 thousand percent on a bed. I am super confused right now. Welcome back to the channel everybody. It is an awesome sunny day today and we're gonna do some fountain pond angling. To help us find some spots today we're gonna utilize today's sponsor and that is FishBrain. It's available for iOS and Android and if you like to learn where fish are, learn the species, learn specific spots, connect with other anglers and just form an angling community where you find out where fish are, FishBrain is for you. So fishing bricks if you want to check out FishBrain for yourself you can download it in the link in the description down below for free. There are some premium features paid ones like an exclusive data-driven fishing forecast that shows you the best time and place and baits for every fish species but in the free version you can also access the interactive map which allows you to look at all of the fish catches across the globe. You can use the app to connect with others and find out information or if you just want to keep everything to yourself and keep a log of your own personal fishing hotspots you don't have to share them. Thank you FishBrain for sponsoring today's video. Let's go give her a pond angle. First little one here. Two winter time baits tied on. Got a white spinnerbait and a little jerkbait. Another good bait is a jig. Oh look at them ducks. Try a spinnerbait first here. There's a bass here in this drain. I literally just saw it swipe up my jerkbait. Came up and it missed it. Got him. Oh gosh that was awesome. That's just really really really really really cool right there. He plunked it. Got that little flip jerkbait. How awesome. I saw this fish. It literally was sitting in that drain. There's some fry in there. That's crazy. I didn't I didn't see it at first but I just I sat here and went like this and I was fishing the jerkbait really slow and then as I got closer to me I kind of pointed my rod tip up and he literally came over there and he swiped at it but what's crazy is what I'm seeing right here. There's fry sitting in this drain and he hit it like a fry a fry garter. So I don't know if it maybe had like a fall spawn or something like that but that was really really cool. Always throw at those drains. There's another one over here. Definitely gonna try to hit. First fish though on the jerkbait baby. Jerkbaits are just excellent anytime you've got stained or clear water in the winter time. You can pause them clear enough they'll come up and grab it. You'll see it kind of twitching at the surface. Looks like a baitfish just dying. Fishing in the winter I mean it sucks. I'm so addicted to fishing that I have to I have to go. It's just not like spring or summer or fall where you just get on like groups of fish or you get like active active fish where you can catch a bunch. This type of fishing is you know I'm I'm trying to get a few bites. The only good thing about fishing this time of year is the size you can catch big ones. First spot got me one yes broke the ice that was a tiny little pond. I had fished that pond before and I had caught fish there in the past but looking at the app and I noticed a huge one like not too far from here that I have never fished and I'm wondering if this bass and that wonder if there's access to it so it might be you know one of those neighborhood things you can't get into but we're gonna go find out. Spot number two looks kind of fishy but I don't know what's living in there. I can check the app so I can zoom in on this thing and I can look and if I click on one of these greens I'm hoping there's a bass like some of these fountain ponds it's nothing but catfish they make them little catfish places. It says largemouth bass. See what kind of size we're working with. I got 3G service right here with the heck man. This one says long-awaited first bass of 2017 caught unexpectedly on a crankbait. What? You gotta expect to catch. I'm pretty excited about that dangle. Got it on a crank so it really gives you a lot of information. That's all I need to know. That's all I use it for. I log in there and I look at are there bass in there? Okay I know. I'll leave the rest to me. Sometimes you get on there and it's like hey man I caught mine on a crankbait. Oh I caught mine on a worm. I caught mine on a purple worm. Only use purple worms. Oh man you got to use a brown worm. All that. Don't get caught up in that dock top. Fish the day. Seize the day during the current conditions. People are just stopping here behind me like I am just causing a clog here. Looks very good. I mean it's like actually clear here. This almost looks like I could get a little sink out and do some work. This looks very jerk baity. Okay. This is a big pond. Look at all the mallards man. This is just a huge bowl. There's no good edge or anything on the side of mine. I'm gonna walk around and see. Give this little drain a dangle here. There's some scattered rock out there. 100% they can see this jerkbait very well. Come and get it. I can pause this thing for a good a good few seconds. Should return a good jerk. On these jerkbaits I like to reel it down a couple of cranks to get the the lure at the depth it's gonna want to sit at and then I start to work it. The biggest thing with a jerkbait is to not work it with your reel. You want to reel in your slack as you're you're jerking it just like a top water but you don't want to actually reel it like a crankbait. Share a later one. I don't know if you guys can see that jerkbait doing its thing but it is it's shiesty. Surely there has to be something around the bridge right. Look at this little bridge area. Oh there's a duck. Hello. No it's not deep. Look at the mallards. Oh my god. I think I see one. I think I see a bass like on a bed. I'm not even I'm not even kidding you. I don't know what's going on there but what the this is weird. This is what the heck is going on. Okay I'm gonna just gonna see what happens here. That is a hundred percent a bass. What is it doing? It's