 I'm going to be catching some big fish today. As you guys saw in one of the recent episodes, Gav and my boy Chance, he's back. Back in the videos, we came out on this lake. We started punching and we're catching them really good, but we really didn't get to spend a ton of time doing it. So we wanted to come out today and just literally punch the whole time until we don't get bites anymore. And then if we have to adjust, go fish offshore a little bit, or even switch up to some Texas rigs on the edge of the grass, that's what we'll do. But as you guys can tell right here, I got a two ounce punching weight, got two bobber stops and a big flipping hook on the bottom. The bait we're going to be rigging up today is a rage crawl by Strike King. And this is in the summer crawl. This color was working phenomenally out here the other day. It's got really clear water in this lake and this little natural color. It's just green pumpkin on one side and then it has some chartreuse on the back and they just munch this thing up. So we're going to go ahead and rig it on this flipping rig and get to flipping in this grass. This is the stuff that we're going to be fishing right out here. There's a lot of grass and some of this fish you can get all the way up there. So we're just going to cover a lot of water today. Try to catch some big ones.

So I'd greatly appreciate it, but let's go ahead and get it started. This is our bait right here. Right there. Little rage crawl on punching the rig. Let's go ahead and get it started. All right, let's make it happen. We're hopping right into it. Got some good water on it. What ounce do you have? That's probably better than what I got. I just have this two ounce already on. So we're just going to ride with it. Has it always been open right? Oh, I'm just looking at this differently. That's usually where we get a buyer, right? I thought it was that one. A two ounce weight to the funny bone. Don't feel that good. It could have been a lot worse. That's the thing with punching. You don't want that big weight. That big weight is a bullet. That's all that thing is. I didn't feel too good just smacking me in the arm. Could have been worse though. How many times are you stressing worse? I'm four or five, but it doesn't hurt to experiment. You know, just waiting on that one. Is that where you're at? Geez, dude. I saw that. Nice. Nice doggy. Not a big in, but hey. Start. Yeah, it's really not a bad one. I pulled the rod out of your hand, didn't I? I saw you. You're like double checking. All of a sudden your rod just starts getting. Honestly, I respect you like making sure that was a bite though. Because you know how these weights are, dude. It's like you don't want to knock someone's head off. I found them. That's a good one. Chance, I didn't even get rigged back up. This is not not crazy though. They got to be right here. Yes. It's like when you find them, you find multiple. And that's a two pounder. Might be two and a half. What do you think? Two and a quarter. Two and a quarter. Fat body on them. We got a scale. But man, look at that. Two fish back to back. One is some crazy about this one. I don't know if you guys can see, but there's like these deep crevices on the top of his head. If you guys know where that's from, comment down below. Look at that chance. Yeah. It's weird. He looks like a dinosaur. I know. But hey, we're both on board with our first fish. Nothing big yet, but I still a good fish. Oh, my God, I think he grabbed me. Oh, no he didn't. I just flipped in there. Well, the son of bash is boils right next to it. And on the fall, it felt like he hit it, but I guess he didn't. He could have and let it go. That about got me excited. I thought, smack one. You see that little spot, bro? Came off. Are you kidding me? It's like a two pounder. It wasn't nothing crazy, but the bite's so weird. I'll tell you, did yours bite it a little soft? It probably did because you waited. It was like, you could barely tell it was a bite. That's kind of how that one was. It came off. Gosh, dang it. That was a bite. There should be more right here, brother. Look at that right there. Took the crawler eggs right off. That's not how you want them to eat it. I'll put this a fresh one on. We had one bite right here, and that's like one of those things. Now we're like, okay, there's fish in the area. We didn't have a bite down this whole little stretch. Got a hone in. Chance is going to hook one by the time I'm rigged up. How many times did you pump it with that first one bit? No. There was a lot. I was just doing this like this. Probably about five down. Five or six. It's weird because some days you'll go out and it's like, they hit it on the floor. It goes through. It's weird. Watch out, watch out. Digging. Nice. That's three pounder. Get your butt up in here. That's what Chance just said. Two. Two number. We can. Are we going to catch more? Yeah, what? You should see the ones I saw earlier, dude. That's what we need to be catching. I didn't pitch up on that wood that comes in, but that might be. I can't believe how long you're in that patch. That was a thick stuff, too. I was just up and down. That wasn't like jumping it up and letting it fall down. That was easing it down. That's how I felt them hit it. See, now we got two baits going in. We're getting more bites. Not only that, but it's just easier to fish with both of us doing it. Looks like that's a better. You see that fish swimming right there? You see that? That was a bite, though. There's one swimming right out at the same time. Look at that. Is that the one that bit me? Dude, look how big he is, dude. There's two of them. There's two. Look how big they are. That was the one that bit me. Dude, he's going after it. He's going after it. Oh, my God, Chance. Dude, they're about to eat it. He just ate it. No, he didn't. Oh, my God. He's filming us. Dude, this is stupid. There's 10 fish right there that are like three plus. If I had to put a number on it, that was a 30 pound bag. What? Where did these big ones come from? We never see them. We never see them. I'm just mad because I know that big, what, five, six, however big that fish was was the one that hit me. He came right out of the mat. God. It was him, and then three more came out behind him. Yeah. That's a good thing that we're talking about how this fish stack up. That is the prime example of that. I'm just mad we didn't get one. See how finicky they are once they see you? That was actually crazy. That's what I was seeing in that Bat Cove. They were all that big. Got them. I had a fill in here by the cash flow. Yeah. That's a good one, too. Look at that one. That's a good fish. Big is a high two. You're right on the edge. That is my first bed fish of 2021. On a punching rig. How can you beat that? That was so freaking cool. Show them Cody before we try past it. Right there you have a little bed. And this bass was sitting right on it. Flipped right up there at the edge of the grass. It was so cool watching that fish eat it. I wish we would have had like a good, it's so hard to tell because I have sunglasses on. I can see everything. I wish the GoPro could see that. That fish went crazy on that little punch rig. Just easing it up and down in front of his nose. He couldn't take it. That is awesome. It's a lot of fun. I missed him earlier. And he just tricked me again. I'm not getting them pinned for some reason. That was so good. I don't think we've been able to punch. Oh, he came off. You see that two ounce weight? Difficult, bro. I was praying that he wasn't going to come off. That was a good one. That was like a high two, wasn't it? It was like a football. That was a thick, chunky one. Two ounce weight has so much leverage. Next punching video, I'm going to take that off. I'll probably put it on an ounce and a half ounce. I got a little excited. I think he stole my crawl. Yeah, look at that. Stole my pinchers. Nice one. Nice one, dude. That's the size we want. Gosh, that's a good fish. All right, there we go. Look at that, right in the corner of his mouth he's barely hooked. That's a good fish right there. That's a high two pounder. Super fat belly on that one. It just feels good to land some of these. I missed a ton today with that two ounce weight given leverage, but that's a high two pounder. It can be three if his body was even fatter than his stomach. That's a big one. Getting right back in the water's colors are just so beautiful, too. So I love about some of those bass. There he goes. Look how good that was. Look how much water. Ooh. I saw a good line. I can't even get a bit. He's on there. Dude, I about went overboard. Ugh. That grass man made that fish stay there. One of that would have been some things if I just tipped over into the back of the water with this thing on. So just caught final fish of the day and man, did we have a time out here. It's so much fun, you know, getting those big punching rigs, punching through that grass, hammering down on a good fish. There's nothing better than that. And all in all, these have been some good quality bass, some pretty fish. We didn't have any like really big ones today, sadly. But we did catch some good ones.
