Now that was In Deep on the Delta! Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge!
Good luck GB - hope you load up on 'em.
Steve, this was fantastic! On the kayak, tides are a struggle. But I think this will help me think of them differently and learn them. I can totally relate to the “neighborhood” metaphor. I have some neighborhoods on the delta that I know. What I haven’t done is attach a tide factor to the doors in those neighborhoods. I love it. Also thinking about the fish sheltering from the current is helpful. I’ve always just thought about seems but not the fact that current is also broken by the other structures. It’s good stuff!! Thanks so much.
The first step is just thinking about it-then you really get confused. When the bite gets going we will get together and do a trip.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 sounds great! Thanks Steve.
The delta is a beast to learn especially if your trying to explore on a kayak.
I have caught many monsters and many man dinks. but it never really lets me down. Tight lines
Keep at it Austin-It's not easy but it's always fun trying.
Really good video. I like the way you broke everything down.
Thanks Ken.
Another excellent video mr steve. Thank you sir for giving up the goods 👍
Hi Danny-good to hear from you again-hope the fishing has improved for you.
Thanks again man!!! I’ve never paid attention to much to the tides as I don’t always have the option to go when the tide is optimal but understanding what I have when I go will be more info that will help me. Thanks again Steve!!!
Thanks Swooo-good luck-I'm rooting for you-send me a picture with the big one.
When I’m fishing for bass in the Delta…the section I’m in becomes my pond….I picture a huge pond and fish it. This definitely saves me Gas Money and fish are everywhere. It’s up to you To Listen Look and Learn.
That’s a Huge Reason I Go To The Pro.
Thanks Coop!
I like your way of thinking. More fishing and less running.
You do a great job explaining everything in depth and making it understandable for anyone who's new to the delta. Great info!
Thanks Hookup-I will be checking out your pre spawn video. Just want to check-are you ok if I mention your site in the report-I will be talking about pre-spawn soon and I would be glad to direct anglers to your prespawn video. I have always believed the more information you can get from a variety of sources the better off you are.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 yeah if you'd like to direct them over to us that would be great. We feel the same about getting people as much information as possible. Although we fish tournaments and are competitive we believe fishing is meant to be fun and shared with others. I did let people know about your channel in one of our other delta videos and told them you cover everything on the delta. Thanks Steve!
Steve, I was going to tell you to check out the Hookup channel if you hadn't already. Both you and the hookup are great for people like myself that want to kill it on the Delta and to have a better understanding of the river. I think actual technique videos would be great to. Not so much the lures and colors, but how to fish whatever lure you are fishing. Most videos on the tube show things so fast or they don't explain it too well. Just an idea. Thanks for the videos though. Oh yeah last Saturday when my buddy and I saw you with I think was your wife at the point, we went out to the main channel and hooked up on stripers using a megaBass jerk 50yrds leading to points on islands
Your videos are great also for breaking down the Delta!!
@@alceja3522 Thanks Al-good luck and make sure to let me know how you do.
Thanks again. I just love how you go after it on the delta. Gives me a reason to at least get out there!
Good luck Jeff-if it was easy everyone would have 20 lb. bags.
Very helpful Steve, thank you.
Thanks for the support and I'll be rooting for your success-I want a picture when the big one comes.
I appreciate your videos Steve, great content of the awesome delta.
Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
No problem Mark - hope you enjoyed the video and I will be rooting for your success-good luck.
Great information Steve. Thank you!
Thanks for the support David.
Again great information. Thank you. You are doing a great job on those videos. Keep up the great work
Thanks Thomas - good luck and make sure to send me a report on your next outing.
Absolutely the best information! I needed this tutorial a lot, been struggling and starting to get frustrated, but now I know I’m just learning how to boat fish. Gotta give myself some time. Thanks, can’t wait for the next video!
Thanks for watching Laura, it takes time and a little luck. Have fun trying and you will start catching fish. The first few are the toughest. Let me know how you're doing. Good luck.
Great video Steve !!!
Thanks
Thanks Larry-hope the information helps you to catch the big one-I want a picture when it happens.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997
Heading out next Wednesday I’ll keep you posted
Thanks Steve great Info, keep up the good work bud. Fish on!
You too JoJo-good luck.
Thank you Steve...
Thanks RetFlo-you're the man.
Great video, appreciate there is much to this topic but you laid a great foundation you can refer back to and build on in future videos.
Thanks for the support Glenn. This was a difficult video for me to do. Lots of not so exciting information - I really appreciate the feed back and knowing that people are watching. Good luck.
Would love to see how you self launch on the delta and good places to launch.
Thanks for the suggestion D . I will see if Ican come up with a boat launching video. Maybe a lunch and ramp etiquette video.
Thanks for the video! Almost 2k subs!
Thank you Eddie - It's crazy - I'm getting a little nervouse - usually my wife is the only one listening to me and she gets really tired of hearing my voice.
I'm a couple hours north of you, but dang I learned a lot in this session! Very interesting info! thanks Steve!
Thanks for the support and really glad to hear you enjoyed thevideo. Good luck.
