It's so nice to watch a channel that doesn't clickbait, doesn't have cringe thumbnails, and isn't constantly trying to push a product. It's so rare to see youtube channels that actually care about the things they are talking about. You guys not only talk the talk but walk the walk as well and have since the very beginning!! NEVER EVER CHANGE!!! Not taking the easy way out and continuing to grind on the daily. You guys will always have my respect as some of the few people in life that aren't sellouts. Thank You for setting such an outstanding example!

I’ve been fishing bass for 50 years and learn something new every time I watch your videos. I love watching your underwater videos because so much information can be gained from watching the Bass’ underwater behaviour before striking.

Thanks Matt for sharing this amazing underwater footage. It's so cool to see whats going on underwater when we get bit! What really struck me on some of the footage is how hard and fast the bass flee with the bait. I'm just amazed at how fast, powerful and aggressive, like the one T-boning the other, they can be.

The Bass attacking the bluegill bait is my favorite. It pretty much puts to rest the myth that Bass always hit bluegill head first to avoid the dorsal fins. It also clearly illustrates that if you were to have set the hook the moment you felt that bite you would have swung and missed because she didnt have the hook until the second gulp. Love the underwater footage!!
@richbrethour29446 ай бұрын
I could not agree more @texasoutdoors9906, very valuable information. I have noticed a similar need to guarantee the target fish has the lure completely before setting the hook with most saltwater species.

I love schooling Bass they feed off each other's aggression they don't have time to check out the bait because when you snooze you loose. I've seen this with Bass around schools of bluegills as well they get in a frenzy. When I was a kid fishing farm ponds I would always use live frogs and bluegills and I don't know how many times I seen a Bass rip a bait from another's mouth the same thing with Smalley's and live crawfish but with the Smalley's I've seen two or more trying to get the bait from the hooked fish. Great video the footage you get underwater is awesome and really shows what's going on down there it's a view we rarely get to witness and helps a tremendous amount so thanks for all your hard work and information.

Was fishing a pond over the weekend and I noticed a 3 pounder floating belly up on the shoreline. I grabbed it to investigate and it had another largemouth down its gullet with the tail sticking out. I’d estimate the bass it ate was around a pound but it was too much for that 3 pounder to handle and it choked to death. I had seen KZfaq videos where people fish bass out of the water that are choking on bluegill or other fish but this was the first time I got to see it up close. By the way, moving that decomposing bass did not smell too good!

Love these underwater videos. The first bass was unreal.He was acting like a striper! I was throwing wakes at night in the dead calm, no wind , no sound, throwing different wakes, different speeds and nothing after over 2 hours. Put a loon 130 on and started doing a few different speeds trying to figure them out, when I decided to rip pause, let it sit, repeat second cast I got a 4. Less than 10 casts later, I got my 6. Still my biggest plopper fish.

A buddy of mine found and caught a bed fish 2 days ago, I didn’t believe him so I went to see for myself. Sure enough there’s 2 fish paired up on a bed in the beginning of February 😮 This puts into perspective how there is isolated populations of bass, which means they don’t all start making moves at once. this is what makes the spawn season so fun because it could last longer than what we’ve been taught

Matt, Is it posible that the 7 pounder just learned a tactic of banging into a smaller fish that beat him to the bait?? Maybe he's learned that if he crashes into a bass that has a bait already, that bass may cough it up and make an easy meal of a wounded bait for the big bass? It look like the big bass was just waiting around to see if there was a spit up bait in the water. or maybe to see if his smaller buddy was caught (not). Either way 7 lb wins. That would make for an interesting adaptation. Angry bass, Bully Bass or both? Any thoughts? I've enjoyed all year underwater footage throughout the years.

That last clip must be the way I once caught two nice bass at one time on the same lure (a Rebel popper) in a pond in Ft Myers FL. One on its front treble and one on the rear. They must have raced to get to it and hit it at the same time. Fortunately the 8lb test held up, and I landed them before the alligator that frequented that pond, notorious for being drawn to fishing activity, came over to make it a three-fer.
@davidcrump23486 ай бұрын
Love the clips. I went twice finally and I did catch 1 about 3# on an Alabama rig. But didn’t catch it on the main hook. It was on the left bottom trailer. The big main trailer was a 3.8and the others were the 2.8. I had two with no hooks on top, two on small worm hooks on bottom and on on a 1/2 oz VMC head. But I hung on a large stick in the water the second time and the hook broke off the jig head. I don’t understand that it was not a real heavy wire but it wasn’t a big stick.
@alanrasmussen40976 ай бұрын
On that big frog fish, are you using a heavy mono leader or strait braid while fishing the frog in open clearer water? Or maybe something else? I plan on trying to expand my frog fishing a little this year and was pondering if a leader on my 65lb. braid would be beneficial. Love the underwater stuff, but it always seems to bring up more ?'s than answers. lol. Thanks guys.
