Thanks for all the tips. You’ve really helped me to become a better fisherman
Only fishing channel I click on the videos right away now. No BS, quick and straight to the point. Thanks Steve!
Thanks so much!
Ive been throwing 3” wieghtless tubes on a trokar tube hook 1/0. Thrown deep and let that spiral down and get bites. Also swim it over grass with “twitch twitch” and its killer❤
The Bass Professor of the 21st Century! 🎣 Thanks!
Found them yesterday in 12 ft.. right where you were describing, sparce weeds but right where the light faded... they were spitting up 1.5 inch gills on the deck......once again you are spot on steve, great info 😊
@@somewhereinsd362 wow! Thanks for sharing this. It definitely has to be rough being a little gill and trying to survive the summer.
This man is the Doug Hannon for this generation…really enjoy quick, concise information ,I don’t understand only 28k subscribers??? Keep up the great work..HAVE FUN!!!
Thanks! I appreciate that. The channel keeps growing steadily.
This video = new subscriber. It doesn't matter if you have a $350 rod with a $650 reel and 800 different lures, if you can't find the fish. Excellent video keep em comin' !
Thank you! Will do.
4:07 this makes SO much sense! thanks for another valuable insight Steve!
I love fishing for largemouth this time of year in the evenings. We HAMMER them when it hits around 7:15pm or later. As soon as the sun sets on our home lake it's game on until dark, it's nice since it's after I get off of work and am able to get out for a couple hours. But he's absolutely right about the light, anyone who fishes for bass in the summer extensively, we all will tell you the same thing.
I love fishing summer evenings. Thank you for sharing this!
I am guilty of fishing too shallow in the summer time. This time of year, I have never been that good at catching bass. With the footage you just showed, I think I need to target those off shore fish, or simply turn around and fish out of the other side of the boat. I'm headed out this weekend Steve and will try to target these off shore bass with the information you just presented. Thanks and have a great weekend.
Good luck! Just turning the other way in the boat can be an excellent strategy. Let me know how it goes.
Seeing from dark to light makes sense.
How true ! Thanks for verifying my suspicions. I fish almost every day, and I've noticed the small bait has all but disappeared from around my dock, which is usually loaded ! The last couple of weeks, I've taken to fishing more offshore, with good success. Now I just need to concentrate more on the water column closer to the developing thermocline.
It is amazing how those water temps are so similar and then it hits that thermocline and drops quite a bit. So glad the camera has a temp gauge on it.
Great video, it fits what I see at a local lake and been wondering about. The pads and shallows produce very little now, then just off the pads it’s the small bass, then the big ones are further out in 12 ft and deeper. On this lake schools of small gills roam and feed on the surface offshore, like the Shad do in other lakes. I’ve caught several 3 to 4 pounders in a row tossing a Zman Giant TRD on the Zman Magnum Shroomz jig offshore.
It’s such a great feeling when you figure them out. Great job! That had to be a blast.

That is excellent!
This is 5 minutes of the best fishing YT content I've come across in sooo long. Short, straight to the point, no fluff or BS. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! Will do!
8.5 thousand views and under 1000 likes. 😢I don't get it. Thanks Steve for working so hard
This would explain why I've found so much success fishing a compact spinnerbait over submerged grass this past month.
That's awesome! That has got to be fun.
I have caught more fish since I started watching your videos. Thank you for what you do!
That is so great to hear! Thank you!
I love your educational approach to angling. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
Have you done a night fishing video. How the fish respond to different color lights or just lights that are placed above and below the water.
I haven’t. I definitely need to do a night fishing video.
This is fantastic!! I really think you figured this out!! Yes they are following the food. I always come home from work and look to what new post you released ❤ please keep them coming. You are doing an Amazing job!!!😎 Thank you!!
Thank you! Will do.
This information will definitely help me catch more fish to be honest I never really had success on the water until today's fishermen opened up the behavior of the fish accompanied with 📹 video footage. Now I am confident every time I hit the water.
That is terrific! Confidence is such a big part of the sport.
