Fishing Tips for Beginners - Top 3 Ways to Catch More Bass 

Fellow fishers are genuinely nice in my experiences

Literally just met a real swell dude named Travis at the lake this morning. Fishermen have a bond just like bikers.

I would add that if you're bringing out children or ppl fishing for their 1st time; bring a can of nightcrawlers. That way you can almost guarantee that they will catch at least a few fish.

I don't usually catch many fish if any but I just love being out and trying I could do it all day

My problem is that when I talk to a fellow fisher I usually can’t get them to shut up afterwards 🤣

Here's something for those catching or fishing for trout. DO NOT UNDER ANY CONDITION use a cloth rag, or a cloth shirt, or a cloth net to hold or catch it (no fabrics) . Anything besides your hand will rub off the oils coating the trouts scales which make the trout less immune to disease and other illnesses, meaning when you'd release it- it would most likely die.

Some people are so nice I was fly fishing last night just started last year and a guy who was leaving gave me about ten home made flys and sum tips to cast better

3 great tips that have helped me no end. I swapped down from a 14cm to a 7cm lure and caught a 10lb pike! I always change spots and it definitely works to keep mobile when lure fishing. Asking for help or for tips from local anglers has caught me fish before also!

I caught my first Bass today with a Texas rig, what a feeling!

I started sport-fishing two years ago, with zero experience, whatsoever! I got on a boat that takes veterans out and my passion exploded! In two years I’ve made tons of reel (like that) friends, who’ve turned into life time brothers and the best part is they’ve all taken me under their wings! Not only have a got some pretty bad ass free gear, this year I start my new job as a deck hand on a veteran charter guide boat. Talk about manifesting your destiny and dreams. Tomorrow I leave for two weeks to fish Detroit Lake for Kokanee and the following week we are in Newport Oregon to fish for Herring in The Yaquina Bay. All bait fish for the big dogs out in the deep blue sea. Tight Lines and Good Tides!

Fishermen are honestly some of the funniest and nicest people I've met. Any time I go out I can just talk to one and we have a conversation like old friends. Great hobbg

I’ve always loved fishing because everyone you meet is almost always nice and shares a bunch of helpful advice.

Alaska: ask a fisher for help he will fight you. Don’t get near another fisher in alaska

#1EnjoyFishingForNoFish -even if you're not catching, don't get upset, It's called fishing not catching. Doesn't matter if you catch 1fish, or 1,000fish, it's going to be the same.

I remember when I was 18 and this guy in his 30s was pulling in fish and I didn’t even get a bite and he said “hold on try this bitch right here” and gave me his lure and I still out catch just about anybody I fish with with it!

Always useful thank you

Amazing, and that last tip is a very important tip for sure.

Fishermen are some of the nicest people alive. I’ve learned so much just askin a question. Never got anything but help and support

The people are one of the reasons I love fishing. Even if your at a tournament they are nice. One time, I was fishing at my local pond, and a guy saw I wasn’t catching anything on grub lures, he rolls up with his massive tackle box, pulls out an entire box of minnow lures and just gives them to me

Bass angler here im south africa are wholesome af I had this littelkid that was struggling to catch somthing so i hooked up and wasnt bad a 3.5 kg bass an hand3d him the rod the moment i set the hook Man that smile on his face was to pure

Yamamoto senkos, green pumkin, black and blue, they all work, only lure you need for bass

I agree! I use tiny lures and constantly get bites!

The pond down the road from my house I caught a 5 pound using a crawfish Small Luer

It’s so fun to use small fishing rods you can feel the fish bite so fast I caught so many catfish with small rod

I live in Plymouth and I asked these guys what they were using because in the past 10 minutes the caught 2 rainbow trout they were just using power bait.

