Yeah, yeah All right, I'll do your... your maniac dude You do what you gotta do? Oh my god This is probably the only place that we do this at, right? Oh, yeah. The question is how are we gonna get it back on? Great question. No, that is a road we will cross once we get there. Oh my god All right Time for me to hop on. Slip her on in here. I bet it's floating dude. Yeah, we're floating You got it. You ready? Heck yeah, we can. All right, hold on Millions spiders. Oh, we're money, dude. This is a floating mat, I believe. We're making it through We're making millions of spiders. Oh my god. Oh my god. What? There's giant spiders. Oh, no Just pretty deep. We'll check each other for spiders in about 10 seconds. Yeah. Oh my god This place is saucy, bro. I feel like I almost need to like not be weighing down the back There you go. There you go Okay, I really thought you were going in head first right there. Are you moving? Yeah. Yeah, we're going Yeah, there's giant spiders everywhere. We made it That was the ambition. Well, we're here, baby. We are here. Oh, yeah, look at these spiders, bro Look at these spiders are everywhere, bro. Oh my god. Get out. I mean there's like a there's literally like 30 spiders right here We know black with us. Did you got one hanging from your butt? I'm not even kidding. Other side That is the hole that we just went through dude, you can't even tell there's a hole there on the GoPro That's impressive, okay, I wish it wasn't 35 degrees right now. That'd be great. That would be it is really cold guys Our first like super cold fishing day of the year We actually caught some fish earlier this morning fairly easy. I mean they bit pretty good I'm I'm thinking a chatter dawn. Hey, that's just my big fish confidence bait if we're in three foot of water right here. I feel like Yes, but it would do the conditions our money first That's fully we should go for some big ones man Think in that color Like a little white rage curl So we are going to use the white and chartreuse thunder cricket rage curl Pair it up on the kick and the best TV exclusive combo and as you guys saw at the beginning of the video if you go down on The website we were giving away three free packs of striking baits with every single rod purchase We're gonna tie this on with a standard uni knot and we're gonna get the work I'm excited. I just this place looks so good guys. I gotta move this stuff so can stand up My man's got the hundred-year-old doers for the hundred-year-old pond All right, dude, I will say this water is more stained than a lot of the water we've been fishing Place we fish this morning like stained. Yes. It's staying clear. It's kind of like tana cooking like kind of brown I like that water color Oh Guys today conditions very cloudy cold very dark. It's a dark day The water clarity pretty dirty but clear at the same time fairly shallow if you guys were out here fishing this pond today What would you guys be throwing? Well, it's your choice is a spinner bait, which is a killer bait for this My choice is a thunder cricket, which is a chatter dump And these are both really good baits To catch you know some big fish on right now. We're starting off on a simple little grout edge We're only staying about you know 20 foot off the bank We might have to adjust throughout the day. Maybe fish some of the middle place is actually really big I mean it's just got a good little water to fish. It's not just tiny All right, you know, that's a good talking point to that. So, you know, you've been what two three foot the whole time Six Oh dude, so I was about to say that dropped to like four or five or six foot That's that's killer like when you're in super shallow water two to three foot and you drop to six That's like big time. You said nine Dude, that's huge though. That's a that's a big drop off for shallow Should be sitting on that heavy if you can figure out where that drops off fish that edge you for sure. There's nothing in my head There he is Oh My gosh, dude worked it so slow Fletcher so slow That's like a three-pounder. