Hi I’m a beginner and your video is the first I’ve seen when I looked up how to buy fishing rods for beginners. It’ll be my first time to go on a fishing trip next week ☺️

We were just looking at some of our Walmart's selection this past weekend. They have an exclusive Lew's Rod & Reel combo I didn't know about that is actually pretty sharp looking in blaze orange colors! Middle of the pack is where it's at! I know some people have the means and freedom to indulge, but I'd prefer more in the gas tank when towing the 14ft ;) AND I'm editing this because I opened my mouth before watching and there you are with exactly what I saw.

All your information is spot on. The only other thing i would add is the Eagle claw 172 piece bass kit. Comes with all the weights, hooks and bobber stops youll need at $15 dollars. I buy several in the winter and maybe use 1 per summer broken down into 2 kits, Bank fishing and kayak.

Dooood. I just found that lews combo at Walmart and they messed up. It sales for 79.99 it was supposed to be on Sale for 40.00. But they labeled it for 18.99. I bought 2 and they didn’t care so I went back and got 3 more. 5 rods at 18.99 a piece with a 2 year warranty for another 5 bucks a piece . Gonna be a great birthday gift for the fishin buddies . Lol Thanks for opening my eyes to that rod !!

Fantastic tutorial and no argument can be made for your choice of keeping it simple yet effective, LOVED IT! Only thing you missed was a surface lure. Either a top water frog (a JR size) or my pick for beginners, the classic silver sided floating Rapala. Been using (the double and triple treble hook size) floating Rapalas for over 40 years, they are just amazing when twitched like a dying minnow!

Got caught without a license about 15 years ago in PA. I had always had a fishing license every year before that and didn't go much. Ended up going camping and had a pole so why not try fishing. Well ended up 2 wardens came up and in the end costed me about $400. Will never ever not spend the $20 some bucks again! Even if I don't go at all that year.

Awesome video Wendell but, I highly recommend K&E Bass Stopper rigged worms the non weed less ones. My wife has one tied on one of her poles all the time. She caught monsters on those in small waters. No weights, any color , directly to 8lb line, open face. That's her go to. Makes me sick lol

Great idea for a video! My setup - 1) 6'6" medium power fast action spinning rod & reel combo(Wright & McGill) w/10lb PowerPro braid. 2) 6'6" medium heavy fast action baitcasting rod & reel combo(Abu Garcia) w/15-20lb PowerPro braid. Got a nice backpack, fits 3 Plano 3600 boxes in the main compartment & keep all my soft plastics in another compartment, another one has scissors, pliers, fillet knife, slip floats, walleye spinner rig tying components, etc... Yes, it's stuffed to the gills. 😆 LOL

Haven't fished in 40 years. Retiring in a year and need a video on how to rig those wacky worms. Also any other really good videos you've done on kayak fishing. Just bought the sun dolphin boss 12' and will need to work on that a bit. Oh, and I have some 3D printers. I plan on designing one of those seat risers you showed in another video. Do you still recommend those?

@wendellfishing Жыл бұрын

Hey 3D Bob! Here's a video on how to rig the Wacky Worm: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a66ggsyTltm7eWg.html when it comes to seat risers, I definitely still recommend those for 3 reason, allows me to get in and out of my seat easier, 2: raises the seat so I can put my underseat storage under it: geni.us/Dewalt and I can see a whole lot more when it comes to sighting fish and what's under the water at a distance.

Bait casters have a time and a place if your a bank angler I would recommend you get a decent spinning reel baitcasters are super accurate and are great for flipping and pitching when your on a boat but you can do the same thing with a spinning reel with practice spinning reels are easier to cast far I suggest using 15lb power pro

I know people who swear by their ugly sticks. It has fairly high reviews for that price point. A great entry level bass setup that won't break the bank.