Bro saying “And if youre lucky enough, they might share bait with you” like RNG type shit from a videogame 😭😭😭

Once I cought 2 catfish in 5 min

Ultra Light fishing is really worth to try! So much fun and the bigger fish are just amazing on the light material

Three great tips I use every day I fish. Especially that 3rd one. I had a great conversation with an older fisherman a month ago. Learned a new trick 👍🏻

Recognize those old mills and smokestacks and bridges anywhere baby! Lawrence, MA!!!!! ❤🎉

I love you the tips keep up the great work. Will watch in the future

Your vids are chill man, i like them.

He's right. I have gotten some great tips on lure fishing from that dude next to you catching fish. I was surprised how willing they were to help me out and give tips. I've even had someone give my spoon and my son caught a decent Northern Pike. His first lure catch. Good video bro.

It’s true people are really nice, I went fishing yesterday and asked someone for help. He showed me how to throw certain baits and rig them up and even showed me a proper knot tie

these are really good tips even for experienced anglers. especially the covering water one. i’ve witnessed many people at my local ponds set up in one spot and not move for hours. i’m constantly moving, my goal is to make sure every fish in the body of water sees my lure at least once. great video!

Just got my tuctek kayak and gonna be using it next weekend. I hope to spend most of the day on the water just learning since I'm still new but also enjoying the day on the lake.

Agreed. Other fisherman are pretty nice. Went to a lodge and was kyak fishing and asked a guy what's hittin. Told me to come over to his boat and he gave me one of his lures. Then proceeded to fish with him on his boat and catch tons of rock bass and a pickerel

I recently started fishing and the community is the nicest giving me tips giving me baits I love this community

I fish at a certain pond VERY frequently so I kinda know what lures work in that pond, and anytime someone asks what I’m using I will always give them one.

Straight to the point and true/great tips!

Great channel man !

Gotta love the educational videos 🙏🏼

That last bit is so true, some of the nicest people on the planet include hunters, fishers, and fighters.

There was this one guy who limited on trout (which is five) at this pond in like 30 min and we were wondering what he used. Weeks later we see him and ask him what to do and he gave us some baits to use for trout and I caught a 17 inch stocked trout. Definitely don’t be afraid to ask

Haha you used the little orange senko that came with the bait getter thing 👍👍👍

I could never agree more on the last. This nice man (named AJ) was with his wife. He knew what he was doing and we caught at least 5 total fish. He said I can borrow his works and I caught my first ever fish (without to much assist.) There was also this nameless fisherman that let me get some Larve. Didn’t catch anything but, still fun. Thanks AJ, and thank you nameless fisherman.

Wherever new I go,vi always ask for advise on how to fish the area. I've learned lots of valuable information from asking.

Excellent tips. Right on.

Totally agree about downsizing lures. My gosh are the lures most stores sell way to big. Look for the Jr. version of a bait you want to try most of the time. Especially if you use a spinning rod

Great advice,I always toss some swim baits and curly tailed grubs already rigged up on lead heads to younger people fishing near me.Those 2 inch Bobby Garland shads catch pretty much anything that swims.

My best tip is always bring a pumpkin green Chigger quad! I'm never let down with a couple of these and NEVER leave as the sun is going down! Fish bite after that until around 9:00. Goodluck!!

Thank you for the tops. I agree about the third tip…

The tip about changing spots is a good one - I used to just sit in one place for hours, not catching anything, cuz I just didn't understand that was something that mattered lol

Fishing is kinda a brotherly community. Many ppl will help in my opinion. I've given ppl like 2 dozen large shiners (I usually have one pole with live bait and 1 for lures etc) and shown them how to set it up and explain the whole time I'm setting it up for them.

The river part is so true I can stand in any spot and hammer fish all day without stop

Great advice

Fisherman love to talk about their success. I always chat up people fishing even if I’m not fishing, so I have that info for the next time

Little comment to the 3rd tip fisherman from my experiences are some of the nicest people I've met

Tip 3 is the best. I'm always trying to help people who ask, got my buddy on a 4lb toad. He's been out ever since haha

#1 is sooo underrated... too many people treating the size of their bait/lures like they are lifted trucks. If you use something small it has no affect on the size of your "manhood"

On my first bfs setup I was using a tiny minnow crankbait and probably caught every dink in that pond for the beginner I would recxoemnd an ultralight spinning setup to avoid backlash though takes awhile to learn to dial the breaks and stuff

Another good tip is to make sure your licenses are up to date.

