 What's going on guys? No friend kicking their bass TV. I'm really excited to bring you guys this video today We're gonna be trying to do pretty much some tutorial videos. So today I'm gonna go out and I'll lake dowel Really nice day on the lake right now. And so I'm really excited. I haven't even thrown a cast yet But today what I'm gonna be doing I can't really tell you exactly what bait they're gonna be biting on so what I want to do Is I'm gonna fish a little bit up shallow. I might throw a jig maybe a crank bait up on these banks And if I don't get anything me if I catch one or two I might keep at it, but if I'll go out deep. I'll check the fish I'm just gonna try to figure the fish out then we'll go from there and see what a bait I want to be teaching you guys about today It's just a regular Berkeley standard crank bait and it's red color the water is pretty stained here So I'm gonna be throwing this red But I'm just gonna throw it on this bank see if I can get a little reaction by going if not I might need to slow down skip maybe a jig or a wacky rig up under these trees and see what I can get going All right, so I've been throwing this fluke What I'm trying to do is I'm using as a search Bay right now I'm just kind of throwing out the bank. I threw one cast with it had a swirl something blew up on it And to be honest, I thought it's a brim, but I really think they're gonna bite this This fluke pretty good. So I'm just gonna throw it around these banks for a minute I mean, I had I believe I have one followed it back. It was hard to tell a few minutes ago But I'm just gonna work this and see if we can catch some big ones Usually on this side of the lake, they don't bite as good. So once we get to the other side I think I think we should be tearing them up Not bad. There we go Kind of got a fish going They're even alive. Well, he's a keeper all right guys, so what I'm doing is I went down by the dam on this side of the lake I Thought was gonna be good And I'm throwing up. I'm throwing a 5xd crankbait. I have it in a natural color For this water, it's much more clear over here over there is really shallow It just wasn't as clear, but I mean look at that. It's not not a bad fish. We're gonna catch some big ones guys. Don't worry We're gonna catch some more. I should be able to catch some down here. But look at the mouth on this thing Look at that. What a nice fish We're gonna throw him in the libel. We're just gonna try to catch a good limit of fish About seems always maybe a little shorter. All right guys fish number two off that 5xd. I'm just gonna throw him back Nothing big. Let's just keep on let's keep on chucking guys. Let's get some big ones All right guys right now. I'm just throwing a chatterbait and I'm skipping it under the structure By the bank. There's a lot of bushes. There's a lot of rocks a lot of trees I'm pretty much skipping it. These trees are laying down in the water and pretty much getting my chatterbait way back up in there and Getting under that shade. It's pretty hot outside the water temps getting up This fish are looking for that shade and Most of them hide under those trees will hide all up in that and those bushes as you can see see what I'm doing right there I'm skipping it way back up under that tree And I've had a few good ones following me back just nothing nothing really committing But pretty much I mean even though if this isn't a pattern most of the time you can find fish like on trees and Stuff like that all in the shade You know, if there's a deep pattern usually most of the time does large mouth. They'll still you still find some up shallow under that shade For the docks guys as you can tell on this one it has a light on it and I know that seems stupid, but usually at night All that little bait fish all those brim all those shad a Pile up under that and the bass would be right under them right around them eating all that bait So definitely those docks With the lights is something that's Really something that you need to start fishing God guys, oh my god This is a freakin Look at this fish Look at it. Oh My god, let me show it to the GoPro This is a Freaky look at the head on this thing. Oh my god Guys look at this fish is I don't even know how much he weighs, but I'm gonna have to get the scale out later and weigh him He's really short which is weird, but his head is just monstrous Look at that fish God, what a good fish guys All right guys in and off the day first of all, I apologize if you guys Or if I didn't catch that many fish for you guys I mean I call like three or four and my dad caught a few off camera that were just really small But I'm gonna go ahead and show you guys the fish But honestly the trip was worth it just for the fact of I mean I caught that really big fish and we're gonna get some cool pictures of that. So let's go ahead and do that What's going on guys? First of all, I'd like to apologize Right when I was about to literally show you guys the fish and let them go it started pouring when I mean pouring I mean like Quarter-range drops if not double quarter-range drops just going everywhere We got soaked out to change clothes everything here. That's all messed up But I got the new kick in their basher. It's in and that's gonna be in the vlog So stay tuned for that. I'm sure the vlog will be out before this video But anyways, I'm gonna talk about the baits that we caught them on today So the first bait that I caught two of the fish on Or three of the fish on I didn't get one on camera is Just a 5x d crankbait this one's actually a natural painted one and The rod that I have it on is an akuma tcs rod and this is the power crank rod This is a this is a standard cranking rod and I have it on the Helios reel That's one of my favorite common especially for cranking. It doesn't really wear you out And if you're wondering, this is a 7 3 to 1 gear ratio reel I don't really mess around with the 5 to 1 gear ratio reels. I really would recommend The 7 gear ratio 7 3 to 1 gear ratio reel and also I'm running out of 15 pound line so Going on to the second bait this one I caught the big one on and I only caught one fish on this but I mean It was a good one. So I'm using a fish head dude. So this is actually a really great bait I haven't thrown it in a while and then I was like, man, I'm gonna pick it up I want to try it so through that the line that I have it on is 15 pound and the kuma rod have it on is a tcs But it's the Martin APC. This is pretty much like the all-purpose rod I own literally like 12 of these and I would highly recommend if you're gonna get in a kuma rod definitely go with the Martin APC It's pretty much a medium heavy rod and you can throw pretty much everything on it And then the real out of Helios tcs Just like the other one with the 7 3 to 1 gear ratio reel Those are my setups guys. It's kind of starting to rain on me again I don't know what my look is today with this, but I got one big fish out of it But second of all, I'd like to apologize about not catching that many fish I mean really I really expected a good whack them today and we didn't but it's okay So um stay tuned for some more videos and if you liked the video Please give the video a thumbs up if you got some tips out of the video Please give the video a thumbs up and comment below on what you guys want to see you next Peace
