    Hey bamabass, great vid. I'm 53 years old . I grew up salt water fishing but gave it up. My son got me into fresh water fishing in 2015. I started out fishing for bass, did catch one on a swim bait with a 1000 size spinning reel on 6lb test. But since then I've been fishing ultralight, panfish basically. So I'm learning as much as I can on bass fishing. It's amazing how much we older folks can learn from a younger generation. Keep up the good info.

    I live in Virginia, my daughter was diagnosed with leukemia the end of last year and I lost my job so I started to fish for the peace and stress relief. She has become obsessed with fishing as well! She loves your videos cause you catch the big girls. We want to start filming some fishing stuff too, and I love to hunt big ones now. I'd like to know how you judge bodies of water etc. Like choosing where to fish. And more tips and in depth tips on how you fish the swimbaits. When I'm able to upgrade to some better tackle and get a camera, I'll send you a picture of us with a monster! She'll be excited to show you and Liz a picture!

    This is truly a great video. I grew up watching my dad catch big bass from the bank, many at night. He was very quiet, used large lures and was more concerned about quality over quantity. Thanks for sharing!

    I really like that you are making information-filled videos with a goal of passing on tips and tactics. Too many of the other guys are more concerned with their new cool kayak or trying to show off their own fish, rather than help others. Great job and thanks so much.

    Great tips. Love it. Im after my new pb. 10.75 lbs is my pb. People laugh at me because i will not take a picture of a bass unless it's 5lb are bigger. Great channel. I know you and your wife work hard to put out great content. I thank you for that. Ronnie. Texas.

      I caught him on a 5" swimmin caffeine shad on a underspin haha. Third time fishing it caught him on a flat next to rip rap. Baby bass colored and he hit it like a ton of bricks michigan fall on a nice day 67 degrees after a week of 42-

Only bass fish now . Your video is the best and most informative video ever. You have helped me understand the ways to be more successful than anyone else. Thanks my friend. Keep on , keeping on. My hats off to you.

  • @stephen3073
    @stephen3073 8 лет назад +1

    Excellent video! I dabble in bass fishing in North central Alabama, and you just increased my knowledge many years' worth. Thanks for that!
    My late old Uncle John was a great outdoorsman all his life, and he really knew his lore too. I remember him telling me, "You have to learn how to think like a fish", and I thought, that couldn't be too difficult! Fish aren't that bright.
    But what Uncle John finally got me to understand is, the intelligence of a fish is a different order of intelligence entirely, and the fish is the master of his environment, not you- Fish have their own sort of intelligence and discernment. So, thinking like a fish is actually an advanced cognitive exercise!

    It has been quit a while since I watched your videos. Targeting bid bass From Nov. Thru. Feb. is great. I live in south central Florida and we have monster bass. I agree with all your tips. I use a 10 inch plum worm and slow moving it across the bottom. 11 and a half pounder is my PB. My wife has caught an 8 pounder. We fish twice a week just for the fun. We are not tournament people. People like you we need more of.

  • @danthompson4879
    @danthompson4879 8 лет назад

    I just wanted to say that watching your vids over the last few months have helped me catch 2 of the top 4 bass I've caught in my life. I'm just a pond fisherman from the bank, and being up here in Iowa, we don't make bass as big as what you have in the south, so my story may not sound as impressive as others. My personal best were 2 bass that both weighed 5-13 each. I caught them about 5 years ago just a few days apart in the same pond. I mostly fish topwater frogs and always used Scum Frogs because they were cheap, thinking a frog is a frog. I always used ultralight rods, cheap ones, and Fireline. Then I found you. I started watching your vids, the crashes, the hanging frogs off limbs (awesome tip btw), the rod, reel, and line selection, just everything you've produced. I bought some baitcasters, bought some longer mh rods, upped the ante on line, and definitely discovered not all frogs are the same.
    Anyways, thanks to you, our wife and your vids, 2 months ago, I landed my PB, a 6-10 beast in my book! And just 2 days ago I landed a 5-7.
    Not bigguns compared to your bruisers, but huge in my record book. So, I just wanted to thank you and I will keep watching and learning from you!
    Thanks man!

