 We're gonna be bass fishing with big rats. We're gonna see if we can catch some massive fish on some top water today I'm very excited about this because I have yet to do it a lot of people have been commenting about it I'm like today is the day that we're gonna take the old rat out So I have another one here today. This is these are actually both Fletcher's and this is a brand new sprue rat This one's a lot smaller as you can tell right there. It's still a good-looking rat But you know this guy right here look how look how big look at the size difference on those two This guy is a massive rat and so I was like you know what I know exactly what you guys would want to see today And it would be fishing with the biggest rat possible. You lay this out on my arm Look how big that thing is realistically That is insane. I saw the ten inches with the tail So I'm curious as Fletcher as well if he has replaceable tails He has some in the boat so if something goes wrong, but look at the detail on this rat We were just talking about it. It's just looks so real I saw it on the floor and I was just like a little bit sleepy. I would have think I would think it's a real It literally looks like one doesn't you got like the legs right here and other rubber as well And they're just hanging off as you guys can tell down there Just the tail and this one's like a little bit older And it just looks so realistic and then you got like the little whiskers up top I don't know if you guys can see that coming off the end, but yeah, we're gonna tie this bad boy on We're gonna try to catch some big fish today If you guys are new to the channel, please hit that subscribe button hit the notification Bell also hit the like button if you guys have been enjoying the content Let's go ahead and hop on the water catch a big fish.

I'm gonna cut off this frog put this rat on and see where it leads Us today. I've yet to throw a rat like this I threw like a hollow body rat that was similar to a frog. We're gonna be trying this out today So let's go ahead and tie her up try to catch a big bass Well guys, we thought we knew what we were doing here, but I guess we didn't this one actually goes under the water We want the waking so we're gonna tie on to the bill. I guess that doesn't make sense, right? Maybe I don't know watch this one just go down to you. There's just doesn't want to wait Interesting oh my gosh. Yep. Yep on the rat on the rat Oh, no, he came up and slurped it. Yeah, right off that dock though first rat fish. Look how small he is I was not expecting one That's small to eat the rat, but I will say that's the first fish on that giant rat today. Well, there we go We got who's bleeding a little bit First rat fish that is crazy. I would not have expected a one-pounder to eat that giant rat That is incredible though. That's a good sign that we got one. I said not big He's actually missing an eye if you look at that right there Missing a little of some vision in one side. Maybe that's why he ate that big rat Look how small that fish is though. So not incredible That is incredible. Oh Man, let's get back in there and catch another one set this time. We need that like big five-plus pounder be on this Yep. Yeah Yep I can't really tell Came around on the edge of that dock the same way. Yeah, it's a good fish. It's actually really good fish That's like a four-pounder. I didn't know he was that big It's hard to tell because the rat's so large. Well, that was our second bite on the rat today That's about a four pounder I thought he was like two pounds and then you realize how big the rat is compared to the fish. I know. Oh Guess we should have the knits. Oh, you were grabbing it, weren't you? That's the second bite today on the side of dock So he I thought I saw something when I cast it and sure enough he came up and grabbed it Let's try different variations of it. Oh That's a giant. That was a giant. That was a giant. That was a giant. That was a giant That was a giant Like that that was that was like probably six pounds Dude what it was right when I when I switched it up. Maybe that is the freaking I was thinking about it earlier I've reeled it and then when I went to pop it. He just He never touched it, bro. Never he'd completely missed it. That was every bit of five six pounds. You saw them right there Some school and rat action Dude when it hit the water. Oh my god Dude, I didn't even move it. It came off. Oh Did the rat fights harder than the dang fish? Oh my god Dude, I didn't even move the dang thing to hit the water and he went All right number four combo meal of cheese. No lettuce on. Oh, there ain't no lettuce on this one. That's a big one That was a four-plus pounder, bro. You saw him. Yeah, I saw him. I don't think he wanted pickles, man He ain't into the green stuff Might have been the mayonnaise man. I mean sometimes I'm not in the mood for mayonnaise. Maybe that was it Dude, that was a big fish. God That's him right there Dude hammered it Yo, this is actually I think a decent one Got him weird. Oh, do you hear always another one with him? Yeah, there's another one with him Dude, he's not even moving. Look at that. I got him so good. Oh My god, I got him too. Oh, I got him