Thanks for the great info on cold water fishing, down here in Texas it's really slowed down. Need all the help I can get right now!! Gonna try your 4 S-tips next time I go out!
I heard a pro saying to fish in the middle of the day because the water is warmed from the sun. Also to use bigger baits because bass will exert less energy chasing and eat big baits than several small baits. And have higher energy return as a result. What are your thoughts on this?
Great video keep them coming! Don’t forget about uncle Josh’s pork frogs when water is cold now that they’re back in production. And add 1 more S. Safety. Stay warm. You da man.
Agree without watching the video I used both a finesse jig and Ned yesterday and caught smallmouth fishing the Passaic River up here in NJ water temp is 47 degrees,a couple days ago I caught a beautiful Smallmouth fishing it slow
Good video especially for us guys here in Ohio ! We blasted a huge bag of smallies in 42 degree water on Ned rigs two weeks ago 🔥 Found them stacked up in a winter spot it was awesome
Do you have any tips on how to be more accurate with casts? I struggle to know when to release when skipping or putting the bait in a tight area. I’m guessing most of it is just practice, and thanks for making these videos they are very helpful!
Great channel! You're lucky to have soft water. It's all ice here in northern Nevada. I don't ice fish so I'll just be watching you and RUclips until may ice off.
Tyler, all great stuff. I may have missed it, but I didn’t hear you mention water clarity. When water is very muddy and abnormally around 40 degrees, wouldn’t you upsize your bait and ode trailers/baits that disperse more water? I know the slow still applies.
Ive been using cranks and spinners in south texas, no luck the last 2 days. Ill try to go slower after work tomorrow. We have warmer weather tomorrow here in Houston
@@jimcarlson1858 hey Jim thank you for the input! We have been bank fishing. I have a Jon Boat in my shop we just purchased and Im outfitting it for our needs! For now just banks. Ill try the shallow water like you suggested. I had nibbles yesterday on spinners and chatterbait but nothing more. We are heading to the bay and lake anauhauc this weekend. Lake anahuac is good fishing, if you have not been there, I would suggest it when the weather warms up some. I hope we can get my 7 yr old on fish, he has been patient which is good he is learning that trait, as I plan on taking him hunting next season. Thanks again Jim, and good luck on the fishing buddy
Sup. Like the 4 s's. Might have mentioned before? Can't ice fish anymore. At private pond when frozen, at the dam it's open about a 20' circle opening so I cas a smaller bait onto ice and drag it until falls, wonder what else can do in that small of area? And the river that runs at bottom of street is about 50-70yds maybe before a waterfall, doesn't freeze, been using 0-3' jerkbait and crankbait, also I cast a drop shot with more Finese bait, just cast it and put in rod holder like live bait let current do the action. Been working and water now about 34 degrees. Any suggestions if bite stops? Water will get colder there too and good flow of water? Thanks. Sry such a long comment and 2 questions. Great video
I'm doing great in cold water with 2" ned rigs (cut down), white for murky water and black/blue flake for clearer water. I used to use the itsy bitsy black/blue jig and they worked great but only large bass would bite it.
Great video I enjoy watching. I would like to know what your rod and reel set are I'm interested in Okuma I wanted to see what your take is on this brand
I’d agree with most of it however speed cranking in the cold works amazing. Just need certain cranks and I tend to have success doing it that way even with water in the mid 30’s
My lake is starting to freeze like the guy in Massachusetts said. But I’m still going as long as there’s an open spot. I love the Bitsy Bug. I use it a lot. My only problem is there are a lot of pike here in my Michigan lake and those things will break off my bait easily. I set the hook fast ( not harder) when They hit to try to keep the bait on the outside of the mouth. Most of the time you can tell it’s a pike by the way they hit but not always. Anyway, love the video as usual. Your my #1 RUclips fisherman
I weight a Shad Rap 06 with suspen strips(2) and use it two ways in the Winter. I use it as a suspended jerk bait and, in shallower water I can use banging the bottom in grass. It seems to work and, is a compliment to my jerk baits. I also buff the sides of the Shad Rap to dull it.
I like this guy. He sets you straight. You literality don't need anything special to catch ditch pickles. you can catch this trash fish with anything shiny.
My cold water ( 39-45 degrees ) line up is; Damiki Vault blade bait, Damiki Vault tailspin, jerkbait, and MegaBass Dark Sleeper. If I could only have one… blade bait all day!
Currently catching cold water fish(cold for Mississippi) and a ned rig and a bitsy bug and a rage bug on a 7/16 ounce rugby swing head in places next to deep water just like you said so I’m right there with ya brother
I’m a winter steelheader and I’m just wondering where all the other fish seem to dissapear to this time of year ahaha Probably deeep holes warmest water possible
@@BassFishingHQ congrats, youtube is a hard place to even be able to make a living off, especially fishing. I’m glad you’ve found success and I hope it continues for you.
Yea I think I'll pass on your tips. These are very very basic. And not helpful to anyone that has actually went bass fishing. This is easy clicks. Just saying.

