0:45...Whew! I lived in Florida for 8 years, fished all the time, and I've never caught a largemouth that big! I did catch a tarpon close to that size in Key West, but that's a beaut! I live near Pittsburgh now, so I'll never see fish like that again until I can convince my wife to move to Florida with me.
Capt CC cant tell you how much I love your videos. Best instruction videos Ive ever seen for shiner fishing. I am headed to Rodman next week and we are going to lock through from the St Johns. Would you recommend the north of south side of Rodman to free line the shiners? Are you usually in the lake or southwest of Kenwood Landing. Maybe we will see you out there. I look forward to getting a trip booked with you. I used to pull shiners in Sante Fe when I was in High School. I still have my original 5500 great reel. Thanks for any input.
Sorry to get back to you so late David! Thank you so much for watching my videos and I'm glad your enjoying them! Your trip may all ready be over by the time you read this but the southwest end heading toward Cypress Bayou has been good!
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler you guide? for me and my 10 yr old son? were in wisconsin planning orlando trip and need to fish fish for some buckets like that!!!!!
@@tonescott414 Yes I do! I still have a few days open in April and I'm starting to book May now. I can be reached at (386)325-3743 and leave a message. May take me a couple of days to get back to you. Super busy!

We do have really big bass here in Florida and at one time our state was the best place to go to try and catch a trophy bass over 10 pounds! But now the Florida strain of bass has been transplanted all over the country so trophy bass can be caught in many states now! As for my success I've been a trophy bass guide for almost 40 years now and over those years I've perfected my live bait tactics down to a science! It's never easy catching big trophy bass and it takes a lot of hard work! I'm so busy doing charters this time of year that I only get maybe four to six days a month to go out and film for my fishing channel! But to answer your question I think all those guide trips helps me stay on the fish and that's what enables me to be successful on the few days I get to go!
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler I ACTUALLY GOT A 25 IN HER IN WALLINGFORD CT AT A GOLF COURSE BUT NO SCALE HAHA IT LOOKED LIKE A FOOTBALL TAKE CARE I HOPE TO GET A CHANCE TO FISH WITH YOU SOMETIME JUST IVE BEEN HAVING ALOT OF MEDICAL THINGS PEACE FROM DA NORTHEAST THE BEARDED FISHERMAN!!
Never really been interested in tournament fishing! A lot of pressure there and that's a whole different style of fishing! I like guiding much better! I love meeting new fisherman and seeing their face light up when they catch the largest bass of their life! I love it and it never gets old! I have a lot of friends that fish tournaments and I did fish two of them years ago just to see what it was like! We came in second in both of those events!
I'm 38 been fishing most of my life for largemouth I've only caught 1 10 pounder 😊 those you caught are beautiful ❤️
These videos keep me going every weekend !
Thanks Kyle and thank you so much for watching!

What convinced you to move to Pittsburgh! It gets freezing cold up there! Lol! You need to move back!
Where do you get your shiners?
I mainly catch my own! But you can get bait at Hawthorne bait in Hawthorne and Bald Eagle Bait and Tackle in Keystone.
Huge Bass. Way to go!
Thanks buddy!

Are the bass in Florida just huge? How is this guy consistently catching what is a lifetime-best for most people elsewhere?