sitting in such shallow water. It's like on a bald spot. It's looking at my jerkbait. It's coming at it. It's still sitting there. Oh there we go. Got one. Good fish. Good fish. Good fish. That's good fish. Holy cow. Spinner bait. Come here baby. Oh it came off. That got it. That was a big one. I was not expecting that. Holy cow. Okay this fish is still sitting here telling you I'm I'm super confused by this fish up here. I think a little stick bait is the deal but I'm just gonna try running a spinnerbait by this fish. See what it does. Oh my gosh he attacked it. He attacked at it. I'm telling you he just bumped it. That fish is on a bed thousand percent thousand percent on a bed. I am I am super confused right now. Look at that. That fish is a hundred percent on a bed. Come back and catch it. I don't know what was happening there but that fish just went away from its bed sat there like a female does in the spring and just didn't want to do it. I don't know what the heck is going on but I have never seen that kind of behavior. That's two fish that I've seen like fry guarding and bed bed bedding. Yeah bedding. Throw out in the middle by this fountain see if I can get something on a weightless bait. See that. Try to get something on a weightless bait if not. Probably gonna just try one more pond. I'm cruising right now just checking out the map. It looks like there is one up here. There's a lot that I've never even been to. Hundred percent small bass but there's bass. Another thing that's kind of cool is you can just click on a spot and then get directions to that place. So just open it up in your maps. Press go and boom. Winter dangling is a doozy. If you're wanting to get your best friend or maybe your wife or girlfriend or your boyfriend into fishing, don't take them winter fishing. That's not the way to do it. Third fountain pond. A little different. Got ourselves quite a bit of reeds around the edges. I'm only going with a weightless bait and a spinner bait. I want to go with the jerk bait in here. It just looks a little too sloppy. Oh my gosh there's grass in here. Holy cow folks. This can't get any better. There's a dock here and everything. Oh I got one. I got one first cast. What? What? Holy cow you're kidding me. Holy cow look at that. Slammed it. Get out of here. Get the heck out of here. That fish is cold. Cold. What in the world? I've probably passed by this pond a thousand times. Never fished it. Didn't really know it was this much looking at it from the road. Okay one on a spinner bait. How about it? I said we make that cast again. A little grass line. That fish was skinny though. Looks like it needed to eat. Probably gonna be a situation where there's a lot of small fish. Another one smoked it. Oh boy. Might have ourselves a little something here. Need to fish it just a hair slower. Coming through some of that vegetation that's died off. Just like the stems and stuff. Come on now. Come on now get that little spinner. Let's try the old stick bait in these grass stems. What I like about fishing ponds in the winter that have vegetation like this is it gives them a spot to hang out in that can warm up too. That vegetation warms up just like rocks and stuff do. And things live in it you know bait. Well I do believe I did give myself the dreaded first cast curse. Unfortunately been casting the old ding-dong around not catching them. Had a few more bites on that spinner bait but they felt small. But I did discover a new new pond. Two actually. Two had never been two that I know have fish now. I got to do a favor for LFD. LFD and my mom right now are out and they have a bulldog. Miss B. You guys have probably seen her. She's a big lovable bulldog. She's not she's not mean. Anyway I had to come let her out as a favor. I figured you guys would want to see her because she's awesome. Winston is actually buried right over here where I'm at right now sadly. It's even more sad when Miss B goes over there sometimes and she kind of looks like I'm just like a big version of him. Actually she's about twice the size but anyway. Hi there Sweet Pea. I know. I know I'm trying to let you out. Hang on. Hi there. Hi there. Hi there. There you go. There you go. Go be free. Go be free. Wiggle your non-existent tail. I'm just here. I'm here to take care of you. I'm here for you honey. All right. Stay away from that water. I am not going in to save you today. About this time last year me and my dad went fishing. That was on a lake near my old home town that I had dialed in pretty well obviously. This is us. Many dangles ago out in the ocean in my dad's bass boat. Look at that. I don't even know what kind of fish those are but I was jacked. Miss B I gotta go. Can you give me a shake? Shake before I go? Good job. Good job. Yep. I love you too. Oh yes. How was the lake? She's just used to asking that. How was the lake? The boat didn't leave. A couple of new ponds. One has a park next to it. It's really nice for taking me there in the future and I can give it a dangle. Then I caught a bass by a church. It was a holy dangling fish. Yes it was. It was a Christmas miracle. It was first cast but then I was cursed. So it wasn't so cool. It's a good morning bath me and mopping. Take off your shoes. Good call. I'll just go down to my cave where I can hang out my boots. All I want. Thanks for hanging out with me today on a tough little dangle y'all. I'm not so jacked about bass fishing right now until Mexico y'all. I've got a trip to Mexico planned like last year. If you haven't watched that series that's the that's the land of the Mondos literally. But still you got to keep your anglin danglin skills sharp so you don't miss it when it counts. Let me know in the comments if you have ever seen bass spawning in December. Pretty dang weird. And I hope wherever you are you're having a very blessed day and the outdoors go and get you some. And I'll see you on the next one. Toad. That's a toad. Come here big sexy. Yeah baby there's a jig fish now.
