This was one of the strangest changes in fishing from 1 day the the next that I had ever seen. Also, I caught a bass on a lure that i had never really used before. I learned a lot from this trip.

Remember Billy Westmoreland he wrote a book about small mouth called Ole Bronze Back.Dale Hollow was his favorite.

@ronaldshank7589 Год назад

Dale Hollow...where the World's Biggest Smallmouth Bass was caught, back in, I think, 1971 or so. 11 Pounds, 15 Ounces. I'd love to catch a 12 Pound Smallmouth Bass. Then, I'd be the guy with the new World Record! Over the years, my biggest Smallmouth Bass was around 4 Pounds, so, for me, that ain't nothin' to sneeze at. He put up a great fight, so I'm good with it. Happy Trails to ya, friend, and I hope you do well, in not only your fishin' endeavors, but in life itself!

@anthonyguzlas8408 Год назад

@alexrawleigh3167 Год назад

The book was called "Them ole brown fish". Got a autographed copy from Billy.

@steveboggs9777 Год назад

Not one of your better tournaments, but most definitely a good opportunity to learn. I'm always impressed with the fact that you end every video on a positive note. What makes you more real than most RU-vid fishing channels is that you're willing to share your good as well as your bad days with us. Trust me brother we've all been there at one time or another. But you came away with a positive attitude, you learned something new, and that makes you a better person and a better fisherman.

@alexrawleigh3167 Год назад

John....many years ago there was a bait Billy loved to use on Dale Hollow. In fact he was part in deisinging this particular bait. The lure was called a Pedigo-Spjnrite. I still have e two full cards that Billy gave me many years ago. It is basically and tail spinner similar to a little George but the difference was the unique head and tail dressing. Billy always like the white marabou and yellow marabou. He would basically throw these out on steep clay banks and main lake points. Very simular to how he fished his silver buddy blade bait. The spin rite was eventually bought out by Pradco. You can still find these baits online but very few of his originals are out there. I custom designed a mold years ago and had it cnc machined. Till this day it is one of my favorite baits to use in the winter time. Not many people fish this bait any more because of it availability. As stated I custom made a mold and tie them up myself. There is no telling how many tournaments I have won over the years with a pedigo spi rite.

@JimmyGallowayGuitar Год назад

I'm building my RU-vid channel [guitar] and I'm actually using your channel for ideas. You're a real guy, doing real stuff. No click bait. No gimmicks. And, you keep it clean. I show your vids to my girls. I'm your neighbor kinda, I'm on Signal. Love these vids. I remember fishing DH with my dad. I'm super happy your channel has grown. Well deserved

@skydiver6711 Год назад

I was fishing on the Brazos here in Texas one day and was fishing with a hellgrammite and didn't catch a thing. Then I just took the 1/16 oz weight off it and the first cast caught a fish and continued to catch them all day long. And all I did was take off that weight and fish it weightless. The little things like that count. You hung in there when a lot of people would just go home. Great show. Also, if I had a river that beautiful, I would just stay out there anyway.

@chubbydamron672 Год назад

Man that’s weird how much that hole changed from one day to the next.. great largemouth though! Sometimes we don’t get what we expect but the Lord is there and allowed you a great fish. And your character shines to those other anglers and they see a man who loves Jesus in the midst of them and to me, that’s a win!

@brianathern9154 Год назад

Wow what a difference a day makes. Killing them during pre fishing and stumped until the end on the second. Like I heard it told..You either win or learn something. Perfect example brother. Blessings John

I was wondering when you'd get this video up...sorry it was not the best day. I was following along that day on TourneyX app and saw it wasn't going well. Lessons learned and they don't come cheap. I'm still watching the video, but wanted to jump on the comments. A bubblegum lemon swirl hellgrammite!! That one smallmouth kind of looked like it had freshwater drum back. Thank goodness for that glide bait catch...that was a beautiful bass! Glad you stayed positive, you know there's always a hand on your shoulder.

@marthamitchell9452 Год назад

Still iced over here. Went out to one of our best fishing spots just to see what was happening there. One lonely guy ice fishing. The bridge over the creek where it entered the reservoir had a bit of open water so we dropped down our Aqua-vu camera to see if anything was there. Not one fish was visible, not even a small one. The water was fairly clear still since the snow isn’t melting yet. I don’t think the guy on the ice was having any luck either.

That's not a bad day. You caught a nice Bass. and a small one. Dale Hollow takes some time to understand. it's very dependent on the time of year as far as where to fish. Steep rock walls are good. Early spring up in the shallow creek areas like you were fishing. Did you use the Hellgramite?
