Yeah Maine or maybe NH lakes region would be cool to see. Dunno if I'd make it for a meetup but it would be cool to see you guys fish my home waters. New England doesn't seem to get a lot of bass love but the smallie fishing is great here
Should come to TN! Travel the TN river system fishing each lake. Start with Knoxville on Fort Loudoun and then on down to Chickamauga lake making your way to KY lake! that would be cool to see a video series on that! Also between Knoxville and Dandridge is the French Broad river with some monster smallies!!
Go to Michigan. Lake St. Clair smallmouths, and largies are insane. Also, river smallmouths in the clinton river that winds all around the metro Detroit area. IMO it would make some sweet videos if you went out to St. Clair.
Couldnt agree more with this i fish these waters all the time, could get some walleye action in too. Come in april to the tenton area for the detroit river silver bass run unbelievable fishing and would make awesome footage
Some of the best small mouth fishing in the country. I would also add Erie and Grand Traverse Bay to the list. I know you were up there already but you can never fish it enough!
Tell you what, Minnesota has some of the best winter/summer fishing, drive 10 minutes in any direction and you're at a lake or large pond. Great people, great place to visit. Very much recommend it Jon!!! I personally fish for Walleye, Crappie, or anything I enjoy putting on my plate. But bass are very much abundant as well!
You should hit up clear lake in Cali. Number 3 lake in the world for bass fishing and number 1 on the west coast. Lake record is 17.52 lbs. people routinely pull 10+ ponders there. I have a cousin who has a house near the lake. Might go there cross country soon. I live in CT.
Come to South Carolina and fish Lake Hartwell, Its a BASS master classic stop and a Top 100 lake in the country. Gene " Fluke" isnt to far from it either maybe a collab?
Come up to Ontario.....Kawarthas area. It's absolutely insane how many lakes are around. Throw open google maps and look around Peterborough to Algonquin area. Our bass don't get as big as those monster Texas and Florida ones....but the lakes and scenery is somethin else. I really suggest hitting any "shield lake"....also, plan your trip for last week of June/first week of July. That's just after Bass opener and just post-spawn, once the summer drags on it slows down.
Shimano Metanium MGL going for $6,000 now! Man that is so awesome! It's so cool that you are giving back. Plus there is no reason to feel bad about getting "sentimental" it just shows you have a heart man! Mad respect for this!
I went on a fishing trip in Minnesota and had a bad experience... Fished about 6 different lakes and ponds and only caught about 3 bass. We were in Savage, Minnesota, right outside of Minneapolis.
Eastern Washington Bud! Lots of great lakes over here big and small. Come to Spokane WA. It is warmer and less crowded than the west side and some virtually unpressured lakes up here all within a 30 minute drive from the 2nd biggest city in Washington State. Some of the most beautiful scenery in the country up here in the Pacific Northwest and it would make for an excellent trip and video. B roll would be off the chain. Think about it.
the Shimano Metanium MGL XG W/ ZPI Parts is currently bid at $6000, thats crazy!!! somebody has a lil too much extra money, but at least its going to a good cause. nice work @Jon B.
I really am glad it went to a good cause, I didn't realize this until after watching his entire video. but damn did I want to invest in his baitcasters as soon as I saw them lol
I live in Illinois near you Jon and a road trip to Lake Barkely and Kentucky Lake in Kentucky/Tennessee is not a bad trip at all and there is some great ledge fishing...you'll just need a boat
Florida. The tampa bay area has LOTS of salt water backwater areas as well as creeks and both natural and man made freshwater lakes. We have the best of every kind of fishing.
South Carolina has some great fishing! I've heard the Santee Cooper Lakes are on FIRE! an article in a recent Bassmaster magazine said they were catching some 30lb+ limits there.
Try going to Arizona with rob and Alex to do some lake pleasant fishing for striper, white bass and some largies if you do I suggest the early morning looking for boils using lipless, and spoons but have a good jig ready for those cove lmbs also try the Gila river if you do visit az but be warned, striper are an invasive species here so if you catch one you have to take it out of the lake
Go hit Table Rock lake in Missouri or Bull Shoals in Arkansa. Both are great, beautiful spots with tons to do and both have some of the best fishing in the midwest. You can catch smallies, spots, and LMBs at both. good size, very consistent
quick question, I'm going to buy the shimano stradic ci4 but i need to know what size is a good size not too big but gives me a lot of line to throw baits far
Jon if you are looking for the fishing trip of your life come to park Rapids Minnesota...we are surrounded with big bass lakes both small and large mouth it's a great town and you and your friends would have a blast here!
Lake El Salto in Mexico, Lake Baccarat in Mexico, Lake Casitas in Mexico. Basically go bass fishing in Mexico. Guaranteed 30-90 fish days where an average fish is 3-5 lbs. and "grandes" are 10-12+
You should hit clear lake or Bullards bar reservoir in northern Cali. I forget which one but one of those lakes holds the record spotted bass. I think it was 11.5 or 11.7 pounds also the California delta system has a lot of great opportunity for some Giants. Anything from bass to sturgeon to striped bass to catfish or crappie. We have it all down here
Hahaha.... Looks like my car minus a couple of rods and 500lbs of tackle and bait. Still, I don't go anywhere without my fishing poles. Also, northern Virginia small pond fishing is pretty legit.Keep up the good work and tight lines!