I had issues with the "bass seek cooler water' idea. I live & fish in NW PA. The water temps can barely be compared to those in the Deep South, and LMB live in more northern cooler areas. They don't have ANY problem with 80 degree water as a species. It didn't make sense to me that bass would care about water that warm, that temps would be much different 15 feet down compared to 2 feet down, that oxygen levels would be different. But light levels ARE less and where the 'baitfish' go are important.
Makes so much sense, good gob Steve
Thanks!
I can conquer this video, I have been fishing from 10:30am to the next day to around 3pm and it amazes me to the bass movement going on Stonewall Jackson Lake in WV. I have done this 3 weeks in a row and from 5am to 8am they will get to the bank after that is over. Shad follow the moonlight on the surface because of insects, and that leads them to the banks sometimes. But following the bass is frustrating because they have full bellies.
It can be really frustrating when they have full bellies. I have some tough fishing around here for a while when the Mayfly hatch is going on. And when you do catch one they look like they are ready to pop from how much they have eaten.
Thank you for this info Steve! Great Video!
Thanks!
Makes total sense, different perspective i havent heard/seen. You got my sub 👍👍👍
Awesome, thank you!
For the first time this summer, when fishing a crankbait I've fished mainly bluegill and sunfish colored crankbaits as opposed to shad--and I'm definitely picking up more bites. Not sure if they don't see them as much, but I'm fishing shad about 20 or 30% of the time and panfish the other 70-80%.
Those panfish colors are a staple for me. Just so many gills in most waters.
Fantastic information. You’ve definitely helped me be a better angler! God bless
I’m glad it is helpful! And thanks so much for watching.
For some reason, I like to fish deep but when I’m in deep 12 to 15 maybe sometime 20 feet and I always get lucky
100%correct in my opinion !!!!
As a very long tme bank fisherman I never even saw anyone using a drop shot for smallmouth or largemouth, waiting for that guy to come along.
Hey, Steve, great to see ya today. Pray y'all are well. Great video, brother. Be safe
Thanks Shannon! We are doing well here, hope the same is for you. Have a terrific weekend. Can't believe July is basically half over already. Amazing.
Great information. Those under water shots are 🔥
Glad you like them!
I love your underwater videos. Now hard would it be to do some pond videos like this. Because they set up different than lakes im sure. The past few days I’ve been catching them 10-20 feet of the bank almost in the middle of the pond.
That is an excellent question. I actually have been traveling around to different ponds to try and do just that. The only problem I have been having is the water clarity. So far, all of them I have been too has been too stained to see anything. I am trying to get that video done though.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors o wow ok that’s cool man. Hope you get some good footage soon!
Bass are on the end of my line 😮
Great info as always. Thanks
Thanks!
Love the content! 💪🏻
Appreciate it!
Nice work. Can’t catch them. Don’t understand them. 😎😎
No big bass always feed in the middle of the day
Thanks man, my fish disappeared last week. I think they transitioned from frogs and panfish to the baitfish that are comming up the tidal estuary.
It is amazing how fast something like that can happen. It especially happens to me when chasing smallmouth around in the summer.
I learned more about bass behavior, the first time I ever caught one that had eyelids. lol! 😂😂😂
I'm kidding!
But the thought of no eyelids really cleared up my thinking.
They have to adjust to bright lights by physically relocating to a different location.
There's also the problem/benefit of huge eyes to a small brain ratio, and an extremely short travel distance.
Simply eyes to brain ratio!
I believe this effects their vision like how multiplication vs addition works.
9+9+9= 27 vs
9×9×9= 729
I believe this is how they are able to see really good at night or in murky water.
Plus using contrast dark to light has to work, because we can even see that.
All excellent stuff!
Very interesting.
Blackbass like to see but not be seen.
Sometimes I feel like those bass are smarter then I am. Just when I think I have them figured out, they change things up on me!
They can sure change things up in a hurry. Heading to MN at the end of the month. Hope to get some great footage of some smallies.
Is this the same as smallmouth bass
Smallmouth can move around even more. They will get on those baitfish and roam like crazy all summer.
They can't be hiding to good no where is bottomless haha put your search baits on
