The difference between this channel and other bass pro channels is how Brian’s love for fishing radiates out of him in every video
You can really see how passionate he is about doing what he does
It’s incredible
Pro “you can skip it...” me I’ll hit Karen’s pontoon and things escalate from there...
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yup me
😂😂😂
Me I'll skip it off the Karen's boat and into the Karen... Yep
Thanks Mr Latimer,
I'm 60 yrs old and just started Bass fishing this summer. I'm learning a lot watching your videos. I enjoy and appreciate how you explain things! I'm not very good at this yet, but I will be.....
Thanks again!
Where are you from?
Once again you have opened eyes to the right way. I'm sure you hear this all of the time but I have to thank you my dad never took me fishing 🎣 when I was little. I was in 1st. Grade when I started noticing the wonderful world 🌎🌍 of fishing 🎣 I always trying to learn. I actually taught my dad to fish. I just need to say we all appreciate what you bring to our fishing community.
Straight out great advice. Watching you cast with your system and seeing how efficient and effective you are makes this video.
Buzzbait also A LOT more fishable around vegetation obviously.
Whopper Plopper you can pause it, rip it, and if a fish misses you can let it sit then continue the retrieve.
The sounds of both are unique too.
Definitely a place for both in everyones arsenal
I would take trips fishing with my grandfather as a kid and now that I’m grown with my own kids we have been fishing every chance we can get and we love watching and learning new tips and tricks on your channel. Thanks B Lat!
I like them both, but a buzz bait has been my go-to for 20 years. I love to pull them parallel across the front edge (or even through) of grass, pads, cattails, etc. that is dangerous territory for a plopper
Where you been all my life. Love your straightforward explanation of how to use these baits. I’ve been using jigs with grubs for years now with pretty good success. Just bought my first Wopper Plopper and researching how to use it. Hello 👋 from Canada 🇨🇦
I've been waiting forever to get some tips from you on buzzbait fishing!!!! I have learned a lot from you!! Thanks B. LAT!!
Great video! Thanks for the great tips Brian!
Great video, as always. Good education for those of us who share your passion.
Love the passion because of you I decided to go out and fish, I forgot how much I missed it. Used to have pretty decent equipment, 6 kids later walmart works just fine lol. Just the joy of fishing as long as your fishing. God bless brother. Learning a lot from you.
Bass hit a Whopper Plopper like it owes them money...
Awesome video man! Very helpful
I’m behind the curve with you! Thanks for explaining the differences.
What is up my boy b.latt!! I try to be opened minded and listen to other professional bass anglers, I’m not going to mention names but they annoy the crap out of me !! For some reason you come off more authentic and humble/normal. I like the information I get off your videos and that I can actually make it through to the end . Your info and tricks have made me better fisherman my man!! You know how people say Kobe when they are balling or just goofing around !! When I catch something off Of one of your techniques I say b. Latt!! Or look at my boi b. Latt !! Anyway I dig your stuff man thanks!!jbass h.c fisherman!! I know these are old videos but I took me min to find someone I can Stan lol!!
Thanks for this video B. Lat !!!! Great Job!!!
I like the way you present the material. Very informative.
Awesome tips!! Thank you B Lat!
My 2 favorite lures. Black is my favorite buzz bait and the green # 90 is my favorite whopper. Never a boring day of fishing.
Just watched this video, this guy is really good. Absolutely had to subscribe. I look forward to more videos 🎣💪
I love your channel. Thanks for the upload
I cant tell you how much that skippin the buzz down to up helped yo. You a good man and fisherman for that. Thank you
Great quick video brother.
he said 8-3 ratio but the clip of the rod immediately after shows 7-5-1 lol
Oh okay, so I wasn't the only one that noticed that LOL.
I throw my buzzbaits and my whopper ploppers exclusively on a LEWS 6.8:1, so you’re fine there. Also 40# braid to a 15# mono leader and zero issues.
Adapt to your style!
I was gon say
@@matthewhairell1456 I use a 40 lb braidbto 15lb mono. But I have a 6.4 to one ratio and was curious to see if it could keep a buzzbait above water without drowning. A triple bladed buzzbait is a lot better than a double
You can use whatever speed you want for buzzbaits the faster speed just makes it easier, don’t have to reel as fast an kill your hand reeling it all day lol, kind of like a BMX bike vs a mountain bike, yeah you can ride up a big hill with a bmx bike but it’s easier when you can switch gears into low on a mountain bike an ride up it. I use a 7 3 1 speed reel an it’s perfect.
B-Lat you have become my favorite fisherman with the best content. Thanks for the knowledge
Very great information and great detail. I’m a subscriber for sure. Thanks for that info!