Steve,
I love the videos and that you respond to your comments. Great info on the Delta. Are you able to show your techniques for the different tides etc... it would be awesome to see what you throw, when you throw a certain bait, explain why you landed the bait where you did etc... based on the tides. I have fished the delta for many years, but not consistently enough to understand the when, why, how and where yet. Maybe you can shoot a longer video and you can explain the entire situation for a particular spot, the tide movement, the bait and the technique. I often wonder should I throw a lure with the tide or run it against the flow...I am probably asking a lot, but I am sure many fisherman who follow you..trust you for your honest knowledge of the Delta and that you are willing to share your knowledge unlike others who try to hide everything. Whatever you can do will be appreciated. Great job!
Great comment-I want to do exactly what you have explained. As I come onto situations I will try and film the thinking behind the situation-Don't know if i explained that right but thats the way I wish other would explain fishing to me. Just remember-I'm not always right so keep an open mind. P.S. Check out the next video-3 baits-3 strategies-real simple.
For sure... thanks again !
Great Video Steve, I'm a bank fisherman, but I'm going to get into kayaking the delta, thank you for your time in putting these videos out, very useful
Thanks for the support Land Hunter-good luck and let me know how you do.
Everything you’ve explained is true. I’ve got many “neighborhoods” from fishing the same delta waters and always adding more. The problem is that often times these neighborhoods don’t always give you the same big bass next time you return even though the conditions are similar. I suppose that’s why we all have multiple rods on our boats and always moving trying to adapt to the best fishing conditions. This is what makes bass fishing so challenging........... the hunt for bass.
You just got me fired up Dave-I'm ready to go out right now. Thanks for the support.
I caught on a square bill out of Ladds about 4 weeks ago when it was tough and water was 49 degrees. Now I understand exactly why I caught that fish where I caught it ( in the trough near riprap) and that was where the tide was less in an oxbow. The tide was very strong that day.
Thanks Tyson-great to hear of your success and I really appreciate your support.
Excellent! I have a "slow boat." I want to visit the Ish Monroe Neighborhood part of the Delta. I'll get there. Eventually.
Yea-Ish Monroe's neighborhood would be great-I have been hanging out in Mr. Rogers neighborhood lately. I need to find a little more robust specimens - not asking for a tank - but a slow gradual weight increase would be nice.
Great work, thank you. BTW in my working life I always tried to develop a consistent mental framework to apply to problem solving. It’s a form of mental discipline that filters out the noise to provide better focus... and now you’ve given me the 500 yard neighborhood for bass fishing the delta: I love it!
Quick question (maybe not so quick). I’m pretty good with my tide tables- but when looking at the maps of the delta I am always confused as to which way, in many of the sloughs, the in or outgoing tides are actually moving. The rivers and major waterways are obvious but many channels meander and have confluences on both ends! Does a current map exist? I’ve seen such a map for SF Bay but not the delta.
I fish in a kayak so getting the direction of the current flows right (particularly large events) really matters!
Thanks again. Really was a very good video.
You couldn't have said it better. If you use logical problem solving skills that most of use use daily and apply those same skills to fishing things start to get a little easier. I know of no tide charts that show Delta currents. This is what time on the water will teach you and it's also why I like staying in small areas. You learn currents even if you have no idea of tides. My hope is to catch fish in the same spot without running all over.
Great video and some great info here. Any chance you do an episode on fishing the low tide and where fish move depending on that low tide? I have the hardest time catching fish at the low.
First of all Chris-thanks for watching. Second- the answer is yes. Low tide is a killer and I also struggle. I will be asking for everyone's low tide reports. How deep-what mehtod you were using and what type of bank you were fishing. I think if I get enough reports I can do a really good tow tide video that will show some definite trends on what anglers of all skill levels are using to be successful. I have had lot's of questions about low tide fishing.
Thanks for the great info! New to kayak fishing. This helps a great deal. I see how this affects bass. How about striped bass do they react the same to current or are they more likely to be in the main flow of the rivers?
Thanks for the support Terry-stripers like the current. Find the current and fish your baits fast-you should find stripers somewhere near by.
THUMBS-UP!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching Joe. Hope to see you on the river.
thats what I need
Thanks Haohan - Doing the videos has helped me - just talking about different things like tide and baits has reminded me of things that I sometimes forget to do myself. Good luck.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 tides in delta was always confusing me. I didn’t fish a lot black bass in delta, but tides definitely influenced striper action a lot!
@@fishingjungle9214 Find the current and you should find the stripers close by. From your last photo it looks like you already have the stripers dialed in.
Heading out to B&W for 3 day in early June. What area (neighborhood) would you suggest to learn first?
I would be staying away from the main channel. Stay in the smaller sloughs and fish deep in the tullies. Worms aad drop shot are king right now. A few days of warm weather may change things and put the fish in a more agressive bite. Fish slow for now.
Which Mobile tide app has the tide percentages? I use Tides which seems to have ft only.
Tides4fishing has all the info. I think the mobile is called neutide.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 found it Nautide!
I use the on line tide4 fishing and really like the info. I have found that in most cases after a days fishing the info is very close to what I find on the water but I also have days when the site says it's not the best day to go and the fishing pans out to be good. Use the information but don't let it stop you from going fishing.
So using this theory wouldn’t slack tide be the prime fishing?
Slack tide is a great time to be looking around. Usually the best tides are the first 2 hours of the low incoming or the high outgoing.
