@@Mycovers7you want a heavy to Xtra heavy rod depending on the cover, a 8:1 reel so you can allow slack to walk your frog but can catch up to the fish when it hits. Always use braid so there is 0 stretch and it floats which does help a little. Make sure to give a small pause after a bite so they fish can suck the frog in and you won’t pull the frog out of its mouth. I call it a breath pause, you have to train yourself to do it bc we like to jerk right away. 😂. Hope that helps ya JJ
@@Mycovers7I use a Medium Heavy Rod that’s stiff with a 7:4 gear bait cast reel (I use the SLX). Put on 40-50lb braid. I live in the north so I use 40 but down south, you might need 50 or even 60lb braid Once the fish eats it, pause for a few seconds then set the hook
Live bait is the way to go if youre fishing in lakes/ponds that are always crowded with other fishermen. I caught an 8 pounder in under 30 mins once using bluegills I pulled from my bass and bluegill pond.
If you will cut the top spikey fins off the brim/bluegills it makes it way easier for bass or catfish to eat them. Just twke some scissors and trim them off flush, and it doesnt kill the brim when you do it
Man I found a minkotta older one,at a yard sale with battery for $35. Something like that would be perfect for the front of that boat if you get tired of the paddling, just a suggestion I love your content
Look, how calm the second fish was when he weighed it on the scale. The ones I catch would never keep still, they’re not that big either though (my fish).
Nice video Adam, really enjoyed it!! Watching it reminded me of your jon boat to bass boat conversion video. How long ago was that and is this the same boat?
To me fishing for bass with live bait is almost like cheating. I see it as the only reason you fish for bass with live bait is be cause you don't know how to fish for them with artificial. Why do you think bass tournaments do not allow using live bait.
You know this one finna be a heater😎🔥
What type of rod do you use for frogging?

Live bait is my GO TO! If my day is slow out on the water ill always use bluegill or any other small or medium panfish to catch them monster bass! 🤘🏼
That’s how you battle in the bushes!! Lol, that was awesome bro👊🏼
Great day of fishing enjoyed the video 👍👍
Thanks for the video enjoyed !
Will have to check more out .
Nice Adam 🤙🏼🤙🏼
This was super helpful. At my home lake, I found a good spot to catch bait fish, so I can’t wait to give this a try
Lets go. This is gonna be a good one right here. 👊🎣

I'll have to try that! 🎣
Let’s go! Need to have you up to do a live bait at my pond. I have bigs bass and giant catfish so it is blast! Fun one Adam
Such an entertaining video! Loved it! Thanks for all the great content!
You couldn't pay me to go out in a john boat without a anchor lol! Great video bro! Makes me wanna go out and fish like I use to with my paw paw!
Thas right!
You should!!! I feel like my papa is right there every time I catch one!!
Cool catch on the spinning reel 😂
awsome video quick tip tho cut the buligils spike y fins off it doesnt hurn the bule gil but the bass like i a lot more
I use corn instead of worm to catch bluegill. It's a whole lot cleaner.
I will try that. I’ve been using bread dough balls
I know I’m watching this late but this a banger

Great video, really enjoyed it, keep it up.
Are you using braid for your big fish rod? If so, what pound test line.
I was using 20lb fluorocarbon!
Look, how calm the second fish was when he weighed it on the scale. The ones I catch would never keep still, they’re not that big either though (my fish).
Littlest ones always aggressive lol 4+ pounders Atleast the ones I’ve caught have been calm
I want this so bad. But EVERY SINGLE TIME i take worms out to catch bait the turtles think is a buffet
Looks like the fish caught him!
Looks like fun!
Can we get a big swim bait vid in that same pond
Good job . Can you tell me please the set up. Rod ,line ,hooks to catch big bass with live bait .
Ok so it makes me so mad that these bass are so chill for them but when I go out myself the spaz out like people on the grimace birthday shake
Gotta see more live bait vids
Love em
Where are these fishing spots & are you fishing in Illinois???
I have access to tons of bluegill but can’t get on a bass. Maybe too many bluegill ?
I caught my PB bass on a wocky rig worm it was like 8 pounds
That’s awesome!
Nice video Adam, really enjoyed it!! Watching it reminded me of your jon boat to bass boat conversion video. How long ago was that and is this the same boat?
I watch sone fish for bass snd land big bass on and 2 pound test line.Libe 5 or6 pounders on and 2 pound test line.
Caught a 12 pounder yesterday
Thats awesome!
Man that Mach1 looks so nice gotta love lews but man is MachNation stuff pricey 😅
what line do you use?
on your spinning reel for bluegill
❤️🔥❤️🔥
The way he said crapie and not crappie at the start
Why do you put your worms on like that, if they’re restricted wouldn’t it attract less fish?
Do bass like to eat the female bluegills or make bluegills? Just a curious question
Do a lake video
Please .. what lb test? Rod and reel info? Lastly how many pole can you have in the water? What city/state?
1
Jesus loves you all
first??
wrong i was first
You wanna catch big ones, stop throwing back the big baits.
You cute 🤨
Anchor schmanker
As a person who has a gf I’m am still ugly but great at fishing

So creative with this take lol people are aloud to have fun. Cut the wanna be tournament angler shit and catch some fish
Do u keep your bale open when casting out so the fish takes line ?or no
