Building the MOST EXPENSIVE Spinning Combo (Creek Fishing Adventure) 

That snake almost got me!!!

Hell yeah brother…hitting those creeks and streams!!! Showing the real struggles of a bank fisherman like myself

Academy has absolutely suffered due to poor upper management. The stores in GA with the exception of a few have gone down hill tremendously.

Absolutely beautiful combo. Looking forward to whatever video Lojo drops on us next

Been loving all the content coming out! Lojo is giving us all of our fishing needs!

Spinning reels , To me are some of the best setups. Especially for multi species. Loving the content.😊

Last couple months y’all have definitely helped me become a better angler, creek fishing and small ponds are honestly abundant here in AZ 🌵 so these techniques and info on gear is much sore appreciated! 🎣

That was some tough fishing but way to stay at it. Really appreciate you always sticking with it! Keep the videos coming

Love this channel content is always fresh and new. Even when redoing old challenges you find a way to make it new and better

Lojo got skunked two days in a row. While fishing for many hours just for us to have to watch amazing content from you. Thank you, my man. Keep it up!

Usually the bigger bass are the ones that run out like that. Great video from you, and as usual the best editor in the game gets it done. Andrew has become a great editor

Brother, I am so glad I found your channel. Fishing was always my therapy from PTSD, but the last 4 years, I barely ever get out of bed. I have to thank you with all of my heart for lighting that flame again! If I’m not on the water, I’m watching you, #YakPak, #Ayo, #Norm, or the other #GooganSquad guys. You need to come back to Texas and go to Lake Fork with me. I’ve caught over 20 double digit bass out of that lake. It’s a 16” to 24” slot so they grow big!

Love the videos lojo and keep up the hard work. Road to 1 mil.

These are the kind of videos I like LOJO! Just a simple (expensive) build and some fishing! Love it!!!

Let's go another 🔥 video for Lojo you and Andrew make a great team! You Rock man!

some seafood catch n cook content would be sweet! spear fishing with Andrew 2 ?? Maybe try to haul in a giant with some deep sea fishing?? Anything really, doesn’t even have to be a catch n cook, but you can definitely catch some good fish to eat, or even go for some lobster or crab 🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏼

I love your videos u got me into fishing like 2 years ago ❤

Lojo has definitely helped me be a better angler

Vanford probably the best spinning reel out there. Surprised to see it have that problem!

Good video, but I have to speak about the sponsor. I have the CHIRP fish finder. I've had it for 3 or 4 years, and i use it A LOT. I bought it for my kayak, after trying to use an ice fishing flaker in my kayak, and dumping it in the lake. The CHIRP was cheaper than replacing my FL8, and it does SOOOOO much. I LOVE IT! It is is own wifi spot, so it works as far as you can cast it, instead of being limited by Bluetooth distance. It works on every phone and tablet I've tried it with. It records everything for playback later, including your position on the body of water. There is shore and boat fishing modes, narrow and wide beam, two different ice fishing modes, and I use mine for all of that. If I could post images here, I would. Good sponsor for a good video. Tight lines!

Y’all went cheap on this challenge. My cheapest spinning rod combo is 700$. Need to go to a better store and find some real gear.

Man when I see that creek fishing adventure. Makes me think you should do a collaboration with Mr Creek fishing adventure. That would be fire!!!!!!!

I have the Vanford and it’s so smooth! The drag is amazing too!

Yeah heard of Falcon for year's surprised y'all hadn't lol. Wanted their Bucoo rods back in 2009 or so they were some of the most sensitive rods at the time. Think they went downhill since. I would think the most expensive would have been a St. Croix or G. Loomis 😆.you should do an online Tackle warehouse challenge and Omnia too. Nobody I know of has done it.

Love me some creek fishing! Their going strong here. Good shot of those beds.

This is my favorite fishing channel actually the only channel I watch love your content

That hat had no business matching your shirt so perfectly like that

That brim had beautiful markings

Diggin the no nonsense straight up fishin vids. 😎👍

My vanford 2500 paired with 4lb fluro is my go to creek/trout reel. I love it

Just wanna say falcon rods are pretty awesome! They're made in broken bow, oklahoma, which happens to be my home state and have been in business for nearly 40 years. I've used many of them and have never broken a single rod. And i often use them for catfish and have caught several 20-30lb cats on them. They're quality is a lot better than their price tag would suggest.

