I like hearing about the whole journey and not just the fish catches. Theres a story to be told behind every video and you dont get everything when you just show the catches. Great video.
Great video brother. Watching them all from here in Azle, TX on Eagle Mountain Lake. In the video, everytime you said the light switch went off, your 1st light out of 3 above your bar in the kitchen would go off when you snapped your fingers. I'm loving it Homie!!@.
In many years of tournament fishing, I bet less than 10% of the time did things go like they did in practice. I love what your doing here because you are giving the whole picture not just how you caught fish.
So glad to listen and watch your videos. I've being not knowing what to do for years..other than going down a bank Wish I knew something different to do and making the right decisions
Great Video Todd!!! Coming from a Tourn. Angler for over 30 yrs., those decisions you make are so important to success. We all have those we wished we would have this or that. Keep Grinding Man!!
Knowing how/why you guys make the decisions you do is very interesting to me. These are the type of videos I'd like to see more often by many pro anglers. I really appreciated the depth of this video and how its pieced together with the on the water scenes. Great job Todd!
I really appreciate your honesty and the breakdown. Making adjustments on the fly is important and i am getting better at it by spending time on the water and by watching videos that give more information than fish catches. Thanks a lot for sharing!
Thanks for just hangin out and discussing how you were trying to figure it out. It's very interseting to me to figure out how to strikie that balance between over and under-thinking. As a pretty new fisherman, I tend to overthink and overplan and then not be willing to chuck the plan. Nice to see you adjust but also realize you may have been a little slower to adjust than you'de like but at least you adjusted instead of sticking with a plan that wasn't gonna work. I'm gonna try and do the same so thanks again.
I think in the long run that’s what makes us better, you don’t get to experience what you had by sitting at home or by thinking it just wasn’t meant to be, it’s imperative that we come away with something useful, the way you broke this down is also a tool we should be using to our advantage, thank you for that. Always great content man, much appreciated !!!
Totally on point. I don’t fish tournaments a lot anymore but this struck a nerve with me. I really never listened to dock talk as I wanted to find my own fish and figure out how to catch them. My problem was trying to make them bite to my strengths... Call it stubbornness I suppose. Nothing more satisfying than figuring them out and bringing 5 big ones to the scale or just crushing them fun fishing. Keep them coming as I’m waiting for your videos....
I'm not a tournament fisherman and have no desire to be, but I live for time on the water, and I feel like the way you approached fishing Hartwell is every bit as useful to guys like me! Good stuff Todd, glad you enjoy making these vids because I enjoy them and learn from them... keep 'em coming!
Todd great breakdown on how you approached the tournament. This will be a great resource for other anglers to look up to use for themselves or for yourself when you need something to look back on.
Great Info.......I would always beat my self up on the drive back home, Knowing that I was off on some minor details, That could have let me finish in the top 10, But man it feels good when everything comes together when your in the ZONE. Thanks for the Video.
These breakdown videos are the best. Please keep them coming. They really help with decision making and putting patterns together. Please make one on time management during a tournament.
Absolutely liked this video. I feel anyone would agree. Ya can't complain if an angler is willing to go through their thought process and decision making for their tournament. It's a great way to help people and teach them how to go hopefully figure things out and make their day as productive as possible.
What a great video. This is absolutely "the juice" especially for those of us who love to fish and can't seem to figure out what we might be doing wrong.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! That’s what I come to this channel for! You make me think. I respect your ability and confidence to figure out a lake. I learned from you that I don’t have to try to outfish the sticks on a lake doing what the sticks do. That’s a good way to lose. I need to be open to what’s happening on the lake and find a way to make it happen.
Great video. Explaining the why, not talked about much. Many videos show fish catches and how to tactics, but the why to decision making is not discussed often and may be the most crucial in tournaments.
Thanks Todd!! I really dig your channel because you keep it 100% real, and share valuable info!! This is the kind of info that anglers need.Guys who can't afford Live Scope or have $10,000 to spend on graphs. Especially weekend warriors like myself. Keep it up man!!
