FISHING FOR BIG BASS AT MARICO DAM! (Full Day on Riekerts Dam)

Took a trip out to Riekerts Dam in Marico for a full day of bass fishing! The morning started off quiet, but things got crazy when I hooked into a solid 1.85kg largemouth that gave an incredible fight (left the whole 37-second battle unedited for you guys).

I’m just a regular guy who loves being out on the water and sharing my fishing trips. I’m still a small channel, so every like, comment, and subscription genuinely means a ton to me and helps me keep getting out there to make more videos!

Drop a comment below and let me know what your personal best bass is, or if you’ve ever fished Marico dam before. Always keen to chat with fellow anglers.

Thanks so much for watching, and see you on the next cast! 🎣