wrapped up. That's why he's not jumping I got the braid wrapped around them. Holy cow. That's actually a good fish. That's a fatty Look at that. You gotta love that. Look how my braid is. See what I'm saying. That's why he wasn't jumping. You see that Oh, yeah, it is wrapped up all around them. Yeah, I like how I'm tied up. He was not coming off. We got him noosed Guess that's how I had to get it done He actually had another fish with him. Well, look at that freaking big rat hanging outside of that basses mouth That is a good one right there. Heck yeah. All right, there's that beautiful fish on the big rat He hammered that thing. We actually have some fish school in the background It's a solid like three and a half right there Beautiful bass, thick and chunky We're gonna get him right back in. Look at that. That's a pancake right there. Big ol' slab of meat. That's a good fish, man He hammered that rat right there. I told you I heard him splashing around back there Let's get right back in there. See if we can catch another one There's a few fish hitting right behind me. You've seen a lot of fish come up and we don't know if there's a school or what We're gonna cast it right here in this corner If I just be running that bank That fish that I came back with had another had another one with him. Yeah Yeah, they've been I've heard a few they've been running up and down this bank Another Oh my gosh, look at that. Look at that bass. It's on the rat. Oh my god There it is Finally found some some fish stacked up. We've had a struggle with this freaking rat Let me tell you guys now. We're finally getting on some good quality fish and they're freaking smoking that giant right there This is a really good fish too. You can tell the quality of fish that are coming on this thing The first fish today was smaller They seem to be getting bigger and bigger. Yeah, we lost those big ones earlier We're about to get on them real good That's a big boy That is so good. I'll wash them come up behind it and freaking hammer it I hope you guys saw that on the camera and get him right back in the water. That's a freaking pancake Pretty fish man. You can't beat that Gosh, let's get back in there. Keep catching them on the right a little chrono bump a chrono ball. Give you Yeah, I heard him. I heard him. I was working that last one really slow Just kind of pop pause Pop pause No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He's right there Look Oh my god Dude, he was coming out of that like all the way until I got to the boat. He started coming out of the tree He wasn't big. He's like two pounds. I don't know the last one looked like he was two and he was a solid three and a half So once he had dinosaur Yeah, I was about to reel it in. That's a good one. Oh gosh. That's actually Really big one. I was about to throw it. I was about to reel it in. Oh my god guys we got a We got a freaking tank. Oh, I got a double hook now. That's perfect We got a freaking tank on Oh my gosh Oh my god Oh Look at that bass On the freaking rat Dude ask Fletcher. I've been around the block with this rat today and just to see that right there They're quality ones. I will say that man. You cannot beat the quality of these fish That's the thing man with these I know you can agree too these big baits like that. We were just talking about it right before he bit It's like a big swim bait, you know, it calls them out And if these big ones are up under these lay downs, especially on a sunny day like today They see something causing a ruckus by the trees We'll come out and eat it and that one's not as big as the other ones. I thought he was bigger, man He looked so big when I was fighting. That's the solid three pounder, man They're just good fish. I wish we would have had this big ones earlier, but We can't complain. That was that's a good fish. We're gonna keep on working it. We came back in this pocket It's right off the main lake over here We caught two fish coming back in on the bends and now we're gonna hunt around here See if we can call some more big ones out on that rat Dude, I literally started to just put my hand on it to reel it in and that's when he hit it Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh It's a big one too. Move your rod. Move your rod. He's right under me Look at that. Oh my god. You think he sees the bow Toss your dig You're gonna catch this fish reel it up to me You should catch that bass. That was actually a really good one Like a three block Yep, there he is. There he is. Got him. Yeah, we got him. Yes, sir Oh, he wanted a snack. He just wasn't quite ready to commit Yes He soon as I think hit the bottom and he picked it up. Was that not perfect. That was money, dude Yeah, it is a three number. That's what I thought he was. That is a good fish right there That's hey, that's teamwork right there. Yes, sir. Oh, sorry dude You got ice on? All right We got him off But that's actually crazy because I just had casted him that same spot two times and he didn't want to touch the jig at all When I just threw it up there by itself He called that rat out that fish was ready to eat something and he just got scared off by the boat I think when he just kind of got close through