How to fish a new weedy lake!

Рет қаралды 26,344

Жыл бұрын

I'm fishing a brand new lake in north central Minnesota. I know absolutely nothing about where, how or when to fish this lake. It's August so the water temperatures are in the 70-80's, waters clear and the winds are light. I'm starting in the north end which is the shallower and and it's full of all types of weeds, mainly pads, reeds and a variety of underwater weeds out to about 12' deep! This is the perfect topwater frog scenario! Let's see what happens!

I love that Roland doesn’t edit out the parts where he loses the fish, he shows us that these are situations fisherman face not like other fisherman that only show when they catch “monsters.” Roland Martin is the best. He shows us that every fisherman has their moments

Roland says “ Come out with your fins up” or I’ll throw the Spro frog 🐸!

Roland’s external, internal monologue is one of my favorite things on yt. Been watching since the early 90’s, taught me everything I know.

I need to try that senko back up trick! I’m sick of losing big fish on frogs. I’m listening Rolland!! Thanks for the advice sir!

@phantomshtter Жыл бұрын

I used to miss them all the time on frogs until I specified a frog set up. 1st key: 7' medium heavy to heavy action rod on STRAIGHT BRAID, 7.5:1 ratio reel. 2nd key: LET THEM TAKE IT FOR 3 SECONDS! 3rd key: Hit em hard and swing SIDEWAYS. No kidding I have like a 90% frog hook up ratio now.

I’ve increased my hooking percentage by using only Lunker Hunt Combat Frogs. Softer rubber. More hook sets!

Mr. Martin, It was a pleasure hearing you rep my home state. I've been a fan all my life and seeing you drill bass up here is awesome

Love fishing in MN. We were there about a week after this and absolutely slayed them in the Walker, MN area. Love seeing you fish these lakes and validate our fishing techniques up there!

Roland drops his rods like he doesn’t care if they fall in the water or not 😂 What a legend…thanks Roland with out your videos I never would have thought to catch fish with lures and soft plastics or think it was possible…I was fairly new to fishing 3 years ago 😊

Watching Roland Martin lose two bass in a row makes me feel way better about starting out and losing fish. Caught 10 bass this week hoping for a 20 bass week next week! I’ve learned so much from this channel it feels like I’m learning how to dunk from Micheal Jordan

I’ve fished new lakes in Wisconsin for first time that ended up being filled with weeds and never thought to use a back up like that. Great footage to prove your point. I’ll keep a senko on a spinning rod in the future. Thanks for sharing the knowledge, Roland!

Grew up watching Roland Martin , Bill Dance and Jimmy Houston as little kid, definitely learned a lot from them and it's what got me into bass fishing!!

Thanks Roland for another great video. When we fished together in March, I told you how I learned to fish a senko from your videos about 5 years ago. Since then, over 70% of all my bass have been caught on a senko. I try other lures first but always end up with the senko. All my 4-6 lb bass caught on senkos were on the 7” senko instead of the 5”. Do you ever fish the 7”?

I am up here in central Minn fishing the same way. They just miss on the frog but if I have enough room I use the whopper plopper and nail em. But of course the pike like it more so you have to use a wire leader otherwise you are leaving lots of money out there!