Still here brother..glad you're back to fishing 🎣

The rooster tail is actually pretty cool. It isn't supposed to mimic anything, at least for trout. It's supposed to aggravate them, to the point that they nail it as if it's a threat to their territory.

Love the content brother, I just picked up fishing again this spring, its been 5 years since I've been out regularly and your content over the winter really pushed me into digging out my combos and trying out some lakes and rivers around me again.

Not only do you get entertaining vids from lojo but you get fishing knowledge from him too and thats what i like about the one and only lojo

Nice to see a spinning setup for a change👍🏻

Great video like always!.. I love Creek fishing caught one of my biggest smallmouth and walleye Creek fishing. 🎣🎣🎣

You should do an uncut fishing type video where maybe you can read some comments or a Q&A type thing

Love the spinners. Always go medium light Fenwick HMG 7 footers with Pflueger Supreme reels. Backbone and super sensitive.

Your just making me wanna go find some creeks and enjoy some old school fishing. I love the action of the Rod. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses braid on spinning gear 😅

Waiting for Yak to pop up in the comments to let everyone know that he's the Big Creek Steppa 😂😂

Awesome. Thanks showing that fishing is not always easy. Makes me feel better about my fishing trips.😊😊

Watch those snakes brother! So glad you used that in your content. A great reminder to look out! Also my favorite is the rooster tail. I really like the beetle spins too but that rooster tail make snook and tarpon both bite down here in s.w. fla. Ft. Meyers area. Big tarpon straighten out the hooks but I've landed 30" snook several times.

The old metal Mitchell spinning reels were awesome back in the day!

Love the videos and so glad you get them out in a timely manner love being able to get off work at 11:30pm and get home shower and watch your vids while I’m eating man. Keep up the great work!

this deserves 20k likes. Banger with a lot of fishing again. This is what the people want! lol

im glad you stayed down with googan!!!!

Let's go LOJO!Love the creek fishing

What an effort for getting fish. Made me think of those days as a kid trudging through poison ivy bushes looking 4 fishing spots and my friend would always get it like Andrew.

Love these creek videos 💪🎣

definitely loving the old school videos takes me back to the old days

Tough fishing video I’ve had my share or tough creek fishing missions, another tough one is having to see and witness three good souls ayo, norm and yourself part ways for the time being and focus and your endeavors. Wish y’all the best I will continue to support both party’s because you genuinely care for your subscribers!

Up here in WI, rooster tails have no problem catching everything from pan fish, bass, pike, muskie and drum consistantly, always keep a hand full of different size and colors with me

My favorite lure style is spinner hogs with different soft plastic lures. It’s fun to mix and match them and throw it on a spinner

Roster tail all day! You have the best color right there as well!

Rooster tail any day all day for creek fishing. Beetle spin may work better in other waters, but in creeks the rooster tail never fails to catch fish. It catches all species as well. But you can't finesse it. If you're trying to finesse it, you're using it wrong. It's just a straight cast and retrieve. The blade has to be continuously spinning. It works best in sunny conditions, as the sun reflects off the blade. It doesn't work as well in shaded waters or low light conditions, though you'll still catch fish. As for what it's supposed to be mimicking. Creek minnows and chubs often scrape their sides against the rocks or show their bellies to the sun and the sunlight reflects off bait fish. The blade kind of mimics that. Also....it's just a lure that can be seen from a long ways away. Sometimes all you have to do is give the fish something they can see and something that moves, and rooster tails are easy to see from a long way off when working right. This may not work well in pressured waters, but in creeks where the fish don't see a lot of fishermen, this works great.

The Stradic and mojo yak rod when you surprised badger with it at the end of video. For the OG fans I think that was your most expensive spinning combo on your channel 😂

18:02 I died laughing 😂😂😂😂

i own a shimano vanford 2500 and have no complaints. of course mine came out of the box perfect...lol. the vanford and stradic are the two best spinning reels i own, but i do have others such as lews, abu garcia, and pflueger. the one thing i've noticed between the shimano's and the others is that the shimano's require less maintenance over time whereas the others will have grinding sooner and need to be broken down, cleaned, oiled, greased, etc. but honestly you can't go wrong with any of them.

