Its amazing to watch the defensive patterns change as the video progresses. In the beginning the smaller bass is totally focused on protecting the larger bass. By the end of the video the smaller fish has lost control and is just staying out of the way and the Monster bass attacks any swimbait that comes near its bed!

Anglers often over think their fishing but this is one time that I think we underestimate bass. There is a lot more going on during the spawn than we realize. From the surface of the water the concept seems simple but when we take an underwater look at the spawning process its amazing how many layers there really are to the bass’ behavior.

Its clear that blanket answers like “just throw white” or “catching spawning bass kills their nest” or “fishing during the spawn is cheating” simply aren’t accurate. Every bed and every bass is different. With a little patience and a lot of studying you can quickly analyze each fish and change your approach to become a much more effective and efficient bed fisherman.

  1. Very good video. Awesome to see what is really happening during this time of the year. Love to bed fish for largemouth bass but I never keep them or any largemouth for that matter unless it’s going on the wall.

  2. Bank Fishing at falcon lake ( in Texas) back in 2012 I saw what looked like a 12” bass going around in circles, (what a fish does when it’s dying) the second time around he came up to the surface, this huge bass came to the surface right beside the dying fish and grabbed him by the head and took him underwater. I still remember that picture when that huge bass came up to the surface, he had to be every bit of 30 + inches long.

  3. I spent over thirty minutes trying to hook a bass on a bed even using a exposed hook on a red slug go the bass would hold it in it's mouth and i could not hook the sob. It was crazy

  4. I don’t believe that’s the same male fish because the original male has a white spot on his left side near his tail and the fish that come to the bed after the catch does not have that white spot.

  5. The bed was protected by the female.
    28 secs is good and never happens, normally you take pictures or takes time to unhook etc.
    Not sure why you try to justify catching bass during the spawn…its too easy, and yes it harms them.
    Canada has laws for these very reasons.

    It is NOT a misunderstanding. There are plenty of videos showing bluegills eating the basses eggs.

  6. Thank you for the awesome underwater video….so much to gain and understand…watching them both avoid the hooks does say alot about their intelligence rather its remembering what has happened to them or just natural instinct something isn't quite right about that meal…..or if it wasn't spawn time would one of them inhaled it sooner

  7. Dude just add some comic into what she may have been saying to him when he was just sitting in the background looking…she even bit him once because she was tired of telling him "are you going to man up and get this SOB out of here? Oh weeee!!! I can't stand your chicken a$$…" LOL!!!

  8. Thank you for all this under water footage. I have learned so much about behavior and how they like to go after the bait. Especially during a pause or drop. Appreciate you guys🙏🤘🎣🎣

  9. Awsome footage, this was my 1st season finally off the bank in my kayak. I bought a feel free moken 10 lite, with a side mounted transom, and new 2.5 Suzuki outboard. I've learned so much from you guy's. I fish a 900 acre lake, and do other trips. Thanks for the fishing, tips, baits, most importantly how I was using them..
