Hey fellow fishing freaks! This video is the extra long educational version of the deep water structure fishing montage. Click the link to check it out!
• Bass Fishing Offshore ...
I'm hoping that this will answer some of the questions you guys have had about finding and catching bass on offshore structure. There are lots of ways to catch them, but here I show a few of my favorite techniques that I have caught fish on at a variety of lakes. If you have a big high dollar graph or a small cheapo, learning what fish look like on your electronics is critical for knowing if you are in the right place to catch fish.
If you are having trouble understanding what you are staring at on your graph, I recommend taking a day and studying your graph, and stopping to fish when you think you see some good cover, structure, of fish. That is the best way to learn how to translate what is on the graph to what you feel underwater. - กีฬา
Bring back the oldies!!!! Crackin big ones, showing techniques. No challenges, no show business. Just straight fishing the moment.
Watching this in 2020 my guy. Dude you’ve been a 🐐 salute to you dude and I definitely caught that solo at the end😂
Your deep water videos really help me out. offshore is my weak point and i can use all the help i can get.
I actually do use the same rod a lot of times for both. I really like the Dobyns 784 extreme, I can really cast a long ways with the c rig and the flutter spoon with those and it is easier to take up more line on the hook sets with the longer rod
Great video and very informative. That last bass with the hook coming out of it is proof that catch & release works and that sometimes it is better to cut the line on a gut-hooked bass rather than to try to wrench the hook out and tear up its stomach. As long as the hook has no stainless steel weed guard (and no SS in the hook itself), the bass has a very high probability of being able to pass or digest the hook. In those cases, cut the line as close to the hook as you can without injuring the bass further, and throw him back. It can be his best shot at surviving a gut-hook situation-- and that bass was proof. He lived to be caught and released again!
I'm letting out line to let the lure drop more straight down rather than swing in towards me on that long cast.
Those fish can be tough to catch, but I like to use a 5" or 6" flutter spoon, a Storm Wildeye swimbait, a 3/4 or 1oz white jig, or an A Rig. If they are sticking to one spot on a hump or offshore point and there isn't much bait around I will also get right on top of them and drop a drop shot down to where I see them and shake it in front of them.
I wish you still did videos like this.
That's a good place to start looking for deeper fish but it's not the magic depth by any means. I have caught bass out to 45-50 foot before. It just depends on where the oxygen levels and the baitfish and hanging out. It could be as shallow as 10-15. I like to look at my graph for signs of life, if you look closely you will find groups of plankton and baitfish in certain depths
I live here on lake marion in santee sc and have guys coming by fishing near my dock everyday... catching very little... I tell them that 95 percent of the fish are behind them... but that just shake their head... because they dont know what to do..... they should watch this video... its a great one... keep them coming.
Best video I've seen on the use of the electronics,deepwater fishing and just over all personality of this angler. Thanks. I Liked and subscribing...
I like how your using different baits in the same spot. Looks pretty windy to. Curious what water temps and clarity are. i would like to see more video on the spoon. Never had any luck with those.
Good job! You really seem to be having a great time.
Congrats and thanks for watching!
just got an ascend kayak, and went to a local lake where the water is only 4 to 5 feet in the deepest spot. weeds and alge grow to the surface of the water all around the lake and the edges of the lake are lily pads. caught a 6 pounder here. My next trip will be in deeper water and your videos have given me some very good tips. great vids and awesome fishing!
Yes, pretty much the same as a crig rod. I like to use something over 7'6" foot with a fast tip and medium heavy action. Dobyns Extreme 784 what i use most of the time
I like at least a 7 foot med/heavy rod, my choice is a Dobyns 784 champion extreme for flutter spoons. Then deepinding on water clarity, I will throw 15-20lb copolymer line. I like a little stretch so I won't snatch it away from the fish.
@duckman399 I have, the work pretty well on those deeper schools but it gets hung up a lot around the deep trees
Justin has great touch and a good nose for the fish and setting the hook. It is a joy to watch this young man kick bass.
I really appreciate your videos. Educational and entertaining!
