Still amazes me how much quality, pertinent and immediately usable info you can pack into one video, in an easy to understand format. Your pics & graphics are over the top. Really appreciate you Johnny. Still the best out there. I’m wondering if your “lives” have a new schedule? I used to watch faithfully when it was every Tuesday evening. I could plan for it. Now I’m never sure when. Thanks for all your hard work for our benefit. Merry Christmas!
I’ve never caught any fish on any of them in winter other than a very few on a lipless. I catch 99% in winter on a jig and pork or jig and bulkier craw trailer
Awesome data thanks. I went to greers ferry for the first time 2 days ago and used the deep dive app. Only had 3 hours to fish so I was only able to graph around Check out 2 spots and found fish (Kentucky bass) on a steep drop 60 ft next to a flat. Actually couldn’t get them to bite anything but a green pumpkin jig with a craw style trailer. But they were suspended between 20-30 ft and we’re fighting over the jig for about an hour, maybe a little less then it started getting dark and had to go. But I’ll be headed back this weekend to spend the day fishing. Thanks for the video. Your videos is 100% how I learned to find and fish off shore.
Awesome video! I used to keep track of my catches, and one year, December was the best month with the white H&H double spinner bait caught the most fish of all year on my local lake in louisiana.
The challenge I have on my local lake is that the biggest brush piles are stupid deep. 25-45 feet. The jerkbait is basically useless on brush in those depths but can work on points of course. A jghead minnow, blade bait, ned rig, or micro jig are some alternatives for the deep stuff I have to deal with.
I don’t remember where I seen it. But some RUclips guy made a video using what I call solder and he wrapped it around the shank of the hooks to get his jerk bait to sink. I tested it in my pool and it works pretty good. But I’ve never bought anything on it yet. My problem with the deep brush piles is that it goes deeper when you jerk it and if you don’t have FFS you’ll just get it stuck in the brush pile. I have had some luck using a Texas rig on a soft jerk bait with a Carolina rig and a long leader from the weight. Like 16-20 inches. But it sucks throwing it. I usually just get over the brush let it sink and bounce it off the brush. But I can only do it with FFS. But I’m also not the best fisherman. Try it out if you’d like.
Jonny, Very good analysis. I really enjoy all your content. I never got a chance to use the Deep Dive app much, even though I promised you that I'd compare it to the HB Smart strike. I just became too ill to use my boat. It's kind of breaking my heart that I have a Z21 with only about 34 hours on it that I really can't use. I've had boats ever since I was 13 years old and this last one might be my last. For men 40 and older, I recommend getting regular PSA test. Stay healthy and keep fishing. GB
Great video Jonny. Very informative. I live on highland reservoir and have done well on DT 6 and RC along with jighead/minnow. Want to try deep diving jerkbaits with blue-black in our lake.
I like your presentation❤. What I feel missing from each of the highest ranked bait is: weather conditions during and before catching fish(e.g. sunny/cloudy, did it rain the night before, was it full moon) air temp, water temp, feeding times, barometric pressure. Using this data along with what conditions were favorable in catching bass would help see any correlations on how this could increasde your strike as well as explain WHY that bait was the highest ranked.
I have the hardest time finding anyone talking about northern lakes that actually freeze. I seem to only be able to catch bass on hair jigs right up until water goes below 40 degrees. These days its takes forever for lakes to actually accrue safe ice where I am at in central Iowa so I find myself stuck fishing mid to upper 30 degree water longer than I would like before I am on ice. I really struggle when stuck fishing these water temperatures. If you have time could you lend any thoughts? I like that "moping" approach you mentioned, I finding myself deadsticking plastics for crappie this time of year and that gets the best results, maybe I ought to try that for bass...
*Hello "Fish the Moment"...is your lake breakdown link broken, or did you take it down?* Looking for some starting points here in south-central Florida chains, and Okeechobee.
Great video as usual. I fish Silver Buddy type blade baits with great success in winter. Would that be in the Lipless category? Also what about bottom baits like a Tube or Jig?
Too many factors to consider. Keep it simple. Shallow lakes, bang cover with cranks, chatterbaits, squarebills, jigs. Deep lakes, ripbaits and jigs, a rigs, dropshot. Where ever you fish, remember to SLOW down in the winter. Most anglers don't have the patience to slow down. You will get more bites in sub 50° water.
I like what your doing and I fully support fish the moment core tackle and the rest of your products and ideas. But this data is going off if the anglers told the truth. And as we know for a long time it was key to not be truthful in having an advantage over the competition. Recently with the innovation of fully live coverage for the whole tournament we can truly see what the anglers are using. Hopefully your data will be accurate but it is based on what the anglers provided.
We gather the data by having professional anglers watch Live coverage from professional level events and inputting data based on the fish catches they see on the live coverage. This is not made up data inputted randomly. Every pattern we capture is backed by an actual observed catch on live coverage. We do this to ensure data quality and take out opinion.
@@erniebrightfishingthat’s why we only record fish catches seen on live coverage. We can see the bait in the mouth of the bass and the exact location the angler is fishing in. We don’t put data in the app based on “top 10 bait” articles or interviews with pros. I agree that many of these articles and interviews do not reflect what anglers are actually throwing. We put in a lot of extra effort to record what the anglers are actually throwing, even if it doesn’t line up with what they say in articles.

Where would the Alabama rig rank on here if it was tournament legal ?

Once again great, on point info. I've seen the same thing....I'd add a jigging spoon in too.
I absolutely adore this format of information, i think you have a winner here...
Great info, keep it coming, best info on you tube in my opinion.
Well done young Jedi Master! Been awhile since I've watched one, but you knocked this one out of the park.
Great walk through! Would love to see more about how to use the app/patterns against non-tournament lakes.
Very interesting findings. Thanks for analyzing and sharing!
Fishing Watauga lake in TN, thank you for teaching.

The berkley stunna is a slow sinking jerkbait may help to get down there a bit.Tight lines
Rapala countdown minnow my guy

Did you get the COVID poke?

Humminbird Mega Live update... does it really get better
Please do a video on 38deg water

What happened to Fish the Moment Podcast?
What happened to the lake breakdowns?
jig head minnow definitly on spotted bass lakes during winter.
Something is wrong with the lake breakdown section of the website.
Too many factors to consider.
Keep it simple.
Shallow lakes, bang cover with cranks, chatterbaits, squarebills, jigs.
Deep lakes, ripbaits and jigs, a rigs, dropshot.
Where ever you fish, remember to SLOW down in the winter. Most anglers don't have the patience to slow down. You will get more bites in sub 50° water.
For me nothing comes close to the bite you get on a perfectly run spinnerbait in the right color in the winter.

@@FishtheMoment I wasn't saying it's made up. I was saying that anglers lie about what they catch em on.

I always was suspicious of these guys sharing their “secrets”. Good thing we have such extensive video coverage haha
How about Florida 🥶
👍👍👍👍👍
British a tournament and document it. Until then I don’t take you serious.
Arig 95% of winter catches. lol
