Big thanks to GMC for saving my butt when I needed a truck...blew the transmission on mine :( Check out all of the features of the 2500 here: www.gmc.com/trucks/sierra/2500hd-3500hd/denali
@@brettl2312 yeah I mean you might be right I caught a fish the other day that looked 5 and it was only 3.22 but my scale isnt high quality so I think it was wrong
Must be pretty cool to work in an industry you can interrupt a business call to reel in a hog and have everyone else be like "oh yeah makes sense nice catch...anyway." Great video man thanks!
Texas rig is the goat. The GOAT!!!! My first fish ever was on a texas rig 1/8 oz zoom watemelon red speed worm. its so effective that when i fish with my friends we dont allow ourselfs to use texas rigs.I actually almost never throw a texas rig without a weight i just found it to be the most comfortable for me, especiallyin my bodies of water. Thanks a lot tho tyler! This info you just gave me will allow me to catch even more fish on the classic T rig than ever before.
im only half way through the vid and i have to say you are great a educating us on fishing techniques so thank you we appreciate you and all the hard work. May God Bless and tight lines we cant wait for the next one tyler
I take 5 rods with me every time i go fishing (because it’s easier to switch rods than constantly tying on something else) and Texas rig is on one of them always. ALWAYS. Swimbait is always one too. Crankbait or Lipless is a must too those are my 3 guaranteed rigs year round.
Holy cow, I started with the Texas rig. I honestly felt like I had a lot of knowledge regarding the Texas rig... Yeah mind blown 🤯. Such good information. You solved a lot of problems for me in this video. 🙏. Tight lines 🎣
Great video. I just started messing around with different weights. I only fish 6-8ft ponds / bodies of water. Last year I decided to try a baitcaster so I only used 1/4oz. This year with confidence in casting ive been dropping the weights. Now I fish weightless or an 1/8th oz. I really don’t need anything else.
Great day Tyler. You are having a great spring. I bet that hybrid would have worked on that rocky bank! Texas rig in Texas gets it done. Ott Defoe just won Heavy Hitters in Texas with the Texas rig.
It probably would have, if these fish were not all most likely on beds. They needed the Texas rig moved ultra slow or else I missed them. So it would’ve been possible to elicit a reaction strike, but not for all of these fish
Tyler, thanks for so much valuable information. Without a doubt the texas rig is hands down my favorite presentation. You are so well spoken and explain things quickly but in in great detail. I'm never bored when watching your very well made videos. I'm sure I'll land a few more fish because of your great tips. I'm going to try going weightless more often. Take care my friend and thanks again!!
I know the comment is late but I love your content and what you stand for as in the Lord Jesus and for that I'm subscribing your a good angler that loves the Lord literally the best thing ever!
@@TylersReelFishingyou don't think it hurts the fish ? Genuine question . I personally love the look of your hook sets . But I've seen some jacked up months on a few bass recently and was wondering if it could effect there quality of life
It’s been so windy lately I’ve almost exclusively used half ounce weights and not just in deep water lol. I know you don’t like em but they’re good for windy weather too.
Yup! 1/4 was too big for me because most of the cheap rod and/or reel combos u see at the store are not that strong. Is not until i started to go after catfish that i realized that even 1oz is nothing for a 25lbs rod...
I personally never fish them with a weight here in Ohio. When I want to throw something for bottom presentation I usually put on a Shaky Head or a vmc rugby head
Man I really enjoy all your videos I watch especially the bank videos because that’s how I get to fish. I caught a nice 7 lb bass this past Saturday on a weighted Texas rig in some Lilly pads on a east Texas lake keep up the awesome work looking forward to your next video
Tyler I noticed the bass in my pond are chasing shad. When I am hitting the bottom and bouncing the lure they arent biting. But when I keep it above the grass at about 1ft boom snags. Ive noticed the No weight has been working better for me. It could be because of the amount of Brush in the pond. God the videos you make are just fantastic!