I’m here for this. I commented on one of Hallman’s videos about doing this. Computer breakdown, practice breakdown, tournament breakdown on 1 video and explain what he was expecting vs what he got on the water and what dictated his choices. I’m also still waiting for part 3 of the frog videos (maybe I missed it) but great video here.
Love the video Todd, gives great insight into the tourney thought processes and decisions. So much better than just fish catching videos, keep ‘em coming and good luck!
Awesome video Todd! I enjoy your videos anyways but this was very informative and I really appreciate you taking the time to break it down this way for us!
love this video. Just a "scull session" - great insight and portrayal of "afterthoughts" post tourny. Your thinking outloud helps me think also. Great content Todd!!!
I'm watching between the OU vs Texas game during the commercials. Haha! I love this. You are answering so many questions for me. I feel like by you breaking it down, you may get something out of it too. Thanks!!
Keep doing what your doing brother. Today I figured it out. And saw the way the spotted Bass were setting up compared to the white perch. Spot every drop. That was fun!!!
What you said it's true? Figuring it out during practice to tournament. Adapting and realizing whats going on. Keep these video up. Some of your videos, you should link the lures your using. Good luck in your future tournament. Come visit MN someday. =)
Great great info about this lake. Hartwell is my home lake and I struggle just like you. I just don’t have the technology to fish those cane piles in the summer moths. Like you said, it’s like fishing the abyss. So I normally stick to the upper end of the lake. Again, thanks for the info on how you broke it down.
Castle rock This is really critical information! Understanding the method of thinking and action.Even more so than what I see on Bass U sometimes. Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
Great information... love the video... I find that on blue back herring lakes on cloudy days and even more so on rainy days fish bottom bouncing baits in those same areas...
Love this video. I struggle on practice days to decide between hooking fish and shaking them off. Hard for me to gauge the size of fish when shaking off. So while I want to save fish for tournament days it’s nice to find areas that hold decent size fish. Plus most of my tournaments are 1 or 2 day events and not necessarily needing 3-4 days worth of fish. Kn a future video would love to hear any thoughts or elaborating on how you view this or decide on this.
Oh my GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My buddies and me talk about this more than anything and how we shake fish off more than anyone we know. We have lots of thoughts on these. Its to long to write out and don't know if I want to make a video. LOL I would love to help you out if you have another way I could get it across to you. I suggest shaking off fish every chance you get.
Love this type of video? I had a tournament like this once. I got lucky and figured it out early in the day and ended up with a 17lb. Sack. Along with the one 4 lber on Saturday ended up with enough to win.
Love this stuff.. Would have loved to have heard how u would have done things differently, baits, techniques etc.. Good luck on Neely Henry, hope to see you at Cherokee. Maybe u will know your schedule for next year by then.. Catch em up in Georgia!
This is interesting, I fish most herring lakes and this technique you discovered is used at other herring lakes around, more north west of Hartwell..interesting that you found it on Hartwell, dont hear that alot from that lake!
Killer Video. This is the juice. like u said so many people get caught up in baits and waypoints and forget to fish the moment or what I call fish the fish.
Great video 👍 bud. Looking forward to Neely Henry tournament myself,it will be first open I've gotten to fish in awhile. Maybe I get lucky and draw you out. Like all you guys videos.
Great video.. being a hartwell local I can't think of to many multi day tournaments won shallow on hartwell no matter what time of year. I thought Jason Christie was gonna pull it off. But lost it on the last day. The shallow fish always seems to be finicky and light sensitive it drives me crazy.
This was a great video. I would love to see you go back ana analyze the Raburn Open as well. I'll definitely look for the next one of these. Thanks, man.
Kind of curious how your buddies did compared to you(Upshaw,Hallman,etc..)on that tournament..They had an advantage with Livescope fishing the deeper stuff..Just curious🤔!Great content!
Lol your videos strike me me as hilarious because I can see how much you love fishing. I can relate to your thoughts and your process. Good good stuff ! Don't let technology beat you cause them dudes aren't better than you.
