Fishing Post Spawn Bass. 

Awesome video Steve thanks for the tips.

Thanks for the information new guy here learning the ropes

Doug Hannon may be the Bass Professor, but Steve Cooper is the Delta’s favorite Bass Coach! This was awesome! Seriously, nobody does this. Great, great video and a big ol’ heart for your audience. No inflated freaking ego, just an excellent fisherman who wants you to be successful and have fun. All the best to you Coach!

Steve, I went out yesterday and caught 26. Chatterbait in the early morning as the tide was almost at the top and Senkos after that. I took your advice about the rocky banks and tullies. I didn't have the weights you showed so I used some finish nails. They helped since it was a bit breezy.

Great video. Densely packed with useful information. Thank you!

Great report. I'll be out there tomorrow to give it a shot.

If you have a seminar at The Bass Hole my dad and I are totally there. We watch all your videos and we definitely need confidence. You should set something up with a set price per person and I'm sure a lot of people will show up.

Thanks Steve great report great tips I have been struggling a little bit lately but usually catch a couple good fish in the 3 to 4 lb range each trip but they seem to be fewer and farther between then they were a couple weeks ago for me.

I’d love the opportunity for some instruction on a Saturday evening during the week. New bass fisherman here.

Preferred knot for Braid to Mono? Why do you prefer Mono over FC? Excellent video, keep them coming, thanks for all your hard work making these videos!

Steve, just an amazing tutorial on how to fish the Delta. Many many thanks. And so many resulting questions, but a couple of things jumped out at me. On the wacky rig, why the neko weight instead of a weighted wacky hook such as VMC? Different action? Won't it get down just as fast? And Max Ultragreen! Not fluoro? At one time I used Ultragreen for everything, but doesn't fluoro sink better and more abrasion resistant? Finally, I am in SoCal, but if I were in town and available, I would consider driving up to attend the informal get together you spoke about. With 10K followers you could run for public office (but who would want to?).Thanks again.

Steve, pitching and flipping are very difficult from a kayak. I am 76 years old and do not stand in my kayak. Over hand casting and side casting are all I can really do. Some times you have to live with the confines of the fishing style you choose. I agree, side casting is more accurate for finess fishing. Pitching and flipping - No. Also, punching does not work when you are low to the water.

Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge of Delta fishing. I have struggled finding good fishing spots and your experience is enlightening to help us understand the best practices for fishing here in the Delta. Rocks and Tule’s . Breaks in the tule’s. Point's and current. . Now for some more good fishing!

Hey if you ever decide to host a seminar, I would love to be one of your students. Keep that in mind and make sure to post it so I could be one of your first students. Thank you for your advice.

Awesome information, went out Saturday morning with no luck on any size on the Tully banks but caught a nice one on a island with a 6inch senko , tight lines

The delta has to be the most target specific fishery in Northern CA. You’ve got to put the bait where the fish are. You aren’t just blindly combing a bait out into oblivion.

Great video! We learned so much!

Awesome advice as always, your getting me fired up , Ill be down for my annual trip in just over a week. Staying at Windmill this time so will be on the lookout for you around Paradise. What size weight are you using on the Neko rig? Also I have a Bbq buisness and if you do the Meet and Greet I would be down to cook the food depending on the weekend you choose. Tight Lines as always

Great video Mr. Cooper, been looking for one like this. Can't wait to use the info. Thanks, as always, I learn so much from your videos.

I would love to do that. Small bass fisherman bbq. I would do that just to meet the man the myth the legend.

You said don't drag the line behind the boat, I catch alot of fish trolling behind the boat, strippers, trout, bass,Salomon, whatever is bitting.

Congratulations on 10K🎉

Steve this was the video for me… I’m on the right track… need more time on the water. Sometimes when I fish with my friends… and I’m at the back of the boat the majority of the day… but yes throw forward… 👍🏼

Thanks for the videos Steve! Congrats on 10k subscribers! I’ll be out next week paradise.

Great video Steve and very helpful for experience or novice anglers alike! I love fishing dropshot around tule bunches or sparse reeds. The wacky rig is good in the troughs on a higher tide to reduce snagging weights on the rocks. Texas rig I like to fish them on flats and against weed lines or clumps of weeds. I’m a slow fisherman at heart so when I go to use finesse I am sometimes too patient on my approach haha.

#You Have My Number. I’m ready to break Roland Martin’s P.B. @ 12.6 👁️ think ???…. N Even 13.9+… Should Do 🎣. I do need a witness Coop! N Your Special Set Of Skills N @ Bass Boat. My boat is very close I did drop it N @ P.P.M. Yesterday just to test it. I already knew my trim button @ the helm was still out… F Word Out Loud. The trim @ the motor still works. I have said 2 much 2 you about it already. Yes I’m sad… N yes I believe the delta holds bigger bass than Texas. I don’t think people find the Giant for a reason. We have caught really big ones on cut bait and live bait. Texas may have bigger bass ???. I’m not from Texas Coop!

Make some new memories. ?

Love the line up. I have them all tied up except for the toad on underspin. I need to try that one

Great video. Appreciate the tips and suggestions. If you hold a tutorial get together please post on the channel. Bass Hole be great spot since it’s close by for me.

Great gear and technique tips, Coop!!! I find that Low Tide is what separates the Delta Hammers from the weekend and novice anglers. With the baits you mentioned, what’s you’re advice on fishing them during low tide when the fish have pulled off the bank/tullies?

Hey Steve! I went out today after I watched your report yesterday and I had high hopes. I was majorly let down. I’ve fished the delta since I was very young and I’d like to think I have it somewhat figured out. I caught about 6 bass less than a point and that was it. I’m not sure what to do anymore.

I found that over the years bass are lazy fish, unlike stripers. Unless they are really hungry, they won't chase the bait. To get the reaction bite, is key. For accurate casting, the length of the rod should be a few inches to at most a foot taller than your height. In the old days, rods are relatively short but I guess as we get better rod materials, rods are getting longer and longer. With longer rods, casting distance will increase but accuracy will decrease.

I have a few leaks on the bottom where the rivets are….Both sides. My boats jacked up to one side @ the moment. I have some stuff that really works and last for the rivets..it’s just ugly and takes away from my undersides smoothnesses. Nothing crazy. I know it doesn’t take much for the water to catch it and take speed away. My boat isn’t that fast…not bass boat fast. I’ll need a seadoo for that Steve… 💦 I do have a few stories that aren’t stories 4 Ya Coop!

Hey Steve, can you point me in a direction of where to fish without giving your secret spot away. Finding an area to fish has been my downfall thanks Camoguy

Maybe you can hold a annual bass tournament with a small entry fee…. Like $25-$50

Great video Steve! I like that you emphasize the fundamentals with just a few baits to cover most of the conditions we'll encounter on the delta. I'm heading out tomorrow morning and I'll put your strategy into practice.

What is you standard weight to pitch a worm with a bait caster? I am an amataur with both flipping and baitcasters.

Delta mice 🤣

i’m down for the get together 👏

Great video. I agree with @kencroy2815. No big ego hiding all the tricks etc.. Just wants us to have some success. Thanks Steve. One of these days soon I'll get up back up and maybe see you there.

School is in session, thx Steve

Hi Steve, sorry for the stupid question but what do you mean rocks and tulies, what is tulie or tulle or tully?
