 What the heck Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the channel. I have a challenge for you today So I'm here in sunny, Florida was in town for a wedding Wes our lead producer at Guggen squad. He was getting married all of us. We came down here We had a good time. We went to the wedding. It was beautiful and wishing Wes on his merry way him and his wife I find myself here. I have a little time Before I have to go to the airport. I have a reel That is all I have. I need a rod. I do have line on the reel actually here in Florida. There are so many ponds Fish in every single one of them. So it's a beautiful situation for any bass fisherman coming down here Right now. I'm walking to a sporting goods store I'm gonna go get some stuff from scratch bring it back here and fish this little community pond This has catch and release only I guess the first part of this challenge is actually getting to the store It's 1.6 miles away. I just dropped a battery I am scooting here, and I'm literally passing even more bodies of water to fish as I'm getting to the store Look at this. They're everywhere Florida you're awesome. I love you. This one has a fence around it. That means it's probably really good Almost there and we are passing a huge huge pond right here with some Drainages on the sides. There's a big purple hose. Not sure what that's for and this looks pretty good right here doing a little investigation Besides the trash Okay, I need a rod. I need some lures. I'm thinking a spinnerbait and some plastics Okay, number one you guys they don't have gookin bits here Shame on you Academy of Jacksonville, but maybe they will soon I am using a rod combo or a reel off of a combo. That is a Guggen squad combo. It's an all-purpose Multi-species just really strong tough Parabolic Bend rod and all I have is the reel. I couldn't pack the rod because I was flying on an airplane the carry-on pond the lights Here we go three eighths ounce Chargers and white Willow and Colorado tandem cannot beat that 399 we'll give her world Okay hooks hooks hooks. I am going with a weightless bait because I'm I'm using a soft Rod so we need like an open exposed hook probably go with like a wacky rig situation 99 cents for a hook for all these hooks We're good to go Not even gonna lie that walk. It's kind of a doozy So I called an Uber come pick me up. It's like a 30-minute walk guys. Well, that's a tiny one Go fishing man Got me a pole got me some blues. I just had a itch. I had to scratch To go fishing every now and then ladies doing you're not winning any style awards on this one This is just a emergency dangle. We've got our Guggen squad reel beautiful bright green brown and Black rod which doesn't make sense and is definitely not pretty We have found it It happens to be back here in the deep woods though with the gators and such Man, I have been strolling Literally strolling with my bag here For about 0.7 miles, so I'm just ready to sit down and oh no way this says no fishing Get the hell out of here. It's probably really good then. What the heck? My gosh, this looks beautiful. I know it says no fishing, but please don't tell anybody This is where I'm going to get some fish For sure Let's sit down here and get myself a little profile. Oh, there we go. There we go. Got it hooked up hooked up Heck yeah nice This guy absolutely choke it Just a little dude, but that is a Florida bass caught It smells good. Caught right by a no fishing sign. Hmm. There we go a little better Just suck it in like a little candy corn Oh Beautiful dark Florida bass Man when they're taking it it is just goners. Okay, buddy. Got you unhooked Seeding you on your way Man, he just gobble-gurped it to Florida sniffs, baby Came down here. I was able to acquire some equipment At a local sporting goods store and we're getting it done right now. I'm walking around This place is a big pond and it's beautiful Fish just should be spawning somewhere too So I'm kind of giving a little peek over the side to see if any fish are like right on the edge I'll bet it up, but I think I'm gonna stick with that little weightless bait since it is so clear Maybe switch colors go to a black and blue color that I got as well. There's a nice little pathway down here Obviously people come down here and fish Or do something down here But I'm taking it as a sign that I need to walk around and I need to fish so Screw that no fishing sign. You know what I mean? You guys are basically just looking at a bush right now, but The lure is about 30 feet out there Working it trying to try to dodge the trees Wow Wow This is a very difficult angle here in this foliage could make a little color switcheroo here I'll go with the classic Florida Junebug dark purple color You see the way I'm rigging that not just going through the exact middle of the bait kind of Going through the the side and coming out. I feel like it holds on there a little better that way Come on fish, I need you Give one more out of this beautiful pond. Oh my that is some wind That's a fish. Oh, yeah. Oh, he had it little guy though Little guy gobbled it. It's what you call a young squirt right there young squirt Didn't really make a splash. He wanted that