Went to Alamo 3 weeks ago and had a bit of a tough time out there. Usually Alamo is non stop. Apache has been amazing the last few times I went, I’m hoping to grab some biggens during the week at saguaro 🌵 great video as always 🎣
It's that time of the year. It's either feast or famine out there. Apache has def been the exception. Things should pick up soon when it starts to cool down a bit. Lake temps are already dropping. Good luck at Saguaro!
You should check out the black label Balsa battle toad from wood bait country. I've been doing pretty well with them up here at willow lake in Prescott now that the weeds are going down
I caught an 8.5lber with a snap swivel like you had. I was not pulling on it really hard, though. I let him wear himself out. What area of Alamo do you like? Bottom, top, eat, west?
@@scottwelder Nice! This is the first time I've broken a swivel. I will admit my drag was too tight. It should have never happened but oh well. I've only fished Alamo a few times. So far I like it all but I think I prefer launching from the ramp at mid-lake and heading across to the other side.
They defiantly make better swivels. Look at amysports. I use the ss saltwater snap ball bearing one tied to 20# braid for all my top water rigs. Thxs for taking us.
haha that freaking donkey scare the crap out of me too and I wasn't even there LOL! I thought for a moment that it was a bear coming at you Mike! On another note, that's why I don't like to use those swivels! man that was painfull to find out it got away. I wish I could catch half the fish you catch Mike, either you are very good or very lucky :) Thank you for posting another great video and take care.
Man you have epic sessions!!! Crazy the fishing is so good even in the extreme heat 🔥
Thank you! It has been a good summer for fishing for sure. 🔥

I've never heard of those. I'll check 'em out. Thank you!
@@flipflopfishingAZ its a good topwater bait. Seems right up your alley
@@bmxgangster82 Fishing good at Willow Lake?
@flipflopfishingAZ my first fall out here. Trying to figure out still. But I caught 4 out there yesterday
@@bmxgangster82 Bass? Any size to 'em? Looks like a fun place.
You fish top water like a pro
@@buttdreads Yesir!
I have only had the swivel pop like that once and now you wont find them in my boat.
Yeah, I usually use a small barrel swivel on these tiny whopper ploppers but I didn't have any this day. I don't use swivels for anything else.

GEEEEEzus That Donkey Scared The Crap Out Of Me 😂😂😂
@@WelcomeToTheQShow2025 Hah! Me too! It was terrifying in person. 😆 🤣 😂
Me too lol, that happens to me alot at pleasant, especially at night, about jumped out if boat when first moved here, it was pitch black out
@@Woefman911 Jeez, I can only imagine a sound like that coming at me in the dark. 😆 🤣 😂 😹
Use a braided line with a swivel….learn to tied
@@tombates4235 Solid advice. Thank you!
