Swimbait fishing is regarded as one of the coolest ways to catch bass and normally people associate big swimbaits with big fish all the time and that just isn't true. Today, we look at the ugly side of swimbait fishing that everyone goes through but no one really talks about!

I’ve told them to call the Game Warden for the same thing. I had a security guard call a city cop and he said I had to leave. I explained they don’t own the water but he wouldn’t listen and I didn’t want him to hassle me when I left in my truck later. Ramps next to the marina. Game Warden said the cop was wrong and I can fish anywhere on the lake except inside the buoys around the overflow tower on the dam.

The golf course I kayak on is always telling me they own the water. I laugh and tell them nobody owns the water. Of course they call the cops. I called FWC, the Florida Wildlife Commission and an officer came out and personally told the manager to leave me alone or risk being arrested for harassing me.

Caught a few here and there, but I’ve been feeling more and more discouraged here as of late. I just have to keep my head in the game and keep grinding. This video is just what I needed! Thanks

Homeowner never came out to yell at me ever again. Luckily.
