 LFD. Good morning, sir. Ready to give it a dangle. Yeah, what a beautiful outfit. Thank you, sir Thank you. So I get to fish in this. You're my co-pilot today. All right Co-pilot to the Mondos. Let's do it Log up the Bulldog. Miss B. She matches the boat She'd be a good mascot. Yeah Come on, but you got to stay home Alrighty, oh we're out on the lake Windy blustery and I could not believe the water temperatures 51 Not liking that not liking that, but we're gonna give it a shot here I thought it was gonna be like upper 50s, and we would maybe see some 60s. That is not going to happen so we're going to go with the hard baits and And just wind and grind some of these grass type areas lead in spots and see what we can come up with so Without further ado, let the matching duo bandido camo father and son start fishing A lot of life a lot of activity on scanners Feel good about it. The Dead Sea Come on Dead Sea put one out Put one out Need a big hog got to tell you I feel very good about this area though It's got the right stuff Got it. Oh, it's a good one. Come on, dad. Come on, dad Ned Are you sure I think you can do it this fish? I think you got this all the way. I'll lose him now. Oh Gosh a big it's a big get that face You go nice one. That's the same spinner bait you caught your PB on it. It is the exact same one. Oh my god Look at the tail meat. This is why I've noticed all these fish out here lately is they are thick Okay, this probably weighs more than what it looks like not long, but he is a thick son of a gun That hook hit him just right Whoo nice fish You know, he may have boat shrinkage boat shrinkage. What were you thinking originally? I was thinking that eight But I don't he's not an eight. What do you think? What do you think it is six? See if it's gonna lock Hand shaking a little bit. I know man. Come on man. My shoulder's hurting Five five 70 keeps going from five sixty five eighty. So we'll call it five seventy five five and three-quarter pounds Thank you very nice Let me go give her a little tickle. There you go. Wabam All right, my man. Hey a Slow pulling it slow and then I just it just went away It went away show everybody that that spinner bait That's really the same one you caught your PB on yeah, I caught a 915 last year bluegill colored three-eighths ounce zinger with a Little blue tail Little blue tail chartreuse so that maybe they're eating bluegill. I mean, that's what they want in that grass That's what it looks like Wow pulling it slow Lfd you got to smash that like button for Lfd. I Knew we were in a good spot. I Was like there ought to be a big in all that around that tree and then got him Cool, let's keep fishing. I don't I don't expect many fish today, but the ones we do catch. I think we're gonna be that size This fish is on my jerk bait fish Hate it when they do that. Oh, it's a big and dead That's a real big and Do you know where it is? No, no, just help me. Just help me. Oh my god. It's a giant Just get the get the stuff out of the way I'm gonna sit in your seat That might be over eight Worst land job on a big fish ever look at that clutch down the hatch. Oh, that's a giant clutch baby clutch You guys don't have some clutches in your arsenal You might want to get some because that's the that might be That's over eight How about that all red red crankbaits And crankbaits. I'm trying to tell you trying to tell you let's cash crawl right there. I'm just working a This is a point that splits these creeks right here And right across from dad. We're dad just had one and Saw this little grass line looked good about six to eight foot And I was just pumping that thing and then again just boom hit it on the stop. Oh, man. That's awesome And I got my scale so we can It's not close to the other one. I had the other day when I didn't have a scale, but I Think it's over eight for sure It's big fish season you just never know She's got to take a second here Soak that one in I know we're not gonna catch many fish today. So Everyone it's like just soak it in on the Dead Sea. That's my biggest fish. I've ever caught out here by the way By far biggest fish. Oh dad. What's your PB out here? 915 915 and a lesser man would call it a 10 But this is right. You've you've been working Working hard out here. He actually is you've caught two fish over eight out here right out of your kayak and Like I said, I've never caught a fish I would say over five or six pounds. That's that's my first one and it's a doozy. So That's awesome. That is awesome. Let's get a weight on this guy All right, y'all got LFD on the camera. It's a little shaky Give some credit. You just caught a big bass. He's still shaking. All right, we're gonna get a quick wait quick wait quick photos get this fish back Just absolute fatty eats Eight and a quarter Yes, eight pounds and what would that be four ounces? Yep, eight pounds four ounces. So An absolute doozy just caught on the lipless and we're gonna continue working around this point I mean just we haven't even hit the apex of it yet. So we're gonna stay in that grass line I get a couple big slits that fish go man God, I love getting those bites on the reaction rod and it just bent over. Come on smash that like button Pig absolute pig. I'd love to see it. Go make some babies for the Dead Sea for me I'm gonna catch your babies. There she goes slow swim off Fish number two a giant if we get four bites today It'll be it'll be big. It'll be big. So Dad you ready to get back after it? Let's do it. Let's duplicate. Let's do