I’m a plopper guy generally, but the buzz bait will always be in my go-to box. Buzz bait can go through pine needles and top water cover much better than a plopper
What buzzbait do you use? I want to scoop one up
seedless. You gotta try the 13 fishing motor boat. I use all 3 but the motor boat is completely weedless
@@buddygarner7891 I’m more of a bank fisherman myself.
KIDDING JEEZ
That is probably the biggest drawback for the plopper. If there is debris in the water, it will find it.
Wow, I really enjoyed listening to you and watching!
That plopper intro tho.. just gets you all excited lol
Good information. I subbed. Good explanations and top notch video editing! I might of missed it but I kept waiting for you to mention how the Buzzbait goes through weeds better, where as the plopper has 2 treble hooks and will catch much more green each cast. Worth noting to new fisherman. Good luck out there.
I want that noise a plopper makes as my ringtone.
I've learned alot from your awesome channel. Thank you
Thanks B-Lat.....informative video!!!! 👍🏾
Great Channel!! Love the content. Your a good teacher
Subscribed, You articulate very well good explanation
I'll have to give the plopped a try. You give very good instruction. Hope you and the family a doing well.
Great video !!! It’s taken me a while to get used to the Plopper, I too am a buzzbait fan !!
Great explanations, excellent video. I subscribed
Great video Brian!
Im a whopper plopper guy... but I definitely agree with u about the versatility of the buzzbait. U get to do so much more and put it more places.... great vid Lat!
That cast at 7:00 was nasty 😭
I noticed that. It was amazing!
12:16
I agree, he deserved a bite for that one lol
Brian !! Love it start low finish high !!! It works !!!! Thank you !!! Buzz baits are more fun !!!
Great information I love your channel thank you sir
Great information thanks
Thats a lot of years of info if I were doing it on my own. Thanks for the time travel sir!
Thanks Brian,
Great video as always,
I like the buzz bait when the summer grass is heavy. The whopper plopper works better in open water and should have a swivel on the front in case it does pick up some grass in the prop. The swivel eliminate line twist. Seems like I get more fish to the boat with the buzz bait. Thanks
Whopper seems to get more hits. Buzz bait keeps them on the hook way better.
Just picked up two of the land2sea 90 size today and can't wait to fish them! Also got another buzz bait cause it's fall and gotta have those reaction baits! Solid content, sir!
Great advice!
The WP 190s are great for Muskies. Only problem is that the prop is made out of rubber and I've had a muskie turn one of my ploppers into a zara spook 😁
Walk the plopper? Mojo bass 7'2" med casting! Trust me! Many 35"+ pike and 5#+ small mouths. Huge casts. Berkeley choppo. Berkeley fused crystal!
- Best! 9:1
I use a hypermag 8.3:1 for my senko fishing. Great light reel. Fairly smooth, but not quite as buttery as a curado. But paired with a super light rod, you can senko fish all day and not even notice the rod.
Great information on the Buzzbait I use the whopper plopper for top water fishing got to try the Buzzbait Thanks alot my friend
Put a 6 1/2lb bass in the boat just this morning on my whopper popper 90!
Brian ia knowledgeable and personable. Love his channel.
The popper covers water and catch’s lost of fish but Nothing is better then a buzz bait bite when those big bass hit it hard sounds like an old school cash register and I’m like a kid in the candy store😀.
Great video !
My favorite prop tail lure is the drunken mullet pop tail by Chasebaits in blue or bone color. I have a 4" and a 6". I HIGHLY recommend it, it makes a ton of noise and the Stripped Bass here in northern Lake Mead by Las Vegas, NV drives them crazy! They bite like it's crack!
Great info
12:16. That's the definition of smooth! To easy!
Nice video Bro!! Thanks
Man i am in TN struggling tonlearn these skills your videos are very helpful
i’m more of a plopper guy where i’ve caught double digit largemouth on them but i love buzzbait also caught my first bass over 5 lps on it
Great video Brian! I just watched one of Roland Martin using the same bait...I would like to see you two meet up and fish.
Here lately I've been into the 13 fishing motor boat. It has the benefits of both minus the treble hooks plus its completely weedless.
Hey B lat. I’ve also found that I can throw a buzz bait when there are leaves on the water or grass just touching the top.
Man, I was today years old when I learned what a Whopper Plopper was. gonna have to add it to the tackle box
My very first top water bass was caught with a whopper plopper! It's forever my favorite top water lure now!
My first bass ever was a whopper plopper! I can totally understand lol I started this year
Me too! But for some reason I haven't been able to Landa another anymore.
Thanks for the videos man! I like the Berkley chapo better then the whopper it has a better sounding plop and catches me more fish
I like them both. I fish a lot of over hangs and tree lay downs and find myself going with the buzzbait more. I will also say I live in south Louisiana and fish the marsh a lot and them reds love that whopper plopper
Another great video!