Junebug though All back now come on back. All right, so I've had a lot of bites in this area I don't know if there's something going on here Good structure around the way But I've had three three bites. Oh Got it right there. Oh shoot. Oh Come off Okay, I got my third fish out of here feel good about it Log stuck in my wheel on my luggage I'm going to start walking towards The main highway and go fish over there some of the ponds there Um, I think it might rain it rains almost every day here in Florida So Could become an issue I've got uh About three hours left until I've got to go to the airport So I've got plenty of time to catch some more fish but Found this one even though it said no fishing That's always the best places to go my opinion There's looking like 100 chance of rain over the course of the next hour So this is not going anywhere. This is tough. I'm ready to catch a few more Give them some good solid sniffs Give back to good old Tate house. See my girls. I'm missing them Okay after a little rain delay Paw number two now Much bigger and wide open when you come to these ponds it's You never really know like where where the fish are going to set up Usually though it is close to the edge There's usually just uh Stuff like built up around the edge of the pond rather than out in the middle They're not very deep. So there's not any different. Uh Oh, there's a bite Got him Thumped it hard. Oh my gosh. That's a good one. Here we go. Oh, yeah, baby Heck yeah I thought he was a lot bigger But he just it was like a hard smack. Thumped it good Heck, yeah second pond fourth fish Wabam That's the kind of bite I like Just a thump Get it good Oh, there's another one Same size Maybe a little smaller When you're feeling like a tap tap Most of the time it's one about that size And then you know two three pound bass I got no problem just sucking in a a plastic like this Just one one pump Maybe this rain has helped turn them on a little bit Oh, there's one he's got it. He's got a little one You have to turn the drag down on this reel a little bit Smoking them. Heck yeah, there's three fish and three minutes here at this next one next little hoad They're not big honkers Hit the like button for honkers going back in Right there. Here we go. Get something a little bigger, but hey Oh my gosh. I just threw that off fish is completely going to eat that one Wow Must have a little soft spot on that one Didn't have the audio section there. It's rolling on my other camera, but there is a nice Nice fish did not expect to get that one Well, I was trying to get a photo with that guy, but he decided he didn't want to be on camera So he flopped himself back in I'm seeing a lot of kids around here Just fishing these ponds now just really enjoying fishing So many opportunities here as a kid to just have access to fishable waters And be able to go bass fishing. It's awesome. Man. I love it. So, uh, there's there's a father son down here Jazz about fishing. He's running back and forth from the bait to the water like I could just tell he's super excited So since I can't carry this rod with me Uh, I think I'm just going to give him the whole combo and even the lures that I'm catching them on just to tell them You know, I jazzed them up over there in that corner. I've caught so many fish y'all There just comes a point where you want to pass it on especially now being a dad Like I love teaching people how to fish and helping them out around the lake That's one of the reasons I started making youtube videos in the first place. So I'm gonna walk over there. I'm gonna give them this combo here and uh Hopefully they'll enjoy it catch the fish on it and then I gotta get on one of those guys Hey, how's it going? I was gonna give you my fishing pole But yeah, if you want it I'm heading to the airport So if you if you want, uh, if you want an extra rod Yeah, man, I'm sure I got plenty. My name is Justin Jason, by the way Um, I was catching them on that purple worm on the other in the other pond 20 30 feet out from the bank Over on the other one, but yeah, y'all have a good one I was trying to track down that father and son To give them that combo and then they were leaving and I couldn't catch up to them Uh, then I spotted more people on the other side and it was actually a father with a couple of his daughters So it was actually more fitting for me. I think to uh to give it to them But I came up at a terrible time. She like just stubbed her toe or fell in the water or something like that And I'm just standing there awkwardly And I'm like, hey, I need my fishing pole timing wasn't quite right But the beat was good and sometimes it is just as simple as a hook at a worm And if you guys want to get your hands on a Guggen squad rod and reel combo They are available at some Walmart's and some dick stores. I believe uh, just that select ones I wanted everyone that was my plan was to go get one here since I didn't have a fishing rod with me And then, uh, show you guys the whole thing my uber is going to be here any minute ladies and gentlemen And I'm going to be heading back to texas. Thank you for coming with me on this adventurous Dangle and I will see you on the next one
