Thank you for making simple that which I try to make complicated. I enjoy your method of sharing the information. Keep them coming.
Love your work!!
Google Pat Cullen Valdosta Georgia, nobody comes close to him catching big bass
Most underrated teaching YouTuber. Thank you for all the great content
My best days and biggest fish were on nice sunny days. I usually fish a Lake Erie tributary. Im gonna try the sun line tip this year for sure! I fish in the shade but also found the laydowns on the sunny side held fish alot of times so I just fish every spot that looks fishy!
Love the Bass Professor! He has taught me so much. I fish near his old stomping grounds and just finished he "Big Bass Magic" book!
I've watched all of Doug's big bass vid multiple times, learned a lot! All my biggest bass I caught this past year were in middle of day also, including my current PB was caught in dead heat of summer, sun high in the sky. No shade close at all. She was 11 lbs 4 oz
Steve, I primarily fish when it's sunny and, I have caught my PB's on bluebird days. I have not seen a significant increase when it's cloudy.
We do grow 'em big down here, lol! The middle part of the day is my favorite time to fish. I've always liked the hard lines and shade bright sun creates. I would love to get you out on the private trophy bass lake and see if we can get you a true giant!
Great video Steve! Well, I hate to break it to you but out here in California it’s not to uncommon for guy’s to catch 10-15lbs bass! That said, check out Butch Brown on YouTube… arguably the best big bass fisherman on earth! The bass he’s caught over the year’s will absolutely blow your mind! 🎣
Does anyone catch big bass after dark and are there any dedicated night fisherman
Great video thank you for what you do I am really looking forward to the silicone vs rubber skirt i make my own jigs for about the last 3 years mostly silicone main thing I like about silicone is you can get lots of colors but i do know rubber has its place at times.
Such a great video as usual!!! Thanks Steve!! 👍
One of the longest bass i ever caught was 30 1/4" but is was so sickly looking it only weighed 7#2 oz. Caught her on shade line at the end of long canal out by Walt Disney world. Clear blue culprit worm with a pink fire tail.
Nice playing and nice bass sound my friend!!🎸
Hey, Steve, pray u are well. Great info. Take care and be safe
Excellent Video Steve. Man would been nice to have a scale for that smallie, i been there lol.
Thanks for this piece of information. I always enjoy watching your videos. They're full of a lot of information that's very useful. THANKS.
