I have never been to Florida, but the legends appear to be true. The bass down there have really handsome color patterns. I really needed this, considering that there is six inches of snow and near single digits right now. Thanks for helping me beat the cabin fever...but now I have to get down there some time.
A great day of shiner fishing for bass in anyone's book. Way to go CC !!! Beautiful video & scenery. First time I ever witnessed an owl grab a bait. But I'm not surprised either, after all, they are in the birds of prey family. A couple years ago, an osprey swooped on my hard jerk bait & got hooked. I thought that bird was gonna try to tear me up, but to my surprise, that osprey just laid back very calm, and kept looking me in the eyes & also watching me remove the treble hooks from its feet, like some kind of "patient"....lol. It flew away just fine. Beat all I ever seen, because I didn't use a towel, shirt or anything to protect myself. I believe that darned bird knew I was helping it.......LOL.
Thanks Steve! Yeah that owl grabbing my bait was kind of unusual! That's why I put it in there! As for ospreys I can't tell you how many I've had to unhook in my day! Lol! Again thanks for watching my friend and continued fishing success!
I guess im asking randomly but does any of you know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the account password. I love any help you can offer me.
@Antonio Dominik thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Thanks I needed that after being unable to travel to fish. When this virus goes away would love to book a trip for my husband and son. Thanks from Kentucky
Thanks Michelle and thanks for watching! Yeah it looks like the rest of this season is a wash due to Corona! But maybe next year! If everything is some what back to normal will start taking reservations for 2021 this fall!
Another great Bass for that ass fishing session Captain! Can’t wait for our next adventure! Congrats on 1 million views on your 47 pounds 5 fish limit video bro! Shoot yeah!
I can be reached at (386)325-3743 for info! But now is not a good time! Waiting to see what happens with this Corona Virus thing before I start doing any more charters! Thanks for watching and hopefully one day I can take you fishing!
No doubt my brother ! Your videos have been a good diversion while all this pandemic is going on. Been harassing Bass in my area. But I'm looking for that Trophy Lunker like you catch. Be safe and will defiantly be in touch ! God bless !
Love the vids Cap. Hope to get up your way in the near future. If you don't mind me asking, how far down below the bobber do you set-up the shiner? Amazing how much darker those river Bass are. Thanks. 🌴🍀😎👍🇱🇷
Beautiful bass. I want to try shiner fishing where I live. I am hoping you can recommend the proper hooks and floats to use. Are you using circle hooks? And what size? Type of float? I live in the Philadelphia area. Thanks!
Experience and trial and error. Also knowing when to fish an area and when not to. Weather conditions. Time of year. Moon phase. How high is the water. Has it rained a lot! How much pressure has an area received lately. All these factors have to be weighed to consistently catch trophy class bass!
I get my bait at Howards in Orange Springs. But sometimes I have to catch them myself. Advantage Sports in Salt Springs and Hawthorn bait and Tackle in Hawthorn has them too. Wild shiners are in very high demand this time of year and can be very hard to get sometimes!
I look for deep brush filled outer bends! Also points and creek mouths! I also use my sidefinder to locate schools of nice bass! Also you can use your eyes to spot fish in some places of the Ocklawaha where it's real clear like above Rodman Dam! However good old trial and error will probably be your best strategy! Thanks for watching dbrau and good fishing to ya!
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler thanks CC! do you usually fish in the mornings? we tried the river 2 afternoons earlier this month and didnt catch one bass. :(
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler well sum'bitch! i mustve been fishing in the wrong places then.. :/ the water i fished looked murkier then the ones in your videos, maybe that was the issue??
Absolutely horrible way you held some of those fish, especially for the size. Holding a larger bass just by the jaw, at an angle, and not supporting their belly can and does cause injury to their jaw. They may swim off fine, but their jaw is injured or even broken, impairing their ability to eat. I'm not knocking you or bashing you, a lot of people just aren't aware. Definitely google "how to hold a bass", you'll see what I'm talking about. Specifically referring to the fish at the 19:14 mark in this video. Tight lines!
