River Fishing for GIANT Bass: Cooking Tacos on the Riverbank

New August 3, 2026 1 views

This river has produced some of the best bass fishing I’ve ever had, so when the boys wanted to chase giant bass, there was only one place I was taking them. In today’s video, we’re hiking up shoals, cooking tacos right on the riverbank, ripping some Pokémon packs just for fun, and throwing topwater at some of the biggest river bass in this part of the country.

This is a full day on the water with the boys — part exploration, part cookout, part bass fishing trip — on one of my favorite rivers to chase giant smallmouth and largemouth on topwater.

If you’re into river bass fishing, topwater action, and days on the water that turn into full adventures with friends, this one’s for you.
