Matt's GIANT Crankbait Bass!! Full Catch Footage!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Matt hooks up on this GIANT Bass almost a year to the day after Tim's MONSTER catch! We traveled several thousand miles, drove for hours on the water, and risked an INSANE lightning storm, just for a shot at a fish like this!
Smallmouth are AMAZING predators. If you've never had a chance to target them, put it on your bucket list! Smallmouth bass have traditionally been targeted with finesse tackle but that is changing. These fish are aggressive feeders and have no issue eating crankbaits, swimbaits, topwater, and a variety of other reaction baits.
Our Equipment...
Crankbait- Deep X 300 (PM Kisyu Ayu): bit.ly/2sSQHpt
Crankbait- Deep Six (Biwako See Through Chart): bit.ly/2A3clKP
Upgraded Hooks- Owner ST-56: bit.ly/2cVg7xW

Upgraded Split Rings - Hyperwire Size 3: bit.ly/2v8ArBX
Matt's Crankbait Setup...
Rod- G Loomis 845 CBR IMX Pro: bit.ly/2og0BmK
Reel- Shimano Aldebaran 50 in 7:1 Ratio: bit.ly/2fdX1Uy
Line- Sunline Assassin 12 lb Fluorocarbon: bit.ly/2h4LNjm
Scale - (Highly Recommended) Salter Brecknell: bit.ly/2f7QgQ9
This bass weighed 6.54 lbs on the certified Salter Brecknell Scale. She was sitting in a school of fish on a current break. If you catch closely you'll see how quickly the water was moving past the boat while we used the Ultrex Trolling Motor (link below) on Spot Lock to stay in place and make receptive casts to the same spot. While we don't show the entire clip, we had caught approximately 15 fish in the same exact spot BEFORE the big one bit! This is classing schooling behavior and something we've covered at length in other videos.

My mom is 73 yrs old & loves your videos, love you guys
Tim’s smallie and yours now Matt are the biggest I’ve ever seen. Always learning something from this channel.
Matt, congrats on such a great fish! Thanks so much for all the great videos. I don't comment often, but do appreciate the content from you guys better than pretty much any other channel I watch. PLEASE never get into the gimmicky stuff that certain other fishing channels seem to feel the need to show. Keep up the great work!
Hey Matt, if you would, next time show us the ride in and what's it like getting to this spot, that would be exciting to a bunch of us.
They show the ride in on another video can't remember name but Tim's in a big white coat I think. There's logs floating 40 foot long in there
Couldn't have happened without yours and Tim's dedication. Great fish and so deserved.
YOU guys rocking it in my Backyard! Epic times running threw MASS Timber! Cheers, jd
What lake is this?
Nice catch!
It looks more like a grouper than a fresh water bass. Thanks for the share.
awesome. just caught my pb smallie a couple weeks ago. 5.4 pounds out of lake Erie from the shore. love the videos. learn so much from you guys. tight lines
That was a really gorgeous fish. Congrats.
3:08 makes it look like a 10 pounder! Heck of a fish! Congrats!
Nice smallie! Glad I lived near Lake Erie so I didn't have to drive a thousand miles to catch one approaching that size!
Nice catch I applaud you that body of water is difficult to fish. For a couple of guys not from the area you do really good on this reservoir. Enjoy the videos keep up the good work.
What is the name of the resovoir?
Great fish...gotta love spring smallies
Congratulations brother. Dam nice fish. Beautiful coloration. Rewarded once again for pushing the limits of both man and machine. Thanks for sharing.
Great smallmouth Matt! Thanks!
Awesome, articulate, informative and a blast to watch. As always thank you, but be safe!
What an awesome smallmouth. Like you you always say big baits big fish!!!
Forget the bass. What a beautiful backdrop!
Nice smallie Matt. Appreciate all the vids and info that you guys put out
Nice color on that fish! A real beauty
Congrats Matt, beautiful fish!!! Be careful out there.
Sounds like the perfect place for a kayak
Beautiful fish Matt congrats!!!
Man that was a beautiful fish! Good deal Matt! Awesome vid bro
Beauty of a fish. Congrats. Well deserved.
Wow. That's an amazing fish. And beautiful.
Congratulations Matt
Congrats man, u guys are always teaching and pulling great fish 💯🙏🏼
Congratulations bud. Awesome fish & video.
Definitely a destination of choice, not convenience, but WOW! the fish in that place are unreal.
