 Yo what's up people, welcome back to another video. Man, does it feel good to do some fishing today? As you guys saw in the last video, I actually vlogged. If you guys wanna go check that one out, please go do so because I wanna get back in the vlogging some more. I wanna try some different content and just film some entertaining stuff. So if you guys could go watch that last vlog, give me some feedback on it after this video. But today I'm with my boy Fletcher. I haven't seen Fletcher in such a long time and I got a whole Fletcher in the vlog today. So we're gonna have a good time. We're gonna be doing some fishing, hunting for some big bass. He said the fishing's been weird. Fish for like three hours, two days ago, first two and a half hours. Just man, I mean I was catching a few here and there and then the last 20 minutes I caught 15 to 20 fish. It was crazy. So I guess we'll see that fall bite should be picking up around here. So it's so late in the year already dude. This is crazy, they even called this fall. So I guess we're gonna see what happens today. You know, I'm gonna rig up some baits on my rods and just go out here and have a good time. It's been a minute since I've fished and I've been, you know, I was sick and all that stuff. So we're gonna hop right into it, have a good time. And if you guys wanna go check out some of the big bass energy merch on the website, I'll pop the link up on the screen and down below. If you support the brand, I really appreciate each and every single one of you guys that have ordered stuff off the website. I mean so much to me and I just love seeing people walk around, repping the brand. It's just a good thing to see. If you guys are new to the channel, please hit that subscribe button, hit the notification bell so you can like button. We're gonna go ahead and hop into it. Let's hop on the boat, rig up some rods, catch some big fish, let's get it. Alrighty, just got on the boat. We are ready to kick it off. I am excited. So I got three rods with me today. Let me show you exactly what I got rigged up. So I have a, I'm just gonna show you right here. A Moc Crush is the new Moc Crush beautiful paint job on that bad boy. On this one, I just have a regular Texas rig. Got a one fourth ounce of bullet weight and a three odd EWG hook. And I have a broken crawl in there. I'll take that off here in a bit. And then I have two pulls under me. I have one which is a Moc Smash. You know, this is the one I love for my smaller crankbaits. I'm gonna be using this guy a good bit today. That line looks horrible. So let's pray that it's gonna cast. Look at that, look at that. Ooh, that's looking crusty. That's looking very crusty. I'm telling you, I haven't fished in years, bro. So we got the Moc Smash today with a crankbait. I'm gonna be cutting that crankbait off and putting a different one on. And then I have a custom pro on a Moc two. This has been my favorite combo recently. Fantastic. This reel is amazing. And a 17 pound fluorocarbon have a chatter donk on here which I'll have to change out that trailer. Had a little nibbler titty biter on the end of that one. A little titty biter. Yeah, just bit my titty right off. Can't believe it. A little chartreuse and white chatterbait. You know, the last time a couple of videos of me and Fletcher film, they've just been munching this thing. I don't know what's wrong with it, but I ain't gonna complain. If they're gonna eat it, I'm gonna keep throwing it. So let's go ahead and finalize our poles, get cast in, hook a five pounder. Let's get it. Gonna rig up just a little paddle too. Right here on the back of this bad boy. Perfecto. Perfecto, perfecto. Hopefully they munch this today. I'd like to get on a chatter donk bite. And hopefully they'll eat the crankbait. Good too. All right guys, I'm in Fletcher. We're looking at some of his crankbaits earlier and there was a couple cool, neat-looking guys in here. I think it was this one. What'd you think about that one, Fletcher? I think that's gonna get munched. Little natural color one? I like that. The last time we fished over in the section, that exact same, oh, it was this one right here. It was the one that was chartreuse, yeah. That's the one I got the six pounder on, but... That was the last time we fished, wasn't it? Or just about, just about. All right, we're gonna tie this crankbait on. Just a little natural one. This one actually dives 10 foot. It doesn't look like it. We were just talking about that, but it dives 10 foot. It gets down there. It gets down