 Yo what's poppin people welcome back to another episode of kicking their ass TV Thank you guys so much for the support today Out on the Ogechi River. We got a little bit of pre-fishing to do. I'm so excited to get back into this stuff guys I'm having a lot of fun. I grew up tournament fishing. That's all I used to do is tournament fish So this just gets me back to my roots and we're starting to fish some little you know weekly night tournaments We're gonna make a whole series about it So today we have a night tournament later on at 545. We're out here. It's about nine o'clock right now We're about to put in the river do a little bit of pre-fishing We're not gonna catch a ton of fish today like sore lip them, but I know we're gonna catch them good So we're gonna hop around to a bunch of different spots try to catch these bass and practice for tonight But if you guys are new to the channel hit that subscribe button hit the notification But also with the like button if you guys want to check out the last tournament video You can check it out down below. I'll link it down there. So we're gonna be rigging up some baits I'm gonna try a few different things today Biggest thing is I told Cody when I come out here on the river. I'm so like Used to throw in like just a Texas rig or maybe a fluke That's just like my comfortable baits out here But I feel like to get these big fish to bite because I know each year is a lot of small ones I feel like we need to throw something moving maybe a spinner bait Maybe a chatter bait bladed jig so I'm gonna tie on a spinner bait right now And I'm gonna be casting around a moving bait a ton today, you know, I might have Cody throw around You know a little crawl or something to get get the bottom bait going But I just feel like I need to be throwing something that a big one's gonna bite It's probably gonna be a spinner bait. Maybe try a buzz bait a little bit I don't know if they're gonna eat that good, but we might try it out This is spinner bait that I'm gonna be tying on it's by striking And if you guys are wondering what rod I'm putting this on it's a custom pro on a Mach 2 One of my favorite combos if you guys want to check out any of the rods and baits that they use I had the links and discount codes down below if you guys use that it really helps me out a lot And you get a much cheaper price on the bait, so We're gonna tie this up go ahead and unhook the boat get on the water and make a game plan for tonight All right, so we're about to head out towards some of the spots that we want to fish right now Timing's gonna be a little off is a little lower than I wanted it to be right now But I think we're gonna catch them really good I just wish I could compare it a little more to what's gonna happen later tonight So we're pre fishing right now, and we're lucky We're on a you know a tidal water fishery right now because these fish were punished So I'm not too worried about what we catch right now, but then again, we don't want to get sore mouth them So if we pull in the spot, you know, we catch one alright if we end up catching two I'll probably just call it and say alright. Let's move to a next spot So we're just gonna cover a lot of water figure out what they want and I want to experiment with different baits That's the big thing I want to do today because I want to be confident with what I'm throwing later And I don't just want to throw a Texas rig or a fluke So I'm gonna toss around the spinner bait a good bit. Maybe throw a fluke a good bit Maybe throw a chatter bait and just see some other baits that these fish are gonna commit to and see if that bait It's gonna catch a bigger bass in this one. So let's go ahead and get out to our first spot See if we can put something together All right, everybody showed up to our first spot that we're gonna be trying out today I'm going to cast around the spinner bait for a good second like I mean, I'm gonna I'm gonna probably throw this thing a majority of the day. I just feel like spinner bait could get a big bite And I didn't throw it when we fished that last tournament. I kind of regret it. I was just sticking to confidence baits and Nothing wrong with that. It's just I feel like This is gonna get a big bite and I need to really focus on it today. I Want to get confident with it, you know, I want to if I catch fish today. I want to catch them on this Once you get your confidence up on a bait, you know, that's just so important, you know I want to go out here later today and You throwing something that I haven't caught fish on, you know recently So I want to get the hang of it feel confident with the bait and we put it to work later And we end up winning this thing. Oh Let's hit something. Oh He just hit me right there Flip your worm right there. He's hitting the blade It's right under that little thing that's laying right there Let's work it out a little bit How's the bite though? You see how that little thing is nose down in the water. There's three little pieces are floating past it Yeah, flip right there We're just sitting Yeah, exactly Should eat it you got him nice Get him Cody Mm-hmm that would have called out one of our ones last time Nice Isn't that cool though? Yeah, that was cool. He told me cast right there It does don't it. Yeah, a little tiny mouth. He's fat That was cool see that that same fish guys he slapped my what he did I threw up there and he kind of Was hitting this blade so I got Cody, you know, he's throwing that that's this is a great example to Cody like Me throwing a moving bait and you throwing that we might have never caught that fish, you know what I mean So it's like, you know throwing some different guys is It's crucial and that just gave us a sign that there was a fish there You know he hit my blade, but he didn't eat it. I don't know if that's a good thing for this bait though That's another interesting thing But I don't mind if they'll hit it and we'll know that they're there and you can throw it and catch them I mean, there's a hundred percent of fish right where I just landed. I don't know if he's gonna eat the spinner bait Whoop. