Find the size of thin walled aluminum arrow shaft, cut a foot piece and keep it in the boat. I am fishing with a custom rod that broke in the same exact place. I cut it with a dremel and cutting wheel, put just enough tape on the arrow shaft (2413) to keep it secure in the rod, and taped the shit out of it. Feel’s actually good. So I’m still using it lol.

@Three-13 Год назад

Another B-B-B-B-B-BANGER video!!! Appreciate you, Chris

@PolloOutdoors Год назад

I’ve watched every single video on your channel and this is up there for one of the most entertaining videos I’ve watched you put out. Smallmouth hammer

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

Glad you enjoy it! Thanks brother

@troyrichardson4049 Год назад

You are so good with big baits and spoons. Love watching these vids!

@joelhutchinson4281 Год назад

Great Show 👍🏻🌶

@wmweekendwarrior1166 Год назад

What a good dude

@Mjones8383 Год назад

When points dont matter and the money is the same no matter where you finish, makes for a fun ass time. I know youd rather been weighing each fish for ounces so you could be in that top 10, but damn ghat was fun to watch

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

Yes, exactly!!!

@Handtiedbaits Год назад

I bet those old Megabass rods are looking pretty good right about now.

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

You’re joking right? I broke more Megabass rods than any brand in my career. I’m very hard on rods, which says everything about how well my 13s are built. I assume you didn’t watch the video but when you high stick a rod that’s not made for the bait you have tied on because the trolling motor came down on the butt of the one you brought- it will happen 😜

@Mjones8383 Год назад

Megabass are fantastic rods but they are very very sensitive, to bites and breaks. Know what you're talking about in the future so you don't keep looking like a D bag

@jnjbassphanatic6816 Год назад

Megabass ain’t all what it’s cracked up to be they have some good stuff but it ain’t worth the money

@jnjbassphanatic6816 Год назад

Yes sir them Megabass rods are tradh

@jnjbassphanatic6816 Год назад

Trash

@jamiehamilton8832 Год назад

Real sportsman right there. Releasing multiple fish that are larger because of the health of the fish. I don't know about anybody else but I find that truly respectful and responsible. A true representative of the sport.

@theguttie Год назад

It’s fun watching you have fun again! Keep grinding! Get some!

@LuckyLucky-bm1pg Год назад

great video. the only company known for non breakable rods are uglystick. i broke my 6th sense lux early this summer on a 2lb pike i was 😡 it broke, but its also feels kinda good when ya rod breaks with a good size fish on it. tight lines Chris.

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

Eh, it 100000% wasn’t the rods fault. I do all the things you shouldn’t do with them and they hold up the majority of the time

@jeremygilreath224 Год назад

@skidemn Год назад

This is probably the best video I’ve seen of your tournament career Chris! I’m not saying that because of the large number of fish you caught, the great information you shared or the place you finished in the tournament, but rather your overall joy and happiness that is so infectious! I had to smile myself just watching, as it made me genuinely happy for you and lifted me up as well! I have always enjoyed your content, but this one is even more special because everyone can feel how much fun you are having here and it’s just a great moment to share.

@johndominguez7404 Год назад

@doylewarkentin8762 Год назад

I have always appreciated the education during tournaments that Chris offers. He takes time out for those of us that are not tournaments fisherman. Thanks Chris from Central California. If you make it out here to do some fishing again I would sure like to meet up and have you teach me some things.

@stevenkirby7478 Год назад

Man those forward facing sonar fish are the real thing, uh? Nothing like watching someone on TV watching TV. Nuff said.

@bradleyrussell1973 Год назад

Wait…..hardware stores?? Are those just simple generic spoons like in a kid’s kit or camping kit? If so ….PLEASE tell me now!! I so need that info! Lol

@justinnelson7890 Год назад

Wtf was that?? Looks like the ol Surface Sturgeon.. AKA NESSY😂!!

