Dooooooodddeeee!!! Call the Doctor because catching a flattie on a swimbait is sick! I could ramble forever about the HUGE difference between catching a flattie on a swimbait vs a channel but it's similar to catching some dinky pike vs a 40 inch Muskie. Those flatties are apex predators and plenty hard to catch with live bait let alone a swimbait! I dig your swing too man. Got to give credit where it's due and it's clear you've been working on it with that Matt Peters footwork (especially on the first one), focusing and practicing my footwork during the swing has helped my hook up ratio tremendously and is something that doesn't get covered nearly enough. Awesome Awesome video man. I could tell you weren't nearly as stoked about catching a flattie as I would have been but that is seriously an accomplishment to be proud of! Now you need to aim for a 60+ flathead in your next video and show us what that LDC can do when really put to the test. I'm really glad I subscribed a few weeks ago and got to see this!
Thanks man haha that big flathead was definitely something else to catch, love just how strong they can be! Thanks for following along, hopefully I can get that 60lber one day!
crazybassfisher this next spring one of the things I wanted to do was target a flattie and catch it on a swimbait while actually trying to. Not as an accident while bass fishing. So I was extra stoked to see you catch one. Those fish are no dummies and are challenging even for people who only fish for flatties. Were you using a scent like bass dynasty or pro cure on the shad by chance? Have you had any other odd species caught down there in AZ while swimbaiting? I think my strangest here in Iowa was a very angry bowfin. Might be a fun idea for a video to do a compilation of by catches caught on swimbaits. Again super awesome video man. I never ever comment on videos but I was seriously impressed on a handful of points in yours. I can tell you've spent a lot of time practicing your swing and it really shows. Keep up the awesome content!
Great to see you back bro. Even if you don’t catch fish on your outings, we are still here to watch your videos when you post them. It’s good to see the trials and tribulations that you put in on the water and sometimes your expectations have to be a little low when dealing with swim baits. Don’t get me wrong, of course we always have to stay confident throwing them but keep in the back of your mind that you might have a skunk day. Great video bro. Have a great Christmas. 👍👍🎅🏻🎅🏻
great video! super excited for the new season to start throwing my battle shads, the video info that is here is GOLD! DEFINITELY need some more of these types of videos! maybe next video/bait highlighting the Deps 250 Slide Swimmer! either way man awesome video and content!
I keep looking for Battle Shad and cannot find anything can you post to where I can buy em thanks. I'm a newbie to big baits and swimbaits. I'm hoping to do a lot of landlocked striper in California. Ya think it can do well? Love the vid.....Thanks for taking the time.
That’s the best time to fish! Maybe not with big baits. But they are crushing fish when the water gets cold and they are chasing huge bait balls. Those are the days you can catch 100 bass if you know how to fish offshore.
Need some help dialing in my brake pattern on my Calcutta Conquest. I keep backlashing when I throw the Battles Shad 9.0 & the Citizen 7. Anybody have this real and what are your brake settings. The BS is 5.20oz and the CTZ is 2.90oz. I'll take any advice you can give me. Thanks.
Catfish or not that was fight you will remember till you die. Shit like that is why we fish. Adrenaline dumps like that cant be forgotten. Keep grind'n
As soon as I get my baits I take out the eyes and superglue them hardly ever fall out then Great Info gonna take a trip one day with manny Cheers!! :))
Any place that big bass will have an easy time eating your bait, so around any style of ambush spots like rock piles, docks, grass, trees, etc etc so understanding where your fish like to relate to is a great start to finding the best places to catch big fish!
Literally think I only disliked this video because your that black
Its ok man, I would dislike the video for the same reason as well, makes a lot of sense to me.
You are a f****** idiot
Dude you're an idiot..

Awsome of him to share that info nice cats bro that was bad ass
Your back!! Heck yeah
That’s the best time to fish! Maybe not with big baits. But they are crushing fish when the water gets cold and they are chasing huge bait balls. Those are the days you can catch 100 bass if you know how to fish offshore.
Hey man,you ever heard of Aleka outdoors swimbait rod?
💯💪👊LET'S GO!!! Stay on top and keep up the GRIND💯
That thing looks awesome!! Cool video, I subbed
I’m glad you mad this video I been want one of these for a min.

Looking like Tyler in the Snap or IG clip with the Flathead

Hey have a deps 175 was wondering how warm the water has to be for me to catch fish on it this spring
You can catch fish on it in cold water as well. Swimbaits are all year long fish catchers.
Catfish or not that was fight you will remember till you die. Shit like that is why we fish. Adrenaline dumps like that cant be forgotten. Keep grind'n
couldn't have said it better! any fish the rips drag or just fights hard is one of the things we as fishermen live for!!
As soon as I get my baits I take out the eyes and superglue them hardly ever fall out then Great Info gonna take a trip one day with manny Cheers!! :))
Lol. Had the same thing happen to me, thought I had a monster bass but instead it was a 20lb cat!
I lost that rod 3 years ago. Can I get it back
Just cop me 2 of those 7.5 Battle shad and of course I re visited to this video:)
Where are the best spots to throw swimbaits and glide baits
Any place that big bass will have an easy time eating your bait, so around any style of ambush spots like rock piles, docks, grass, trees, etc etc so understanding where your fish like to relate to is a great start to finding the best places to catch big fish!
Love your videos
Good info my man
Canyon lake? Canyon lake Texas?
I wish. No this is canyon lake arizona between sagauro and roosevelt lake. It holds the arizona state record in LMB.
