All lakes should have public launches like we have at ingalls harbor. You could put in 6 boats a time, and plenty of parking. Plus theres an ic machine right there and multiple hotels. Decatur did right there
Nothing gets me BRICKED UP on a Sunday like some fresh Zaldain content (don't tell my wife)!! I was watching this one on live and watching the weigh in and it was painfully close but it's been great seeing you crush this season and make so many grindy cuts. KEEP DOIN YOU AND F THE HATERS, Chris! LETS GO!
No, to be honest I talked to 3 reliable guys in practice who all said it was tough for them up there and that persuaded me to not try. Hamner made it work up there
My guy we need some more lure designs for bass mafia, you nailed the dangerous swimbait bro I have total confidence with that bait. You gonna make some glide baits or other things bro?
Hey Chris! Nice job bro. How shallow/deep do you typically spoon? I have some shallow lakes with absolute giants in it(and yes I'll be be throwing it on my float tube lol)
Looks like you have adjusted to the norm now with FFS. I get it but sure wish it was like the old days it was more fun fishing and watching let’s just tell it like it is!!!!
I use braid line to fluorocarbon line “leader”. A basic drop shot setup would be 10lb Seaguar Smackdown to 8lb Seaguar Invisx… and I tie an FG knot to connect the lines but a uni to uni knot is an easier knot to start with. You can use straight fluorocarbon only (without braid) but you’ll end up getting a lot of line twist.
You guys kill me. Man it’s so hot out here but I got on black jersey, black shorts, black shoes and a hood on my head so no heat can escape thru my head. What the hell! And all y’all say the same thing it’s so hot out here!
Hey brother, I wanted to post on your video cause I really enjoy the Bill podcast. It’s the only thing in bass fishing that I watch. I give zero F’s about watching scoopers and that’s what the tour is now it just looks like a bunch of douche bags out there to me but a huge fan of yours and just wanted to drop and drop a note. I didn’t even watch all this video but I know if I call Maid to help you and I’m just trying to do that.
Zal,
There's more to it than just catching fish. Your integrity is good for the sport. I enjoy watching you fish with passion.

My favorite angler. Great job buddy. Wheeler lake is tough I live about 20 minutes away.
Another killer on the water Charles vid! Are we you still with 13 Fishing?
Nope. Plan on using all different brands going forward to learn what’s best in the market
Too hot to Fish, but too cold at Home, keep grinding for that Win at Smith Lake!$!$

Totally understand Chris
Let’s go 🔥

Best RUclipsr Ever!!!
Thanks for the support, King!!
Did you ever go up to Guntersville dam and try scoping up there, there are giant smallmouth and largies
No, to be honest I talked to 3 reliable guys in practice who all said it was tough for them up there and that persuaded me to not try. Hamner made it work up there

I have some bait fuel in liquid and stick form. Which one would you recommend? Also you’re doing great this year.
Liquid for soft plastics and the stick for hard baits
I was out mowing the grass today 96* I was there in spirit bud 👍 good grind 👍
Man it’s been hot lately 🥵
Hey Chris! Nice job bro.
How shallow/deep do you typically spoon? I have some shallow lakes with absolute giants in it(and yes I'll be be throwing it on my float tube lol)
I’ve caught them as shallow as 2-3’ on shell bars with the Big Larry
@Zaldaingerous thanks bro! Tight lines!!!
What’s your chestie setup Chris?
I saw the new swim bait, i bought 7 , totally awesome !
Thanks for trying out the 7”… it catches!
Looks like you have adjusted to the norm now with FFS. I get it but sure wish it was like the old days it was more fun fishing and watching let’s just tell it like it is!!!!
Same brother but doing what I have to do to cash checks and make Classics.
I’m new to fishing What line do you use for your dropshots?
I use braid line to fluorocarbon line “leader”. A basic drop shot setup would be 10lb Seaguar Smackdown to 8lb Seaguar Invisx… and I tie an FG knot to connect the lines but a uni to uni knot is an easier knot to start with.
You can use straight fluorocarbon only (without braid) but you’ll end up getting a lot of line twist.
@@Zaldaingerous thank you brother!
Sorry you didn’t make the cut, gotta be tough. Keep at it, best of luck.
Ron
Thanks Ron 👊🏽
If it makes ya feel any better I absolutely feel the heat bruh, Smith is my home lake so....I understand lol
Texas has been just as brutal as Alabama was 🥵
Got my PB smallmouth yesterday 4.77lbs let's go
Niiiiice!!
That dont look like regular bait fuel ? Its darker and not as thick ??
A once famous man said "never give up."
Tough Luck Better Luck Next time!
Sorry bro. Always pulling for you. Next time 💪
Thanks Chris! All good!
1oz ouch that sucks!
I’ve missed two cuts this year. 1oz here and 11oz on the other. Stings
You guys kill me. Man it’s so hot out here but I got on black jersey, black shorts, black shoes and a hood on my head so no heat can escape thru my head. What the hell! And all y’all say the same thing it’s so hot out here!
Long sleeves and A hood keeps the sun from your skin

You got to adding stuff to that bait fuel it don’t look like the original color, give me the juice man you doctoring up that bait fuel?
So I am under the belief that there are invisible trolls 🧌 that feed on rod socks 10mm sockets and my f king measuring tapes 😂
