These recap videos are some of my favorites that you do, especially if you're flipping. I've learned so much from watching your form and how you go about it and it really helps me when I'm pitching hydrilla in my own local waters.
Loved the video. I appreciate all the videos that you make. The videos where you show how you are targeting cover or working certain baits helps me the most. The way you were pitching to the Lilly pads and just moving, helps me think about being more efficient while cover water
Raid makes an interesting soft bait with something they call "Fish Skin"(ordered some from AZ yesterday so will be a week or so to receive them). Looking forward to connecting it with a TUSH. Have you seen that bait in use?
I fished Monday and Tuesday on the lower river and the upper river on Thursday. The bite has been good. 😊 I hate that you dropped out of the top 50. I'm sure you agree. You just have to catch them at the next tournament. I'm sure you will.
@@MattStefanFishing got some on the way !!! I hope you are getting a cut cause it’s cause of you i started buying Berkley , and dang I can’t believe I went fishing so long without them

@@MattStefanFishing looks pretty good! I've always liked raw carbon fiber's look
What weight you flippin in the pads
3/4 oz
Glad to see you covering the skin more. It keeps you away from the Doctor. Wish I had known what we now know, some fifty years ago.

Damn that last one looked like a chunk, gg

i caught several on a hover rig on the outside of milfoil lines
You better start practicing on not letting the fish hit the deck it'll be a 2 min. penalty next year.👍👍👍👍👍
