I have been asked several times now about bank fishing at Canyon lake and I have always told people that they should be able to catch fish from the bank here, but I have never tried it myself. I've always had my kayak with me, so I decided to do an episode of bank fishing for those who have asked about it. It was a super fun trip! The Bass were up in the shallows feeding on the shad and that helped us have a really good time. This episode is a good watch! Hope You Enjoy and as always, remember to GET OUT AND LIVE!

I'm Jake and ever since I was a tiny kid I have been OBSESSED with fishing. The Goal of this channel is to take you along on my fishing adventures both good and bad and inspire you to "GET OUT AND LIVE ", Which is what the G-O-A-L Fishing stands for. Being outdoors and pursuing fish, however that looks, has always been fulfilling and life giving to me and I hope to share a little of that with you.

Canyon is without a doubt my favorite lake in AZ and maybe on earth. been there hundreds of times to swim and boat and hike and hangout- now im going to bank fish for bass!
Rule 1) Check line before leaving home
Rule 2) Check drag before casting
Great video man. I am more of a trout fisherman than bass but after watching this, I will have to get into it. Thank you
Thank you for doing this video. I feel like myself and many others are restricted to bank fishing so find this is more helpful than from a kayak.
Sparrow415 to BKK thank you! I’m glad it was helpful!
The fishing permit you mentioned for that Recreation Area is it the one for Tonto National Forest?
Sparrow415 to BKK Yes. It’s the Tonto Recreation pass.
Favorite AZ fishing channel. Keep it up and G-O-A-L !
Jeff Bradburn thanks a ton! That means a lot!
Get out and live.. love that message! Cool video!
SaltyFreshFL thanks! I truly appreciate it!
Great video! Very motivational. 🙏🏻
Justin Griffith thanks man!
Great video, thanks so much.i. going to give canyon a try this week
Bobber the Clown let me know how you do.
What an awesome Fish! Way to go Jake!
Shari Boylan thanks!
Nice fish! Awesome to get that lost lure back too. Thanks
HeyNow_819 yeah that’s always a nice surprise.
Good vid, nice catch. I appreciate your content to help me get out more. Thanks for reminding me again and again why I no longer use ALL mono on my reals and also why I no longer use bait casters if I'm switching baits on them a lot as even the wind can change your settings so you don't get rats nests. I find they are great if you have a lot of them set for specific baits and weights. Cheers though.
Awesome video!!
Mark Larsen thanks man. I had a ton of fun.
AWESOME CATCH!
Kari F thanks
Make a plug knocker for getting snagged cranks back. Awesome video and sweet bass. 😱
Get out and live it up baby!
great content brother def got my sub
Well Done, Sir! Well Done! I got to Chevelon and camped...brutal climb out for a 65 yr old. Now I have to see where Canyon Lake is. Fishing some of the Rim Lakes, then to Black River. Getting Out And Living!! Outstanding catch!! I was gunna share my fishing story but its your channel!! 😄 Thanks Man, very cool!
michael tichonuk no worries man. I love it when others Get Out And Live! I’d like to go to Chevelon sometime soon. I hear that place is pretty cool.
@@GOALFishing its been very quiet this week at campground, maybe one other party staying the night. There's a DIY yak trailer with busted axle on ATV trail to a beautiful Lake with fewer boats on water then the other Rim Lakes. I dunno if you have access to ATV. I left my Sea Ghost in N. Ga this trip. I fished the creek below spillway for 1,000 yds give or take. Definitely more wild trout here then other Rim Lakes. But again, one has to work to fish it. But we yakrs always work to fish an area, don't we?
No signal down there at all so one needs to be...resourcfull if disaster occurs. Its isolated and one of the most peaceful locations I've been in to in...decades. Bob Marshall ( Wilderness area) comes to mind. One day I saw no one at all down there ! Glorious!
michael tichonuk That is awesome! I love places that take a little more effort to get to because it weeds out those who are not willing to put in the work. I will give it a try sometime. I love places that have a lot of wild fish.
Thank you! Where abouts on the lake would you recommend to bank fish from?
I was out today and grabbed my 12' tenkara rod to play with the bluegill and ended up catching a 2lb bass on a #16 kebari.
Love Canyon lake. The giant white pile of rock that goes 3/4 of the way up the cliff across from where you were fishing was a massive lightning strike around 1910. At least some park manager told me. At 4:45 far rigjt you can see it
@J Nolette that's really cool! Thanks for sharing
I've caught several nice largemouth just off of that same point. Lost a lot of lures there too lol
Oo
Only one more cast....
REBEL Crawdad Z.
Losing those fish is the main con of crankbaits - it's easy for fish to shake them loose, despite all the hooks. Unless it's a pickerel, then every hook will be bone deep in it😂
FYI, to help your rods last longer, when snagged pull back straight and thumb the reel
Would recommend 15 lb. Braid with a 4 foot floro leader or straight mono for bank Fishing?
KR
would you recommend bank fishing at canyon lake in this season or is lake pleasant better
Let’s go fishing! New at fishing and need a lot of help I live in the east valley
Curious where at Canyon Creek you go? I was there this morning, around Acadia. Kept getting snagged in the rocks, the spots in your video look to be a lot nicer then where I was. Thanks
@Brynn Howe I usually follow the road at the acacia recreation site to the very end. There are some good spots all along that area though. I snag quite a bit too, that’s just part of fishing where the fish are😁
Hey man, love the channel. I just moved back to AZ. I have a channel as well and would love to meet up and do some fishing sometime. You make some stellar vids and give great tips. Tight lines. Lmk if you ever want to hit the water 🎣
Fished same area of Accaia yesterday from shore and I got 3 largemouth on the Cabela's mean eye, blade baits in chartuese/yellow and one was sunrise shad..lost 3 unfortunately, lots of snags for those trebles from shore. Also a few bluegill too. No yellow bass I Fished 6-12
Eric Bonofacio nicely done man! Anything big on the largies?
