ฝัง

- I made this video in the fall. Please use this video to help a new angler or a seasoned angler get into saugeye, Also this will add another tool to your bag when you go river fishing! Big Joshys have produced soo many fish last year and I cannot wait for this fishing season! Especially on the Great Miami River. I have caught anything from the freshwater drum, smallmouth bass, spotted bass and saugeye on these swimbait retrieves! Good luck and like this video if it helps you out! Saugeye fishing has quickly become one of my favorite species to target in Ohio! These tips and tricks will help you year-round with saugeye. Swimbaits are probably one of the best baits to tie on and catch these toothy critters. I hope you have learned something in this video! TIGHT LINES!
Thanx for sharing your knowledge and skills. I learned a few pointers.
no problem!! Saugeye are a fun species to pursue in the cooler months!
I like all the Methods
appreciate it!! Goodluck this year
Cool how to. I love saugeye fishing but getting a larger one in the lakes around me like deercreek are few and far between. Never used a joshy for them. Always used crappie jigs.
my biggest saugeye ever came off of a crappie jig lol Try some swimbaits in the shallow coves at night in the summer
@@thecreekcrawler never tried for them at night. I'll have to give it a try.
@@JustinsFishinFetish oh man anytime between sunset and 11pm are my favorite times
I agree Justin. We don't get the funding like the other districts do for the fish and wildlife. I spoke to a fish biologist about it from Chillicothe and that's what he had told me. The Scioto is awesome if you can get the access in Chillicothe area.
Caught a 20lb carp on a Josh’s at Indian lake last week. They really do catch everything
EVERYTHING lol Catching Huge Drum in the Hocking river on them is a blast!
Also curious how you go about finding parking places. As far as I can see there’s not really any place close to this spot to park.
There is some parking spots within about 300 yards. Just gotta park along the road
Any suggestions for places near Columbus for saugeye?
The Scioto river and all the dams on it!
Thank you for the Saugeye. Last time I was Saugeye fishing at Deer Creek, I nailed a 2ft carp on a yellow mr twister grubb 😂. I did get some Big Joshys at the Expo so I'll be trying them.
No problem man!! Saugeye are fun to go after and a welcome by catch when chasing smallmouth
@@thecreekcrawlerBig Joshy update: Already hooked and line cut on a 3ft Tiger muskie at Alum creek spillway in early February saugeye fishing. ( white and glittery 3.25")
Last Sunday at a new rebuilt spillway in SE Ohio, nailed 7 bass at 12" - 16" range with a Big Joshy 3.25 Bullhead color w/ Jigmasters hooks in fast muddy current.
Thank you for all your videos
The Oklahoma PB Smallmouth was insane
Big Joshy are like the best all around bait lol
they get the job done for sure!
Great tips man never hurts to slow down in presentation when fishing
I have caught so many fish just barely retrieving my swimbaits..something about slow rolling a bait and it gets destroyed..pure adrenaline
@@thecreekcrawler very much so. I've done the same so many times although I dont do a lot of swim bait fishing a0nymore but it's fun for sure
Excellent video! Thanks for the shout out!
have to give credit where it is due!
Caught my first saueye today with the yoyo . came on here looking fir tips
heck yea man congrats! I hope my video proved helpful
gotta love joshys
ALL DAY LONG
@@thecreekcrawler that slush has be producing at alum this time of year for me
@@landensfishing8482 probably one of my top 3 colors
Does this apply to other plastics like twisters and other saugeye artificial baits?
Absolutely!!
@@thecreekcrawler you sir are definitely one of my favorite TH-camrs. Would love to meet in person and fish together. Hopefully I run into ya out on the water. Sometimes ring there to experience it makes all the difference. I tried whites mill few weeks back and that current was just constantly dragging my lure way out in the water. This year has been a first for me targeting rivers and they are definitely there own species in the ways you fish them. Haven’t quite gotten the hang of it but I’m trying to learn cause I want to make a trip down to Racine this fall.
@@allsnaggedup7922 I truly appreciate you watching my content!!! You might run into me one day on the Hocking River snd if so make sure to come say Hi!! The river is a very productive fishery once you figure out the basics and put time in on the water! my biggest tip is to stay simple. Dont make it complicated
Will that work for Texas Rig also
ahh you could probably figure something out with a texas rigged swimbait! just peg the bullet weight!
Ok Thankyou I just have the hardest time using swim baits where I’m at for some reason.
@@moremut keep your line tight is very important!
Haha i knew this was the Great Miami. I'm from Dayton. Love Fishing the rivers out here. Nice video bro
thank you! An awesome river and tons of big fish get caught here! I cant wait for the spring
Alum Creek or Antrim Lake in Columbus, Man.
I fished Alum spillway once but I live pretty far from both locations. I have Lake Logan and Buckeye within a reasonable distance.
Where are the fish though?
In the river and if you use these tips you can find success 😎
Where where you fishing at on the river? The background looks familiar. I live fishing the river from Franklin to Dayton. Great job!
This is one of my honey holes..but somewhere south of dayton
Nice video. Thanks for sharing techniques. Have you done much fishing from Ceasar's Creek Lk or Action Lk shorefishing ?
no problem I love teaching people how to catch fish! I have never been to acton lake. I went to caesars creek as a kid but not since then.
Love your vids man... I like the info you put out and how you go to different places around. what channel is troy becker on?
Thank you! I try and get to as many waters as I can. he doesn't have a channel he just is in some fishing expo videos!
This looks like miamisburg area
good eye!
@@thecreekcrawler I used to ride bikes at the jumps across the river when they was there years ago been all up and down that part of the River grew up on it my whole life
@@jeremymcguire8761 Heck yea man I grew up there with a rod in my hand. I know that river section intimately.. a great place
DAMNNNN BUBBBBBB
get the net buuuuuuuuub
Will this work for river walleyes too?
walleye, saugeye and sauger! you'll catch them all with some swimbaits
I've noticed that u keep pulling at your line after u cast(right before u retrieve your bait)why are u doing that?is there a good reason why,or is it somekind of habit u formed?just don't understand why u constantly pull at your drag
it is a habit I have formed and I haven't really noticed until I started recording myself fishing. I fear losing fish to drag being too tight lol
Actually pulling at your line could weaken it,just an observation.to each his own.love your channels thoug
@@jasejjohnson5386 I need a fidget spinner attached to my rod butt lol
Bro drop those Joshy's and pick up some HAWGHUNTERCUSTOMBAITS... just saying :) Tightlines
I've been trying all kinds of baits lately! wait until you see the next video!! Add me on Instagram and show me those customs too!
