Dude, the Spunk Shad on the back of a Mini Max is fire! I rigged it last week an caught a bundle. Let it sink, slow roll it, twitch, change speeds, let it fall, let it make contact and hold on! I use the Goby Spunk Shad on the back of the Bluegill Mini Max 3/8 ounce Chatterbait.
Thank you again for the tip on the swim. Jigs with the big easy. My brother and I turned in our best bag on the saint john's last week. Just slow rolling it out of the lilies. And getting blown up on
I fish Guntersville as well... It's such a humbling lake. One minute you're catching, the next you're scratching your head wondering what the hell happened.
@@mikeybalzz it really is and the vibration is so tight that it just gets bites that other bladed jigs don't get.. It has become my number one bladed jig and one of my number one presentations overall. Its basically the flatside of bladed jigs. I buy them 5 or 6 at a time.
I think that's the real key back in the day when I fish them I was so worried about having enough money for gas and all that things are a little more comfortable now and it's a lot easier to focus
@@mikeybalzz I hear you on that. Having worries can definitely make for an unclear mind. Excited to see you having a good time out there no matter what!
It sounds like you did really well. 4th place in any tournament is a great outcome! Some guys fish tourneys their entire lives and never even crack the top 10!
There's so much valuable information in this video on how you approached and managed tournament day. Thanks! And yes, a tournament video would be awesome.
Great explanation and super clean look! I think the daily tournament goals that I see in BASS FISHING HQ and Millikan fishing is an interesting way to gain some new subs and provide the tournament type anglers with what they are searching for on RU-vid.
I really enjoyed this one man and how you broke down your decision making process during tourney day. I often run into similar situations while fishing my local derb and could totally relate to your story! Hope you continue making videos like these 💯
Thanks man it might sound funny but it was really helpful for me too to talk about the decisions and really dive deep into them and think about where I was at when.
thanks so much for sharing what's going on in your head in these self-inflicted stress events. your right whether it's trying to just catch more fish with friends or a tournament keeping your head straight is tough. way tougher when the bite is off and nothing is working. way to hang in there like you said a lot of the times a win is just one cast away. best of luck tight lines
Man I would love to come and fish with you for a day ! I think it would be Awesome ! I really like the content you put out. I appreciate it. Tight line dude !
I don't go by Homie Homerson, I'm actually Bro Broerson and here is a tournament tip for ya: When you have fish in the live well, remember to fill it with water. I'll be here all day if yall need more tips and secrets that the pros don't want you to know.
This was awesome ... You did awesome ... No one wins them all you need to win yourself and that's not 1st place ... It's being consistent.. is when the wins come ... You listen to yourself the whole time and the fish don't care who's fishing but who will figure them out ... 👍🔨🎣
We kayak the Tallapoosa river from horseshoe bend to the Jaybird creek boat landing. I wear them out on that mini max. I’ve used the micro and mini chatterbait. They’re good, just not nearly as durable as the mini max. Those spots and Tallapoosa bass love em
Great report for your post tournament result. You should enjoy your time, and I think operating cameras would be too much of a distraction during a tournament especially when your focus should be on the fish. It sure would be for me!😂
One of these days though I'd like to fish a little something and get it on video it's so hard to explain that process and everybody does it different so I think capturing it and putting a little narration along with it would be pretty damn cool
Way to assess MBRF, reflecting on the way you chose to ride out the entire day.and point out those forks in the road we all choose in a moment. Do I chatterbait ,or risk it all Fer 1 big flipping bite! Killer run down bro! Thx for sharing! And it's good to measure 🔨 when you think your on em like kvd ! Go do a tournament and feel it ....... competition is how you learn the best strategy 🤙
Glad you had a good tournament and if you didn't want to film, that is 100% your choice! You give us all such great content and you should DEF have a fun day!! I was wondering if you have done a video on how to fish laydowns over DEEP water? Like 15' - 20' of water and more.
No don’t spill the juice! Those things have caught me so many tanks. I also got 4th place outta 300 in a high school tournament with those on West Point in GA. Got a 6lber on it in the tournament
Ah if you could do me a favor their hey bud, and stop talking about the Mini Max. It would be much appreciated don't cha know. Signed fellow Wisconsinite. LOL
You didn't get enough information from your friends, download waypoints, talk to local guides,put fish in a basket or shove weights down their throats. That's how you win tournaments. # hate bass tournaments
