How to Catch Bass on a Live Bluegill by 1Rod1ReelFishing

[@Luke-bz8fr]

Great job on that gut hook. I'm really impressed. No stress for the fish.

[@ryderpollock1600]

he is really good

[@narlee2014]

Nice job going through the different ways to place the hook in the Bluegill! Did a great job supporting your friends that were fishing and making it a great time for everyone.

[@pisithmankhong9455]

Hey man your I knew a lot of people would be into your channel. The other day I met someone fishing at a pond that also watches your videos! I also caught a 2 lb. 12 oz. Largemouth!

Hey man, just wanted to to say keep up the good work! I really enjoy your videos and they put me in a good mood, they also make me want to get a line in the water when ever I can!

[@chandler1122]

This is why I like this guy because he always makes sure the fish wouldn't be harmed. Subbed

[@assholebynature888]

Yep hes not like the others that chuck them into the water.

I want to go fishing and If you're in Michigan at this time of year you know how I feel

[@Briguy1027]

Wow, you're like an ambassador for the sport. All these kids feed off of your enthusiasm and go fishing with you. And you don't have to worry about licenses for them because they're obviously less than 16 years old. Kudos!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Briguy1027 thanks for the support, I love promoting the sport as much as possible!

[@ivanvillegas4640]

I hate how the turtles get attracted to bobbers

[@anthonyvalenzuela8108]

Ivan Villegas And it wouldnt happen if dumbasses didnt release their turtles. Their called red eared sliders and are the most popular pet turtle. Cuaght me one last year on a beef frank and spent 30 mins returning it too a petco.

[@TheGolem105]

Fuck Yeah Merica Screw Liberals Why would you bring it to petco out of all places. It probably already dead by an irresponsible owner or the uneducated staff of that slaughterhouse

[@anthonyvalenzuela8108]

Crocs Are Cool Better then fucking up the environment for all the other animals at the natural lakes. The turtle owners have the choice of saying "Fuck you" to all the fishermen, and probably killing several panfish becuase of food shortage, or having their lazy asses take the 5 minute drive and give him to someone responsible.

[@thestarofallstarschampiono9482]

That happens to me alot

[@mercure36]

Ivan Villegas same

[@biddyboo8]

These panfish (bluegill, pumpkin seed, etc) are the secret to bass fishing. Take a good size one and cast it out, bass in minutes. One time I was standing in the water and dropped the line literally right in front of me and a MASSIVE bass came and took the bait right off the line. The second best is yellow perch.

[@SYMFEO]

sunfish or bluegill will bite on anything...u could bait your line with dog shit n still catch them lol

[@wildboar1188]

Caught one on 5 gum and juicy fruit

Thanks to this video I tried this with a tiny yellow perch I caught by accident. I hooked it though the nose and dropped it in an area I knew a bass was hanging out but I couldn't catch. 30 seconds later and I had a 5lb bass (which is fairly big by northern New England standards.) Thanks for sharing!

[@Dodgingbullets1137]

What part? Im from connecticut. im also pretty sure that its illegal to use perch since they are a game fish.

[@guitardudebanjoman]

+Dodging BulletsHD Western Maine. And did I say perch? I meant I pulled up a discarded crankbait that looked a lot like a perch and used that. ;)

[@JwhFishing]

you boys need to set the hook earlier

[@calstefanko614]

+JwhFishing Probably a good idea

[@AidanFordFishing]

+JwhFishing Nah man you gotta wait. but you can't wait too long.

[@JwhFishing]

they waited to long gut hook

[@0carbothecat0]

+JwhFishing I do agree setting the hook earlier is a good idea, but it is really tricky. The bass will hesitate if the bait jerks too early, so setting the hook requires a second or two of waiting. Bass won't gulp the fish immediately in some cases, too, so that always takes a second. It makes sense to wait for a few seconds so the bass swallows, but as a fisherman and myself, I honestly would rather appreciate the bass in the water rather than fish for them and harm them in the gut. I love fishing, but dangerous fishing like this that has high chances of great damage isn't always fun. That's the worst- when you're only catch of the day ends up swallowing the bait and you end up killing it when you try to save it.