there, so. That's about all we need. I'm gonna throw this on the smash. Like I said, I love that rod for smaller crankbaits like this, perfect. It just feels so good. We're gonna cut this chartreuse square bill off, which is a great little bait, but not for today. I just want a natural bait in this somewhat clearish water. And not only that, but during the fall time, I tend to stick to natural colors. You can throw crawfish patterns and some chartreuse crankbaits, but generally a natural color is what I use this time of year. If I was fishing dirtier water, like if I was fishing on the river, I'd never change from like a crawl or a chartreuse pattern. It's rare that you'll ever see that from me, just because the water's so murky. But in here with it being clear, I think that's gonna be the little trick today. I'm just hoping we can fire them up. That's one thing about a crankbait bait and me and Fletcher the last couple of times we fished out here, fired a bunch of fish up. So let's go ahead and get it started and see what we can do today. I'm actually going to throw the Chatterbait first, but I will get this ready because I'm gonna be going back and forth. Now there's gonna be some places where I wanna throw a Chatterbait more up shallow. Once we start fishing out here in the middle where it drops off, I'm gonna start throwing this crankbait dig on the bottom there. That's usually how we'll catch some big ones. Let's grab this Chatterbait and let's get to casting. I don't either. Yeah, watch that happen again. I just finally wanna go bass fishing. That's what happens every time when I catch just something weird. Oh, that was horrible. It just literally went. I'm gonna catch another six pounder right here. That'd actually be a lot of fun. There he is. That one? Yep. I can't tell if he's big or not. He feels big. Doesn't feel like a bass, but I haven't fished in a while, so don't mark my words. It is a bass. They have them hooks so weird. Look at that. It's tiny. It's a pounder, but hey, guess what? On the board. First fish today. Out of both of us. This is our first little bass sighting today. It's only about a pounder here on the crankbait. He ate it very weird. Not gonna lie. You know, Fletcher was just talking about it, and you know, it's so calm out today, and usually with this crankbait bite. Double. Nah. Oh, that's a big and any. Or is it just your rod? Your rod's a little wider than the one you were. Yeah, we're running out of it though. That's a double up right there. Heck yeah. Two bass in the boat. Let's go. About the same fish. Double trouble. Look at that. We just fired them up, and hopefully we're gonna cast right back in. Look at that. Dang twins. Dang twins. Literally. I can't tell which one's bigger. That's funny. About a pounder. Thanks for the bite, bud. Heck yeah. That's what's going back in there. That felt good, dude. I'm telling you, I have not fished, and it feels like forever. It feels like the longest break I've taken for fishing in probably five years, bro. At least that's what it feels like. I don't know. Oh, maybe that would have fired him up right there, and we'll get some more bites. Did he bite really light too? Oh, he actually hit it pretty good. He didn't like hammer the piss out of it or anything. So this is the thing I was saying, guys. It's really calm out today, and usually when you're throwing a crankbait, you want a little bit of wind, and there is zero wind right here. So it's gonna be a little tougher to get those bites, but I will say something about a crankbait. You know, it's a reaction bait, and something about a crankbait, the bass just wants to eat it. I don't know why, but if you really pass his face, the majority of the time he's gonna eat it. Something about that wobble. But let's see if we can catch some more. Hopefully there's a lot stacked up in this corner. By the way, we did see a lot of bait on our graph towards the mouth, and that's what kinda keyed us off. We also saw a bird eating over here. He just got hit. You got fish looking big on your rod, because that thing's so flimsy. Yeah. There he is. Got him? Yep. That's a better one, I think. Oh yeah. Big? Dude, I don't know. Isn't that big? I have no idea, but he's fighting so hard, dude. Am I just like weird? Cause I haven't, oh, I have him hooked under the chin. That's a good fish too. That's a two pounder. Look how I have him hooked. Yeah, they're not eating right. But heck, I mean, he got it. He got it. That's a weird eat. Can't complain with that. Yeah. We got the best fish so