[@girlfinfishing]

I love when they are bustin on bait. It’s like music to my ears. Great video! Looking forward to the next one. NEW SUBSCRIBER! 😎

[@BassRaider]

Nice man! Thanks for posting. That’s so cool. Happened to me once years ago too.

[@fishingwithair8727]

Great video Tom. That looked like fun. Seeing you drop the 2nd rod as you hustled to the boils was awesome. Way to go.

[@jimtaibi1107]

Great video Tom!

[@nollieheel]

That look so fun! Been going to Castiac for years and never seen a boil in person yet but always looking

[@JLTFishing]

Nice vid 👍

[@daver1824]

I’ve had my moments where the boils last 45 minutes so much fun 👍🔥

[@angelinamaravibrianjohnmar9844]

Nice 🏃‍♂️ Tom.

[@norcalmike95252]

That's a lot of fish tacos you threw back! 🤣

[@WhereWeWild]

Well that’s fun huh!? 😃🤙🏽 Good stuff. 👊🏽😎 I’ve been curious to try some striper tacos cause I never have, but I just don’t ever feel like hauling them back to the car and making a mess. 😂

[@TheWorstCAFisherman]

[@markskibo5159]

That screw works great, I never would have believed it. All the time was wondering , how is he keeping that plastic on! Thanks For the info!!!

[@dragsmoothfishingtv635]

Good job 👏 brother 😎🎣🎣🎣👍

[@Danielsanman]

Tom, are you still fishing? We haven’t see any new content. You doing ok?

[@raysoucy3160]

Can I ask, for the finesse C-Rig video, do you think a mojo bass rod 6'8" M/XF be good for that slow trolling. Thanks

[@darwinvargas5957]

Is the road entrance open?

[@NOTTApro142]

Good fish! What times do the boils usually start?

[@TomGoesFishin]

They usually only show up this close to shore first thing in the morning

[@NOTTApro142]

@@TomGoesFishin ok. Thanks!

[@darrenchannakhone4642]

Where do you get those centering screws from?

[@TomGoesFishin]

Both of my local fish stores have them as well as tacklewarehouse.com. Just search for owner centering pin

[@kirasuki2530]

Upper lake or lower ?

[@Daniel-se1cq]

Where can i buy a cheap fishing license? Anyone know thanks 👍🏻

[@buyjuance6043]

Walmart just do the year one 50 bucks ... Or like 20 for a day

[@liliamejia9292]

Can I rig it without the centering pin?

[@TomGoesFishin]

Yes, you can. But you will go through a lot of baits if you are nose hooking it. If you want to skip the centering pin then I'd recommend t-rigging it instead

[@Anakinchhiv8363]

Which part of the lake are u fishing at?

[@TomGoesFishin]

This was at the west ramp