[@joshandkorinna]

Yea they're definitely waiting too long to set the hook.

[@ryanlarson6474]

This is random. I'm looking back at the fish community on KZbin and realized you really deserve your subs. These others guys post like 1 a week, if that. You are a frequent uploaded and it's fun seeing your vids pop up every few days. Keep it up!

[@joshuacarraso-lm7ni]

Rigging bluegill through the back near the spine, helps it to swim freely in if you can catch the ones that are small enough, the bass can just swallow it whole

[@mistakesaremadequietoften.2896]

[@infowazz]

i grew up by a neighborhood lake where few people fished up in buffalo ny area. suburbs, it was idyllic. for years the biggest i caught was maybe 2 lbs. then one day a huge one jumped in a shallow area and after 50 casts i caught it. it was 6 lbs. after that we caught the big guys regularly. as if it was in our minds. really. the best lures were always topwater, mostly artifical frogs and buzzbaits. sooooo much fun. if u used little sunnies like this then it was guaranteed a good time. one day we found a dead catfish. that was crazy because we never saw a catfish ever, after maybe 10 years of fishing there. there was a carp (maybe the only carp) that had a white top to it. we called him moby. there was a huge bass that hung out by the little dam. his name was harold. now people built houses along the lake and cut off access. but i'm too old to care now. i had the best time of my life. we also had another lake like that where the fish seemed desperate for a spinnerbait. as soon as it hit the water you got a fish. we were so fortunate to have that. can't explain it to people really.

I do this often here in Gainesville, GA on Lake Lanier. You should come fish here. Lanier is a premier bass tournament stop in the south. I catch spotted bass with sunfish that I liveline or downline. I'm still hunting some big striper from the bank.

+Shocker Repair lol :P

[@brent5142]

Another way to catch very small bluegill(2 inches or so) is to use a very small hook with no weight and and almost fly fish the line. It works to use either bread or even better small pieces of worms.

[@string_bean9015]

Anyone else notice the eyelids on Alex's pole at 3:58

[@armandobevard2]

Loved how you got the hook out through the gills !!!! Str8 up pro...respect

[@AttilaThebung]

Are gut hooks fairly common for largemouth bass? They seem like they'd inhale anything you put in front of them. Being Australian I don't have much contact with them.

[@holaybernourd2999]

+AnthonyH I think it happen, in particular when its live baits (they love bluegills) and they really want to eat them. It's the same with pikes, when people catch them with live bait, sometime they are gut hooked ! Plus , the guy waited too long to set the hook.

[@fishfreak2001]

+Holay Bernourd Yah, I have used live bluegills a lot, never gut hooked him. He waited too long to catch it. The bass I've caught with them are on my channel if you wanna check it out. But, anyways if you attend to your rod and as soon as you get a bite, set it,you should be fine.

[@fishinghuntingandknives879]

Not very common, these boys waited wayyy too long to set the hook. If you're using lures, it's really rare and even if you're using bluegill it's pretty rare.

[@adamjensen8112]

thanks for including notes on conditions and time of day

[@goodlife916]

[@bassbitesfishing]

hi

[@matthewjones1385]

one thing I've learned from using full live bluegill for bass it's harder to hook them because the hook has to rip out of the bluegill and into the bass

[@AHughes13]

Hey mate I commented on one of you last videos looking for some advice of fishing for yellow belly, but now I'm back in my home town of Gloucester Australia, NSW and looking for some advice on.... You guess it..... Bass fishing, So my friends have this very small pond on there property, about 300m around (so about half the size of the pond you guys were bass fishing in)and it just has a normal mad bank the whole way around it, the owns use white bread to catch them but I'm very in to the whole lure thing, I've already been out there for a totally of 4 hours and haven't caught anything, I've thrown lipless crank baits and a spinner bait with no luck, I was wounding if you might able to tell me some lures that might work better and also I don't the fish have ever seen a lure before so does that matter? I've watch a few of you how to vids but I'm still not sure on lures, but thanks anyway for putting out the amazing vids keep it up and if you could help it would be amazing Thanks

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+VKAR Basher in australia you need to downsize your baits, try 3" poppers, and finesse worms texas rigged or wacky rigged. Also try small crankbaits, good luck!

