Dean Gruwell Congrats you won the Keitech Tackle Pack...please email me with your address. Thanks everyone for the comments and sharing! More contest to come! tspeedm@yahoo.com
Sign of a great video when every time a question pops in my head, you address it within 30 seconds. You're getting pretty good at this whole TH-cam thing haha!
*SET NOTIFICATIONS UP FOR NEW CONTENT ON THIS CHANNEL* Awesome content Travis! Shared on FACEBOOK. More people (especially northern anglers) need to watch this channel! From the breakdown series of videos about his financial side of angling, to the "how to" side of things...Travis isn't holding back people. I've seen him at a few weigh-ins and he is the most genuine guys you'll meet on tour. Probably the most relatable professional angling content out there for smallie guys and gals. HOPE YOU GET TONS MORE EXPOSURE. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO. *Dragging Keitech's for great lakes smallmouth is out of the bag now, you have to try it to believe the results folks* Thanks Travis.
Beegeman down here in Ohio iced in and tying baits. just discovered your channel will share on my facebook and local club. Love me some Keitech swimbaits great advice on how to fish them. keep the tips coming. BJ Barnette
Love the Kietech's.... Crappie, largemouth, smallmouth in our lakes and ponds as well as Striped Bass in the rivers and surf of New England! I cannot count how many schoolie size striped bass I have caught along the south shore of Rhode Island in the fall jigging a smoke/purple flake and rainbow shad 3.8" and 4.8" Fat style Keitech on light tackle..... Shared this via TH-cam as well as personal email Travis! Great video!
Hey Travis, good video on color selections....keepin' it simple. I shared the TH-cam link to your videos with my fishing buddies. Have been subscribed to your channel late last year after watching your video on the boat rescue on the Susky. Like you I can't wait for this winter to end.
Spent the weekend at the Columbus Ohio fishing expo. I thought it would help ease some of the fishing withdrawals. Boy was I wrong! Lol this happens every year and nothing helps. The good thing is. it's starting to warm up and the Ice is finally off! Fish On!
Man I really enjoy your video's very helpful & informative I shared your vid via e-mail. Not many smallies in SC but the spotted bass love those same swim baits! Thanks again for the time you take to help fisherman all around the country God bless you brother!! From South Carolina .
Great video Travis. Kietechs are a big part of my smallmouth arsenal as well. Got my personal best last summer on a 3.8 keitech in AYU color I believe. I sent this video to a bunch of my fishing buddies using Facebook messenger. I sent them all the link to this particular video and told them that I'm a long-time subscriber to your channel because of the quality of the content you provide, specifically the smallmouth content. Thanks for taking the time to put this video together and I look forward to Future content. Nick
I love the easy shiner that's squid scent is lethal. I have honestly never thought to fish these on a football head. Def. trying that in the spring. Great tip man
Another great video Travis, keep them coming. Was trying to get to the show to see your seminars but couldn't make it happen. Shared the video on instagram. Ray
Shared to my Facebook page! I used the Easy Shiner for the first time last year and really enjoyed them. Had some great success on both smallies and walleye. Fish hit a Paddletail with serious authority! I used the smallmouth magic and Ayu. Anything with blue flake in it slays for me! I'll have to try the Impact Fats too. That black has me interested...
Shared on Facebook, appreciate the content & insights. It was great meeting you today @outdoor show & the seminar was excellent with some nuggets I'll be sure to apply in pursuing smallmouths this season!
Awesome video Travis! Don’t have any social media but I’m always showing my buddies your videos! Just sent them all this video in our group chat hopefully that counts! Lol
Love the video. Agreed with below comment(s), please share color, techniques for LMBs or spots using swimbaits. What a haul! I could never get that much in the mail ... it would break the bank. Keep the videos coming. :)
Hey I shared it on Facebook with my other email account and I hope it counts. On a side note, I also with you that the Goby color works. I was thinking about picking it recently too. It really reminds me of Wisconsin. I also live in NY, but am originally from WI and I simply love the fishing in WI.
Shared on Twitter and Facebook I just started using swimbaits on swinging football heads last fall dragging certain areas around Door County, WI with my kayak. I drag either by drifting or going about a half mile per hour by paddling slowly if there is no wind/current to push me. It works and I plan to do more of it this year. Prior to that I had been mostly been dragging a Ned rig. I will see how it goes next year, but the swinging football jig and swimbait combo may just replace the Ned as my favorite bait. Time will tell.
I love Keitechs use them all the time. Met you at the expo last weekend and I lost my voice that's why I didn't talk much. I just wanted to say hi before I left. I hope I win the trip with you but I'm gonna book one anyway in the future.
I shared your videos on facebook. I enjoy your content. I live in Vegas and fish lake mead every saturday, crystal clear lake, I always have a swimbait tied on.
Sharing to my Instagram! Love your stuff man! Just discovered your channel so i spend these crappy winter days watching all your old videos. I’m in Wisconsin about 2 hours north of green bay so it’s cool to see you on the bay!
Man I would sure like those Keitech baits. I will make it a point to put Smallmouth Crush on TH-cam in conversation with people I talk around the lake. Thanks Travis
hey man I shared it to my facebook and twitter and great video love all the info and smallmouth bass are my favorite fish to catch so always looking for the best ways to catch them. where you talking about beign in harrisonburg VA or somehwere else?
Hey, Travis, great video. I expect to try some Keitech swimbaits so it's good that I got to see this. It is interesting that black works so well but perhaps it's like you said, it resembles a silouhette. I would also surmise that these combinations would be good for largemouths as well.
Hey Crush: For smallies, I switched from 3.8" Keitech to 3.8" Jackall RhythmWave Swimbaits and my success rate went way up. I've experimented with four of the RhythmWave colors so far and been happy with all four. If I had to pick only one, it would be RhythmWave "holo black". You're right; that black silhouette gets possibly the best reaction. I fish mostly in darker water (Ottawa River). Since black works so well for you in clear and for me in dark, maybe we should just stop buying the other colors and really simplify. But what's the fun in that, right? (shared by email)
Shared via text(sorry dont do social media). You said it brother getting thru the winter the spring prep and the little ice fishing I do keeps me semi sane
I want to say i'm really liking your videos! I'm also want to ask for some advice about fishing the lower Suquahana upper bay. This coming up season will be my first tournament season fishing from a kayak and fishing for smallmouth bass. My first tournament will be launching from Perryville Community Park and fishing Furnace Bay area. I would appreciate anything you could share with me.
Typically grass fishing in furnace bay. Chatterbaits and finesse plastics. Texas Rigged baits draggin around grass will be the key. Depending on time of year also could be a good frog bite in there.
Shared on Facebook, also wanted to ask when you travel do you ever any trips where we can fish with you? I’ll never get up to the east coast but if your closer down south I’d like to fish with you on a guided trip.
Shared on Facebook. Very informative video. You mentioned being from Wisconsin. Where in Wisconsin are you from. I'm half way between Madison and Milwaukee.
Enjoyed the content for the most part. At the same time it's a little tough to take seeing you (or anyone) opening large boxes full of free baits while the rest of us scratch to update our tackle boxes before and during the season.
My favorite keitech colors *not popular opinion are super shad/bluegill (not flash)/ sight green hologram/alewife. And with a weightless 4 inch easy shiner they get inhaled
Hey Travis! Keitechs are great baits! Shared this vid on facebook! What is your fave color for Lake Champlain? You fished with my buddy Phil Wade on the Costa last year and he has shared some of your knowledge with me. Good luck to the soon to be 2019 season! What rod do you throw the 2.8 on?
Dean Gruwell Congrats you won the Keitech Tackle Pack...please email me with your address. Thanks everyone for the comments and sharing! More contest to come! tspeedm@yahoo.com
Hey everyone! Make sure to watch this video till the end! I have a bunch of Keitech Baits I will be giving away, find out how at the end of the video!
Sign of a great video when every time a question pops in my head, you address it within 30 seconds. You're getting pretty good at this whole TH-cam thing haha!
Glad you liked it Trey