  • @Dave-jy4wi
    @Dave-jy4wi 6 лет назад

    Love this video!! Butch Brown gave me some sage-like advice one time. He said that when big bass move into shallow water, they are much more likely to strike a big swim bait. He fishes the shallow water in the early morning and late evening and deep water other times. If you are fishing where they live, they most likely strike out of anger and the strikes are often just glancing blows. If you are fishing where they feed they commit to it and inhale the bait. He also said they get kinda stupid when they are in the shallows and feeding.

  • @lojofishing

    I took my little brother fishing once and he was not interested at all and wanted to go home. He ended up catching an 8-10lb monster bass!! It was honestly one of the coolest experiences I've ever seen. We was quite and him and I were a bit far. I tied on a deep diving red crankbait and that thing chomped on it so hardddd 🎣

    • @MrFishBlood
      @MrFishBlood 7 лет назад +4

      It is completely contradictory!
      One of the first tips he gives is to use the big worm... Because big bass are lazy, they want a big, easy meal... Cool, sounds like good advice, makes sense to me! Then he recommends buzz baits and big swim baits... Wait a minute... Buzz baits and swim baits are among the fastest baits there are! Which is it?
      I don't doubt he's caught some trophy bass with each of these techniques, but my guess is it had a lot more to do with other factors.
      Its the ad hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy... "A" happened right before "B", therefore "B" happened because of "A". Very flawed logic indeed.

His book, “In Pursuit of Giant Bass” is a good source of information on how to catch big bass. He outlines the mindset and methods he learned over years of catching giants. Good stuff brother. I’ve been following you & Liz for a couple of years. Enjoy your videos. Love top water fishing too. Thanks for all you do.

I'm hoping to get one this fall.

    Great video! I've caught half a dozen trophy bass since watching your videos, all due to your tips. I live in Georgia so your tips are especially applicable since both our conditions are similar year round

    Excellent Bro! Mid July I caught my P.B. @ midnight using an old Fred Arbogast 5/8oz Black Jointed Jitterbug. The Wyoming State Record Largemouth (caught in 1992) is 7lbs. 14oz at 21.5", and I'm determined to set the new State Record! I was sooo close this summer but with said P.B. weighing in at 7lbs 7oz at 21.75"!! Absolutely love topwater fishing's especially night fishing!! If ya haven't, try an Arbogast 5/8oz Jointed Jitterbug, by far my favorite trophy bass lure. I'm hooked.lol

    Leaving your drag set loose was what they use to say at lake fork. But know they know have strong strong and tight drag or they will have you hung up in the trees. So strong strong and tight drags is my suggestion 55yrs of experience has proven this. Everything else you said is spot on.

    Outstanding video, I wouldn't have thought of fishing in the winter because I would think the fish are lethargic but I'll be giving it a shot this winter! Thanks for the info, can't wait to hear more!

    I'm subscribed to a lot of channels that are popular and are home to some great anglers, however, BamaBass is by far the best! This video really is the good stuff and I've found it to be significantly helpful. Keep em coming.

    I go muskie fishing a few times per year when I go up to Minnesota and I still only have one! 44.5 incher which is decent but we are always targeting the 50 plus. It's definitely crazy how many early mornings and miles and miles of casting you do to just have the chance at a huge one. And I go with my bro in law who has caught 100 of them now so we are on the spots for sure. Its all he fishes for and he's going to be a guide when he retires. Big fish are where its at!

    Great information sir!!!! I started Bass fishing just this year and I documented every catch, tested every type of lures and bait (not all) and I am so glad that an excellent and an expereinced angler like yourself, is confirming some of my findings and teaching me some new tricks. I could not thank you enough. Great vid and I subscribed because of it :-)