I started with you and I do feel pretty seasoned now. Now I just need to find a job where I can work remotely aka from a boat

My favorite topwater lure is a popper

Fisherman are so nice I’ve borrowed so many baits and had so many great experiences

I have met the nicest people while fishing. Its like an unwritten fishing rule … if you need something or have something to help someone, you do.

For bass, Dropshot, dropshot, and dropshot again. It’s like playing on easy mode, okay with colors and sizes

Fishing in the north east is good with fitness worms and bandito bugs and flipping jigs use small top waters in the summer the fish love it

As an avid fisherman I absolutely love when people ask for advice

I used your tip of moving spots if you feel like it's dead. Every 30 to 45 min I'd switch spots. Had a dryspell for like an hour then found a honey hole and swept up about 30 fish. Channel cat crappie and bluegill. Thanks for the t

Changing spots is good but when you run out of spots like where I fish spots are limited so I recommend changing luers are speed or prasatation especially when there a lot of people bank fishing for bass

i would be honestly happy to give someone a lure or 2 and some tips, just another fellow fisherman thats soon to be a master!

Thanks bro

I always try to help out when asked. Everyone deserves a good time.

I have been fishing since I was 5 and all these things this guy said I’ve done and are very helpfull

One time I was using corn and couldn't catch anything and this family gave me a full carton of worms this guy ain't lyin

You are very good at fishing keep going

Downsize is a good tip I have caught my biggest fresh water bass (large mouth bass 3.5kg) on a half inch poper

You just speak facts with those advices

Thanks!

Honestly some of my best random friendships have been talking to someone fishing near me

The good Ol' half orange senko 😂

I would say use something easier too like a chatter bait or a spinner bait where you’re just casting and retrieving!!

Great vid

Here's a tip for beginning bass fishermen start out with a small weightless worm on a texas rig and just hop it across the bottom that's how I caught my pb and first few bass

Most important thing, HAVE FUN. Try new spots, new lures, dont get down on urself if u get skunked, it happens to the best of us.

Fisherman are nice cause it’s like the only time your just at peace with everything untill a birds nest

Im a fisherman and I tell you fishermans are always open for questions and like to give advice

Awesome tips

I remember being unable to tie a knot on a lure. My brother had dropped me off so I had nobody to help. Thankfully, some guys came fishing and showed me how to tie a polymer knot. Thanks to them, my day was saved

“Down size your lures” me searching for something smaller than mini trout magnet

Yes sir great tips!

Can you make a video on how to choose a rod for surf fishing? Mine is way too heavy and I don’t know if I should stick with it or get another one.

I fish at a rural dock at dale hollow and everyone is nice

I was fishing with power bait one day and I wasn't having any luck, and old guy across the creek was fishing with worms and was catching everything. He walked across the creek and gave me some of his worms. Fishermen should always look out for each other.

I would say get a fishing buddy because you need one to land and help you and they are just nice to have

If you're having issues with your knots remember it's easier to pass your loop over your tag end rather than push your tag end through

I was catching a big bluegill every time i throw out my line with bobber …the folks next to me with a little kid had big ole nightcrawlers and no bobbers…so i lent them a couple of mine and some wax worms and they caught fish finally and the little boy was so excited! I felt bad seeing him watching me as his liine was just sitting on the lake bottom doing nothing…….i was happy to help out as I had alot of bait and a tackle box full of bobbers and hooks and everything one can fit in a tackle box….😆😁

I once asked the guy next to me for tips and he gave me a lure and it works like a bomb

Brotherly fishing is always 🫡🎣🎣🎣
