That smallmouth may have showed the bowfin not to come near but by my assumption a bowfin would probably win a fight if they some reason did

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

I agree. Don't mess with bowfin.

My fav fish ! Here in Minnesota we are blessed with thousands of smallie lakes. Have had days where I caught over 70 fish !

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Sounds awesome!

@grenmoyo3968 Месяц назад

Just caught one yesterday. First fish in ten years. Didn't even know I hooked at first till he started jumpin outta the water.

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Smallies love to jump!

There’s a lake near me which in the summer has the best smallmouth bass fishing ever. Easy 100 fish days. So fun. Love these guys

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

@andreasn6242 Месяц назад

Fished for mostly largemouth until a friend from work introduced me to smallmouth in a creek here in Central PA last year. They are by far my favorite fish to target now for the reason you stated in the very beginning. I'm lucky the Susquehanna is close by too!

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Yeah they are tons of fun

@BWStudios2001 Месяц назад

One thing i found interesting is where to catch smallmouth is in rivers, dams, and spillways. Pretty good educational video, i would like to see white/hybrid/striped bass video. Also, keep doing you! 👍🎣

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Thanks for the feedback. We don't have stripers or hybrids (wipers) here but we do have white bass. That would be a fun species to cover too.

@BWStudios2001 Месяц назад

@@FishingwithNatIf you have time and want to catch wipers, me as a mid-western would suggest Iowa, specifically Iowa City and its spillway/dam. Though theres alot of people there, so I would suggest going there pretty early in the morning.

Beautiful videos, I just discovered them. Can you make more videos on catching lake and river trout? Also on trolling and jigging as fishing techniques?

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Thank you. Yes, I will be making more of these with a mix of common species and uncommon (or poorly understood) species. I'm working on a video featuring jigging techniques too.

@intenseboardsports Месяц назад

For the last two days I've targeted smallmouth and only gotten a few really small ones using 3 inch paddle tails and jerk baits

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Both of those baits are good for smallies. You might need to try a different habitat. Try going deeper or near major structure (laydowns, rock bars, stumps...)

@intenseboardsports Месяц назад

@@FishingwithNat thanks nat. I'll try that out this week

@daemonmignanelli-lr5ng Месяц назад

Can you do a video like this on chain pickerrel

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

Pickerels are hard to find around here for me to film or catch, but I'd love to.

@pineapplecuber4173 Месяц назад

Hey, Nat. I fish for trout, panfish, and bass. I use spinners like rooster tails and panther martins and soft plastics with jigheads. What would be the most all-around rod choice in both power and action to fit all of that pretty well?

@FishingwithNat Месяц назад

I'd recommend a 6.5-7ft medium-light, fast action. It can handle any of those species unless you're after really big ones or fishing in heavy cover. I made this video below for beginner anglers looking to expand their fishing gear collections. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rhhBPNUXYis.html
