@@justindooley600 I don’t have any trout currently for sale. I may have a couple for sale in my next batch but that won’t drop until this summer. My current batch of Hinkle Shad is about to go up for sale.

@@justindooley600 I normally charge market price at the time of the drop

@@nottofu3803 you absolutely could use these methods year round. However, especially on lanier, the techniques used in this video apply to late fall, winter, and early spring time patterns the best when the fish are in ditches and on rock points. I would change my approach in the summer or as the water temp starts to warm up.

I unfortunately do not have them for sale at this time. The hooks are good right out of the package but once they wear down I like to throw a #4 or #5 Gamakatsu hook on.

@@PHATBASSASSASSIN I use a a nrx+ 852C with a shimano bantam with 10lb fluorocarbon. It’s a fantastic combo.

@@1stJohn215 it’s tough when it’s 28 degrees!😂 definitely need to re-tie often.

@@jimglisson2568 good luck! It definitely applies. Let me know how it goes.

@@OneManGenetics I have another batch of Hinkles getting painted right now. I will have them up for sale soon if you are interested.

@@santosjusino8120 very soon actually! I have the next batch in. They are getting painted now. Hopefully have them for sale in January. Do you want to purchase one?

@@campetro10i do, where can i see this online

@@piltbike5289 i will post them on my facebook page. I will make a post on youtube as well once they are available that will include how to get in touch with me. stay tuned it should be soon!

@@campetro10 still no drop or anything and i’ve contacted you with 0 response

@@piltbike5289 just replied. Drop should be in February. Still waiting on the painter for the shads.

Nice! What tournament is it? I would start either on rocky points next to deep water cranking for a big bite or go to the back of ditches (less than 25 feet) looking for fish and bait in the morning.

@@davidblake5199 I personally don’t think I’ve seen a 10lber on lanier. I’ve seen a few that were 9s but probably not a true double digit. Have you seen any 10s? I know they are out there. Oh yes, I love throwing the big swimbaits. One of my favorite ways to catch them. I like the chatterbait idea. I have never thrown an oversized bait on a chatterbait

@ thank you for letting me know. No, I have never seen a 10 pound largemouth yet on Lanier. May have to go up the Chattahoochee or upper end… Try the chatter bait no skirt 5 inch white zoom swim bait idea it works I have four and 9pounds two at 9.48 trying to get that 10 pounder lol have a great weekend

Call it the Chatter Dawg😎

@@davidblake5199 i like that name

@@GReese722 very cool! It’s a fun lake but can be super tough. There is a ton of standing timber especially in the creeks. Some of them you need to be careful in. I would honestly head south towards the dam and try and catch a limit of spots. try to get to 10-12 lbs then go look for a big largemouth on rock or wood or out in the timber. That’s what I would do this time of year. Thank you!

@ thank you

@ let me know how it goes. Good luck!

@ Is there anything specific I need to be throwing I just plan to scope around shakin the minnow and drop shot for spots and maybe go shallow crank

@@GReese722 i think thats a great place to start especially for the spotted bass. i would definitely throw a shakey head as well. that is tough to beat.

@@cliff1422 no problem at all, yes this type of fishing is generally the best when the water is in the 40s and 50s. I have absolutely seen fish suspended under bait. The fish move up and down in the water column way more than people think for colder water. However, more often than not, the majority of fish will be closer to the bottom in my experience. At least for numbers or schools of fish.

@@calebhigginbotham19 the one and only! 😂 you know him?

@@campetro10yeah man thats a small world ! He and I go to church together at Grace in downtown Greenville and work on the volunteer team together he’s a great dude. Would love to go fishing with him honestly never came up that we both like to bass fish lol! If you are ever fishing down here and need a fishing buddy just let me know !

@ very cool! That is awesome. Y’all should go fishing! Do you have a boat and go fishing often? Sounds good I will for sure.

@@campetro10 Sorry man didn’t see your reply. I got a small Jon boat earlier this year and have been basically self teaching myself bass fishing and it’s been brutally hard. Iv gone fishing on Hartwell probably 20 times this year and have probably caught less fish than times gone out…I texted Tom and we are gonna get out there together sometime and see if I can get some actual help as Im just so green to bass fishing.

@@calebhigginbotham19 no worries at all. Good for you! That’s awesome. It’s all about time on the water. Bass fishing has gotten more and more challenging imo. Do you have any electronics on your boat? The fish on Hartwell should be moving into their winter patterns. I would be looking at rock and ditches right now. Hopefully y’all get out soon! Tom knows a thing or two about bass fishing😂

Not sure yet! Would love to but depends if I’m in town that weekend. Are you fishing it?

