This day was a grind, and I was exhausted!! I tried spin fishing and fly fishing, but after 5 hours, I hadn’t even gotten a single bite! But right when I was almost ready to give up, I decided to give it a few more casts with some shad soft plastic swimbaits, and, well… check out the video to see what happened!!! This video shows some awesome scenery around Lake Pleasant, Arizona, and a bunch of wild donkeys (burros)! Lake Pleasant is a super challenging lake to bank fish, but if you are persistent (and lucky), you can catch some awesome largemouth bass, white bass, and even striped bass!

Glad to see the hard work pay off! I’m an Alaska transplant trying to figure out bass fishing and it’s a different game down here haha.
Don’t need all your secrets, but was this up towards the castle creek side? Was thinking of taking the mountain bike out that way next weekend.
Enjoy your channel man, good luck out there! 🍻
Ho there Kevin, we are just back for a few days of hard fishing, lost a few beauties, it seems it was hard for you too buddy, thanks for the trip, thumbs up and greetings from NZ,, Tony.
Right on Kevin! Never retreat never surrender 🙌🏻🤠
Loved this video, Kevin! The catches were worth the wait! And the donkeys! So cool!
I can only imagine the thoughts when fish realize they are "hooked": "Let this be a catch n releaser…please please…let me swim away outa this…" 😂❤😊
Patience is a virtue!
Dang, that last bass was a BEAST!! Awesome scenery and footage… cool style of video too!
Those Donkeys were a sign of good luck! You kept fishing and wala! Nice finisher to a tough day of fishing Kev! Swim shads are a great bait for all bass fishing! 🎉 Have a great week brother!