Going back in the old vids for some knowledge thanks for all you do buddy hope you guys are staying safe with all this mess going on in the world.
I do like to use flukes in deep water, one of my first experiences of catching lots of bass off one deep spot was with a C rig fluke. A later found a bait called the Magic Shad by Lake Fork Trophy lures that has a different fall than a fluke. It's great in the post spawn
LOL, yes. I work in outdoor TV as well, love the job!
Looks easy when you have electronics with screens that big. :P - Great video!!
You really should have you own fishing show on TV. Maybe you and the G-man. I would really like to see you come down here to south Louisiana and get into some trout and redfish action! Keep up the nice work!
On the big 4"+ spoons I like a rod that is a little longer than 7'. My favorite rod is a 7'8" rod made by Dobyns. More distance, easier to cast and work that big spoon and take up the line when they smash it. 15-20lb fluoro
You can either put in right on top of where you see them( this will scare fish off sometimes) or you can put it off to one side. I usually idle past the fish a few boats lengths and then toss it. Just remember the angle you came in at and try to use other visual cues if there are other objects around
One of the most informational videos on bass fishing ever seen. Thankyou
Absolutely just what I needed. I'm learning deep water fishing and this just explained it perfectly. Thanks so much.
Man I have been fishing since I was a youngin and I've never seen anyone fish like you. I'm 14 and you are defensively my role model. I went out to fork 3 weeks ago and caught my pr at 7 pounds on a drop shot. Love the vids, you inspire me so thanks brother. GIGEM DAMMIT!!
great video. deep water is not my comfort zone. hoping this helps me find fish deep this season.
neither is it my "comfort zone" the "pressure" is too much.
You don't have to use a baitcaster to catch fish but they have more leverage and take up line faster than spinner rods as well as hold larger line diameters. For someone starting out, adjust your brakes on your reel to the max setting and practice casting until you get the feel for when to release your thumb off the reel when you cast. For an overhand cast, you should be letting your thumb off about when you reach the 2 olcock position with your rod.
wow, you should do more videos like this, this is the most informative fishing videos Ive seen in a while...
Just got a bass boat, needed some advice on this exact type of fishing. Your videos are great, keep them coming!
This is your best video. Love the content, editing, and use of different cameras. Nice job man.
I watch your channel all the time you are so young in this video but I had to do a search for a deep water fishing and yours was the first one of them thank you Justin
Just listened to hook and arrow pod cast about catching big bass and then 4 year old gem popped on my TH-cam. I too shall now join the share lunker hunt. Just grabbed me some big spoons from tacklewarehouse. Good video. You crack me up
You by far have the best video's on youtube. Information and the delivery are just perfect.
This really helps me!! I have been getting into this off shore fishing kick. Mainly cause I just want to catch bigger fish on Loudoun.. Awesome vid, Thanks again for the info!!!
This has got to be the best video I have found on offshore structure. Would like to see a follow up video on a bit more of the electronics, and how to interpret it. Of course following up with actually catching the fish is what maeks this video so good. Keep up the good work!
you can find fish with any graph, the more expensive ones just make it a little easier. I always tell people that getting to know YOUR electronics is the most important thing. If you know how to read everything on what particular unit you are using, then you are good to go.
Great info, I'm on lay lake and have stared using your techniques and tips. Do more on where to start looking for those humps and ledges, keep it up 👍
I fish at briery creek farmville va. And every cast has the possibility of catching a bass of a lifetime. Also a heavily pressured fishery. Love the info on a brand new style of fishing.going now to try. Thanx 👍👍
oh my gosh man you're hilarious! definitely learned a lot and had a great laugh the whole time. he had a hook coming out of his *bleeeeeep* hahaha. good vid man. I like to watch your old videos when there isn't any new ones i haven't seen.
This video pretty much helped me alot knowledge wise for deep lake fishing. Been out of the game for 8+ years and relearning and learning new things. Also different from Bass Peacock that I was use to in Miami compared to Texas. Thanks for making the videos.
excellent a to z sonar/deep water fishing sir. i wish my trips went as smooth as this!!!
