    I also use the 6lb test with a Texas rigged finesse. Bank fishing under bridges usually gets me 1-2 bass in a quick 30 minute fishing session. That's all I have time for these days.

    I don’t know how anybody can give this a thumbs down, if anybody knows anything about fishing is that catching a fish is not exactly why you’re there but yet it is, but it’s also about being on the water and trying to catch fish while enjoying yourself at the same time! It’s about spending time with yourself or somebody else that you enjoy spending time with like your wife or your dad or just a good friend and having fun, that’s what fishing is all about! The rest is obvious! Fishing is an incredible break from the pressures of life!

    @toddwinegar7365 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I got excited for you on that large jaw, i also would have sworn it was a smallmouth btw it fought! you are a beast sir. and remember there aint nothing like these smallmouth we have in the Tennessee river system, in my opinion that is. great video sir thank you, im sitting here watching this in mid february 2020 and it helped me make it through today, and now im one day closer to getting back on the river and hooking up with a bronze back gorilla myself, can not wait.

    Thanks, Richard! I'll have to put these tips to use. I've been fishing a river -- and I'll keep going back because it's gorgeous! -- where the bite is really slow. I certainly hope this makes it more interesting, where fishing for more than perch is concerned!

    I think public waters being more pressured it’s best to use finesse baits......those fish see a lot of baits......I know when I decided to downsize I actually caught more big fish besides the numbers increasing.

    • @63Bare
      @63Bare 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They're fishing for money, not for fun. Less fight from the fish means less chance of the fish getting off the hook, entry fees are expensive. I guess it's fun if you win though.
