Nice Phatty's Captain !! You always kill it with those shiners. The I just caught a Monster Bass laugh cracks me up. Gonna give you a call about getting out for my Birthday in March !! God Bless and Be safe !
Thanks Ellis! As for fishing in March I'm all ready booked up! But I still have some openings in April! I can be reached at (386)325-3743 and leave a message! May take me several days to get back to you! Super busy!
That's 20 minutes from me . I haven't tried this method but I think we are gonna give that a shot . I've flung my share of lures there with decent results ... But not an 11 lb Nice catch
Well I've watched about all your videos sure was nice meeting you at salt springs a couple of weeks ago I did catch my personal best that day plus alot of 5 and 6 lbers keep making your great videos I've learned so much about fishing in Florida from your experience ill be lost this summer when I go back to Ohio
Dang buddy. I keep saying it but you have a talent for catching BIG fish. I don't do much fresh water fishing but my dad is a big bass fisherman. He literally just got a tv capable of getting TH-cam. He had never used it before. He has only three channels he subscribed to... Mine of course...lol, Hickock 45 (he also loves his guns), and The North Florida Angler! He really enjoys your channel. Keep those great videos coming. Tight Lines my friend 👍
I just bought a boat last week and I'm taking my son out to Rodman for the first time off a friends advice. I'm so glad I checked TH-cam and found your channel. Subscribe right away. Not sure if I missed it, I heard you say use heavy tackle, but can you tell me the line size and rod type you like best for this method? Thank you and the video is great. Can't wait to see more.
Great bassin' day CC! I just got a Tracker Pro 160 and want to start fishing Rodman. Don't know any of the logistics, so what ramp did you use to put in?
jealous as always CC! nice. . i heard that one lake we fish got fished out with someone catching a bunch of big ones and stocking their pond?? any truth to that one? if so, that sux!!
Really enjoyed your video but I was wondering if you ever hook these fish deep. They run for so long before you set the hook. Noticed you were using J hooks. Ever try circle hooks?
Sometimes! But I've found out if you leave the hook in and the fish isn't bleeding too bad they have about a 70 % survival rate. That's why I use only bronze hooks. In a few weeks the bass'es digestive system will cause these hooks to crumble down to nothing where they will be spit out or passed. I've caught many of these bass multiple times months later and they seem to be doing well! As for the circle hooks I've experimented with them and find they don't hook the bass quite as well and they will still swallow them sometimes!
It's a Min Kota Terrova spot lock trolling motor. I've had it for about a year and a half now and I haven't been super happy with it! It works great when its running but have had a lot of problems with it! Fuses keep burning out on it and wires will short out! Also the batteries start to go dead pretty quick when you use it in heavy current!
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler hi thanks for your response. One more question if you do not mind sharing. Do you cast net your shiners from the areas you fish? Matching the larger size roach shiners.
Another top video and great footage and fishing, enjoyed the trip Cory, thanks, thumbs up and good day from Down Under, Tony.
Thanks Tony! Always great to hear from my friends down under!
fantastic bass, always a pleasure to watch your new videos.
Thanks Mike! That really means a lot!
There you are slaying monster bass again. Love the colors on those Rodman brutes!
Thanks Tracy! Yeah there really dark from being way back under that cover!
This is awesome. I've been catching a bunch of shiners the past few days to bring to Rodman Saturday. Can't wait
Thanks Brandon and thank you so much for watching! Hope you did good Sat.
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler I tagged you in a post on Instagram of Saturday for us. We did great!
Wow I gave camped and fished at the Rodham Dam and realized that I wasn't fishing. I had no idea bass got that large. Your awesome!!!
Thanks for watching Florida-Gator and thank you so much for the kind words!

All those fish were super chunky! I love those Dark colored Bass!
Yep they are Eric! Our typical prespawn bass.

Amazing video!!! Where did you get those big shiners!?
Awesome Video. I stopped by the boat ramp on my way back to Illinois. Can't wait to give it a try. What time of year was that video made?
11.1 ! A monster Bass all day and night! Shoot Yeah!
You know it Charles! I hook em in the mouth!!!
Great day Cory
You going to kingsley this year?
@@MrThomasfouraker I think so have to wait for a friend to get me in
Thanks Tommy!
😎👍🤛💪
Thanks Michael!
I’m just curious where you get your shiners . Do you buy them or catch them?
Great bassin' day CC! I just got a Tracker Pro 160 and want to start fishing Rodman. Don't know any of the logistics, so what ramp did you use to put in?
Thank you and congratulations on your new boat! As to your question I put in at Kenwood and Orange Springs boat ramps!
that was, were some beautiful fish, and, some other day they will embeau some one else
Yep they will and that's what's great about catch and release!
This is where I go for a Big Bass Blast, with a true fisherman. Bill Dance got nothing on you, brother
Thanks Chadd and thank you so much for the kind words! It really means a lot!
Where do you get your shiners from if you don’t mind me asking?
jealous as always CC! nice. . i heard that one lake we fish got fished out with someone catching a bunch of big ones and stocking their pond?? any truth to that one? if so, that sux!!
Yep you heard right! You can still catch a big one in there once in a while but it's not like it was!
Really enjoyed your video but I was wondering if you ever hook these fish deep. They run for so long before you set the hook.

@@TheNorthFloridaAngler Thank you so much for your reply
Do you guide any for bass?
What brand of trolling motor is that? Have you had it long? How would you rate it?
It's a Min Kota Terrova spot lock trolling motor. I've had it for about a year and a half now and I haven't been super happy with it! It works great when its running but have had a lot of problems with it! Fuses keep burning out on it and wires will short out! Also the batteries start to go dead pretty quick when you use it in heavy current!
How much do you charge to guide a bass fishing trip?
Excellent question!
I charge 500.00 a day for one or two fishermen plus the cost of wild shiners.
@@TheNorthFloridaAngler hi thanks for your response. One more question if you do not mind sharing. Do you cast net your shiners from the areas you fish? Matching the larger size roach shiners.
@@Xray4858 No I catch them where ever I can get them!
Hey C.C. How can I get in touch with Howard. I need some Shiners. Another awesome video captain!!! Tight Lines…….
Howard passed on last year unfortunately.
@@biginkdog ty I was unaware. Do you know where I can buy wild shiners???
@@gettintothapoint9769 over in interlochen theres a bait shop .
Howard passed away this summer. You might try Hawthorne bait in Hawthorne! I don't have the number!
Man you crazy letting them huge fish go
