FINESSE FISHING for GIANT WIPERS!!! | MONONGAHELA RIVER | HYBRID STRIPED BASS | 

Sorry, I don't give out locations. Can't hide anything from Google maps tho! Thanks for watchin!

Absolutely!!! Tons of fun! Thanks for watching!!!

All of my videos from this year I am doing exactly that, however I haven't been to this lock yet this year because I am primarily focusing on my home water. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@fishinwithishtight lines brother!!

Hahaha fishing is the best! Especially when you catch something completely unexpected! Thanks for watchin!!!

Yeah you should! Some days it doesnt seem worth it cause theres just nothin biting but this time of year its rare to not fatch a few. Tiff did a good job I just get paranoid when im not the one behind the camera hahah. I really wanted a good picture because I wanted to start trying to apply for the angler award for these bigger fish but it looks like they quit doin it! Whenever i go on the fishandboat website that page says no longer exists!

Thanks!!! Its the days where I think nothin cool is gonna happen, then I get these surprises, and I just go nuts with excitement hahah. Thanks for watchin!!!

Thanks! And thanks for watchin!!!

These wipers are ridiculously fun! If I had more places to catch them I would definetly chase them more often! I wish we had them in the numbers and sizes you have! Its crazy these guys eat these small baits!!! Thanks for watchin!!!

I get a lot of mine on 3/4 or 1 oz bucktails. So in reality the bait is 2 1/2 to 3 inches long. I catch them on the same baits you use too, but the bucktail is my first option most days if I'm targeting hybrids.

@@reelguysfishing very interesting, the more i use these smaller swimbaits the more i realize the average size of fishin catchin is actually bigger than throwing bigger baits lol.

I know exactly what your mean, a little more drag and I think that rod would've been history🤣🤣 LOVE IT THO!!!! Thanks for watching!!!

@@fishinwithish You bet. I'll see you out somewhere.😎

Thanks!!! Yeah for me these guys are pretty rare so I couldnt bare to eat them haha. although I hear they are good eating! Thanks for watchin!!!

@@fishinwithish Pure Stripers are good eating and white bass are good so I'm assuming hybrids are good. I haven't kept any because where I catch them well I really don't feel like hauling them up the hill I have to climb. 😄

@@reelguysfishing haha im pretty sure these are stocked by the state so i guess it really wouldnt hurt to eat one, but id still rather put em back for other people to catch.

@@fishinwithish They are almost always stocked. Even if we had true Stripers in there (which would have to have been stocked anyway), White Bass and Stripers spawn at just different enough times and conditions that the chance of a naturally occurring hybrid is slim to none.

This was in PA. Yeah these are a rare sight here for sure, usually walleye and sauger. As far as cheat river, I've fished the lake lynn dam a few times but that's it. Thanks for watchin!!!!

Wholey crap!!!! Thats crazy! That wouldve been my PB times 3!!!! nice!

It was a very pleasant surprise thats for sure!!! Thanks for watchin!

Google maps is your best friend when it comes to finding new fishing spots. My little secret to that is to hit the layers button on google maps app (top right) and under map type select default and it will show all water in bright blue. From there just follow the water and find spots!

@@fishinwithish 👍I’ll have to check that out on day

Whattt white bass/striper=wiper lol even the guys that were there fishin called them wipers lol.

I'm not sure, thanks for watchin?🙃

Thanks!!! I have plenty more vids to come so far this year has been veey good for me! I dont know much of the story of the wipers here in pa, but there are a few locks (not mentioning names) very close to wv that I have fished and my buddy chris pulled out a 25" wiper. So i imagine they have them in wv also.

Thanks for watchin!!! Half the fun is finding the spot!!!

Are you talking hybrids that big or actual stripers? Either way 15+ lb would be insane!!!

I can't say which dam this was but I can say it's on the Monongahela in southwest PA. It's rare to come across wipers where I see maybe 10 landed all year. Thanks for watchin!!!

Thanks man!!! Yeah this was last week, the last couple days have been pretty crappy. But yes it is that time and any day could be the day! Thanks for watchin!

Thanks!!! This is a lock to let boat traffic pass. Thanks for watchin!!!

I would call it not good haha.

I dont give away locations, finding them is part of the fun!

I dont give out locations, google maps is your best friend! Thanks for watchin!!!

I dont think theres a prison around here, but any lock has the possibility of crazy fish. If your able to fish it I would!

You sure? 😂

Yes I am positive i got it from you, I just couldnt think of what you called it ... Which is crazy cause it makes so much sense to call it a personal worst 🤣🤣🤣. When i am catchin fish my brain just melts away sometimes hahah.

@@fishinwithish Still finishing the video and you're just getting that wiper in... Wow

@@JumbleTronChannel hahaha that 2nd wiper was a beast!!! I have seen pictures from people catching these in the 20+lb range...😳. I just cant believe I i got these guys on my small swimbait that i used for smallies!!!

@@fishinwithish You catch more big fish unexpectedly than anyone I see! Just getting to wiper #2😲

@@JumbleTronChannel hahaha. Theres an old saying, "I would rather be lucky than good." I agree with that saying 100%!!!
