As the summer months wrap up, fish of all species begin to migrate back to shallow water to get away from offshore fishing pressure, as well as follow bait returning to skinnier water. Bassmaster Elite Series Pro Carl Jocumsen breaks down how he locates and fishes these high percentage, hard-structured shallow areas with a jig.

When it comes to late summer fishing, finding structure is key. Jocumsen argues that these fish moving shallow this time of year need some sort of hard bottom to sit on, and why utilizing your electronics at hand is so important. On this particular day, Jocumsen found fish stacked on a line of rocks in 7 to 10 feet of water. Using Humminbird MEGA 360 maneuver around rocky transition and MEGA Live TargetLock to pick out individual boulders and fish, Jocumsen is able to quickly able to land on fish.
A jig is and always will be one of Jocumsen’s go-to baits, especially for this specific application. Aside from being a proven big fish catcher, a jig is the perfect bait to slow down with when dealing with finicky bass this time of year. The GT Football Jig by Molix allows Jocumsen to dissect gnarly areas of rock, wood, or anything else he may come across without getting hung up constantly.

What an thorough and well presented view of the total technique Carl. Thank you, we still fear your heart😁

@ralo4265 Год назад

Good stuff Carl! 👀 🎣 👊🏼💯🇦🇺 Thanks for the tips my friend!

this is a really nice video. i love fishing

Simply amazing! And I’ve said it before in comments… But the way you appreciate and respect the technology and equipment you own is second to none. The way you respect the sport and your family is also second to none. Good luck in 2023 Carl, you will be hoisting the blue soon I’m sure of it. Maybe you can even hoist the classic title trophy

Heck yes 🔥 tip to live by!

Oh by the way, before I forget, all of the 360 and live haters out there, they wouldn’t be hating if that was all on the front of their boats. Personally, I own one 10 inch Garmin and as soon as my budget suits the moment, I will be buying a live scope unit for it. Who doesn’t want to unlock more secrets of the deep? All the complaining out there Seems ridiculous to me. I still get to see people hoist fish out of the water which if I’m not mistaken, we still need to get them to eat our bait in their conditions, on their terms

@MassReelFishing Год назад

I think a large majority of the criticism is it’d boring as hell to watch.

@BassinFun Год назад

@@MassReelFishing There’s truth to that to be sure. Which brings up a good idea… Bassmaster only uses 10 cameras, if all you’re going to do is stare down at your graphs, we are going to put your camera in someone else’s boat even if you’re in first place on day four. Sorry dudes but other people want to watch guys that are fishing traditionally… Thank they’ll like that? Hell, some dudes don’t even care to have the camera

@@BassinFun but when it’s a tournament where live sonar is useful (basically all of them now) every guy is using it.

All them screens killed the vid lol dude wasnt even fishin just lookin down at the screens the whole time.

Welcome to modern bass fishing 😅

Go watch Randy if you hate the tech.

@ship4427 Год назад

Rather go watch Hackney or Feider flip and pitch or you know look at the water and cover and fish it like a fisherman.

@Twangtown7 Год назад

I wonder if these guys could even remember how to catch fish anymore if you took away their forward-facing sonar.

@fishncoach8699 Год назад

Using a resource that is readily available doesn't mean someone doesn't have the skills and ability to do it without. It's simply they want to be the best they can which means using what's available.. The guys winning are using it!

@Twangtown7 Год назад

@@fishncoach8699 Oh I don't blame them. If others are using it, you MUST use it if you're a tourney guy. I'm just saying that's all you see nowadays. Even RU-vidrs like Milliken. At some point you'll forget/lose the knowledge/skills you used to have and need to catch fish before forward-facing sonar came out.

@dangerfield85 Год назад

Dislike and abandon video is the #1 way to affect the YT algorithm. W2F won't post these type of videos if that behavior becomes a trend.

@larrybrown4544 Год назад

Wired2Fish..we obviously do not want to see the "stare at the screen the whole time" content. It's crap.

@JoseMartinez-dq4km Год назад

I want 360

@dwd436 Год назад

Click Bait. You meant, "How To Stare at Live Scope and throw a jig at what you see". This is Hunting, not Fishing.

@FishOn1 Год назад

Still gotta get them to bite.

@@FishOn1 lol

@lakeratatouille Год назад

Throw the damn fish back in the water before you start giving a FFS seminar. Locals don’t like that 👌

@slimbidious Год назад

Look at me catching fish with 20 grand of electronics on my boat. How are young kids supposed to look for informational videos to learn to fish when all they see is guys staring at their electronics? At 12 my budget basically got me a cheap zebco and some spinners.