that That jig in there and as soon as it hit the bottom where he was just kind of more hidden He smoked it. We were just talking about it You were just talking about that how it calls out the fish and that was a prime example of it Dude, that's so cool. That's a gorgeous green gal. Bye, baby Dude, that was so good. Give me a crown of bomb Oh crap, bro nice What wait, what I have a fish bro. What I didn't think I had them Dude, oh my god. There was two. There was a oh my god. I feel like such a A weiner I am a weiner for that one, dude There was two fish and I saw a small one And I was looking at the small one and it never moved and all of a sudden It wasn't that fish. It was a different one freaking hit it. That was a solid three That was stupid, dude. They were just looking at that thing And I didn't know I had one on I never Literally never felt them never nothing. I thought my bait was just That was stupid I think there was one by me. It could be wrong Suns are right Yep Nope. No I didn't think she ate it. I don't know what that. It was a small fish. She'll eat you All this is gonna be cool do another trade Oh god, she's right there Where's your jig? Where's your jig? She was right there the whole time. Yeah, she was right there the whole time I might be able to catch her on your jig. She might it might be too late though Oh man, that was freaking crazy Yep Same thing That is awesome Oh, she came off and that was freaking cool. Oh, that was so cool Well, I sure wasn't using this jig so I picked it out myself and still got her somehow That's another thing to note guys when you're fishing You know, whether it's a buzz bait, whether it's a sort of top water Whether it's a swim bait, any big baits in general If you you're gonna see a bunch of followers like that Especially on big swim baits, especially on buzz baits where they come up and just miss it If you take any sort of crawl worm of any sort and you pitch it in there What usually happens is the fish will come up and then it'll sit right below it To wait and see if he killed something. So if a jig or a little worm comes falling in front of his face He's gonna eat it and uh, we demonstrated that literally twice today. That was freaking awesome I bet if we tried this corner still that closed corner and then this pipe So maybe then go over are you wanting to go? Yeah, like all the way up there though, like wherever you easily get. Oh, oh There it is Dude, he came out of nowhere. I just happened to look back. I was reeling in my jig And I freaking saw him come out of nowhere trying to eat it No, I just saw the fish coming and then he ate it Oh, yeah, that's not a bad one. Holy cow's out of football. Look at that You see that marking on them? Oh, yeah It's a beautiful fish. I picked up Fletcher's jig for a minute just to kind of I've been dying to catch the jig fish and I was reeling it and he came out to do that as a football Came out of nowhere and hammered that right there. Hybrid jig six cents Beautiful. Let's get him back in Okay, back to the rat Gosh, that was awesome. Well, that's actually a good one Not a bad one at all That might be my biggest one, dude Holy cow That's a good one. Look how big he is It's too hard. Don't worry about it. I shouldn't have done that So freaking biggest one today. That's a four pounder Worrying about the video guys. That's what happens That's what happens when you decide to be a fishing content creator next cash. Oh, are you okay? That could that could have been very bad. Are you all right? Oh my thank god, it didn't stick you dude. Oh, it caught me a wild Fletcher That would not have been good. Fletcher would be ripping drag Dude, that was my next cast. What in the world this bank? I think they're betting on this bank real good Yeah, this is the heat this is the heat one way I've been looking at this is you know, I started off working It a lot different but now it's like the pop in motion. I'm kind of walking the dog with it I'm giving it pops and posin it Giving another pop posit and I'm kind of just walking The dog with that rat and that's really how they want it, you know, usually I wouldn't want them to get a good look on a bait like this But surprisingly that's how they're biting. So, you know, I throw that at the edge of a tree I give them like some aggressive pops And it's like calling the fish out in this base just darting back and forth That's a fish Oh my gosh, that's a good one Please don't spit it Please don't spit it. Oh, I got him in the freaking gill Oh my gosh, I got him in the gill Don't spit it. Look at that. How I have them Oh, he's barely hooked He's barely hooked Oh, thank the lord Thank the lord. Look how I had that one. That was probably the best rat bite of the day. Would you say what would you say about that one? That was that was definitely competing. He smoked it. He's definitely top top two top three top water bites of today Beautiful one. Not a giant, but that is a good fish on the rat. That is so much fun We're having the bites. It's just hard that hookup ratio and even on that one, you know, I had him in the gill Let's get him right back in the water. That's awesome So much fun fishing a bait like that There he goes That is a blast
