Every year @phytobedo and I go on an EPIC fishing trip. This year He caught what is the biggest punching fish I’ve ever seen flipping heavy cover – matted floating vegetation – with a big tungsten weight. Flipping mats is a process of getting your fishing lure like a soft plastic creature or craw bait through super thick and heavy cover into the canopy or hollow section where bass hide out for heat and cover during the spring. Using really stout long fishing rods and braided fishing line the fish react to the fast fall of the lure and the battle to get the fish out is insane! Probably one of my favorite ways to fish and one of the coolest techniques to catch bass in late winter and spring.

If you love Bog make sure to LIKE this VID!
Dude, the second we got that thing in the boat was pure joy. As a grown man, you don’t get many moments of that pure, kid on Christmas morning excitement, but that was it!!
I love the music you added, that really added to the build up.
Until next year my friend!
Bog is always the star of the show! Love that Bog!
What ratio do you like , I assume 7 :3
Absolute tank! Great atuff
Man that was a nice fish.
New Jersey’s record is 10.14, if that was up north I would’ve passed out. I caught a 7lber looked half its size lmao 😂
Dude that intense music along with it – lmfao

Love your videos as much as your sense of humor.
Hey Mikey how long ago was this filmed you said it was cold?
We've all got that one friend that just makes fishing that much more fun.
That’s epic man…… That’s a long way to bring a fish through the nasty stuff!
Incredible 👏🙌
Piggun
Nice dude
I wish Hartwell had mats. We have a lot of grass though. My personal favorite to flip. Lets #FishThroughIT this covid thing, and try to get up for real.

that was awesome man
I think our team could run across those mats!!!!
Those mats and the great fishing associated with them are why the FWC needs to stop the spraying. If I had to venture a guess I would bet those mats are no longer there.
That makes me feel all tingly in a silly place. Wow
Bass city boys back alright!!!!!!!!
Dude how do you make punching seem so easy?
wow ! awesome !
Congrats on a new PB! She was a beast. Great video! Your turn Mikey!
Im just impressed he got that big girl on top of the mat.
WOW, Great Catch !
Punchin some mats and getting some FATS!
Your buddy might of caught the HAWG this time but MikeyBallz still the GOAT!🤙
Does Mikey remind anyone else of Mike iaconelli?
Blows my mind that your partner in crime got the beast on top of the mat! Epic for sure!
Wow 🤩💪🏻🎣🐳🎣
Awesome vid boys. What size hook/type are you running on the cricket? Also did you see the video of that 49 lb limit on rayburn during the Texas team trail. Wild. You and your boy, them two guys in Texas, and topwater Charlie are the only 3 such limits I've ever heard that big. My best 5 in Washington State went 34.7lbs. A far cry from 49.
Fun to see Bog start runnin’ when you start reeling like crazy…he knows there’s a lick comin’ up…lol
Congrats great fish