Dude love your job. To bad you don't eat them. I love your channel and I have been using your technics and been slamming big bass. My son and I are having so much fun. Keep up your good work.
Man your videos are awesome great audio never distorted you doing an amazing job with editing your videos keep up the great work man! Can you please do a video for new anglers bank fishing ponds and what the best baits are for summer time
I could be wrong but I was surprised when I didn't hear anything about fishing in the wind. Even a moderate wind will cause a big bow in your line which will pull tour bait along with it. It might never hit the bottom. Using a weight is your only option in that case.
That is true. But most of the time, in intense wind like that, I’m not throwing a Texas rig. The fish “should” be biting more reactionary lures if the bottom contours allow it.
I started bass fishing seriously yesterday and I was using a Texas rig with a craw and a 5/16 weight. I caught my bass with in 40 minutes. The water is probably 0-4 feet so I might go weightless next time just to see!
Hey Tyler awesome info on one of the pioneer lures of this sport. How did you get a partnership with a truck company for those who are trying to get sponsors? Keep up the hard work.👍
They reached out to me man! Here are some helpful resources I’ve made on sponsors though: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C7p1RksQiKc.html open.spotify.com/episode/70m3JvKabjz6dyn2J5TrPG?si=BgjXG7-eTfuUIv-d-wDUiA
what about if your soft plastic has a bigger end ? is it ok to put a smaller weight with the end of the worm being bigger and the worm weight being smaller? you can see the weight looks too small ..does it matter or should I try to size it up better?
Hmm, I rarely throw a weightless t-rig simply because doing so breaks the #1 rule in fishing: COVER MORE WATER. Can't bomb cast without a weight and btw, long cast hook-sets/fish ons are by far the best! Weightless wacky sure. If you know fish are where you can cast a weightless t-rig to then fine but seriously, does anyone really ever know?
Yes, you can absolutely know. You might not know the first time you fish a body of water, but once you learn the seasons, and how they affect that specific body of water, you can pretty much guess where fish are going to be. And when they don’t bite something with a weight, sometimes it takes something without to get that bite
These are great videos. Very informative, and he clearly knows what he’s talking about. However, stop saying the word “literally”all the time! It’s unnecessary!
I am fairly new to fresh water fishing. I am trying to find ways to catch fish from the bank since I dont have a boat any tips? I live in Granbury Texas
All depends on situation. Watch these videos: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d1eNxIho8dc.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5Rizmi_ELuE.html
Tyler, how does wind play in these concepts? Do you change your approach if wind is a factor? I struggle with picking the correct weight concept (weightless or weighted) when wind is in play. I want to get my lure in the strike zone but have found I either go too heavy and get all "mucked" up or too light and my lure ends up way out of the strike zone. Any thoughts?
If it's windy, you of course have to add weight to your T Rig. Now how much is up to you, but with a hard whippy cast (that takes the right brake settings), you can fish in the wind with 1/8oz weight. But for the most part, if it is windy, I am either gonna throw a jig, or just go to reaction baits since the fish should be more active anyways.
I've always liked the Texas rig and is all I throw, I have plenty of other choices but I find myself going back to the Texas rig. I do have one question and I hope someone has an answer. The few months I've been really bass fishing I've been able to catch really nice big bass but unfortunately out of the 5 I have gotten I've gut hooked 3, luckily the bigger ones weren't gut hooked. I've been able to release them all back into the water but I want to know what I'm doing wrong to hook them like that. I know when fish take the line your suppose to set the hook and all that but it seems when I've caught my fish the line is always slack and I realize I have one on when the line gets heavy as I'm reeling in.
Nah, this ain’t a gear thing. You’re just giving them a little too long, and the fish happen to be in a really aggressive hungry mood. It happens to me too sometimes. Just learn how to go through the gills to turn the hook around, and you will save almost every one
@@TylersReelFishing ok thanks will try that. Weirdly tho my friend caught one of a texas rigged rage craw with a 1/4 bullet weight. But seeing that youre saying these baits ill definitely take your word for it!