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah, that's a good one. These are just our pet fish, you know See you again Just calling our shots today. Oh, you said 100% That's pretty fish Usually that's about all I would catch here, but I think we should try a little further up It's really shallow in there you can't go up in there. Oh Gosh, dude, I didn't even it's a guard dude. I didn't even hook said he just caught himself. All right, just let it go I feel like you don't even have it really pretty guard to look at him. Well, I do have them hooked That's gonna be hard to get off. Look at the markings on him Yeah, I don't know what happened dude. I don't know if he he might have I never hooks that he just started jumping literally Okay, I was interesting Get that crawl up here Looks good Yeah, it is not I Stop real and didn't he just My next cast after I retied I guess we're just catching everything today hook to guard and then just smacked a mud I like stopped reeling it and he just hammered it. They bent out my spinnerbaits so bad Look at this I mean, I could probably bend it back. Yeah, but I don't want to bend it back I'll put it on a different one for the tournament Come on big ins. I want to see some good ones here right up here. That's a good bass, dude That's that's the size that we want. Oh, yeah, it's two pounder two and a half down here The ones we want brother, I feel like I call it every shot that I've got so far except for this gar and There's mudfish. That's two pounder. Yeah Those are the ones you want brother and that's why that spinnerbait I think can get Some really good bites like that and that's just a pretty bass just pulled up to this spot Good one eight at three times. Oh, you missed it twice and then finally had it. Yeah, it's a little guy But yeah, keep I wouldn't want him but nope something Show us that there's fish here. Oh, I got one. Yeah, they're sitting off on it like I was talking about brother That's a good one. I threw right out in the middle Right where they should have been Mm-hmm. It's a nice one that one. I was really pretty in it Markets on that fish. Oh big one. That's the keeper. So fat guy. He's right out there in the middle guys I I hit this spot a lot in the winter. You see this fish jumping back there. I heard him And I was just I mean I can catch him right here in the middle for some reason Hey, we were just talking about what five minutes before we came up here and he was there Like this would be a good bank to hit when that tide goes low later tonight Whoa Dude, it's a mud but your rod that was so cool so cool That's pretty dope Just get off of here That's the worst dude. There's annoying It's fun to catch them sometimes. I'm not gonna lie, but Sometimes I get to that point where it's like why you just not bite me You got him? Yeah, he's not too bad. Not what I was trying to do. Look at that, dude Is that not that's how strong these fish are and your grip Yeah, that's more my grip than that fish About that time we're putting her on up. We're gonna be back here in like four or five hours We didn't stay out too long You know, we just went out there. I wanted to hit some spots on the right side There are some baits that you know, maybe I can build some confidence with for tonight Just have a good time and we caught a good couple of fish We were only out here for a few hours and we weren't really trying to catch all these fish So it was pretty good. You know when it comes to tournament fishing and practicing I don't suggest practicing the day of usually would never practice the day of a tournament because Most of the tournaments are from the morning to the afternoon around three o'clock With this one being a night tournament We're like, let's go out for a few hours try some new baits Fish the tide because we're fishing the same time that we're gonna be fishing later So now we have an idea of what we need to do This fish should go back or plenish and there should be a lot more that end up pulling up And I think the time is gonna be even better when we're fishing the tournament We fished it on the lower end of it, but I think it's gonna be good But we're gonna go back here in a few hours Put it to work and get first place guys I feel it I think we're gonna be able to seal the deal of the last tournament You know, we had a couple minor mistakes that cost us. We only ended up having four fish We didn't have a limit so this time we're gonna come in with a limit and hopefully have a really big one But I hope you guys enjoyed this video if you guys want to see some more tournament prep tournament fishing videos Let your boy know down below hit the like button.
