One of my favorite memories was catchin a huge 22 or 23 inch bass in a bunch of water Lilly pads that were also overgrown with grass using a Texas- rigged top water frog. It’s so so satisfying when they blow up from cover and completely murder your lure/bait.
I'm trying to learn as much about heavy cover as I can. This video was really great. Very detailed about technique and also exact gear. 😊 THANKS for your Awesome tips.
I just watched 8 other videos ((very well known guys))) Flipping heavy cover no one explained it as good as you thank you so much for making this video it helped me a lot
This is the lure skipping king. I saw that learn how to skip video. And was automatically hooked. I hit the subscribe button quicker then a crack head hitting the pipe 😂😂
@@BassFishingHQ Absolutely, your videos are packed with helpful/useful info. Can’t say that enough and I enjoy & appreciate them and your time to create and share with us!!!
He says, "as you can see we have heavy cover". Proceeds to get out of boat and walk across grass mat, fishing the tiny open spots like ice holes! 🤣 All joking aside, that's thick man!
As a bank angler, do these boat fishing heavy cover tips still apply the same on the bank. It’s totally different from the bank in most situations. What would you do fishing heavy cover from the bank?
Absolutely. Envision things in your mind but shallow to deep, as you're on the bank; pick it apart just the same using the information, and remember to be patient... you can go for a few hours and not get bit, but when you find them it'll be worth it... Heavy cover fishing isn't for everyone but it's the most rewarding ~ Peace
ok so from 5:00 to 9:15pm i went out and was froggin punching, open water, and not a sing bite or blow up. what am i doing wrong, its been damn near 2 weeks since i got a fish. making me want to sell my gear
We all have those days man! Even in this video I only caught 3 small fish that I decided to not even put in the video. Sometimes it really is a matter of spending the time and covering water to find the bass
Another quality informative video. I can usually tell what lake your on, but this video for me stumped.. I'm gonna guess st. Mary's? Is that where your at?
Love the channel. I've only been bass fishing about 4 years but, I always taught you had to hookset hard to turn their and get the bass out of the cover?
That’s what we are all taught growing up. But if you are using a bug weight, over 1oz, you will miss and lose and lot of bass by setting the hook too hard
I use a medium heavy Abu Garcia vendetta spinning rod 6 ft 6 inches, size 4000 reel, 30lb straight braid for my flipping and punching. It isn’t ideal but it gets me by because I use that rod/reel for other things as well. That rod is plenty enough backbone to get out of thick lilly pads and milfoil up in New England where I’m at. Hope that helps
Love the tight, concise editing..very professional..you pack a lot of info into a short presentation.
As a beginner, I love your vids. Super helpful! Keep up the awesome work.
Super happy you like them
Beginner or experienced... one can always learn something if they're open to it... and Dude is legit ~

One of the best vodeos i have seen on WHERE you will find the bass!!
Just stopping in for some quick tips before I go punching tomorrow😎💯
Good content once again, going to fish a lake tomorrow that I neglect because of heavy cover , sad because its only 3 minutes from my house
Well well well…….just stumbled on my new go to for fishing 🎣 👍
Great video!!!!! Gonna keep these tips in mind on upcoming Florida trip
It IS always a good one with you Tyler. Your advice is spot on!! Even here in South Africa. I also follow Mike.
Time for canoe fishing in south africa
@@liammacdonald3665 I like that idea!! Just too freaking cold to sit for a long time in a canoe.
The grass came real early this year up north
Perfect timing. Actually just rigged up to go do some punching tomorrow. Everything is so thick this summer. Love the videos.
Love your video’s man. Thanks for taking the time.
Pretty good tips as always brotha! Appreciate what you do for anglers!

They are really good rods. Love the action

ANOTHER, excellent vid with easy to understand video PACKED with good information. Thank you. 👊🏼

Heavy cover typically means a soft bottom. Lighter weights don't sink into the muck on bottom. I'm imagine bass don't enjoy a mouth full of mud.
But great video bro. U should team up with Kevin vanDam
Good stuff, thanks. Tight lines
Great video and very good advice.
Thanks for watching man
A great Video right on ☺️
Very informative tips on heavy cover, 👍👍👍.

I love the size of that rod.

They are in there!
@@BassFishingHQ yes Sir they are. I like your channel, you come across as one of the kindest fishing personalities on YT.
@@Tbowie13 well I appreciate the kind words and I appreciate you watching! Thank you!
I have tried this so many times. I am not afraid, I just hate it lol
Lol, used to think its the funnest thing, now it just feel like a workout.
@@sherlockbonez I can't stand fishing around grass but I know that's where the fish are at...
Thank you for the informative video, really great
On the lighter weight....is it the actual size of the weight? More of a tungsten questions I guess there

I feel you I haven’t caught a bass in like a week or so I think it’s because of the ponds I fish at
Aesome videos 👍👍👍👍 What brand of sunglasses are those they are real nice? Would like to get me a pair.

Thanx for the knowledge
Of course! Thanks for watching?
Hi Tyler, Are you using PowerPro 50lb Braid line? You didn't talk about the maker. Let us know, Happy New Year & Stay safe
Another quality informative video. I can usually tell what lake your on, but this video for me stumped.. I'm gonna guess st. Mary's? Is that where your at?
I flipped into heavy cover for the first time today w a 3/8 jig. Bass tooky bait andy knot came untied 😢😭
Saw 1 shake before hitting my frog last weekend
top water frogs baby

Can I do braid to a fluoro leader?
what name your boat, can you review that ? thank
Have you fished the ross barnett reservoir in Mississippi
Yes I have
When I hear what rods to use do st croix bass MOJO fit in that category for a jig? This is what I've always used but is it optimal?
U didn’t catch anything in the whole video!!!
Exactly why I’m scared he said don’t be afraid and fish it he ain’t catch fish that I ain’t catching nothing either
Great vid. Are you pegging the weight?
When ruining braid do you tie on a leader or straight braid?
Teknik
I'm assuming this requires a baitcasting reel. I currently only have spinning reels which clearly doesn't handle 65lb braid well lol
I use a medium heavy Abu Garcia vendetta spinning rod 6 ft 6 inches, size 4000 reel, 30lb straight braid for my flipping and punching. It isn’t ideal but it gets me by because I use that rod/reel for other things as well. That rod is plenty enough backbone to get out of thick lilly pads and milfoil up in New England where I’m at.

Did you get skunked
Nah caught 3 Ohio bass. Just didn’t think they were worth putting in the video. People don’t like to see 1.5 pounders lol

Rarely take those pics anymore.
Looks a bit like Indian with all that grass