I subscribed because of this video....very very well done...loved that you showed the contour lines of what you were fishing and examples...prolly took a little bit of work to put this video together but worth it....more videos like this please!
good video bud, what mic and video gear are you using?
@jfishhall I will break out the crank if I can reach the cover like some gravel or brush piles less than 20'
Thx brother you definitely opened my eyed to alot of info i needed. Never used a flutter spoon but im goin to losd up on them asap
Flutter down to the bottom.....lol! Love this channel Justin!
Love your videos. Great information. Always learn something new. Thanks
hahaha, I like your little one liners when you hook a fish. "he did it, he went and hit that jig".
That is awesome, thank you and GIG EM!
@tracyclark002 I just drag it until I hit some cover and then shake it or hop it like a craw. Ring fry on the c rig
Amazing video I’m learning and can’t wait use these techniques!
Great info brother . Been watching you for years love these type videos
Wow, nice fishin'. You really found a good spot there. Thanks for the tips :)
right on man
Really cool video, thanks for sharing. Very informative!
@stevennieto91 I normally use fluoro on the spoons but if I used braid, I would probably use 20-30 lb no leader
I wish you would do more teaching videos like this one. DO MORE OF THIS IN 2018 PLEASE!!!
Thanks man love this video! Going to use this Saturday!
Good video and good job on the different baits in deep water.
Love videos like these please do more! I would like to suggest to show all your equipment including rod and lures! I'm new to fishing so I have no idea what you say when you talk about other stuff
Good job, another good Video. Thanks Justin !
Excellent, excellent video! Thanks for the info. Hope to see more.
I learned lots man! Thanks
I will use these tactics when I get out on the water :)
That backlash tactic is deadly. Works everytime!
I love how did you are in this video is awesome I'm learning deep water fishing and I've come across a few schools but you are definitely in a good one I love it have a great one you did an awesome job explain things man thanks so much for the video keep up the good work love it
Great video man. Planning a trip to Fork next year for my annual fishing trip.
Nice video. Lots of good tips!
You are a master of your craft. I have learned allot from your vids! Thank you!
@DAMITBANDIT The 5". I typically stick to the 4 and 5
awesome video learned plenty. I usually stick to top water after watching this I'm got to try deepper waters. thanks
great video. I fish a a lake that is generally regarded as a shallow water lake, but i am going to take these tactics to the water and see what happens!
Its easy to watch all 20 minutes of this. Good shit haha
Love your enthusiasm. Gonna try the flutterspoon and do some deep bassin'
Just made it up, I tend to do that when I'm fishing sometimes
Thank you!
Great vid. I just recently bought a new Elite 7 TI2 and hoping to get into the deep water structure fishing.
man your awesome this vid is really helpful for someone like me just starting this off shore game!
fun video! all 20 minutes.. thanks! I'm just learning to hunt bass, and in deeper waters up here in the NW... subbed.. :)
this video is way more helpful then most other deep fishing vids ive seen
@MamasBoy930 Lol, dont forget 360 imaging! That's a negative
really learned alot from this video. good job man
Good stuff. Keep the videos coming.
I really enjoyed this vid LFG ! Thank you!
Classic LFG, love it!
I learn about thermocline concept from you. Thats good man.
I really like your videos and I'm really new to fishing. Could you do one where you go through a lot of set ups like Carolina rig, Texas rig, etc.
thanks
Estupendo vídeo, lo he pasado genial viendo las capturas, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos.
Wow what an awesome video! Impressive
There is a weight that attaches to the string to it does not float away
Great fishing bro
keep it up lfg love the old and new !
3/4
Love your content man!
I enjoy you videos and hopefully some day I will be able to catch those deep fish! I'm practicing. BTW, me and some buddies came down to lake fork (from WV) in February this year but none of us did any good.
great video that was awsome im a huge fan
great video, I would like to see more graph reading, different time of year, and different water clarity on your next one. hopefully we will see more to come. as far as releasing of the fish I see no problem, their not gently brought in so no need to gently release they be alright.
Great videos, please do one on tournament prep relative to time of year. Thanks