@ducksinmyhearttaylor3957 Год назад

Them northern fish probably only see a spoon when the lakes are frozen. Great move in my opinion on breaking out the spoon that is what separates real fisherman from the regular crowd that is doing what everyone else is. You are all ways trying to do something different and that’s what I love about your style. Keep it up. I know better days are coming for you next year. Now it’s time to just go have some fun fishing with Tate!!

@notillegal6771 Год назад

This has been a season of gear failure for my buddy and i.... 3 pro greens. A custom phenix travel rod and rodgeeks little pond setup my buddy built and broke..... I broke a phenix k2, nrx+ jig and worm, and a tranx 151 destroyed by stripers.

Big bass Big stage big dreams lfg

@jamesbarron1202 Год назад

How many Meanmouth or Smallmouth have you caught from Ray Roberts? I know you fish it at times. I’ve only caught 3 Meanmouth and no smallmouth but I also fish big baits most of the time. I live 5 minutes from the ramp. The only smallmouth I’ve ever caught were from Texoma and I was targeting them.

@funkymojo111 Год назад

Thanks for high quality vids; great production. Enjoy the pics of what some of the bait fish look like. I have not been able to travel and fish other areas than California and Baja California. Struggling here in urban San Diego city lakes.

60 degrees is nice warm day up north here in ChiRaqlol. We be breaking the jorts and cutoff t’s! Looks like you caught a glimpse of Champ! Love the new content! Then again…. 60 on open water is cold as shit 😂 with that spoon technique, is it applicable from shore if you are casting into deep water? Or is it really vertically focused and target oriented?

@FishcastAngling Год назад

Don’t show people smallies eat things besides drop shots 😂 haha keep up the good work!!

@jbferris8074 Год назад

@@Zaldaingerous Gotcha! Thanks for the reply!

@SasquatchTX Год назад

Damn dude, I hope you have a pile of spare rods in one of the storage bays of the RV! Otherwise I guess an emergency run to Bass Pro would be in order to get some temporary rods until the sponsors can get new rods in your hands. Hell of a day. Good luck on the St. Lawrence.

@johnnymassengale6275 Год назад

Love your content and educational instruction on the water. My dad could work magic with a spoon. I was in the boat with him one day and watched him catch 8 for 56lbs and change. It was something I've never seen before or since. I do have a question, though. Why are you still using a puncture cull tag?

@Drog2730 Год назад

I broke 2 13 meta 610 med light this wk out 400 bucks broke one boat flipping a two pounder gave em another chance cause I loved the feel another broke hard to give them another chance after that local tackle shop said they have got 15 broken ones and hope there is a recall GMAN

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

That’s weird, I haven’t heard of any breaking issues on that line. It was put through a legit torture test high sticking (boat flipping) 5lb weights before they approved things. Did both rods break on the boat flip?

@Drog2730 Год назад

Ya both of them I sold my buddy on one after my first one loved the feel lightness figured it was just a flaw so had to try another and literally lasted 5 or six days

@Drog2730 Год назад

I was told maybe get warranty by next year too bad I got a deep smallie tourney next week on lake of the woods and no drop shot rod now that’s the way she goes hopefully 13 replaces both of them

@primaljpc254 Год назад

After this tournament, zaldain tested would be a good selling point lol

@Zaldaingerous Год назад

The fact that I have had as little breaks with 13 rods compared to everything else in my career says a lot lol I am VERY hard on my rods 🤣

Thank you, Chris, for including the clips of you breaking rods and not cutting that stuff out to avoid disappointing your sponsors. It adds some realism to your videos and for those of us that watch your videos not only to be entertained, but to be educated, that helps us to understand that this stuff happens to pros too. Thanks again! Keep it real 👊🏼

I dont think you gotta worry about what your tourny standings are. I mean i get why you wanna be first, but you already do a lot more than 99% of the guys on tourny trails. What i think is the coolest about you and Trait is no matter what people say or how they act, you guys keep doing your own stuff the way you want.