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Yeah, healthy fish healthy fish. Let's go, dude. Look at him show you too Let's go dude Start off the video with that I'd say a two and a half. Yeah, look at that bite though. Oh my goodness. That's what you want That's what you want Let's freaking go Fletcher a first fish. She thump it pretty good trophy pond. Yes. Well, you know how they eat that chatter They just load up on it. Yeah So I was working a little slow it's I asked you I said is there a bug in my I keep thinking there's a dang spider in my hoodie And Fletcher was looking so I stopped my bait for a second and let it hit the bottom I'm gonna really slow like just kind of There's bass in here. Dude. Yeah, that's big Every time you fish a new spot, it's like you can hear all the stories you want It all comes down to when did you catch this fish? Are they still here? It's a bit this pond's been here really that long Yes, a good start. It was a healthy one to do it wasn't like skinny or anything That was a good fish. I would still call us up. Do you bid I would still call us a pond But it's definitely that's a good bit of size on it. It's still small, but it's got a little lengthy Oh, that's got hammered that's a big in That feels big Fletcher, it's a nice one dude Nice dude, that's a really good one. Look Is that for That's They fight good dude, look how healthy they are. I was on grass edge. I know that means if you get a big in Like a big and big in That fish are almost three pounds Out of around the corner of the mouth. Look at that. You all second fish today. Look at these fish man. Just beautiful beautiful This one, you know the first fish came On that tree lawn this one came on this little grass edge There's some good fish man Got two fish in there. They're both group Yeah, he ate that thing. He had a really little slow How deep are you here? I'm real in that thing so slow I'm gonna flip to a jig I'm feeling yeah, I'm feeling I'm feeling jiggy with it So right now guys, I am tying on a two-ergrade skipping jig this is a half ounce and I have a rage crawl as my trailer and this thing is looking like it is ready to go into a largemouth's jaw Yes, sir. I don't know dude for one of these giants. This is like a freaking peanut For one of these 15 pounders He about 30 of these in one sitting I would absolutely lose it Everyone in a 10 square miles would hear me screaming Look at that Load up I got me so pumped up like I dropped it. He dropped it. Oh, that sucks I know I've caught two on this I'll put it back on if I need to but I gotta try out a big jig I'm in the mood now It is calling me I think I might go with a black and blue since you're going with a green pump Try out something a little bit different Actually, just hand me that black and blue jig next to you in that cup holder You think that first load up is actually about it So guys, this is the bitsy flip that I put on this little striking not bit down a rage crawl Snap me off Snap me right off. I had some good weight on it. I ain't gonna sit there and say hey, that was a 12 pounder Felt kind of good The fact that he bit me that there's two times in a row right there. Maybe that's how we need to be fishing it Just kind of Little holes, you know, the chatter bait might be a little too fast here No pitching that jig, you know, I mean he bit it twice Can't believe he broke it that easy. You think it would have been like a mud fish or something Yeah, I could have when you're not getting many bites like that. It makes you wonder Especially those things and it makes you think about it like that That wasn't one of those bites to where you feel them just go It was one of the bites where he just loads up on it So like the first time he loaded up on it and then I hooked that and missed them The second time he loaded up on it starts swimming towards the boat Hey, maybe the big ones are in this grass. We just got to fish it slow and methodical like that I mean, I will say the grass we did fish We were throwing a moving bait past it and they might not be that active to come out and eat it You know, that was my first miss fish Me and Fletcher both miss one on the jig so mine broke off This is the This little bit see-flip I'm throwing and strike King's very basic and I got a rage-crawl on the back But I bit it down That see that looks like a prime big fish spot right there The one I did catch on the grass. It was on that little like nipple like that little point Yeah, that's what I'm saying like there's two fish on grass like there should be more You had yours out the your bite in the middle. I had my first fish in the middle and then two fish on grass I think they're just kind of spread out Oh, oh, there we go Look at him run. Oh my gosh, there's a tiny one. I've felt them bite and then all of a sudden I was like dude I have no pressure. He ran from that little pink thing all the way over Well He's so fat dude look Look at a little belly on him. It's definitely not what we want pretty colors on them though The colors on that fish Me big but something That is my first fish on the jig the one I broke off definitely bigger than that All right, I think I got a switch back to the chatter bait dude. He was just doing it at the beginning I mean, I didn't really think I had too