 Welcome back to the channel everybody, it's the dog days of summer right now, I was born in this time. This is the second anniversary when I was diagnosed with the tumor also known as Willis, who I am currently trying to get some treatment for actually. OSG is in search of a place in the DFW area that will treat me with some radiation for my tumor instead of going down to Houston. We're in the middle of doing that, just thought I'd hit you with that right off the bat and say welcome back to a fishing video or well we're going to try to go fishing, we'll see how it goes. And I also want to say thanks for all the awesome comments and just good vibes from the AFRA videos. It was a great experience and I definitely want to go back and just want to say South Africa awesome, awesome. There's a lot more to explore there so I'll be back in the future. And there's a lot of other things to update you guys on, I can't think of everything right now but while I'm just sitting here looking at some crankbaits, I apologize, they should be up by this video. I think I said a previous video they'd be up in mid to late July, however we hit a couple of hiccups. So visit shopcrawls.com, link down below, hopefully they are there. If not, just hang on a second. And we also are going to have a limited selection at the Guggen HQ for all y'all there local or there's a lot of you that aren't local that just like come up there and hang out with us. We're going to be in there as well but we're going to have a small selection. A lot of the big box stores, online stores have gotten them and to be honest with you, I don't even have that many right now. So hopefully I get a few in that bunch as well. We're going to go do a little fishing today and just kind of see how little evening bite goes. We're just going to see what happens. I haven't fished in forever. I've been slinging arrows and bullets down in the African savannas so I got to remember how to fish. Yeah, start right up baby. It feels good to go past again. I miss you silver bull. Okay, okay. I'm going to start off just throwing that big bank. Actually not a huge splutter spoon. But to be honest with you, it's the last thing I had tied on. There's a big gizzard shad around. They're kind of floating. I don't think they'll be too shy to hit a big spoon right now. This doesn't work. I'll probably get a plastic out and just drag it very slowly. Oh yeah, I'm going to go down there. Oh, is that a fish already? Come on, fishy. Get a little crank. Get a little gank. Don't know what to think. It's so dang hot. There's a shad on the bottom here, which is interesting. Somebody should be here. Smack this crank bait right on the face. Just got my words yanked by a little bass. Oh man, he hit it right one at the bottom. Oh my gosh. Wow. That guy smoked it. I had him. I wonder what that is right there. I wonder if that's... He was pulling with it twice. Goodies and gentlemen. Oh, four pound test. Get in here. What just happened there? What did we do? We just tied on a little crappie jig? Went deep on them? Oh yeah, you're going to be a twilver. Yes, sir. Let's go. I literally just tied on one of these... This is a hand tied crappie jig. One of you guys made me. He's getting some weird bites on the bass side of things, on the Mondo worm. I'm pretty sure they were bass, but just got me thinking like, there could be some crappie down here on this, on some of this structure. Oh gosh, I just had another one. Crappie, they're always looking up. That's how their eyes are designed. So it's usually better to be farther up than down. Oh, there's a bite. Really soft. Got him. Switched up. Oh no, he got away. Switched up my jig and I got him. See him on the electronics. That's the school up in there. Oh, Mino's getting chased. Crappies might be coming out of here. They're definitely coming out from under the dock now. Oh, there he is. Oh, he come off. That one didn't feel that great. Oh man, you can see him. They're definitely chasing right here. Oh gosh. Tiny bluegill. Well, I thought things were going to blast off right there on the crappie game. And they just hit a dead wall. I don't know if it's like the timing if they're going into a different feed mode or whatever. It was like bam bam, a couple of bites and they just kind of shut it down. That's crappie, you know. They get locked on sometimes. Right now I'm just, I'm doing a little cranking. Trying to see if a bass or two wants to bite or something out here. There's a lot of shadows are high in the water column and I've literally seen large mouths come up and just just smash at. There's a lot of fish around here. A lot of different species. I'm doing a little roaming around with a bait. Little Recony. So there are a lot of white bass like roaming at the surface here. They are late summer doozies. They're just keying in on whatever they want to keying on and not wanting to do the dance of an angle. That is very sad. That makes me sad. First of all great clips. Didn't do a good job with the hair there. The lady I normally use she uh, she was absent and that's what I got. Second of all you ever just you get on some fish and you're like get the grease hot I'm about to bring home the juice and then it just drifts off into nothing. That's what happened with those crappie. I think if I had live minnows I would have eased them out from under the dock but they were just kind of coming out a little bit. Taking a peek and just kind of nipping you know. They weren't really munching. I lost one and I did catch a good one but I'm going to let him go. I at least have to give him a good solid sip or anything. What's he going to say? He might be dead but he's not. Okay buddy. Go do what you do. Eat them minners. Okay old boy is not keying here so looks like you're coming home with me. Sorry I had the air raider going and everything. You should have just kicked man. You should have just kicked down. Now you're going to go in the grease. If you think I won't make a sandwich out of that guy you're crazy. That'll be lunch tomorrow. I uh thought I'd just kind of come here you know throw a worm around see if we can get a largy on the line. Hit it on the way down. Yes sir. Thank you for getting old Mondo. What a hook set eh? You need to eat sir. My gosh you've got a legion or something on you. What's going on there? Just trying to get that off for you bud. Yeah there's something going on right here. Got like a parasite. Oh no. That's fishing line. I don't know what the heck was going on there. It's like a hooked situation but hey buddy. Hopefully that wasn't like some sort of weird tag. Right there on the apex of that point the bass was sitting there and actually hit it as it was falling down the tail on this worm