You should do this more often I love the different species type videos. Just you kayaking, slinging the rod. Could be no talking all if I care. I'm one who fishes and when I'm not I'm watching fishing videos. I love the content and keep up the great work man, I've been watching your videos for a while now and they all are pretty cool and unique. Love bro, be safe out there.

Another Great Vid guys!! Gotta love the dedication outta Both you and Andrew!! 😎👌 I wouldn't mind using that combo

Watching this video gave me an idea for a new 1v1v1 comparison challenge for you. The most expensive baitcaster combo vs the most expensive spinning combo vs the most expensive spincast combo. Spin the wheel for who gets what combo, but each person gets to choose where they go to get the combo. Biggest fish gets to keep all 3 combos.

I've only used spinning reels a couple times, but I could never get them to stop making a mess of the line. You are out here making it look easy.

@LOJO just wanted to say thank you for talking about filthy frog. It’s been my go to frog especially the mini . Now I’ve just gotta catch me a buzz bait bass and my top water dreams have come true

Loved the video! Being from the Pacific NW we spend a lot of time in creeks/rivers. You are actually the one that got me into bass fishing! Keep up the amazing work Lojo!

Love the longer videos!!!

Really digging this channel and energy. Finally getting back into fishing again and man LOJO got me exited for some TX fishin🤙🏼💪🏻

😂😂😂 that pitch change in the voice got me Ik that feeling heart start pounding afterwards

I've been using the H2O baitcasting reels for over 20 yrs highly recommended for the price can't be beat ! Bearings , gear ratio breaking system compare em ! Still using 3 over 20 yrs old !

More kayak content please. You sounded like you were enjoying yourself out there.

Man every time I see Academy in your videos it makes me we wish had them in Mass. Keep on catching Lojo !

Rooster tail all day!!! Best all around lure I've ever used and I love them!

thanks good review lots of moving around for this one

Love the creek fishing!

Snakes can strike 2/3 of their body length. Not to scare you, but you were in his striking distance!! Great video!

The family loves your videos

The videos, so far, this year feel different, but in a good way, video quality is great, clean, organized, and even though they are fun content there's no shortage of quality info for the viewers. Keep up they great work we will keep tuning in👍🏻👍🏻

Great job Lojo!!!

Beetle Spin, but it's gotta be those little ones that look like bees.

I love the reality of your videos, your ok with it taking a couple of days of fishing just for a couple of dinks and a panfish. Awesome videos man!!!

Great vid Lojo!!! Cant wait to make a trip to Bama town!!

This was awesome! I only fish spinning because I cut the tendons and nerves in my right hand so it doesn’t have feeling and a spinning rod works best.

I grew up throwing both. Both caught fish but the Beetle Spin caught the bigger fish and more bass.

Man oh man, I dont do snakes. Im with you, I would have been going home until my nerves were calmed. Lol Thanks for all the vids. You are the reason I started fishing.

SO excited to watch this one

You have been uploading alot lately. Thanks!

I caught that 4.5 pounder today on a spinner setup from Ollie’s. After watching your Ollie’s video. Thanks again for the content you are putting out.

"wrong turn homie!" Don't stop

Thats so funny I literally went to the dentist the day of this vid. My mouth is currently numb from it lol. Great vid love the content.

Hell yeah Lojo another solid video. Rooster Tail is a bait my grandfather swore by, but my dad always told me a Beatle Spin never fails. I love them both honestly

I was five years old when I caught my first fish. Massive large mouth bass. On a black and chartreuse beetle spin.

Nice brother. That’s really about how everyone’s trip goes lol snags and missing every 🍂 😆. We feel ya. Rivers and creaks here in DFW texas are amazing all time of the year and gotta love the beetle spin and the do nothing some how catches everything rooster tail.

Premium fishing combo for testing snake activity.

I always loved the Beetle spin that has a skirt but I can't find them any more.

Lojo more kayak videos like the OG days when I joined the lojo fishing fam

Great video love the kayak fishing videos

Creek fishing is such a hard grind. Appreciate the dedication

That's what's up with the academy spinning combo. I know it relates to me

Lojo over those other 2 meatheads ! 🤙🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 you’re channel is better

That transition to the sponsor was clean asf
