I would LOVE your feedback on this video, we want to be better!! Also, did you see the fish rip me over those rocks? 🤷🏽‍♀️

It may seem like a lot but one thing I add to my bobber set up is a medium size corkie right above the bobber. So bobber stop, 2 beads like you do, then corkie then bobber, bead and bobber stop below that. The corkie lets me know if anything is tangled up or not sitting right. Sometimes my bobber is straight up and down like its fine but the corkie is sitting off to the side of the top of the bobber and that tells me my line wrapped or twisted during the cast. When everything is fishing right the corkie will sit directly on top of the bobber. Plus if you happen to be combat fishing itll help you distinguish your bobber from everyone else's. Oh and make it a bright corkie that contrasts your bobber color. Orange top bobber, use a chartreuse corkie. chartreuse bobber use a orange corkie. One color is usually easier to see depending on the light or glare so it adds a visual aid in that respect too.

Absolutely right Bad Ash with the bead colors and the clarity of the color of the water.

Loved your video and learned a lot Thanks for sharing

Love your perspective of nature, Ash!

Love your perspective and your reverence for the wilderness, Ash.

Excellent video! Love the “how to” tips and demonstrations.

Great video thank you for posting.

Great video! Nice little buck and some good tips for bead fishing.

WOW big fish

Awesome episode!! FISH WHISPERER

I really liked this video. I'm looking forward to setting up this double bead and double bobber stop system. The underwater bead comparison was informative and overall I thought it is a great video. Sorry about that "Rock Ripper" but that's fishing! That buck was a beauty. Thanks Ash

Thanks for the tip on the lower bobber stopper! Along with all the other info… water color, etc. Jim

Good tips on the brighter beads etc, certain rivers they really like beads 😉

Nice video. Most double bead videos show the beads more spaced apart and each bead with its own hook. This is a cool setup when the regs only allow one hook. But do you have a decent hooking percentage on fish biting the top bead? It seems kind of far from the hook. Thanks

Use this technique today and I was the only one to hook into a fish. So A+

If I run a bead I will generally match the inline weight to the float about the only time that I won't do that is running more than one split shot on the leader, with a jig or using Bait weights and I always snell the hooks to add yarn in bigger off colored water.

Yeah, I’ll definitely be back. I’m subscribed to your channel. 🙂 I just want to see your filleting skills. If you could fillet the fish on camera every time you catch one, that would be great. 😌

Gotta love being the early bird and getting to your favourite spot. However, you always get assholes that just come in and fish with you there. Then again, the river is nice to wash away the DNA! Lots of love and blessings from Ontario Canada!

Awesome breakdown on presentation in dirty water conditions. Hope its been raining enough for you up there to keep your season going! We are begging for some rain in Nor cal and Southern Oregon.

Hi Ash. What are your favorite reels? What pound braid and brand on main ? Great video

Nice Buck... I never tire admiring those colors... Nice video. My go to bead is orange/white with the white up and orange down and some white yarn w/ shrimp oil. I cut the yarn at the base of the hook so no short strikes.

Also, since you're in the Northwest... I really think you would love a fishing trip to Banks Lake for smallmouth bass. Next weekend my wife and I are going to Lake Havasu here in AZ for stripers, smallmouth and flathead catfish. Sometimes I do miss Washington for fishing rivers for salmon, sturgeon and steelhead. Ocean for rockfish and lings 🥺

The best smile ever... :) Great job and patience getting the second fish out of that snag (although it broke the line later anyway). Question?! So you really float beads? I've only either drifted or bobberdogged beads. I thought they needed to roll on the bottom. So you fish your beads mid-water or do you adjust the leader to drag the bottom anyway? I think they are semi-buoyant so if you float fish them, they would be at mid-depth regardless of the leader length anyway. I've never tried that before. Anyway, I was thinking how cool it would it be to run into you randomly on a river one of these days. :)

Not fair that you are putting the bead stops on the line WITHOUT magnifying glasses!!! Jumping fish!!!! Yahoo! Smart fish going through the grass and over the rocks - I hate when that happens! Great video, thank you. FISH --------------> ON Neighbor Henry

What up bad ash.greetings from forest walker.

Are you fishing in Washington?

Braided line is an absolute must with a float rod. It floats and allows you to mend line easily for a more natural presentation.

When Matt said Ollie sit Ibtgought he said holy S%#! Lmao haha

Nice video. Could you please share the link of the beads which you used and sizes? Thank you and keep it up

Anytime a fish gets me in a log or brush and I know I’m running too light of leader to pull them through I always hit free spool and let them swim out. Not much you can do about the rocks 😂 maybe wade out and keep the rod tip as high as possible.

Fish on everyone.

😉🥃🇺🇸

When will we see you fishing the CenterPin? :D

that was the tinyest bead...what size was that 4mm? 6mm?

Lmao you getting ripped around by that fish. Me and my bud hooked a nice wild on the cowlitz yesterday. Got caught up on a log in the way in and I went in after her😂. I specialize in fishing spots not landing spots I told him.

Fly fish mono rig. 😃

That's what I'm talking about, don't you love that Revo rocket reel it picks that line up quick I love high speed reels when bobber fishing, and when those steelhead or salmon rush you that reel will keep up so the line don't go slack and give the fish a chance to get that hook loose.

Two hooks, not legal in Canada.

I love you!

Ash is a serial (fish) killer

My replies to comments in comment threads haven’t been seen by anyone on any channel lately and I don’t know why, so I’ll type here. I’m not trolling you, lol. I’m just giving you a video request. Sorry if I’m annoying you, that’s not my intention. Happy Valentines Day !

Great information. …. But … maybe paint your nails flesh toned. Was easy listening but hard to follow with 10 bright white bead like nails flashing where your working set up.

I’m sorry Ash…I can’t sit thru the YT leadin for 5 minutes

All you can see is those finger nail polish

BECAUSE IM BAAD IM BAAD YAKNOW IT LOL

Back in the old days we never used bobbers except in tidewater we just dredged the bottom with corkies like men!

PLEASE film yourself filleting the fish next time after you catch it immediately fresh out of the water. 🙏