You do give a lot of juice also that guy that rolled up on you at Rayburn was in the wrong no ethics. With Humminbird coming out with helix g4 and solix g3 which is the best unit for clarity. Right now I have the solix 12 g2 and looking at buying a new unit and was wondering your input if humminbrid has change the system a lot. Ott said in on of his videos he could tell the difference in the clarity between the helix g2 and helix g3. Thanks for the info and videos.
I'm not a fan of the Solix it was the same technology as the onix and mine and everyone else always messed up. I like the Helix and there is a bit of difference in the G2 and G3.
Todd, Are you going to invest in the new technology now that you saw firsthand what that does for the fisheman? Also, sometimes things just don't click like we want them too. Thank you for your insight on Hartwell. I fish it twice a month for both Stipers and Bass...I am learning a lot from both you and C.P. keep them coming.!!!!!
This def better than just seeing fish catches. I think u need to go in more depth of conditions meaning weather, water conditions, why did u choose to go north/south. Maybe even as far as wearing a chesty while your idling marking waypoints and why u marked it. I know I have helix's like u but I struggle w what exactly is a fish. I don't ever see those perfect tic tacs as they say lined up on top of a point or on the bottom, so maybe add that in to the video.
Not sure, I just would have changed around more until I found something that would have worked. Problem was I didn't have this happen so I'm not sure if I would have changed that much in practice. If you noticed no one was on the bank so they must have been tough on everyone.
Todd many anglers on Hartwell Hartwell don't have livescope! One that is expensive. Most have nice graphs and use them like yourself. Don't sell yourself short!
You know I get a chance to fish with a bunch of great guys... (not you though! ;) ). I've always said, don't show me where you catch em'. Tell me how you think about catching em'. This is a 10 out of 10 Todd. Thank you! J.E.
So do you recommend hooking some fish in each section of the lake so you do know the size. How deep were you fish in your Carolina rig and could you have used a football jig. Hate C rig
The c rig almost always out produces the jig everywhere I go. Plus it was about getting bites and that thing gets bites faster and more often. The hooking fish thing for me is way more complicated and also simple. I rarely fish baits that just catch small ones so a bite is a bite to me. What I throw will catch 5#s and 2#s. Plus here’s the real reason I’ve never had too many spots. If I have 20 spots then I want 30 you can never have too many so a bite is a bite.
Todd, great video thanks for sharing. I would love to see a video on the live scope VS the 360 you have. You said this prevented you from fishing that pattern. What does the live scope do that your 360 won’t?
I have an old 360 on there that broke months ago after one use. I haven’t taken it off so I have know idea what a 360 will do but they are definitely different in comparison.
This is some good stuff in hearing the real life thoughts of guys like you. So, does this make you go buy a Gramin Livescope? You see some guys with multiple different units up front and there seems to be a good reason for it. I know I can't afford it but looks like there is a rationale for it.
Great video, as usual. Don’t you have a 360 on the front? If so, just curious why that didn’t allow you to compete on them cane piles. I don’t have 360 or livescope so I don’t know the answer and why I’m asking. Good luck on the next one.
@@toddcastledinefishing5924 well that’s a good reason. Same reason I have. Always rooting for you and hope I see you on Rayburn one day. Best of luck to you.
I like hearing about the whole journey and not just the fish catches. Theres a story to be told behind every video and you dont get everything when you just show the catches. Great video.

Great video. Finding fish is my weakness. This insite to your thought process could really help me. Thanks
Awesome video. You are one of the few that addresses the mental side of figuring them out.
In many years of tournament fishing, I bet less than 10% of the time did things go like they did in practice. I love what your doing here because you are giving the whole picture not just how you caught fish.

Enjoyed the decision making process
Thanks
Todd great videos. I love your breakdowns of the day you had on the water. Your breakdown of Hartwell is a example that is sometimes not meant to be.
Thank you
Great video Todd going to Hartwell this weekend to fish our clubs classic hopefully this will help me out. Shallow is more my style anyway.
Good luck!
