Hydrilla Giants? The Quest for Giant Bass at the Pig Pond
We’re back at the legendary Pig Pond chasing hydrilla giants! 🌿🐷 In this episode, I break down exactly how to fish thick hydrilla mats and pad fields for a monster topwater bite—from frog fishing and buzzbaits to dialing in open pockets and channels. You’ll see real-time strikes, multiple fish landed (including a 22.75″ toad), and learn the gear and settings I use (heavy rod, high drag) to win in heavy cover.
Expect clear, step-by-step tips on frog cadence, buzzbait blade choices (E-blade vs clacker), positioning, and how to work grass edges to trigger more bites. If you’re trying to catch big bass in hydrilla and pads, this Bait Breakdown will help you put more fish in the boat. 🎣