it. All right. So dad was just asking me How do I fish? The clutch, you know, do I use the reel or do I use the rod to work it? And I'm using a medium Speed this is a go-to in our reel. It's not out yet, but this is a seven three to one and eight eight two-to-one or eight one-to-one is also really good For a little colder water or a little deeper. I don't mind the the medium speed, but I mostly Use the reel and I just keep the rod straight at the lure So I'm always stopping it four or five cranks. I'll stop and The reason I like to use the reel and kind of keep that that line semi-slack Is is for the fall. So most of my hits on the lip lists are coming on the fall bait and if I Work the rod tip up I rip it and I drop it that puts a lot of slack in the line and it could Let that bait The hooks on that bait catch the line and I don't want that so I want just semi-slack And this bait falls really well. It'll just fall into the grass but what we don't want it is for it to Get caught on that line and then you got a reel the whole thing in and adjust it and start over so That's the reason that I like to just use the reel every once in a while I'll get grass on it and then I'll just pull it real hard like that, but I'll go right back to Pointing it at the at the lure and just using the reel Yeah, especially with braid because braid has no memory. Yeah, so Got it real you got that that spot on your line. Check your guides When your guides is broken That would end badly sir You're missing a guy and you got broken Let me look you up with another rod Like you know what dad? I just so happen to have some rods. I Think you're fishing with one of my Dobbins from 2010 This is a muscle. It's a little little hefty for that, but It'll be better than what you got You're gonna you're gonna have crappie on there. No, what's a drum? Dad you done stuck your drum What were you thinking catching a drum Look at that thing gas for goo they call them Oh Big bass and a little old drum to Lake Fort guys and a bottle Just good just good no rhyme on the boat today We're gonna head to a different spot. I Think it's gonna be important to Find the warmest water though. We can that still has good visibility We can get a couple more bites. I'm telling you In the Dead Sea quota, I think we've already hit it honestly Dad still got to break that tin mark my lifetime. Yeah A 915 imagine catching a nine pound 15 ounce bass And and the anticipation you were in the greek kayak I hear you have to flag down a boat Say excuse me. Can you come weigh this fish? You've probably lost an ounce by the time you drug it a hundred yards over to the boat And got it weighed so probably wasn't ten pounder as soon as you got it Yeah, there were three old guys in a small bass tracker and I had to pedal I'm gonna say it was about a half a mile Got the bass on here, you know, you got my big spinner bait Yeah, no scale you got to get you a googin scale dad. Yeah, I know go to googinsquad.com use code LFG Save on a scale clip it to your kayak Be good to go next time. I do need to get one. I think I got one for you. Don't worry You guys can get a scale Come on biggin. Yeah This is how the Dead Sea is it looks great. You don't catch anything It's actually nice being out here on a tournament day because you can see where one's fishing eight foot grass Stained right here, but heading into some clear stuff 55 It's go time, baby latch on to the vibe jig, please somebody Somebody hit something It's also crazy. He's like You're not even getting you know buck bass like pound to pound bass. You go straight to just giants All right, fishing freaks last chance for victory on the Dead Sea And technically we already had a monster stick for today for the PB, but my goodness Left this creek where we caught two bass went to another creek looked awesome didn't catch squat So we're coming back to where we know life exists I'm gonna go with my rule of thumb here We have reached 55 degree waters Classic worm Being deployed there you go dad big it spinner bait fish. Yeah. Oh god Get this bad boy Come here. Yeah, baby. That's how we do it. Yes Another one on the zinger Yeah Dad you came through for the racklies Right at the last the last bit of the day We had a good call came back here. That's another and that's a fat toad. It's a four pounder. Nice one Nice very nice. Let's let her get on turn it to the waters The spinner bait look at this thing it's all in net You should retire this lure man after I would retire if I caught a 915 on lure I'd retire it Well, I actually did this is a replacement. Oh, so it's not the same one. No, no, it's not the exact It's the same color the same setup, but it's a different lure. Was that three-eighths or half three-eighths. Yeah up there Them shallows trying to get it going in up in them shallows with that three-eighths We were just discussing like throw throw a plastic right here the spinner bait didn't cross my mind spinner right going a little slower It's a good call spinner bait never a bad call Yeah, it's hooked up. What do we got? What do we got? Oh, gosh, it feels it looks big Is it gonna be a sal belly or a drum? Take your time get them away from that tree though. Oh, you're good. It's a big fish It's a big fish. Aren't you glad you switched that? Switch that rod Come on Come on, baby Get it up get it up. Oh my gosh. It's a giant Come on dad Oh my god Oh, it's so close. Look at that pig. Oh my gosh. That's a pig Oh my god That's better bait is killing it Almost, you know, jerk the rod out.
