500 Subscribers Q&A + Winter Bass Fishing (San Clemente Island) 🐟🔥

Today’s video is a special one. We officially hit 500 subscribers, and I just want to start by saying THANK YOU to every single person who’s supported the channel so far. To celebrate, I finally sat down and answered your questions in the 500 Sub Q&A I’ve been teasing for the past couple months. Everyone who follows me on Instagram had the chance to ask anything, and I did my best to cover it all.

After the Q&A, I wanted to show some love back to you guys with a fun winter bass fishing trip at San Clemente Island. If you’re here strictly for the fishing, you can skip ahead to 9:22 where the SCI trip kicks off. The bite started slow, but after grinding it out we found some solid action, epic fights, good laughs, and unreal island scenery to wrap things up right.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ *Featured Crew & Gear* ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Huge shoutout to the crew who made this trip what it was and kept the vibes high all day.

👤 Crew:

*Ashton* – Small but fierce. Always breaking PBs, catching new species, and stealing the spotlight while keeping the energy high. One of my favorite fishing homies and a certified fish slayer.

*Martin* – Basically a personal deckhand who also slays fish, cracks jokes nonstop, and always helps with bait and cleanup. Absolute legend to have onboard every trip.

*Keegan* – First time fishing with him and I was instantly impressed. Dude has insane fish knowledge and a true passion for the sport. Had a killer day, and I already know he’s going to shine even harder when we target bigger game fish together.

🎣 Gear Shout Outs!

*Manifest Bait Co* 🎣
These guys are seriously cooking. Manifest Bait Co builds baits with the goal of helping anglers actually succeed on the water. Their variety boxes are dialed with different colors and sizes for both saltwater and freshwater!

They even made me my own custom color called “Unripe Banana”! A yellow and green base with subtle brown freckle accents that stands out BIG time in dark or dirty water. Whether you’re fishing a murky harbor after a storm or grinding late-night wall sessions off the skiff, this bait shines when conditions are tough. If you want something different that fish haven’t seen before, Manifest is the move.