just has a uh rippling effect. I would like to think there might be another in there. Just the way that happened so quickly. We'll fire a crank. Okay. I just got bit again. Hard hit. I'm going to put another worm on but I'm also going to put a jig on. Lack in blue from one of you. Thank you very much for sending me these jigs. You guys tend to do that sometimes. I do actually use them. Put ourselves a little fat cracky crowd on there. Cause in the summertime they're kicking hard. Bet you if I sat on this little spot for a while I'll catch a couple. Make sure our drag is ready for that hook set. Worm, jig, crankbait you know, top water. Those are a few of my summertime go-tos. Trying something new here on the electronics game. Keeping the side imaging rolling from my back graph and I just put it up front. That way I can see what's going on side to side. Like real time. I was using that to see up under the dock for crappie. They were just hanging in there. Oh, there's a bite. Come on baby. There it is. Yeah, be a little bigger there. You go. That's what I'm talking about. Get out there a little deeper and old big boy come up there. Got it. Yes sir. Oh yeah. Little evening bass. Come here you oh god you are fat and chunky. Yeah. Summertime bass. Look how fat that thing is y'all. For a summer bass that's awesome. Got to love it. Okay, this might be the day ender. It's been a hard day. Swim away into the beeps. Good old red bug. You are my summertime fave. I'm in trouble. I usually break it out. I might have to make me one more cast. You just know how it is. But I want to show you guys the Woodworks and Dangle Supply Cave made some big improvements in there. Make a few more casts. Still 88 greys out here. This time for a cold one and the cave. It's just a good way to end the day. Little bit of an issue. Fish caught in the trollmutter. We got it. I lied one more fish on the Mando. Having to creep this thing along on the bottom. Oh, the old summertime drag. Okay, that is it for me. I'm now going in. Made it back to the crib. Last night, y'all. I'm still jet lagged from my trip to Africa. What I got home last night after I ate some delicious Parmesan eggplant Parmesan from OSG. Thank you, honey. Absolutely crashed. Crashed as soon as the fork hit the plate. I know I'm sitting in my dark cave right now, but this is what I wanted to show you. Check this out. Whopam! Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I installed the lights. I got to tell you about these lights because they were one of the easiest things I've ever installed and they were cheap and they're super bright and they're energy efficient. This company on Amazon they're called, I think it's Berina. I'll leave a link down there. I'll leave an affiliate link. Amazon affiliate link. So if you guys do have a garage or something you want to put in there use that link because I get like a little whatever little kickback from Amazon. I think they were 50 bucks for the set of the four footers and they come in a six pack and you link them together. There's five right here. There's one more in this section. Let's go ahead and kick that on. A little barn wood tool bar over here. Whopam! So this is going to be my tool bar where I, I'm going to have all my like wood paints, oils. I'm going to do French cleat shelving in here and do all of my charging stanchions and little tool ring hangout stuff. It's going to be awesome. And I'm starting to get this organized the way I want it and like right now I've got a clean fish so the way I've got this over here is I've got it organized so that when I come in boom! I've got my boning knife, I've got my filet knife and I've got my electric filet knife as well. I've got all my sharpening belts for my sharp system. I've got a bunch of sharpening stuff. Got to keep them filet knife sharp all knife sharp. Ready to go. And I also stopped by the old Nordin tool by the Guggen HQ and got one of these but it is entirely too tall for my table so I actually need like a little stool and I'm in search for like an old school stool or just something I don't know unique stool if you guys know of any unique shop stools out there let me know in the comments. I got to clean this crappie. Let it sit on ice overnight so it should be good. I'm actually going to eat it probably for breakfast or lunch. I wasn't kidding I mean you're not going to throw away a 12 inch crappie. If you do you're crazy. Guess my stool could be used for this right here. Just pump it up. Sit here with you guys. Yeah this is basically all the new additions to the cave here and as far as fishing goes this is normally a time where I start to night fish a little bit but there is no way I could night fish right now. My times are so thrown off I was on the opposite side of the earth for like a week and a half so I'm just trying to catch up on my sleep and get back in the swing of things but glad we were able to catch a few fish. I can't believe that the crappie were not just jumping in the boat there. I thought it was going to turn on but it's always good to catch some green ones too. I don't just want to push Mondo worms on you because I think they're an awesome bait. I created the bait. I think it's a great worm. This time of year like big baits big worms, 10 inch worms I've used those for years in the summertime. Even 12 inch worms sometimes on Texas rigs. It's a fantastic night bait but it's just a great bait for the daytime. Fishing brush piles fishing just trying to get down there a little deep. I usually put like a quarter five sixteenths maybe a half ounce on there. Fish deep timber just drop offs thick brush a lot of places where summertime bass like to go. I'll leave a link down below if you want to just pick up some Mondo worms at shopcarls.com. They're in tons of retail stores now as well but the colors that I would really focus on if you're going to get into worm fishing is like a blue fleck plum color red bug. It's one of my favorites black and blue can be good too if the water is really stained but those purple colors seem to always do the best in the worms. When it comes to worms I'm 80% of the time throwing a purple variation so make sure if you're going to get into worm fishing you've got to get some of those colors right there. I don't know where it is I just love purple. Now I have to get to cleaning this crop of y'all in the new cave. Nice well lit cave. If you've seen any additions that you think I need to add let me know in the comments and I've got to do a little baby setting. Mom's ready for a little mom day and I've got to go watch Amy so I've got to get to that y'all but thank you for tuning in stick tuned, stick tuned stay tuned right here at the like button and I will see you on the