@@GOALFishing nothing huge, just average but on the bright side not dinks
Eric Bonofacio the white and black buoy is about 12 feet and it drops pretty quick past that one. The no wake buoys are around 30
You must go super early on a weekday, I can never get to the lake before there's tons of people.
So on Thursday I caught 2 keepers one blue gill and a yellow bass. The rest of the catches were all blue gill except another yellow bass that was literally 2 inches long. Had ton of fun!
nicholas hinton awesome man! Let me know what you think about the yellow bass when you eat it.
G-O-A-L Fishing shoot I ate it same day less then 12 hours after. Super good!! Almost like cod. Would never of thought it.
Thanks bud I feel better now. I need to fish with you. Are you free during the week?
Looks fun! But, FYI I spend a bunch of money on changing my line / quality line, especially 12 to 6 lb.
do you know a place i can shoreline camp and do some catfishing? please help and thank you.
Thanks or video, enjoyed learning from it..
When is the best time to go to canyon?
What part of the Lake where you fishing? I've only been to Tortilla Flat area and can't seem to find a bank to fish from.
@Dewayne MDC this was at the Acacia recreation site.
Hello, the mean eye bait your using. What length is it? you said 1/4 ounce chrome back but not the length. I wanted to ask before I order it.
@CHEVBOY !! It’s 1 5/8”
Yo I just moved to Pheonix here for the next couple of months, whats some other good fishing holes this Marylander can visit
@Eric Henriquez Bartlett lake up by sb cove recreation site is good. If you’re bank fishing plan on snags because there’s a lot of rocks.
I've been there quiet a few times and never had the results you had here. What time of the year was this? Looks like early morning. Was this right out from the public swimming area? Fun to watch, but would like some details. I caught some blue-gills there a long time ago and couldn't eat them, as they were horribly mushy and muddy tasting. I'm curious if the bass are edible. I lost so many lures there to rock snags it wasn't funny, and finally gave up.
I am interested in your kayak. I see that it is a Field and Stream. What model and where did you get it?
@K_ Gaston I got it at Dicks Sporting Goods. It’s a field and stream shadow caster. Here’s a link to a video I did on it. th-cam.com/video/oXrwvcHzqNg/w-d-xo.html
I didnt even know there was yellow bass in there
“Oooh look a dead kitty” LOOOL that cracked me up. Also those patos didn’t respond to you. How rude :(
PoopFish did you notice that the patos laughed at me when I snapped off? How rude of them. I thought I was being polite 😂
G-O-A-L Fishing lol, dude you’re my new favorite az youtube fishing channel. great stuff. looking forward to more videos!
PoopFish thanks man that means a lot!
Right on! So when you say your hook is bent up pretty bad, do you mean you just gotta realign it so the hook is straight up? 9:10
ty max yes. Just need to bend it back with pliers to match the other set of hooks.
I'll be moving to Arizona in a few months. I used to fish in Arkansas, can you recommend some basic fishing lures used in Arizona please.
DRT Klash 9 Megabass 10 inch mag draft
Depends on season and where you go
which spot is this?
Only been to canyon once. I am a bank fisher, mostly Bartlett. Where do you park at canyon? Thanks , enjoyed your video.
Keith Laurence I usually park at the acacia recreation site.
Dude.. great fish, but get it back in the water. They dont breath air man!
Can you catch and cook at this lake? I appreciate your reply 🙏🏼
what lure were you using?
@Fastco0311 I was using a Cabelas mean eye blade bait in black and chrome. I do show what I use at the end of the video.
Hey how are you not getting any backlash??? I get so much. Do you have tips for a beginner?
dman0odman It takes practice to get it down. Make sure you get the brakes set so that the spool doesn’t unspool too fast. I would practice with something about 3/4 oz until you start getting the hang of it and then try other things. Once you get used to the bait casters you’ll love em.
dman0odman another important thing I left out is that you use your thumb as a brake too to keep the spool from unspooling too fast.
Brake is important, but setting spool tension is more important
Why did I yak all around Canyon the other day for lesser results 🤣😂. Way to go!!! I need to fish around the rec sites more ofte .
Jesse Sardina haha yeah I felt the same way. It was nice not to unload and reload the kayak for a change.
Would you please post the GPS coordinates of your trips?
Is canyon lake only fish and release?
No
What side of the lake is that
@Checo G this is at the acacia recreation site
Couldn't find a fish on canyon lake. Alot on the screen but no takers.
Bobber the clown I was there yesterday too. I managed to get just one little dink and that was it.
Will you do fishing lessons and what would you charge for me and my wife? thx.
Stuart Gross I haven’t put a lot of thought into doing fishing lessons. I am working on some online products that will help you but they are not ready to launch yet.
@@GOALFishing I’ll keep a lookout. If you ever decide on lessons count us in. Enjoy your videos!
Stop adjusting your drag after you hook a fish and you'll have a whole lot more luck landing them
You need a pass to fish in canyon lake or can you get away with it ?
Buy a pass. Support the lake
Why not fry some of these big bass
Lost me as soon as you walked to the lake. Grrrrrrr!
Can anyone go fishing at canyon lake
Swift Truthmindset as long as you have a license and are able to do a little hiking then yes. If you use the recreation sites be sure to buy a recreation pass.
