Glad I was less than 10 miles from home, I think the wrecker bill was under $200. I had a new axle fabricated locally, got new hub bearings from Amazon, fixed it myself at home. Could have been a lot worse.

I have been using a couple of medium heavy Ugly Stick combos. One is a spinning rod, the other is a bait caster.

My tank is 6 feet long and I can keep 6 to 8 dozen shiners easily. I have kept up to 10 dozen alive for a couple of days, but water quality issues are more significant as you increase the shiner load.

An 8 foot tank would allow more water volume.

Follow the old logging road to the top of Whiteside Mountain. Where the trail cuts back to the right at the top of the cliffs there is an unmarked spur trail that drops off to the left. The entire Devils Courthouse trail is a 3 mile loop that comes back to the parking area.

Absolutely 💯

Nope. Just let the shiner swim around until the bass find it. Sometimes we don't even use a cork.

Good luck.

I move around and bait 5 or 6 spots, then come back and throw on the first one. Might be 10 minutes. Then chum a little more as you try each spot and go around again.

Thanks! I've seen guys catch shiners on a rod and reel. Definitely easier with a cast net.

Thank you!

I have been ordering rolls of pond filter material from Amazon. It comes in a roll so you can cut to fit your bucket. Aqua-Flo 12" Pond & Aquarium Filter Media, 72" (6 Feet) Long x 1" Thick (Green/White) a.co/d/aGGfAZT

I didn't know you could order it in rolls!. In someone else's video, he was cutting up a/c filters, and it probably wasn't filtering as well. Thank you for your reply!

Thanks Norm!! It was definitely a fun day!

Thanks Mack!! The wind was crazy.

Pretty sure they just spayed too. Those hydrilla mats shouldn't be yellow.

Haha! He was in that hyrilla so deep I had to cut 2 minutes of us trying to maneuver the boat. Thanks!

100 gallon tank, I rarely fill more than 30 to 40 gallons with a cover.

@@ThatShinerGuy wish me luck, I'm feeling inspired lol

Good luck.

Thank you! Wind was definitely a challenge.

Thank you for watching and commenting. It was my nephews first trip to that lake, can't wait to take him again.

You can keep them for a couple of weeks in cold weather with daily water changes. Water quality will improve after 2 or 3 days as they purge out if you don't feed them.

Thank you very much!! I run around and bait 3 or 4 spots while it soaks, Probably 10 to 15 minutes. I re-bait each spot and hit it again.

@@ThatShinerGuy awesome. Thanks for that tip.

I hope your luck is better than mine. One end of the axle was damaged from dragging on the road. The other bearing wouldn't come off even with a sledge hammer. Still could have been worse.

Yes shortly after we filmed the video. 13 million gallons leaked out.

@@ThatShinerGuy ugh, that state is going to kill all of the fisheries down there before 2030 at this rate. all the unnecessary spraying, jesus

Thanks!! The weather is definitely warming up down here. Work keeps me pretty busy, but I try to get out on the water when I can.

Thank you very much!!

Florida

Thank you! She was really excited!!

Oh yeah!!

Ice is for sweet tea! Grace had a great time out there with me. She's ready to go again!!

@@ThatShinerGuy ice actually is pretty fun!

Thank you! Weather was nice and she really enjoyed catching fish. I think she's hooked.

Thanks Mark! She was a little scared at first, but she got over that pretty quick!
