Thanks brotha. Haha I don’t think the manufacturer would approve of what I did haha 🤣 but I’ve had other rods bend completely over with no issues. It won’t be the last rod to break

@@CramersPage I've pulled big branches out with my medium light rod with no issues, this rod i pulled a gold fish out and snapped on me haha tight lines brother!

That thing was nasty 🤮

What’s up brotha.. I was kind of pissed when I got my package in the mail and the rod was a 2 piece. I was like awww f%*^ a 2-piece haha. I was going to use it for a damiki rig setup “medium light”.. I guess it was more “light” than “medium” hahaha ☹️😭. Sometimes when I edit I see things like this and ask myself wtf are you doing hahaha

Haha I broke two rods at the same time. I laid them in my truck door opening and the wind shut on my rods. -$400 lesson

@@CramersPage oh damn! That sucks! I got some rods you might like. 1 piece. Stealth Stixx. Check them out. When you coming down to OC? Let's go!

@@714_oc_fishing-CHF hmm 🤔 I’ll have to look up those rods. I’m trying to make it down in 2 weeks. Work has been scheduling me for crazy trips on Fridays and I haven’t had the time to drive back south. I’ll send you a message when I’m on the road. 🍻👍🏻

Thanks brotha.. I probably shouldn’t be wearing my hunting gear fishing haha

Haha that’s crazy to me. Freakin King salmon. lol there were a lot of guys trolling with downriggers 👍🏻🎣😎🍻

@@CramersPage that’s how we do it to. The kings are down 60-80’. There are kings in Oroville, Shasta and several other lakes.

@@theoutdoorcouple2022 crazy. Thanks for letting me know. I saw some huge marks on my graph and was tripping out haha

@@CramersPage there are a ton of big carp in Berryessa too.

@@theoutdoorcouple2022 hmm. Definitely a lot of fish swimming around. that lake is way bigger than I thought. I barely went outside the first turn from the boat launch. I need to do like a 45 minute cruise out to a different spot

Haha. Snapped it on my head. This lake is way bigger than I thought. I need to get way out there and fish deeper 🍻😎🎣👍🏻🍻🍻🍻

Salt dawg is down the road from where is fish in Arizona. Definitely a good bait to have for thick brush in hot weather. 👍🏻

Definitely going to have to drag a worm or grub through this lake. It’ll take me a few trip to dial in on what works on each lake out here. I’m sure it’s going to be Texas rig everything. Robo worm has come up a few times in the comments. Thanks brotha 🍻🍻🍻😎🎣

Had it on brotha. I was panic fishing and throwing everything this day. No Confidence baits right now. 🤷‍♂️🍻🍻🎣

You live in NorCal or Arizona?

@@CramersPage NorCal

@@Danxiong sweet. You fishing Melones Saturday?

Hmm interesting. I don’t fish much for other species but sturgeon is a bucket list fish for me. There’s techniques for fishing in Northern California that guys use all the time that I would use probably 25% of the time. I just have to get better with fishing out here. Time on the water is key. Keep grinding 🍻🍻🍻🍻😎😎🎣👍🏻

Thanks brotha. I’ll get dialed eventually 🍻👍🏻👍🏻🍻

What up Tom, I came up here to compete and I just need to figure out this place. Time on the water and building a new confidence will be the key. 👍🏻🍻🍻. I’m scared to click on this link and have it be some weird porn site 🤣

You’re a legend man. Thank you for the comment. I try to keep my videos real. I’ll keep the grind going and put the time in on these lakes. Preparation and knowledge beats luck every time. Thanks brotha 👍🏻🍻🍻🍻😎

“Lady you’re scaring us!” 🤣

Thanks brotha. 👍🏻🍻🍻🍻😎

Thanks brotha. It’s crazy to be so dialed in on a type of fishing (Arizona) and then move to somewhere new and have everything completely change. when I saw these grass lakes I thought Carolina rig and punching. Right now I have no confidence baits and I’m all over the place throwing different lures. I’ll eventually settle in on what works and be able to powerfish those lures. Time on the water will be the key to success. Thanks man for the comment 👍🏻🍻🍻🍻😎

Haha that’s what’s up. Thanks brotha 🍻🍻👍🏻😎🎣🎣🎣🪱

You’re a legend man. Thank you for the support. Coming from clean water to the delta is like someone dropped me off in the jungle haha. It’s definitely a dream to be out here and be able to fish in NorCal. The learning curve is going to be the battle. Time on the water is going to fix all things. The fishing community is awesome out here and everyone for the most part is supportive of one another. It’s awesome! I think I expected to move out here and light this place on fire… haha well California had other plans 😂. Preparation & knowledge beats luck every day of the week. 👍🏻🍻🍻🍻thanks brotha 👍🏻

Thanks brotha. I’m trying to keep it real and not do the KZbin fake fun voice haha.. I’ll figure these lakes out eventually. Just keep putting down the time on the lakes. 🍻🍻👍🏻 let’s hit up a lake soon

I’m being a pussy and trying to avoid the delta. Haha skunked too many times…..okay I’ll give her another shot Saturday. 👍🏻🍻🍻😎

@@CramersPage Understandable, that’s the delta though, she was shut down there for a few weeks, but now it’s wide open. Just remember, it’s mostly a crawdad and frog fishery. They will start chasing mow towards the fall. Drop shot and Senko are always go to fish catchers here if you absolutely need a bite. Just need to learn running the tides. Try and hit the high tide if you can. Always a solid bite.

