Ok Low Brow, you have convinced me. Got some Yum Shad from an earlier video…and bam 💥 finished sixth in our last derby. The best finish of this year so far 👊😎 Got to run and get some baits “soaking” for our next derby 👊 Thank you Sir 👊😎

Respect. Good job on leaving your spot without incident. Good video, I've never been a believer in scents. I've baught them and always leave them in the bag or shop. Perhaps I'll give them a try after watching your video.

Why is it that almost all youtubers have tackle up the wazoo, 14 poles, 14 reels, nets, every roll of line ever made, boats of a coupe of choices, yet no one can afford or at least bring a fish scale, and pease dont tell me you are so good at guessing that you dont need one, Most of your guesses, I would wager the farm on being wrong, just seems like a simpe and inexpensive tool that wouls aid in your video's

Start with conditions 🤔 Great advice…now just to remember it when I get out there 👊😎

It’s so true. Some of the biggest bass I have ever caught had the slightest bites. They just vacuumed up the lure and didn’t move. That definitely taught me to set the hook on anything that didn’t feel right.

I found trolling with spinnerbaits and umbrella rigs fairly deep works because of cooler temperatures down deeper.

Today I got 9 bass on my river. I got a Smallmouth, Rock bass and the rest Largemouth. Biggest was 16 inch Largemouth on a watermelon candy wacky bps stik-o. They been hitting 6th sense divine paddle tail swimbaits on a bps speed shad head, wacky rigs, shakey head, and a green pumpkin swim jig with a rage menace grub trailer rigged vertical like a bluegill imitation the most. Got some on crankbaits and poppers also last week!

I always get big bites with a swim jig in the Summer! But, I rarely swim my swim jig other than to retrieve it for the next cast. I have great success casting it out, letting it fall to the bottom and then using a series of drags, hops and stroking to draw reaction bites. Most times they take it on the fall even though it's only a 1' fall. It works great and catches them when other baits wont draw a reaction.

Nice, but how do you get those bass waiting at the end of the bluegill beds to bite after they've fed all night?

I use a shad color jerk bait or crank bait in mornings over long points and off shelves. Then is at slow Texas rig tube or creature bat slow and a curly tailed purple worm on a Carolina rig off the points or drop offs.

I mostly just stick to fishing in the evening. Too hot for me during the day.

I stick to flukes, top waters and Texas rigs because in the summer it looks like a corn field under water with how match vegetation there is.

I never had much luck with a jerkbait but I am trying to use it more. Caught some fish but I'm still learning.

Those look like some juicy spots! Just because it's not near the shore doesn't mean the bass can't use it for shade and shelter. Some of my favorite honey holes are offshore.

Awesome explanation! This really helps me figure out how to choose my lures! Thanks LB!

I been using a small spinnerbait near docks and caught a few crappie and some small bass. At least I'm catching something.

Thanks again for sharing good stuff buddy! Hope you have a great weekend!

I generally avoid thick grass because it's a hassle from the bank. Gonna use these tips and try fishing more grass.

Do you have a trick for getting those tough summer bites?

Thought you make your own stick baits!

I’m interested in seeing how you make your stick worms with salt. What plastic you use, mold, what kind of salt and how finely ground, etc. Have you ever considered injecting baits like the ones you mention in this video like the rage bug, craw, or beaver?

Definitely a good one! As you know, I love this rig for sure. Great vid!

Thanks for sharing the tips and taking the time to make the video!

I've seen fish hit an unpainted cedar plug that was freshly whistled. My grandpa told me about a 5lb bass he caught because he saw it break on a walnut that fell out of a tree, so he cast at the same spot and hooked it almost as soon as it touched the water

Reminds me of the "mojo" rig. I take 2 bobber stops and put a small 5/16 oz bullet weight or 1/8 oz in between. Adjust the weight to whatever distance above the soft plastic. Finesse worms on a 1/0 ewg work good. You could use whatever bait really.

That one is a must try.. I know for a fact the Waco rig works

Great confirmation.. I literally just thought of doing this a few days ago. Now that I saw your video, I know that it is a great idea. Not sure why I never thought of it. Takes the place of having multiple worm rods set up for different styles. Great information as always. Love your channel. Thank you sir.

Great to hear you talk about gut hooking. I close all of my barbs no matter what application i am using . I absolutely hate gut hooking a fish. A good removal tool works well with closed barbs as well.

I fish a lake that is NOTHING but grass, Lilly Pads and weeds. These things are 5 to 6ft tall. How do you fish that type of situation, where skies are sunny, temperature is about 75 degrees, in the middle of a low pressure system, and water clarity is only about six inches, or would you fish a drop shot or swim bait? Let me add water temperature is about 55-65 degrees, it's a spring fed lake.

Funtime fishing 🎣 good show

It's hard to keep up with all these new fangled and fancy gadgets you kids come up with these days.

Shhh about the stupid tube 🤫😉

A Carolina rig is one of my favorite techniques for water in the 10 to 30 foot range. You are right about gut hooking fish with it though. Gotta be careful about that.

Missile bombs d bait😂

I'm with Mrs. Lowbrow! Put a camera in a bait!!!

Thanks for more great tips! I much prefer dragging a big ole monster worm. Again, thank you!

That's a nice setup. Looks easy to use. I can see where that would work.

I have a lot of very thick submerged milfoil and hydrilla, how does it do through thick vegetation?

When it comes to the summer grind of bass fishing, which do you prefer: burning a crank or dragging a worm/jig?

Thank you for this. My wife and I love fishing but we only have space for kayaks and definitely not the disposable income for electronics. I’m hopeful that your tips will help us be more productive in the limited time we have to get out on the water.

So far they are shallow around rock in my river. I haven't gotten many around lay downs yet.

I will accept the challenge and let you know the results.

I love your videos and watch every one of them and take your advice seriously. I bank fish only and although a lot of your videos are from a boat, your advice works from the bank. Keep them coming please!

Mindset is definitely very important! Thank you buddy!

I do struggle changing lures! Thanks for more good information!

I’m still waiting for you to come to Texas and fish Lake Ivie. The lake is getting smaller every month.

Again, thanks for more good information! Appreciate you!