Northern MN. mostly known for Walleye and smallies but still amazing largemouth, panfish, and northern (some muskies too) fishing. Lakes there are all insanely clear and theres some world class fishing
Try fishing in Bermuda. Great offshore and inshore fishing. Book a charter with Playmate for offshore fishing. Great Marlin fishing in the summer and great tuna and wahoo fishing in the spring and fall. Tell them what you want to fish for and they will do it.
You're a good dude selling those for charity, I can safely say I would not do the same. Especially looking at how much they're going for, I'd for sure just keep it.
Fish at some of the rivers in Virginia.... Like the new river which is the oldest river in the u.s, or the James river, Potomac, little river and lots more
You need to go to Barkley Lake , or Kentucky Lake . I've caught monters there . Also a place called Linton ... You probably have already been I'm sure . Great Bass ...
Algonquin park (ontario) has god smallie fishing. Some other lakes are good largemouth and pike fishing (Charleston and Sharbot Lake). And you can't leave the Kawarthas out if youre talking bass and ontario
dear. I see that you have used many kinds of bait caster, it's really cool I am a inshore salt water angler working on shallow lures and all. I am recently very confused in a buying a new bait caster reel I am confused between Abu and 13 fishing concept. which one would give higher relaibility for salt water fishing
@jonb you should come to Jacksonville nc. I know it's a month later that this video was posted but believe it or not jacksonville nc has some great spots and rivers for bass fishing
Try the Tennessee river system. Kentucky lake is my favorite I've been to and I live near next to Tablerock and lake of the Ozarks so I'm used to good lakes.
The reel with the purple star drag (Shimano Metanium MGL is up to $6000. Impressive and how awesome that someone wants to donate to a good cause. Nice job Jon... :)
You should go to Central America were the have COLOSSAL BASS. There's this lake called Atitlan (In Guatemala) were they have 7 pound bass considered average. These are hybrid Largemouthes that they call, "Mojarra Negra". They were stocked in the 50s and something about the environment makes them BIG. Despite that you can a get a 5 Star hotel for 2 or 3 hundred bucks. Crystal water and beautiful Volcanoes all over.
You should come to Lake Viking, Missouri. I want to fish there but my great grandpa hasn't paid his dues in years. But I've seen fish and pictures of some of the fish he's caught. They have big catfish, big bass, huge crappie, and 10lb+ striped bass, and big bluegills. The crazy thing is he uses a little 3" paddle tale swim bait in shad color with a little black on the top. he catches all of the species of fish on the one Bait. He told me a story about how he hooked into a monster Catfish that pulled his 15' pontoon boat but he couldn't land it because he was using 4lb mono on an ultralight Rod and reel. Another place I know of is Pony Express Lake in Osborn, Missouri has 8lb+ largemouth. Another lake is Grindstone Reservoir in Cameron, Missouri I have friends that have caught 7&8lb largemouths.
If i ever get time to scout some bass lakes in alexandria mn ill let ya know. My rod and tackle pile now looks small. Only have like 20 rods. Wish i had caught the vid sooner. Need a decent baitcaster and knowing the money would go somewhere positive would have made me happy. Still smile thinking of the vid youngave that family hooks for the kids to fish with and wouldnt take the $.
Great cause, I just looked back at some of the bid prices and they were insane, 9500 for a metanium? Insane, but that's awesome that a youtube video can rally the entire fishing community to support a great cause. Keep up the good work and the good fishing, if youre ever in New Jersey, i would more than happily get you on a few amazing fishing lakes.
port orchard washington i have a few places where we can go fishing that have some huge bass in them i was on a rubber raft and hooked one that was able to pull me anf my dad around
you loved washington the last time you came so i think you should go again and for better fishing opportunitys i would check out eastern washington in the summer, it is a whole different world than western washington and in my opinion offers much better smallmouth and largemouth fishing opportunitys try lake chelan for some ultra clear water smallies
hey Jon b. you should come up to my neck of the woods. I'm in vestaburg Michigan we have a bunch of really good little lakes close by and a couple decent size lakes.
Come to Oregon I can plug you on some great bass fisheries. Caught a 4lb 3oz smallie in my local reservoir and a bunch of great private ponds that i have permission on where you can catch 30-50 a day easily
Washington DC to fish for large lower potomac smallmouths and snakeheads, Bahamas to catch bonefish, Charleston SC for redfish, trout and summer sharks. I can give you links to guides for the last two.

Hey John! Love your videos! You should definitely come to Sacramento California! Folsom lake has some epic bass!
Lake of the Ozarks for the "Big Bass Bash". Super fun and great fishing.
what type of line do you use on your casting reels? I've got braid on it now but it keeps digging underneath the spool and stopping short when I cast.
You should go to Central America were the have COLOSSAL BASS. There's this lake called Atitlan (In Guatemala) were they have 7 pound bass considered average. These are hybrid Largemouthes that they call, "Mojarra Negra". They were stocked in the 50s and something about the environment makes them BIG.

Great cause, I just looked back at some of the bid prices and they were insane, 9500 for a metanium?