I'm watching between the OU vs Texas game during the commercials. Haha! I love this. You are answering so many questions for me.
I feel like by you breaking it down, you may get something out of it too. Thanks!!

Love it! Enjoy hearing the thought process and eliminating water.
Yes! Thank you!
Great video Todd! Thanks for sharing!

Todd, I like the video, it ties it all together. Plus it gives the viewer a learning experience.
Thanks 👍
Good insights Todd. Thx for sharing.
Welcome
Great great info about this lake. Hartwell is my home lake and I struggle just like you. I just don’t have the technology to fish those cane piles in the summer moths. Like you said, it’s like fishing the abyss. So I normally stick to the upper end of the lake. Again, thanks for the info on how you broke it down.
There was a lot more to that north end than I realize its just hard to figure out that much water in a few days.
Great video. Pulling for you on your journey.
Thank you so much!
Castle rock This is really critical information! Understanding the method of thinking and action.Even more so than what I see on Bass U sometimes. Thanks for taking the time to put this together!
It was fun to make hopefully the others turn out good
Good Video Buddy...Thanks for sharing your insight
You bet
One of the best videos ever. I really enjoyed it.
Check out the other "Recap" and "Juice" videos they are just like them.
Great information... love the video... I find that on blue back herring lakes on cloudy days and even more so on rainy days fish bottom bouncing baits in those same areas...
problem was I was fishing 1 to 2 foot of water
Copy that... I appreciate the reply... continue to do these videos it's like gold.. thank you
Love the step by step thought process walk thru
Thanks

I’ll do one after every open
This is interesting, I fish most herring lakes and this technique you discovered is used at other herring lakes around, more north west of Hartwell..interesting that you found it on Hartwell, dont hear that alot from that lake!
Really, heck maybe its not the best pattern but I think there is something to it.
Makes complete sense to me, I've left places before knowing what I did wrong, but figuring it out too late!
happens a lot
If you don’t continue to learn, why get out of bed. Thank you for the honesty, learning from you. Appreciate it man! Stay real.
Always!
Killer Video. This is the juice. like u said so many people get caught up in baits and waypoints and forget to fish the moment or what I call fish the fish.
Exactly
Great video Todd. Love the real life thoughts and perspectives. 🎣
I appreciate that!
Great video 👍 bud. Looking forward to Neely Henry tournament myself,it will be first open I've gotten to fish in awhile. Maybe I get lucky and draw you out. Like all you guys videos.
Good luck!
Great video.. being a hartwell local I can't think of to many multi day tournaments won shallow on hartwell no matter what time of year. I thought Jason Christie was gonna pull it off. But lost it on the last day. The shallow fish always seems to be finicky and light sensitive it drives me crazy.
No doubt!
great video ,l think everyone who fish's has that thought going on in there head. Keep'em coming.
Thanks 👍
This was a great video. I would love to see you go back ana analyze the Raburn Open as well. I'll definitely look for the next one of these. Thanks, man.
thank you
Kind of curious how your buddies did compared to you(Upshaw,Hallman,etc..)on that tournament..They had an advantage with Livescope fishing the deeper stuff..Just curious🤔!Great content!
Andrew made the Top 10 and he livescoped every fish. Hallman did OK and he livescoped every fish as well.
@@toddcastledinefishing5924 Awesome 👌!
Lol your videos strike me me as hilarious because I can see how much you love fishing. I can relate to your thoughts and your process. Good good stuff ! Don't let technology beat you cause them dudes aren't better than you.
Yea but sometimes the advantages are hard to overcome
Thanks Todd. Good puzzle piece video. Keep em comin! 👊🏼
Thanks, will do!
Great Video Todd! More like this one would be greatly appreciated!
You got it!
Thanks for the breakdown. Keep them coming!
You bet!
You do give a lot of juice also that guy that rolled up on you at Rayburn was in the wrong no ethics. With Humminbird coming out with helix g4 and solix g3 which is the best unit for clarity. Right now I have the solix 12 g2 and looking at buying a new unit and was wondering your input if humminbrid has change the system a lot.

