm clipping the tops of submerged grass. My most successful trailer on a jack hammer is a zoom split tail. Try that in a pool you will be amazed on the action

Cheap bait! It's not an expensive bait at all. My Hinkle trout is a 750.00 bait. The action is amazing the quality is cheap China crap. Does the fish catch fish? Yes. So is the 9.99 cost at Tackle Warehouse worth it? Yes. Your only option is buying 6 packs at a time.

Good tip Matk!

I don't get too hung up on trailers. If the bait is in the correct spot, I doubt the fish cares what's on the bladed jig. Musky & pike guys use a straight-tailed Slug-Go threaded on 90 degrees to the slits. It wiggles side to side when installed that way. I think the shorter intro is a good compromise. I skip many long intros and I'm assuming many others do as well.

Will be trying that as for the trailer I like the long one.

I’m going to give that try

Try wacky rigging your baits and do a video on them.

Happy Anniversary! Looking forward to another year

I fish drop shot on the bottom and as the top drop shot gurus say, less movement is better. I would not use either hook as I throw them in brush and breder weedless. Gamakatsu Wicked Wacky Hooks in 1/0 are best as you tie a palomar and run the tag end down through the straw on the hook to your weight. Only prob is even the 1/0 is kind of large and obnoxious looking

Happy 1 year. Keep up the great content. I love that the videos are a mix of different things

Congrats on the first anniversary! Roland Martin recently mentioned that his most viewed video is on knot tying. I don't recall if you did one but we'd love to hear about your suggested knots for hooks, leaders, etc. Getting a hot-viewed video can really grow the channel so hopefully one of these does the trick.

Happy Anniversary!! Been a great ride hanging out with you two. I have learned so much and appreciate you.

Happy anniversary! I think your doing a great job and watch pretty much every video you do. Definitely need more Megan 😂. Keep it up guys!

This seems to be pertinent to casting a drop shot and working back to the angler. What if it is just dropped straight down, as if fish are below the boat? Does the two hooking methods change the action?

I think I would do no thing

Good footage Mark. The hook I use is dependent on the bait I’m using. For example if I’m using a worm type bait I often use a 1/0 wide gap hook so it’s weedless. Minnow type baits I’ll nose hook.

Threaded the way to go absolutely more natural.

The pool is clutch !!

Totally agree with you. Nose hooked didn't look as good. That dream shot looked amazing . I do both but I think I try threading more
