  • On this kayak fishing trip, I did some ultralight fishing with gulp minnows for bluegill to use for catfish bait. I ended up catching some big bluegill and then got lucky when I was able to land a gar. It was fun trip.

    Thanks for your hospitality on this early Saturday morning trip. Your enthusiasm over the gar is a bonus! I believe that your idea of creating one-of-a-kind memorabilia for your avid fans is an idea that will stick to the wall. In fact, I suggest that you mount some of these items on suitable-size plaques to hang on a wall and attach a small brass plate with the name of the video and its date for reference. I'm not a techie, but I wonder if it's also possible to include a poignant screen-capture from the video to show how the item played a special part in the video. Good luck with that project. As with others of your successful ventures and adventures, it is especially likely to pan out well because you welcome the collaboration of others and accept help to upgrade the experience according to your initial vision. Your heart is leading you in the best possible direction as you share the joy.

  • @dirtysoutherngaming6374
    @dirtysoutherngaming6374 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    With the gar, let them grab it then open your bail. Let them run and when they stop they will start working the bait to the base of their mouth. Then when they run again then set the hook

  • @fishing_with_TR

  • @chuckjohnson4048
    @chuckjohnson4048 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you wrapped your hook shank with thread, super glued it to the shank and then super glued the Gulp bait to the shank it may last even longer.

    Hey, those bluegills taste great to people too. Not just kittyfish. Lol. Kinda new to your channel but I've been putting in work to catch up on it. I'm putting in an open invitation to you if you ever come to central Indiana. White river is within 5 minutes of my house and I just bought my 1st kayak at the beginning of spring. If you ever pass through here, I'll be ready for your lessons.
    Love the channel. Keep doing what you're doing.

    I like to use Gulp baits on jigs, too. I have found that if I wrap the length of the shaft of the hook once or twice with dental floss and then coat it with super glue, the Gulp stays on much better. It is harder to put on because you have to slide it over the floss, but that is what makes it stay on better. Also seems to make the Gulp last longer because it isn't getting pulled off the shaft all the time.

    I can picture it now... 40 years from now at a charity auction a Justin Johnson jig head sells for big $🤩 I too have a artifact a #4 octopus that was baited with half a crawler that hooked me a 40lb Flathead. Sadly my hook is only valuable to me...🤔