What a beautiful fish
Thank you for sharing! Awesome video!
Awesome fish Matt, love watching u and Tim tearing it up, I take all info from u guys and it works, cut boot tail off kietech and put it on a chatterbait like you said in another video caught my biggest of the yr, just shy of 6lbs large mouth not a giant compared to your fish but a giant in the lake I was on, keep the info coming we love it, keep fishing
That is an absolute beautiful fish
Didn’t think there were any lakes in California where you can catch smallies that big. Only lake that has the near by is Shaver, and I’ve never seen one over 1.5lbs. Great catch!
Hell yeah! Matt the monster mauler!!
I really envy you guys, especially your friendship.
That was a huge smallie!!!!!!
Nice fish Matt, great video
That is a beauty! Putting in the work!
Congrats Matt that was a huge smallie !
Beautiful fish!
Love the SMB with them spots. Caught a small one like that here in a NJ river.
What up guys I love smallmouth bass that's a tank!!!!
when are we gonna see the Tactical Bassin boys start chasing a RECORD SMALLIE?! They've caught record spots and largies now we wanna see them add a record smallie for the RECORD TRIFECTA !!!
Matthew Carvill They would have to fish the great lakes to find a world record.
@@will.o7002 Wrong. Right here in central California lake Pardee has world record smallies. Promise you that.
@@thisislargemouth5566 No doubt there's a big one in there, but the St.Laurance River and a few of the Great Lakes hold a higher probability of catching a true giant. Just look at the B.A.S.S event held in Waddington NY last year.
William Ouimet
Or lake st. Clair. I am sure there are giant smallies everywhere, but that area is famous for holding them.
NICE DUDE!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!
Absolute monster
Beauty of a fish Matt! I need to find this spot and helicopter in to it
3 dislike there’s nothing to dislike about this video smh haters will hate
Jairo Zarate ngl I think there accidents everyone ima while I’ll go to leave a vid and I disliked it on accident
The Aldebarens have a very smooth drag as far as baitcasters go. I've got some pretty high end baitcasters, but the Aldebaren, though not the most expensive, just seems smoother than others. Not exactly sure why that is, but I'm more comfortable playing bigger fish on 110's with Katsuage hooks on an Aldebaren than most other reels.
Love you guys lol AWESOME
That's one the most beautiful smallies I've ever seen, good job man, once in a lifetime smallie man. At least here in Virginia it is.
LIP RIPPERZ T.V.
You have South Holston lake in your backyard. Lots of 5 to 7lb fish in that lake. Legit chance at an 8. 25+ bags of smallmouth are common there.
Smith Mountain lake is full of giant smallies too. When I say giant i mean 5 plus pounders. A truly giant and trophy small mouth anywhere in the country man. NEVER fished the South Holsten river but if you got a chance at catching a 8.25 pound smallie I will be fishing it soon.
DAMN!!!!! Nice catch!
What a beast!
Thats a giant!!!!
Great vids tho keep it up knowledge is succes
Can y’all make more just fishing videos plz bc I love halls channel
Freaking monster. Good job!!
thats a nice fish
I'd love to see another combo rod an reel vid,but maybe do it even more budget style being young with kids but loveing fishing makes it hard to obtain quality gear I know I always find myself trying to slowly get stuff at a time but patience is hard sometimes when ya dream of catching bass daily 😂😂😂
I was up there with ya. caught a 5lber that day. great fishing
Is your grip issue fatigue or pain? When you customize do you go to a mid or fat? Or shape? I've had a lot of relief with a mid and tacky but fat seems to make it worse!
Btw Tim, you owe us two stories now :-)... 'Last year's PB Smallmouth' and 'Why you fish all the way back to the boat!' Over the years I've caught so many fish going from deep horizontal to vertical within just a few feet of the boat. I caught an 8lb spot at the boat that hit me so hard I had to disengage it, feed it re-engage and she still took me to the bottom in 30' of water. I went from Flatline to 120bpm and almost wet myself....
LOL! Good Eye :)
Beautiful Fish!!! Cheers!! :))
Nice dude!
Nice bro!
Awesome !
Ever tried hitting a highland lake like Dale Hollow for a giant smallie?You guys would do well right now!
Actually, yes. Matt and a buddy fished the Billy Westmoreland last year and finished 2nd. Dale Hollow is amazing!!
