  • Lunkerhunt spider lure got me this HUGE bass on a Missouri farm lake. Owner didn't think there was something this big in there! Thought I was exaggerating.

    Sorry for no responses to everyone who has left a comment. I'm barely able to keep track of my RUclips channel all. Never really had comments from people I don't know but I thought this would be enjoyable for some of the fish hunters out there. As you can see I don't post much, but I hope to start posting more fishing and travel stuff. Got a great new kayak last year and I've had it out on ponds/lakes, but finally took it on a float trip. Moving water is the BEST! Anyway Good luck out there everyone! CATCH EM UP!

If you get the hook it's actually going to be better being retired.

    • @ThingIAm
      @ThingIAm  2 года назад

      Thanks. I don't use a leader. I'm not that advanced yet or whatever I guess. I have a hard time making myself take time to do time-consuming extra stuff to go fishing cause mostly I get a little 1 hour window here or two hour window there and the time just disappears! Sounds stupid but I enjoy being out in the open trying to catch as much as catching. Especially in nice natural areas. So i get the lure on the line and get to pitching before time runs out. Definitely not the smartest approach to fishing I know. LOL!

    • @ThingIAm
      @ThingIAm  2 года назад +1

      Yah I know the line probably wouldn't snap but my mind was racing through how old the line is, if I had pulled too many snagged lures loose or worn it down, reasons it might snap and how much it would suck if it did at that moment. I'm not the top notch, best gear, restring every time I fish guy and not really that experienced yet. Totally wasn't expecting a giant and I really wanted to get it in my hands. LOL!

  • @kerrysanders6668
    @kerrysanders6668 2 года назад

    Just a tip: you're actually using that baitcaster with the wrong hand. It works this way, but if you're right-handed, you're meant to use a left-side reel on a caster. Helps a lot when you have lures that you need to retrieve as soon as they hit the surface. Otherwise, you have to cast, switch hands, then retrieve. If you're curious, I highly recommend trying the opposite side handle and see how you like it. I started out with handle on the right (I'm right-handed) and got one on the left, like it MUCH better.

      As I've said to several I'm not a great experienced, or probably even very good fisherman. But I've had some luck with the spider other than the couple biggies I've posted videos about. In the right circumstances I've gotten a good amount of smaller bass and even gotten a couple big bluegill with appetites above their size. The one with the white underside never got a bite. But the one brown on top with a dark underside did well. Bought a full black one to try this year. I'm looking forward spring to see how many more big bullfrogs I catch with it. If I'm not catchin' bass. Did you see my bullfrog video on the spider?