far. We both caught us a one pounder. Now we got a two, we're the pliers, Flutcher. You got new pliers. Are these the ones that we bought at the store? Yeah, they are. Flutcher always has these like little pliers, and sometimes they drive me crazy. I just like to be able to grip on to them good. There we go. I got a couple of the scales on that crankbait. A pretty fish, that's solid too. Close, close. It's probably a pound and three quarters, two pounds, but pretty little fish. That is our third one so far. All three on a crankbait, so it's a good little sign. That bite was so soft, so soft. I wish these gnats would just stop. If I knew they were this bad, I would have just wore sweatpants. I actually took them off before I came here. Better get this little scale off. I had them hooked all. Got a little souvenir. Got a souvenir. Put that one on the wall. I don't know if they're biting weird or my touch is not there right now. So I haven't fished in a minute, but I feel like they're biting weird. I'm cranking pretty fast to either hit hard. Yeah. Another next cast, bro. That's a better one. They're getting bigger every time. Look how they're fighting, bro. They were cracked out. Yeah, that's a good fish, dude. I don't think he's three. Oh, he might be. I don't know, he looks like a high two. Yeah. I'm gonna bring you over here, bud. Look at this, this is the next cast, guys. This is what we're talking about, especially with this fall bite. Look at that. You can tell the colors on these fish with it getting cooler out. See how much lighter they are? A solid two pounder right there. It might be a two and a half. Heck yeah. You want it? All right. I'll hold them up for you. You got it? Look at that. Go guys. Windroller. Okay. Fletcher. Oh, you got one? Dude, that's a big one. Big one? Yeah, that's a big one. Dude, that's a third cast. Yeah, and you know that. I think. It's gonna make me look like a fool. But this thing feels huge. Yeah, this is actually the third cast I've caught one. Oh, it's not. Why are they fighting like that? It's pretty good. They're fighting so hard today, dude. They're using a deeper one. Yeah, they are. I'm gonna throw that crankbait on. You have another one, don't you? Yeah, I got a few of them. Look at that. About two pounder with how fat he is. And that's a good fish. Decent one. All right, guys, there we go. Two pounder. That's a good fish. That was a fat one. Three casts in a row. Crazy. There you go. Oh my gosh, I got a fray. I had to retie that thing. I had a big fray. So to talk about what we're doing right now. So we got this little pocket. There's a huge flat out there, very shallow. And then it drops off back in this pocket. And right now, creeping up into this fall time, these bass are feeding up on bait fish. We scanned a lot of bait fish out here on the edge of this little tiny pocket right out here in the middle. And there's also some structure out here in the middle that these fish are sitting on as well. Right now with the cloudy conditions, these bass are roaming a little bit more. We're just throwing these reaction baits and catching these fish that are over here roaming, chasing bait. So that's pretty much what we're doing. And it's paid off, we've caught what? Probably about five? Yeah, five. We caught five in this pocket and there's still a lot of fish to be caught in here. We haven't had any big ones yet, but like I said, I think there's some big ones in the area. You just gotta keep on casting, get in front of the right fish. Once we start catching multiple and get all those bites, I mean, you just start firing them up just like what you saw, have three fish and three casts. You know, something about that crank bait, if you keep catching them, they're just gonna keep biting. Well, let's keep on casting and see if we can find us a big one. Still gotta set up this reel. We just switched up to some slow moving baits, guys. We've got that little Texas rig on. We're just trying to, you know, we came in here, covered a bunch of water with moving baits and before we leave here, we wanna make sure that we thoroughly fish the spot. So coming back through with the slow moving baits, see if we can pick up a couple fish. That's the bullfrog bite, bite. Oh, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot. I'm gonna catch him. I ain't taking no for an answer. It was a moose fletcher. Big one? Yes, dude. It was like a freaking four pounder. It was a moose. I told you, the bullfrog tripper. I knew it was a bullfrog tripper. Son of a biscuit, dude. That