Great stuff man. Slowing down is the hardest thing for me to do. Once in a while I'll get in the slow zone. Definitely something I need to focus on!
You give me hope as I fish this cold December in Illinois
Thanks for the great info on cold water fishing, down here in Texas it's really slowed down. Need all the help I can get right now!! Gonna try your 4 S-tips next time I go out!
The Bitsy Bug, NO ONE TALKS about this awesome finesse jig!!! It's SO UNDERRATED, I'm glad you gave it some love!!!
I heard a pro saying to fish in the middle of the day because the water is warmed from the sun. Also to use bigger baits because bass will exert less energy chasing and eat big baits than several small baits. And have higher energy return as a result. What are your thoughts on this?
any reason you prefer the big over the flip? i like the bitsy flip because of the stouter hook and better weed guard. i think i lose less .
One of my fav channels for sure! Keep up the great work my man!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it!
What’s the retrieval when using a Ned rig during winter
Best channel for fishing information ever if u just listein u can learn
Great video keep them coming! Don’t forget about uncle Josh’s pork frogs when water is cold now that they’re back in production. And add 1 more S. Safety. Stay warm. You da man.

Dude your videos keep getting better and better! Awesome job
Thank you for the details on your shows,it really helps me so much.
Off topic, your Sportsman Warehouse clip shows line on sale. I saw 1000yd spools. How long does the line stay good on the spool? In storage?
Do you have any tips on how to be more accurate with casts? I struggle to know when to release when skipping or putting the bait in a tight area. I’m guessing most of it is just practice, and thanks for making these videos they are very helpful!
Time. And practice. Its the only way.
Time and practice is definitely key but I am actually planning to do a video on casting in the future. I have a few on the channel devoted to skipping
Great channel! You're lucky to have soft water. It's all ice here in northern Nevada. I don't ice fish so I'll just be watching you and RUclips until may ice off.
Man I am lucky, I haven’t ice fished a lot but I am planning on a few ice fishing videos this winter
Tyler, all great stuff. I may have missed it, but I didn’t hear you mention water clarity. When water is very muddy and abnormally around 40 degrees, wouldn’t you upsize your bait and ode trailers/baits that disperse more water? I know the slow still applies.
What do you think about Rubber Skirted jigs in cold water? Great Video as always Thanks
Are crawfish even up n out of mud in winter? Match the hatch ?
Is that lake Dale hollow in Tennessee?

Came from Florida fishing and would slay, now up in Ohio I need all this info. Thanks man!

Is an A rig effective on a lake that has bluegill as its primary bait fish?
Loved the video, great tips and reminders
It’s spring now but the water is cold. You think it will make a difference? This morning they were jumping all day
Great video I enjoy watching. I would like to know what your rod and reel set are I'm interested in Okuma I wanted to see what your take is on this brand
I have fished Okuma all year and I must say that there TCS Rods and Helios Reels are extremely good
I’d agree with most of it however speed cranking in the cold works amazing. Just need certain cranks and I tend to have success doing it that way even with water in the mid 30’s
I have not had success doing that but maybe I’ll have to give it another try. Thanks for watching

I combat the pickerel here with a 14Lb mono leader. That seems to keep them from shearing my line. I check it often.
I will give it a shot buddy. Thanks

Great video in depth .

Stay home & watch Tys shows. Lie to your buddies, Dream about tackle you want but cant afford !
keep seeing my secret weapon show up in your videos... the bitsy :)
Props to you for starting a bass channel in central ohio. Not exactly the bass mecca of the world.
LOL....not at all. Just trying to work with what I got!
Fishing slow kills me and I tell myself to slow down and I still fish to fast
Is RUclips a full time job for you or do you have a day job also?
As of a couple months ago its about 90% of what I do. I do some free lance internet marketing and just started Finn Fishing Apparel as well
@@BassFishingHQ congrats, youtube is a hard place to even be able to make a living off, especially fishing. I’m glad you’ve found success and I hope it continues for you.
Hey. 2.5 to 3 inches isn't THAT small
Is that a catfish on the thumbnail?
I thought he wrote “13 ass” in the intro.
👊
Dawg $13.99 for a z-man chatter bait.... it's around $5 at bass pro.... cheapest price my ass
Are you in Ohio for this video?
Yes I am
3:15 in before you give the first “s”… what a joke. 👎
Yea I think I'll pass on your tips. These are very very basic. And not helpful to anyone that has actually went bass fishing. This is easy clicks. Just saying.
First you gotta locate them if you fish slow 🐌 how you find them on bigger lake water 41
Me in Central California still catching fish on a chatterbait 🤡
