Overview - Super tough day out. Snell's is known for producing trophy bass. One of my buddies hooked into a 8-10 lb bass in July and of the 5 subscribers at the tournament I talked to who had practiced at Snell's this month, each caught at least one bass in the 2.5 - 5 lb range.
Lots of dinks in the 6-13 inch range caught with about 6 fish in the 14-14.75 inch range caught (heartbreaking :P). 90% of the field was throwing wacky rigged and texas rigged senkos in the first and second ponds.
I got to do a few hours of fishing myself when I wasn't walking around checking for fish to weigh-in. I hooked into a solid 2 lber on a frog but attempted a full force frog hookset on my 10 lb braided line (epic fail on my part). My line shattered and the irritated fish jumped two in the water trying to dislodge the frog from its mouth. I ended up catching 10 bass in the 4-12 inch range, most of them caught on 4" and 5" GY wacky and texas rigged senkos with a few coming from a 3" BPS stickworm on a drop shot rig.
The tournament looked grim with no fish weighed in at 3:30 (tournament ended at 4:00). When all hope seemed lost, Wenjun hooked into a stud fishing a senko around the only island on the main pond. She didn't arrive at the tournament until 1:00 pm, but she came at a good time because the wind picked up around 2:30, moving the baitfish through the bottleneck created from the island and breaking up the surface of the water making it easier to fool the bigger, older bass in the gin clear water.

[@haziq2878]

Fun to watch!

[@itbeginx]

This is a really cool tournament lol

[@ZaygonHD]

Nice vid :) wish I lived in Maryland I live in Washington lol, Washington vids about bass r kind of hard to find and I found d one channel but they won't tell what they used and where they fished because of non catch and release people, I really started liking the senkos especially wacky rigging them they work so great but they rip up easily I just super glue them back lol.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

ZaygonHD thanks for watching, keep slaying em on those senkos! I use mend-it to repair plastics

[@colbyhutzell7327]

i definately have to make the next one,looks like alot of fun.

[@stefanwrd]

Damn , i love this channel , keep it up

[@fromdabankfishing2357]

Well done, again, Michael. Looked like a great turn out. Tough fishing conditions. Sorry that I could not make it. I will try to make the next one. Great Job.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

Fromdabankfishing thanks John! Had a ton of enthusiastic anglers out there, no problem hope to see you at the next one!

[@RealAmericanCitizen12]

Great video. Really enjoyed it.

[@blakemiller9037]

[@keokimcgowan9335]

Do you think you will be doing one of these tournament out in florida and if so when?thnx fam👌🏼

[@masoncontreras4846]

grate video dude! i wish they do the same thing here in ga!

[@fishingempire8636]

Awesome video, looked like a great time!

[@michaelhinde2329]

I've always wanted to fish in one of your tournaments but I live in Florida, the next time you come to Florida could you host a subscriber bass tournament if you would that would be amazing man👍🏻I really like your videos

[@TeamWagy]

Just a tip, dip your board in the water and the fish doesn't stick to the board, but slides easier; making your measurement more accurate.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Team Wagy thats a good idea, thanks for the tip!

[@lynoj777]

This is nice. You should do this again at loch raven reservoir.

[@cityboyfishing650]

You should make a fishing trip to ontario canada great LMB and SMB here ad well as northern pike, muskie, crapie, walleye, and all kinds of others

[@FlippinBass101]

Got that lucky drawing!

[@gageking6705]

I love your videos you're the best

[@SetthehookFishing]

p-line Shinsei Leader, not shinsui. Looks like a fun little tournament!

[@ZaygonHD]

Another question, like how did u get so good I bet if you go to any lake in the world you will catch a fish I'm serious on your tackle bag vid you had a paper about different water temps what works on them I need that kind of thing you agreed and disagreed about some of it, I watch vids and all that they help me more but I need to break it down so I really feel confident your how to help a lot keep making more of them like on every lure so people and I could understand keep it up thanks for answering he comments

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

ZaygonHD I've been bass fishing for over 10 years so I have a lot of experience xD Thanks for watching, lots more how-to vids to come in the future to help you learn different baits, stay tuned :D

[@fje137]

Awesome work , keep it up !!

[@TTGOz]

I've been t-rigging a bunch of plastics lately and nailing some bass... but I keep having to skintag over and over after every cast because the hook keeps exposing and falling out of the skin tag. Do you use mend it to fix that issue or do you not have that at all after a few fish atleast ?? Thanks.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Braden Nielsen I definitely get that issue, I'll re-adjust the hook to skin tag a different portion. Then I'll re-rig the bait sideways or backwards at different angles if I feel it won't hurt the action too much. After you catch a few fish you'll need to pull out a new plastic though

[@sixstringer2627]

awesome stuff you're doing dude keep it up!

[@loganhudson9928]

nice vid as always.wish I could fish this tournament but I live in texas

[@anthonytito_irieruiz756]

[@yanglers6219]

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

+Yanglers haha I'll def try to host one there in the future!

[@LakuHina]

let me know if you're ever in the southeastern wisconsin area during summer. I'd love to go bassing with you bud.

[@jones112b]

@1Rod1ReelFishing What camera are you using a GOPRO?

[@shanemarshall114]

you should make a vid like the 1ft pole 1hour fishing vid but with that gun fishing thing on that tv commercial i think alot of people would like to see that and it would be fun to watch

[@blakesimons8182]

Good video I like your tournaments you should have one in texas

[@addisondove9709]