was a big one. I was too late, dude. I was just pulling my, hmm. I was just slow reeling it on the bottom, man. You just... Maybe we should catch and flip it. Oh my God, I was hoping he was gonna be right under it and I was... Oh, jeez! Yeah, I know the gopers, all that. Holy mother of pearl. There's some, there's some fat donkeys. This dock has some good memories, doesn't it? It's a great memory, it's where Larry hooked me in the face. Yeah, that's where fletcher got a frog to his dome. Nice. Out of all lures, it was a frog, too. The thing is the one, one hook frog you will ever see in your life. I've never seen a freaking one hook hollow bolly frog. Oh, got him. Squeaker? Why are they fighting, do they're fighting so hard, aren't they? They got some juice. Today is something with it. And they're biting so weird, that's the funny part. Oh, that's a two, that's two pounder. Nice. Maybe I'm gonna pick it up, let's see if we can fire some off. Look at these fish. Get them fired up. That is probably, that might be the best one so far today for me. That's a good fish. It's not super long, but he is really pretty gang-filled out and pooped on my hands. I appreciate that, bud. Yep. Hey. Noah's on? Ha ha ha. Yo. Yo. He's trying to get himself in the dock. Calm down, Becky. Yeah, they're right here. What a weird place, though. This is the smallest fish and the darkest fish today. Look how dark he is. He's been under that dock for centuries. Look at that. What in the world? Look at the colors on him. His fattest can be too. You know what he's doing? He just sits on that dock and then when a little bait fish goes by, he just goes and... Look at the colors on that fish, though. Look at that sound effect one more time. One more time. Look at that. He's got like the colors of the crankbait. Literally. He pretty much does. That's hilarious. Little fat, dude. That's what, that was a good example, guys. Firing those fish off, you know, he hooked one and I was like, you know what? I'm gonna put this chatter dong down and pick up the crank and there's another one sitting there. Ready to surf around here? Might be another one. We'll see. Just gotta make sure they don't bring us under the dock. God, don't get it in. What are you doing, Jimmy? Oop, I got one. On the troll. He's on the troll. He feels, look at this. It probably feels giant. I'm not even revealing it. Dude, that's how I felt last time. Yeah. Gosh. What do you hook one in when you're bruising like that? They feel like a good hand. Oh. Do I have two fish on? No. That bite was awesome. So far, when you troll like that and you catch one. Oh man, he's fat as can be too. He's been chewing. We just started trolling. We're trolling to a new spot. That is probably one of the best fish today. Just kick as can be. He just hammered it. It's trolling behind the boat. We're gonna do that again and see if we get another one. There he is. That feels like a better one. Right down the pipe. I can't tell if he's good or not. It feels good, but heck, almost every single one of these fish today felt good. Nope. Same size, dude. Yeah. Calm down. I'm gonna get you right off, buddy. Sit. Thank you. Get you right off. I swear they can understand me, dude. Every time I tell them to sit, they sit. Wow. It's a beautiful day outside. It just feels good to get out here and go fishing. Like I said, I just haven't been fishing the last few weeks. I've been so busy with traveling and now I have my buddy Connor's wedding that I was at. Then I got sick and oh my God. I almost had to sneeze so hard right there, bro. I just wanna come out. Come on, just come out. I'm about to say you just pawled back there. Oh, that was so close. Anyways, it's just beautiful. Like, look at this right here. Look at that sunset. Can't ask for a better day than that. Can't ask for that. Any better. It just sucks that it gets dark so early now. That's the one thing that I'm just, man. I hate, but needless to say, it's a beautiful day. You know, we caught a lot of fish and I wish we would have caught some bigger ones. You know, we were hunting for those big bass today but they just weren't biting. Fletcher's been fishing the last few days. He's had a rough time catching some big ones and I just think it's because, like I was talking about that fall bite, you know, the smaller ones are gonna start feeding up really heavy. Not until that water temp drops to about 65 to 68 degrees are you gonna see some of those big ones start to feed up and really start to catch them good on those moving baits.
