Feast or Famine – Summer Bass Fishing (ft. ExtremePhillyFishing)



One of my best fishing buddies joins me for some mid-summer Maryland fishing! I actually owe Leo a huge thanks for what he’s done to inspire me to fish. If it wasn’t for him, I may have never even created this channel. When I was in college at Drexel University in Philadelphia, I didn’t even bother to bring my rods because I figured the waters were too polluted to hold fish. My assumptions were half correct, the waters were heavily polluted, but they held some impressive fish…

I never would have found out about these Philly fishing opportunities if I hadn’t stumbled upon Leo’s blog (http://extremephillyfishing.blogspot.com/). After reading about how a river I passed EVERYDAY on my way to class held over 50 species of fish, I went back to Maryland that weekend, grabbed my rods, and started fishing like crazy!!!

I went 2 years without consistently fishing (except when I visited home in Maryland) during college, and I decided to create my channel during my Senior year when I discovered the numerous fishing opportunities available in the Philadelphia region!

  1. the reason your losing your fish is you try to. reel it in to fast. you have to let the fish get a little worn out let hm run a little the reel run a little. let him rum dont just reel reel reel you will lose them if there a good size wear him out.

  2. I was in Ellicott City on the 19th and was planning to go fishing on the 21st at the Jonas Green Park. That plan didn't go as planned lol. I only wanted to go for snakeheads, I heard there's record breaking snakeheads in that river. You have a new Subby here.

  3. Hello, I do a lot of bass fishing in western Washington along the Puget sound, If you ever fish for bass in Washington Try these lakes… Benson Lake, Spanaway Lake, American Lake and most of all MASON LAKE. I have caught some nice bass out of these.