Hey Brian! I will agree with you the hook up ratio is definitely better on a plopper . However lately, seem to be getting more hits on a buzz. That could be because more people are using a plopper. LOL.As far as when do use it over another, I do believe that in more windy/choppy conditions, a buzz bait has an advantage due to more noise factor. God bless!
I hear ya caught my PB small mouth on whopper plopper 90 this summer and caught my PB pike with the buzz bait on trailing hook early September 👍
I also like buzz baits because they tend to do better in weedy areas and that's my high percentage areas for bass
B-lat how does weather factor in to your choice between a plopper or buzzbait? Wind vs. no wind, sunny vs. overcast, etc. Thanks for the awesome content
Love buzz and whopper. I use my plopper a lot. Just hate treble hooks. Sometimes hard to get out of the fish and caught bass by the gills a few times with the rear hook.
Thank you
Hell I’m subscribed now!
The one thing I hate about the buzzbait is you better start reeling as soon as that thing hits the water because if you let it sink,it'll be half way back to the boat before it comes out of the water
Hi Brian, I’m Brandon Vaughn and my son Kolton Vaughn went to school with your son. I’m loving the content keep it up
Man I’ve waited a while for you to touch base on the whopper plopper. I was at a lake and seen a guy with one and I thought it was pretty cool and immediately after leaving the lake went and purchased every single color and size all the 110s 90s and 75s the crazy thing is after spending all that money on them. I have yet to catch a single fish on any of them smh 🤦🏾♂️ not even a bite. But I’ve seen people fishing with them doing well. After watching your video I kinda think what’s wrong and why I’m not catching anything with them. SPEED OF THE REEL.. Appreciate your knowledge man great video👍🏾
Bet that was a expensive mistake
Sure was and never will it happen again funny thing is I still haven’t caught anything off of any of them 😂 but hey there in the tackle box now
@@mikehigh4321 yup can never have to many lures
👍🏾
What’s up Brian? Thanks for sharing. I personally haven’t had any luck with the whopper plopped yet, the buzz bait seems to work better for me. I’ll keep trying the whopper plopper though, they say it catches big bass. Great video, much respect
I've actually caught more fish on the berkley choppo than the plopper. The choppo makes a louder noise and when the bite is slow I slow down my retrieve. Good luck
White 75 plopper is my go to right now in SC. Senko and Whopper Plopper are my top 2 favorite lures.
130 perch color. Me and a buddy were fishing he had the Berkeley chopo I had a plopper I caught 3 times the amount of fish
No need for the police 👮 B.Lat!!! I been subscribed to your channel!! Your one of the realist humble person I have watch I truly appreciate your tips and time to teach us new beginners at fishing 🎣 .... GOD Bless BROTHER!!!
chill bro i subscribed!
Quality info with out all the ridiculous VLOG BS... subscribed
I like this guy...” I don’t want those fish having any say so in getting off my line “ 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Brian, when do you use a bladed or prop top water vs a popper or a walking bait? What conditions force that decision?
Been making buzzer baits since the 80’s. Didn’t know what a whopper plopper was the other day till I was on wish. Tons of knock offs on there. I bought a half dozen of them off eBay for $11 shipped. The reason I bought some is because my dad uses low gear ratio zebco spincasters. They never wind fast enough to get a traditional buzz bait up on plain. Also the cheap, light, line used them snaps when casting heavy buzzers.
Caught my first plopper fish a couple weeks ago but I like the buzz bait
Was thinking about buying a favorite rod earlier. Then the way my checking and savings is set up.....
Might get one when I get more into bass fishing. Just started so dont know if I want to make that dive yet. I've fished crappie and catfish so far. They are alot easier to catch. From what I've been learning Bass take a bit of technique and skill.
Just recently found you and subscribed…..would love to take you fishing speckled trout and redfish in south Louisiana marsh…..I like your style and attitude…..as well as your presentation of information.
I currently loving the berkley choppo 90.
Never tried a whopper plopper before. I’ve ALWAYS had the best luck on an original rapala floater. Everything eats those guys. But imma give the plopper a shot and see what goes down. I love how informative the video is.
I was the same way, then I bought plopper 110 bone color. I've caught, blue gill, red ear, smallmouth, large, catfish, and even a frikin carp!! They will hook on anything!!
Sheeeeeeit I use my 7’ medium heavy fast combos for almost everything. Except frogging I’ll pick up my 7’4” heavy for that noise! Usually stick with a 7’-7’1” medium fast for my lipped and lipless cranks.
Its such a cute sound 🥰🥰😍
Great video 🔥🔥
Great video
Man what I would give to have the opportunity to have hands on lessons with someone like this!
B Lat
Try the 130 size in the whopper plopper smallies love it
Do u ever use a heavy rod for top water lures/frog. Also do u feel like 7,2 is a big difference then 7 foot rods/ accuracy