Dale hollow? No. You need to go to South Holston in E Tn. Legit chance at an 8+. A 25+ bag of smallmouth is common there.
Love to.see u guys catch a big one! Honezt emotions. G=eat job!
I didn't know brownies would eat a crank that big
lojo.fishing 😐
lojo.fishing Why wouldn't they? If it fits....
My first smallmouth was a 2 pounder caught on a texas rigged 6" Berkley Powerbait Lizard and he swallowed it.
lojo.fishing they eat big baits too. They eat roman made negotiators etc
catch em on musky lures all the time
That's a beautiful smallmouth. My goal this year has been to catch a 6+lb smallmouth. I had one on, in a tournament of all places and it jumped and spit the crank halfway to the boat. The way I know it was 6lb or close to it is I caught a 4lber right before it and it looked tiny in comparison!
Show us your custom grip and why it helps your hand pain, that interests me
Most likely would me too. Bad bad bad wrist pains anymore. Painter and detailer by trade. Hurts my wrists just using any old rod. I use all left handed reels too.
Awsome smallmouth where were you guys fishing at. I your channel awesome technical info!!!!
You sure that wasn’t a rare species of freshwater dolphin 😂
I’ll be bank fishing tomorrow at a spot where they have smallmouth. Every cast could be my PB smallmouth cause I’ve never caught one.
Awesome! #TB!!
Awesome catch and amazing scenery! God has truly made a beautiful planet!
That was awesome 👏 now I’m off to the office 😭
God is good
What a beautiful fishery. Not one other boat or insane amounts of garbage floating in the water. Lake Chickamauga my local lake is a complete trash compared to the places you guys fish.
Less fishing pressure up your odds that's for sure.
What y'alls thoughts on the trapper tackle treble hooks, are they a waist of time or do they work? I know you guys get a lot of comments, i hope you see this one because I really need some good advice on this one. Love your videos keep them coming.
Enorabuena eso es un blak Blas aquí en España son enanos a comparación con aquellos un saludo
Do you guys ever fish lake Pillsbury,
Sweet
Where are you guys at.......Pardee?? Looks like Sierra range.
Is that GoPro6 audio?! And bro that smallie was a damn pig! Nice catch
caught my PB last night only 2lb 13oz im still new to small mouth
Really nice fish matt! quick question for you, I want to get someone like yours or Tims opinion on this and I'm trying to decide whether to spend a ton of money on a few high-end combos like GLX´s and Aldebaran´s so 800-900 dollar combos but only be able to afford 3-4 rods, or buy 4-500 dollar combos and be able to afford 7 or 8 rods. I had to sell almost all of my gear and am getting back into things so your opinion on this would be much appreciated.
I would be pretty stoked to catch a giant like that but they look at it like it was just another fish
Matt, what size/brand of trebles would you switch to on a Vision 110/100 +1?
Nice fish. Matt we need to buy you a belt buddy. JS!
😂 They dont work, Brother! I need suspenders but I just havent come to terms with it 😂
nice fish ! what lake is this
Slaunch!!!!!
Nice👍👍👍👍
Hey guys, can you guys do a video on gimmicky bass products or baits?
You guy's have been in the business for a while and I'm sure you've seen it all.
What state is That? Looks awesome.
Last time I was there I blew my starter and was stuck down by the dam the whole weekend, we caught 100s but nothing over a 1lb. Buddy rolls up behind us during sunday club tourney and sticks a 6.5 on a spot we fished all weekend by the dam...
Super ilove my fish shekar
Good lord
GIANT...
What was the weight on that first fish Matt caught, I heard 3.54 but I KNOW that's not right man
Great fish. Seems you have also taken the "How to try to make a fish look bigger on film" class.
You got it down bro, arms locked straight out in front, but you've taken the advanced class, you've managed to show only a couple knuckles while holding that thing! Removes all sense of scale.
Of course there is the hang it on the scale part... that helps with size reference 🤣
TacticalBassin,
Sorry, after reading my comment it sounded kinda mean, not my intention.
Being as big as it is and still using that method kinda detracts from it's actual size I think. No scale reference plus the attempt to make it look bigger make it seem smaller than it actually is. (Of course I'm talking screen shots or photos here). Nothing can hide it's true heft in video!
Cheers.
It's all good 👍 That fish wasn't straight armed... she's held out but not straight armed and unfortunately you only get one shot... no clue what the footage holds until it's over. Smallies are sooo hard to get a good shot of.