[@AHughes13]

+1Rod1ReelFishing Oh my God, is that really you????? Thanks so much man very much appreciate, ill hit up BCF and get some of those beasts lol thanks agian keep up the good work

[@TimVincent222]

I've done really well using some of the bass techniques such as flipping with creature baits and fishing spinnerbaits around 1/4 oz on yellowbelly. Maybe the yellas weren't on that day, because the other lures do produce.

[@AHughes13]

+Tim Vincent Fishing Hey man thanks for the help, i didn't really get much time to fish for the yellos when i was a way, i used a lip less crank bait and got luck with 2 red fin which were disposed of properly as they are a pest and illegal to put back, i had a spinnerbait but didnt get a chance to use it but anyway it was a good trip, but now im back in my home town bring on the bass 😅, thats if i can catch one lol

[@TimVincent222]

Aussie or US Bass?

[@fishfirlife5127]

My advice for using the live bait just free line the baits and keep your line tight so you know when you get a bite

[@helleye4745]

hey bud if you have grass hopers in ur area. take the Head off of the grass hoper, and hook the head on hook good to go for normly 20-40 hits/bites

[@stylz1]

Check your local regulations before you do this. This isn't legal everywhere.

[@TheFishingExperiment]

+stylz1 Yeah that's very important to do . It's the same here in Ontario. You have to check the rules first.

[@tlcphi2]

It's legal in virginia, but they have to be used in the same body of water and can't be store in a bucket.

[@bloocow353]

[@tylerhughes5420]

Seeing a lot of debate about waiting to set hook and gut hooking. The longer the wait the more likely you'll land the fish because it takes a bass a second to manipulate the bait fish in it's mouth so that it's swallowing head first. However waiting too long will result in a swallowed hook. Several things can be done to minimize swallowed hook. 1 use the biggest hook with plenty of hook tip exposure that you can reasonably use based on size of fish you're targeting 2 use circle hooks if possible bass and crappie have thin mouths so circle hooks often aren't ideal but are perfect for catfish carp and other tough mouthed fish. 2 use the smallest bait fish you can get away with based on size of targeted fish. When you use a smaller bait you don't have to wait long for the fish to rotate it inside it's mouth. 3 don't fish with a completely slack line. Being able to watch your line help to see when a bite occurs. The gut hook in this video was because of an unattended rod./ lots of slack line. 4 use the tail trim technique. Using scissors trim the bait fishes tail fin down to 1/4 inch then place hook through the flesh of the tail. This allows bass to eat the bait very naturally head first and so minimizes the time you wait before hookset. This almost always results in a hook through the nose or cheek of the bass.

This works great in late summer for me. I've seen 5 or 6 Largemouth chase them to the shallows. Sometimes I pull them out of harm so the biggest can eat them lol.

[@jacobparks3488]

What you need to do is catch some of the bluegill and cut them in half and then once it starts to get dark have a quarter ounce bullet weight and a regular hook and then find somewhere with catfish and cast up against the bank and just wait for the cats to come. I caught a 40+ pound flathead over the summer doing this

[@thebayoudiaries8389]

As a big panfish fisherman, I know what you mean when you say the bluegill go crazy for the bread!

[@iFishMNchannel]

Just to chime in on the hookset timing debate, personally I set the hook as soon as I have my pole in hand and am ready, you will find that the majority of fish will be hooked perfectly, and the few you do miss are usually small fish that could not get the bait in their mouth and I will loose a few small fish any day to save a big one from being hooked deeply.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+iFishMN yeah I think ur right about this, I never fished with bluegills before and after the gut hooked fish, I'll be setting the hook as soon as they bite from now on

[@sW1Zz3]

Another tip is when you have one on and you have hook the bluegill through the tail once the bass has it don't set the hook let the bass swim with it and make sure ur bales open and when the bass stops swimming that's when you can't set the hook

[@jack.m017]

you should consider getting a small rod for smaller fish,I remember you did a challenge with a 3 foot rod, that rod would be great for stuff like this.

