    Tim and Matt are the best on TH-cam. They should have 360 MILLION subs.

    There's people that fish, and there's people that fish like it's a sport. Matt makes it look so easy. Swift, efficient, and confident casts. Follows through to the side of the boat. Quickly changes rods for a 2nd chance. It's like the fastest you'll see someone work but not actually really move around lot.

      Correction the best bass fisherman on the planet are matt allen and tim little together! Not just the internet!! You got a finesse fisherman and a power fisherman teamed up both with a lifetime of knowledge . In my opinion those two together are the best combo on the planet sny body of water any time of year any condition they will have the biggest bag on the lake 90% of the time

      They're an excellent 1-2 punch. On the days they just don't seem to be on the frog like you'd expect... that's your buzzbait day.

    Man, my great aunt had a house with an amazing covered deck on the water on Clear Lake when I was a kid. I used to never care about fishing from it and just wanted to go in the boat. The house is no longer in the family and now I wish I could go there and fish it daily.

    Love the Video Matt! I have learned so much from your channel. Can you recommend a few budget setups rod&reel that I can use for frogging and punching? I will eventually get a dedicated Punching setup, but want to just dabble with it for now - would a frog rod work? I am in Canada so we don't get all the variety you do in the U.S. that is why I ask for a few suggestions.
    Since it is summer I assume that you will be doing another Punching video soon :-)

      @@tacticalbassin awesome. One more dumb question from a noob. What not? And what's a good trick to walking it? From a kayak... Sitting down? I can't stand in mine. It's small. So really 2 questions. 😂👍 Thanks

    Matt have you guys tried the new scum frog, I think it’s called the launcher. I’ve heard from other you tubers it’s really good.

      We havent had the chance to try it yet. We've spent the summer far from frog fish until this last week.

  • @henryadams6515
    @henryadams6515 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    So how close does the grass need to get to the surface before you’d use a frog?

    • @tacticalbassin
      @tacticalbassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It really doesn't. They'll come up and eat a frog in completely open water. Its a different look than what they're used to seeing in pressured open water fisheries. 👍

    I am new to bass fishing I thought you were supposed to target sticks and shadows. I was wondering why you were pretty far from the shore is there a reason?

    • @tacticalbassin
      @tacticalbassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes there is a reason. These fish are in offshore grass. Search "tacticalbassin where do bass go in summer" and you'll find a couple videos that will completely open your eyes on what we're doing and why 👍

    If you had to choose a shakyhead spinning setup no matter the price range what would you choose?

    • @tacticalbassin
      @tacticalbassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My absolute favorite spinning rod for a shaky head is my GLX 852S. I assume the NRX would be one step nicer but I wouldn't vouch for it until I've put real time into the model and I've only fished the NRX in the 852 casting version. Here is the GLX... bit.ly/2A6HH3O

    Just got to say you guys are terrible influences. I go out and buy a ton of baits inspired by you two guys, and it never fails you show me more baits I need to buy LOL. Did y'all catch any big ones on Lake Chickamauga with the little Allen bully wa?

    • @tacticalbassin
      @tacticalbassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ha! Sorry! We didn't get any monsters on it at Chick. They were really keyed in on the smaller baitfish last time we were there and the smaller frogs seemed to make a big difference. Give us a little time, that answer will change 😃

    So I’m new to the frog wagon and so far I’ve had excellent luck but I seem to only get bites very early and right at dark. As soon as the sun comes up the frog bite stops for me. Do I need to continue trying to throw top water even later into the morning?

    • @tacticalbassin
      @tacticalbassin  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would certainly explore the midday options. Sometimes the bite will shut down after the morning feeding frenzy then pick up again a few hours later and last throughout the middle of the day.
