Come along with BassGeek as I share my journey attempting to learn, grow, and become the best bass angler I can be. RU-vid has a lot of great bass fishing channels which teach you how to fish this or that bait, type of water, cover, or structure. We want to bring the overwhelming and confusing decision making process of water, weather, season, and bait selection, together to help you find and catch more fish in a shorter amount of time.
Bass angling is a process and we want to show you our successes and failures and explain what we learn from each of them.
The Jaw Dropper has the worst hook ever. I absolutely love the action of the bait but I will never use one again after me and my buddy each lost big fish having them bending out the hook. We had our drags set and were free spooling fighting the fish. I'm still pissed about those fish. Cheap Chinese garbage...
Not gonna lie if I had to get rid of every lure I owned and start over id probably just fill up boxes with different jigs in different colors and have a bag of trailers to go with them. Jigs are my absolute favorite lure to use
Tell em Hank!!! Im right there with ya brother!! Cant count the times we've caught em in 25ft. OR MORE on top water!!! Especially on Holston!! Alot of anglers give up after 3 or 4 casts!! Give em time to get up there!!! Thank you AGAIN my man!! Keep up the FANTASTIC WORK!! TIGHT LINES , BENT RODS & GOD BLESS!!!!
@@BassGeek Yep. The fishery by my house is tidal, so we have a bunch of saltwater fry mixed in too. It is hard to get them to take lures because they are gourging. It just started this week.
I understand it’s different. I use a Neko occasionally, but it functions almost exactly like a Ned with a creature, it’s why the Ned exists, to mimic a crawdad or a fish on the bottom. Not criticizing you brother, just feel like it’s a repeat bait and with ten pre rigged poles on the deck, I personally don’t want repeats, tight lines my man
im new into bass fishing and i live in western nc... i was wondering whats the best all around largemouth and/or smallmouth bait i have alot of lures and i fish alot i just cant seem to catch largemouth when not using luve bait i csn catch a little bit of smallmouth but cant largies without some live bluegill?
So largemouth and smallmouth are very different creatures. Largemouth are less aggressive and will really inspect a bait. Smallmouth are the exact opposite. So depending on time of year, water conditions, weather conditions, and even color of the bait will make a difference. Both will be doing some very different things. If your new to bass fishing first find out what the lake your fishing is dominates in. I have lake that I fish that are 80% smallmouth and others that are 80% largemouth. Target the dominie species. I'm guessing in WNC you have some clear bodies of water, if so move away from hard baits and more to soft plastics. Large mouth will chase less in the summer so slow down. Even topwater baits they down like them moved at 100mph. Soft jerkbaits unweighted and with a belly weight can be a killer this time of year and most DON'T throw them.
Even without a catch, that view with the trees on the lake is amazing! Makes me miss the Sierra's. Texas has fishing but the lakes aren't that pretty!!
I have playlists with plenty of catches. We are just talking about how to use it. If seeing it catch fish is proof they work then put hooks on an Iphone or get ya some gummy worms. Plenty of videos of people catching bass on those. Must be great baits.
@BassGeek true story: A few buddies out fishing, and my one buddy asks, "Is everyone done fishing now?". Everyone says, yeah. So he then takes the worm container and dumps it over the side and says "I'm gonna set these worms free then". Everyone was like, what?? One replies "Dude, worms don't live in the water!" He just sat there in the boat with blank look on his face. 😅 Yup... it happened.
Loved the video, now I have a question, if you had to pick between buying a 7’6 medium heavy or 7’6 heavy, what would you buy. Probably gonna Throw like swim baits, a rigs, jigs, big top waters, spoons, a occasional deep crank? Thanks
That’s a tough one. With what you are talking about throwing I would go with a 7ft6in heavy moderate fast. I have the perfect rod for you. Look up the TFO Professional in that size great rod and not very expensive
I will have to try these around where I fish. They seem to be getting conditioned to our baits and we need to get something new in front of them....Great video as always... #100watchsquad
I need me some boogers!!! Well those fishing kinds... Love that truce! Then you said Malone's Magic👀👀 Definitely gotta pick up some. #100percentwatchsquad