Holey jeans, hoodie, no sponsor junk all over, you're growin on me 👊🏾
Now this was a great breakdown! Thank you.
Very welcome!
To me one of the hardest decisions is whether to bare down on a spot or not ..one thing to remember about heron fish ..its easy to fish under them
Trust me I know
Great info. Love the topic
Glad you enjoyed it!
Todd, Are you going to invest in the new technology now that you saw firsthand what that does for the fisheman? Also, sometimes things just don't click like we want them too. Thank you for your insight on Hartwell. I fish it twice a month for both Stipers and Bass...I am learning a lot from both you and C.P. keep them coming.!!!!!
Will do, still deciding on the live scope but I've been debating it for months now.
Awesome video Todd. I know its not easy attaining all this info. Does your 360 not allow you to see fish like livescope? Thank again
I don’t have 360 it looks like I do but it doesn’t work
This def better than just seeing fish catches. I think u need to go in more depth of conditions meaning weather, water conditions, why did u choose to go north/south. Maybe even as far as wearing a chesty while your idling marking waypoints and why u marked it. I know I have helix's like u but I struggle w what exactly is a fish. I don't ever see those perfect tic tacs as they say lined up on top of a point or on the bottom, so maybe add that in to the video.
Ok, sometimes its hard to do all that while practicing but Im getting better. I get so focused on fishing I forget the camera is even on sometimes.
Good stuff man. Keep em coming.
Thanks
Great video and great information keep it coming.
You got it!
Loved this Todd, thank you
your welcome
Wow! Great content right here!
Appreciate it!
Great video! Love this type of breakdown. If you would have learned this in practice, what bait change would you have made?
Not sure, I just would have changed around more until I found something that would have worked. Problem was I didn't have this happen so I'm not sure if I would have changed that much in practice. If you noticed no one was on the bank so they must have been tough on everyone.
like the way you told the story of finding and not knowing you were probably on some good fish keep it up
Thanks, will do!
This week on 'Inside the Mind of Todd Castledine'... Great video, thoroughly enjoyed it. Looks like you're on your way to 10k subscribers 💪
So close!
keep bring'n it Todd!
will do
Awesome video....how do you like the mega 360 and do you use it often... thanks man go get em.
My 360 on my boat is broken so I have no idea how good it is, I just havnt taken it off.
Good stuff man.........I assume Livescope may be in your near future?
Possibly!
Todd many anglers on Hartwell Hartwell don't have livescope! One that is expensive. Most have nice graphs and use them like yourself. Don't sell yourself short!
Well talking to the guys in the house I knew what I was up against is all Im gonna say
You know I get a chance to fish with a bunch of great guys... (not you though! ;) ). I've always said, don't show me where you catch em'. Tell me how you think about catching em'. This is a 10 out of 10 Todd. Thank you! J.E.
Thanks JE

I know so would live scope but they all cost money, when will it ever end?????
Right , and the prices keep going up and up .
~4:30 you said “some of them have cans on them.” I don’t understand what you meant by a “can,”
Love the content. Fav video to date
They are sort of like marker bouys, they mark really shallow water.
This is some good stuff in hearing the real life thoughts of guys like you. So, does this make you go buy a Gramin Livescope? You see some guys with multiple different units up front and there seems to be a good reason for it. I know I can't afford it but looks like there is a rationale for it.
I'm still trying to rationalize it myself, who knows.
Which topwater were you throwing? Great content.

Thank you! This was as honest a breakdown as I have ever heard. Keep up the good work and keep the content coming!
I appreciate that!
Great video, as usual. Don’t you have a 360 on the front? If so, just curious why that didn’t allow you to compete on them cane piles. I don’t have 360 or livescope so I don’t know the answer and why I’m asking. Good luck on the next one.
I have an old 360 from years ago that I finally put back on my boat. After 1 day it burned out on me, never took it off.
@@toddcastledinefishing5924 well that’s a good reason. Same reason I have. Always rooting for you and hope I see you on Rayburn one day. Best of luck to you.