@ I am thinking about it! I’m about 3 hours from Lanier so I’d probably come down the day before

@@stevejones3339 completely agreed. I hope we are getting by a healthy largemouth population like Hartwell. Would make Lanier insane

it was back in May. tail end of herring spawn.

Very cool! That is the bait you want for sure but the originals like the one you have are difficult to find. The original Sebile magic swimmers are one of the best herring swimbaits out there. I think the Sebiles are better than the Berkley magic swimmer due to quality and the swimming action. Don’t get me wrong though the new Berkley magic swimmer catches fish as well and has some great colors. What color Sebile do you have?

@@campetro10 I have to find the original package on my attic to say exact color name. But it looks silverish/shiner with a chartreuse on the tail part. Now I recall exactly, I bought this lure right after Todd Faircloth won Elite Series tournament in 2008. Never caught a fish on it, it looks like new, I think I used it once. I also had soft plastic Magic Swimmers, but sold them on EBay. At that time, I thought I could catch/slam spots better on Vision 110. Now the jerkbaits are not working that well for me. Do you think spots in general faster reaction fish compare to LMB, the spots tend to chase very fast moving baits and largemouth tend to be slower reaction, lazier fish?

@@WarEagleTheBest that sounds like a fantastic color. you should hold on to that bait and throw it for sure! it will get bit. i agree with you there, i think a lot of fish are getting conditioned to the jerkbait more and more. it worked better for me 4 or 5 years ago. i definitely think both spotted bass and largemouths will react to a bait but the spots are way faster and thats why 9/10 times you catch a spotted bass on the faster reaction baits. they beat the largemouth to the bait if they are mixed together. generally though largemouth are more of the lazier bass

Thank you! I appreciate the support. I like the 6” for spotted bass lakes and tournament fishing. I prefer the 8” on largemouth lakes where I’m fun fishing for a big fish. I have tried both and imo the magdraft is head and shoulders better than both of those options. However, I have caught fish on all of them. I think the magdraft swims the best though for what I am looking for in a soft body swimbait.

@@applejuice-3341 it’s a cool fishery. How did you do?

@@campetro10 got a limit both days but the size was not great. We got there before the prespawn got good and all the fish were just loaded up in the ditches. Dude who won just scoped them using a glide bait in the ditches.pretty neat

@@applejuice-3341 man that’s pretty cool. Sounds like fun

@@ZachRamseyFishing it’s actually a fun lake😂 I enjoy fishing there.

@@campetro10 yeah it definitely has its fun moments

completely agreed. they are not durable at all BUT they work... wish they made them more robust.

been fishing and traveling! working on a few videos right now.

@@campetro10keep up the good content man! Love to see it!

@@ronniegarrison9354 hey Ronnie! Thanks for reaching out! I do not see a message from you on Facebook… could you please send another message? I will be looking for it. Thanks.

Very cool! February is a fun time on lanier. It will be winter time patterns maybe early pre spawn. Laurel is way up the river but I would head down bellow browns bridge if you want a chance to win. I have a number of winter time videos up on my channel. I would check those out for lures and techniques!

@@campetro10 thank you sir!

@@demboyzfishin1389 thanks for watching and good luck with the tournament! Let me know if you have any additional questions as you watch the videos.

@@campetro10 any suggestions on ramps below Browns Bridge to put in when I come down to practice?

@@demboyzfishin1389 depends on what side of the lake you are on but I would say vans tavern or Charleston park. They are both central lake so you could go up or down for practice.

25 feet and shallower for the most part.

@@BeagleFerretTime yes pretty close! Pearl white is the way to go. Catches some giants!

@@Zanehoward88 yep you are correct! All of the creeks are fantastic in the spring but that pocket happened to produce that day. It’s a good one!

@@campetro10 we camp there a month out of every summer but I’m going to try to get up there in the spring this year. I usually fish around home in Loganville in the spring but I want to hit Lanier hard next spring. Is the fall bite good there too.? I’ve only fished it in the summer.

@@Zanehoward88 very nice! It’s a fun place to fish year round but spring is wild. Yes, the fall can be a great time as well. The NPFL came to lanier last fall and had solid weights. It can be tough but still plenty of fish and big ones.

@@danmcmanigal1978 fantastic! Hope it helps for sure! Let me know how you do. I love Hartwell it’s a fun lake. October should be a great time to fish.

It entirely depends on the model that you get. For the 852 spinning rod it is perfectly balanced the 872 is definitely tip heavy. Wow those are huge fish! There are some monster fish in lanier. It’s a fun lake

Good to know. Do they swim well? I have never tried them