@@baitchuckin a lot of the boats drive way out during tournaments. I hardly see tournament guys fish near a ramp. Sounds like the better bite is towards Stockton area. It’s a big place to figure out in a kayak. I’ll just keep grinding. It’s the only way to learn. 👍🏻🍻🍻

It’s crazy how much things can change chasing the same fish.. it’s confidence in your technique and trusting your technique. Right now I feel like a crackhead throwing everything and trusting nothing. The table has definitely turned but I’m out here learning man. Thanks brotha 🍻🍻👍🏻😎

Yeah some of these guys all they don’t fish one body of water and they’ll beat the majority of the tournament guys. I need to figure them all out and be good at everything… I’ll figure it out over time. No pressure 🤣 thanks for the comment

Haha I’ve been disrespecting them? 🤣 I’ll bring toilet paper next time

@@CramersPage 🤣

Definitely a new game. Theres a lot of guys up here that fish one body of water and will smoke people. I’m losing my mind trying to learn it all. KZbin can suck sometimes.. I’ll eventually learn to ignore these guys. It’s hard though man haha. Thanks brotha 👍🏻🍻🍻😎🎣

Hahaha made my day with the Tony Montana… 🤣. Thanks brotha. 🍻🍻🍻😎🎣🎣

Thanks Gary. It’s been rough but I’m sure once it “clicks” I’ll be back in my groove. It’s a different pace of fishing. Im use to burning the reel in AZ and up here the water is so dirty I have to slow down and fish a spot for a while before moving on. Thanks man 🍻🍻😎

Thanks brotha. It’s a dream to be out here and I’m getting smacked around. I’ve heard the same from boat tournaments guys. 5 years ago bags were weighing in the 30lbs range and now they’re close to 20lb -24lbs. I gotta keep grinding and learn new techniques. 🍻🍻🍻👍🏻😎thanks for the comment

@@beastieboy5020 are you fishing towards Stockton?

@@beastieboy5020 yeah that’s what I’ve been hearing a lot of the tournament guys are launching driving like 45 minutes out towards Stockton. They had kayak tournament 2 weeks ago and the top 10 kayaks were fishing from down there. It seems to be good the further you go inland. Have you seen sea lions down in your area?

@@beastieboy5020 total speculation..I think the sea lions have to play a role in the lower bass population. We had 6 sea lions down here during spawn and were tossing around bass. I think that’s why Stockton and the inland areas do a little better… iduno just a thought .. I’ll be down in your area this weekend or the next 👍🏻🍻🍻🍻

@@beastieboy5020 agree. The fish are there I’ve just never fished around sea lions haha. The last time I went the water was so low at franks I could barely get through with my trolling motor. If it’s that shallow what do you throw? There’s so much grass the majority of the area doesn’t make sense for most techniques. Everyone at franks is at the wall punching. Just seems like that area has constant pressure

Is that Clearlake area?

@@CramersPage yes it is. Clear Lake, lake Berryessa, Indian valley res, and my lake Hidden Valley Lake. This is a good place to get your fishing mojo back!

@@theoutdoorcouple2022 I’m saving clear lake for a couple day trip. Ive heard of that place since I was little man. It’s a Dream to step out there man.

@@CramersPage by far the best months to be on Clear Lake are mid July through October! Post spawn fish smash a 6” Senko neko rigged, swim bait and top water, frogs etc. August the bass move to docks and willows and it’s the drop shot and chatter bait. Sept and Oct I throw spinnerbaits because I love spinnerbaits! The winter months are good I hear, but they have always kicked my ass.

Thanks brotha 👍🏻🍻😎

Thanks brotha. Arizona to NorCal is a different world of fishing. I gotta map these lakes and dial in on these bass. 🍻👍🏻👍🏻😎🍻🍻

First person to notice that.. 🍻👍🏻👍🏻

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️I don’t know what you’re talking about hahah 🤣. I’ll see you out there 🍻🍻😎

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️😎🍻🍻🍻

There’s some big ones in that lake for sure. DD is amazing man. Life goal for a lot of people. 👍🏻👍🏻🍻🍻

No way.. what’s up man. It was nice chatting with you guys. I kept hearing you guys catch fish and yelling at each other haha. Good times. Nice place to fish but the boat inspection is crazy. Im sure I’ll see you guys out there again. Thanks for the comment brotha. 🍻🍻👍🏻😎

Drop the spot !

Thanks brotha. 🍻🍻👍🏻😎

It’s “Struggle city” out here man. Completely different fishing than Arizona. It’s going to be a challenge for a while trying to figure out these lakes. Haha my GF thinks she’s cute commenting on my videos. 😂👍🏻🍻🍻

@@CramersPage you’re just catching all sorts of things out there in NorCal haha!

@@freeagentangler5159 not good enough for tournaments

Nope!!!!

This was a good spot man… thanks for the hookup. I had to sneak out and clear my head on this trip. We’ll hit this place up when you’re free 👍🏻🍻🍻

Sounds great and looking forward to it. I will hit you up soon

There’s good fish out here man. It’s a struggle learning how to fish out here