much on it But now I'm noticing that we fished almost this whole place and barely had any bites other than on this It could be the chartreuse this water is a little stained. I think the jig can definitely get bites I just think a lot of these fish are roaming You might have a better bet with something a little vibration I'm surprised you haven't got hit when you've been throwing that career half this leg or like a weightless Sanko I just I feel like I don't know if these fish are just being finicky and we're actually throwing in front of them Or if there's really not that many fish and they're roaming, you know what I mean? I don't know what the answer to that is Because if they're actually there, I'd say we put on like a weightless Sanko and it's gonna work But I feel like they wouldn't eat that jig more Yeah, today is weird There he is buddy super slow Dude, I mean, I'm talking barely eating it. That's you That's a good one too, man. Yeah ones are eating that are good. Do you got it barely real that thing? Look at that. I Mean I'm talking you let that thing hit the bottom and you're just barely moving it. Look at that boys That's our third fish. They're all good ones, man. They're all nice Beautiful large mouth. I mean, oh my god. Look at his tail dude. Oh, that's good. I've never seen one like that I've never seen him before ever Hey, you're the lucky bass. He's a lucky bass before the 15 pounder club. Yeah You're beautiful though. I mean just look how healthy man I've never seen a bass of the tail That's a cool looking bass There we go guys either I just got a ton of confidence in this bait and I know how to fish it or there This is just what they want So, I mean, I haven't been throwing it much longer too too long here. I already got another one. Yeah, butcher I'm talking hitting the bottle. Look at my reel They're just crawling it and they just load up on it. They're not slapping it I mean, he was the subtle the most subtle little bite so weird. Oh Dude, I'm talking instantly Hammered me. That was a all the bites today. I've been slow. That was a slam Right there. I landed. I started reeling and he's freaking What in the world am I feeling? I don't know what else to push my Everything off. There he is buddy He's small that's probably why There's gotta be another one Look how tiny he is. He ain't put up a fight Yeah, I'll tell you he hit that thing harder than any fish today though. Fledger. Yeah Look at the little guy. The colors on them are just so pretty though. He's got that really nice glow to him I was gonna say glaze. He's got that nice glaze that glaze. No, not to him He little squirt being the big old chatter donkey Oh There's the bite I was looking for Dude, I'm talking like that bite was insane man that woke me up Like that way me up better my alarm clock right there, dude. That suckers slam. There's always the small ones that do that Me he ain't tiny, but he ain't big That was the best bite all day guys all these other fish have been loading up on it. He just don't Long two pounder Thank you, baby Five fish for the chatter bait one on jig. I forgot I cut the jig No fish for Fletcher He's having a hard time today Maybe you're just uh, they're saving it for the 13 to 15 pounder dude. All my all my weight's gonna come off in one fish How did we just get drilled three times? I think pulled my swim bait all the way off. I think that was like near where you get That's a big and guys I have my GoPro off. I was just resetting it when he hit it Do you feel a lot bigger? He's fat Dude, that's a freaking chunk, buddy. Oh my goodness, that's a chunk beautiful fellow right out We're about to get on them pretty good guys. We've had so many bites. We're just having a hard time hooking them It's funny At least we found a little spot here. Yeah, I mean we had if we would have landed all the fish We just got bit by we would have had more than we've had all day Oh my god, oh my god, oh my gosh, bro, bro, bro It's a freaking mega. I was stuck. He's like a five pounder dude. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Can you grab him? Oh, he's not that big He's like he's a good one though feisty And that's if he was a little fatter you'd be four pounds Dude, I don't know what I was on bro, but he like I had to pull him out of whatever it was I'll throw back in there do they they might be loaded there. We might just fire them up That's a freaking good one guys That's a good three and a half founder probably the biggest one today. He's not quite forward, but He's up there. There's a high three fat belly Thank you, buddy Fletcher Fletcher that was a double-digit dude Go away Bro, did it come out or he snapped dude?