[@corybeckmann8823]

It's kind of funny, the three biggest bass i've ever caught (12lbs 1oz, 10lbs 7oz, and 9lbs 11 oz.) were all caught on live bluegill while i was bottom fishing for catfish.

[@arthurfelice1850]

When I fish for striped bass we use spot which are about the same size as these blue gill u can prob extended the life on the bait if u hook it threw the top part so the bait can breathe better

[@deadlycuber4974]

My favorite bait for bluegill is $1.50 Berkly 1 inch minnows on a 6 sized hook

[@davidfletcher9751]

You can set that hook earlier. No need to let them choke it down, I set it like I’m fishing a EWG Texas rig and never lost one. Most hooked in the top of the lip.

[@iloveuu1]

I'm a kid and I'm happy with any fish

[@redneckninja0790]

Every time I go fishing in my lake, I will fish with whole bluegill but usually I will get my bait torn up so I cut the bluegill in chunks.

[@redneckninja0790]

Meant to say torn up by a gar.

[@trevmma]

what I like to do, and it works really well.. I set up the pole on a stick hanging over the water like I'm bottom fishing . reel in the line to where the blue gill is sticking out of the water just a inch and splashing like crazy

it's definitely a sure fire way to catch bass as well as live frogs but most states it's illegal as hell so be careful fellas as long as you exsplain this to the younger fisherman that it's not a good practice to do this but enjoy and glad to see younger guys enjoying the sport of fishing

[@daveco1270]

The problem with using live bait this way is getting the hook caught way down the fishes gullet...as we saw on several of these bass. It's not a clean hook up like you'd get with lures or even smaller live bait. Hopefully the fish were okay. Mike's pretty good at doing hook-removal surgery.

[@Jake-jj6ds]

Once my brother had at least a 8 inch bluguill on and caster it out and like a 6 or 7 pound bass followed it and striked

thats pretty cool you got some nice fish there buddy

[@topwaterking6543]

[@chewybear1528]

I hook em though the back and make it look like its dying and it works well around bluegill beds

[@glennkrzeminski7539]

I've never seen bass activate so aggressively for bluegill! I've never seen them respond like that in NY or MA - my guess is that you're down south somewhere where they grow bigger and are not intimidated by that wide profile. I HAVE seen bass be desperately hungry and stunted in golf ponds tho because of the limited structure which leads to a limited forage base - maybe bluegill are the only forage they've got.

[@kevindunseoutdoors26]

He's in maryland

[@chrisgarone349]

i use Bluegill's as bait all the time here in NY and they work wonders on any pond by me lol

[@glennkrzeminski7539]

Is it a very small pond where there isn't much else for the bass to eat?

[@chrisgarone349]

Its not huge but i wouldnt consider any of them small. As for food, they got sawbellies,varying minnows,blugill,perch, and ive found smaller bass inside them. It really all depends on the size of the bluegill/sunfish that you use. I personally only use ones less than 5inches in length. That way almost all bass can eat them, not only the big ol lunker one.

[@guylikesthings]

Once, I caught a bass using bluegill. The bass ate 3 bluegill. It weighted 6 pounds!

[@LB1280]

Another great video, Mike. Any idea what the coldest water temperature is for bass to still be active? I think the season is nearly over up here in CT. Temps overnight just started dropping down into the 30s so is it safe to say they're calling it quits for the year?

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+LB1280 depends on the water temp not air temp, and as the water temp is dropping I catch bass in water as cold as 42 degress. Below that in the 37-41 degree range I struggle to get bites

[@LB1280]

Yea the water is dropping pretty low about now. The air temp tonight will be 28 so I'm sure the water temp will be in the 30s. Do the bass head toward deeper water at this point in the year?

[@coryhall2672]

fish used to eating bread on top can be caught with a height sponge