Shared to Facebook. My favorite color on Champlain last year was Smallmouth magic. Put almost my whole bag from the BFLs on that bait.
I love Keitechs use them all the time. Met you at the expo last weekend and I lost my voice that's why I didn't talk much. I just wanted to say hi before I left. I hope I win the trip with you but I'm gonna book one anyway in the future.

I just subscribed and telling my friends. I'll bet Steve would love those baits.
Great Video Shared on Facebook.
Shared with all my fishing buds on Instagram and text, Goby and black would kill it on Lady Ontario!
Sure does!
Love the 3.8s, use them as a SB trailer and that got me to the All American on the Flats about 5 yrs ago. Hope to draw you next BFL season.
Great info, shared on fb! Up here on Champlain so always some specific info for me in your videos. Keep them coming.
Thank you for shareing yoursecrets.I shared it with my brother and liked ir From Ohio

Hey, Travis, great video. I expect to try some Keitech swimbaits so it's good that I got to see this. It is interesting that black works so well but perhaps it's like you said, it resembles a silouhette. I would also surmise that these combinations would be good for largemouths as well.
Love fat keitechs just hard to keep them in one piece with all the pike. I always need more. Shared on Facebook
Shared on Instagram...Cant go wrong with Keitechs for Michigan smallies
Thanks Travis great video
Shared! Great video.
Hello sir
What would you recommend for a winter fishing glove from bank ?
Thanks

Love see that vid drop shot for LM
Enjoyed the content for the most part. At the same time it's a little tough to take seeing you (or anyone) opening large boxes full of free baits while the rest of us scratch to update our tackle boxes before and during the season.
I wish I got them for free!
Hi just wondering what size hook do you use for the 3.8 and 3/3 keitech swing impact fat ? I'm not sure between a 3.0 and 4.0 thank you.

Like, shared, subscribed. Thanks man!
Also a big fan of rigging them upside down on chatterbaits. Slow role them and rip it outta grass. Shared on Facebook.
Shared, bring on the warm weather !

When you do your dropshot video for largemouth;; be sure to tell us about your rod and line type and poundage.
Will do!
