Academy Sports FISHING CHALLENGE with the lure WHITE BASS can't resist!

I headed back to the creek to test out a tandem lure I picked up at Academy Sports and Outdoors to confirm if the white bass run has begun.

Redemption....

[@DevonandJazz]

I’m trying to fish with you I can’t find no Bass

[@dcmak72]

I used to fish Jesse Jones back in high school.. I didn’t know people still fished the creek back there.. good catches sir!!

[@robertclifton3428]

That first fish was a yellow bass

[@swoodall5324]

Definitely ...and male lol

[@samE832.]

Is there a white bass catch and cook coming up?🤔

[@TheFishAndTrips]

I think that could happen...

[@swoodall5324]

Nice to see the H&H double was paying off. If you can't find those > tie your own doubles using two 1/8oz jig heads tied off on either end of three foot long piece of 12# Fluoro. Then attach a small swivel (use a palomar knot) about 10" down from the first jig head. Only takes a minute or two to rig up. I like to do that so I can throw one jig in white and one in chartreuse....helps get a feel for what they are eating. it is a very flexible rig...I'll even go with a 1/4oz jig head on the shorter drop, then a super tiny (1/64) oz on the second drop...in case they are picky about size...but can still launch it across the creek. FYI that first fish was a yellow bass, similar family. I've heard those called barfish too because of the very distinct lines.

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Great tips. Thank you!

[@1969LILJOE]

Well Well Well....he went back out and slayed the fish. Good catches. What a way to formulate and execute a plan. Tight Lines

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Recognize my flaws and correct them. Only up from here. 😎

[@MarvelousMarvFishingForLife]

Good stuff as always bro but I'm wondering why you're referring to that micro crankbait brand as a Salt King instead of Strike King? 😅

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Because I can't read.😩😭😂

[@swimking101]

Damm bro, you was killing them! Great video

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Thanks!

[@Mffl1014]

I fish for white bass and flounder so I think I can explain. Those anglers were using a double jig rig just as you would use when fishing for flounder

[@Mffl1014]

Obviously just down sized

[@rodneyg45]

You rolled up and started catching those folks fish 😆 🤣 😂

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Facts😂😂😂

[@MakzFishin]

Omg. Watching your video. And at the same time you said “it’s 3:56” it was 3:56pm. 😳

[@TheFishAndTrips]

The matrix....

[@juscatinround]

Gear makes the difference. Glad you figured it out. White bass limit is 25 but you probably don’t need to carry that many back to the truck

[@TheFishAndTrips]

25?!?! Sheesh

[@PuraSalAngler]

Not bad lots of action - I will have to try it - my tag name is PuraSal Angler which means pure salt or only salt angler so I’ll have to change it up 🙌🏻

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Never limit yourself with so many ways to make content. 😎

[@dustinwilliams6095]

You can’t go wrong with a strike king bitsy minnow

[@TheFishAndTrips]

They produced!

[@becknate79]

You can tie a tandem rig for white bass

[@TheFishAndTrips]

I'm too lazy for all that when I can just buy them for 3 bucks. 😂😭😂

[@Therealmontana52]

Reminds me of Rosenberg during white bass run plenty of action and ppl stacked on top of each other

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Where in the world in Rosenberg is people fishing for white bass? That small park by the Brazos bridge?

[@Therealmontana52]

@@TheFishAndTrips Berdet Rd and A Myers Rd off FM 762

[@Justdontreplybro]

My state im only allowed 3 hooks per line. I take sabiki rigs and cut the last 2 jigs off tie a barrel swivel to the main line and then to the main line of my rod, on the end where the weight goes on the sabiki i put a 5/16 or 1/4 jig head with a 3in swim bait. Weight and color changes for water conditions. Kills whites and hybrids in the ohio river. Catches skipjack too fishing for 3 species at once lol

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Super interesting. I've never heard of a hook regulation before.

[@Justdontreplybro]

@@TheFishAndTrips neither had I til the game warden made me cut my sabiki rig off.

[@philguerrero4380]

Get you some roadrunner lures. Small lures with a flash blade. I used to tear them up when I was in college in small creeks.

[@philguerrero4380]

Or a tandem spec rig. They'll work too.

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Tried one on the day before and didn't have any luck before I got snagged. I was saying how I never had luck with them for some reason.

[@darwinvelazquez2109]

Where is this creek located?

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Jessie Jones. You'll see the sign in the video when I'm pulling in.

[@j.mimoso4767]

Look at you now!

[@TheFishAndTrips]

I try I try. 😏

[@rammone5241]

That first fish was yellow bass, the rest were whites. When you get tired of these dinks, got to Livingston trailrace, get your $10 car pass at Browders marina, you can park overnight too and launch your yak which will get you to some good spots or the river for dead sticking flukes. TPWD gets their large females for their brooding, been going on for years. Lots of magnum sandies too, early to mid April is the best time for those double digit PB stripers that will pull you around.

[@TheFishAndTrips]

On Google maps trying to figure it out. If I launch from Browsers, it looks like I would fish at the top of the damn, which is terrifying because of they open the gates. What stops you from getting sucked in

[@rammone5241]

You plan on fishing in front of those gates when they are open in your yak would make for some epic YT. Actually you fish below, the dam but you have to get your pass at the marina to park. I don't recommend fishing in your yak if the gates are open. There is bend about a mile down where the fish like to stack up in March using 1/2 3/4 oz shad head style jig heads and 5-7" inch flukes white and pearl are good dead sticking, also get you some menhanden oil to lube them up, these stripers are from the gulf. One rod for medheavy and one med light for sandies .If you can catch shad they 5-7 inch are best. Find a video with TPWD lake Livingston dam and you will see how big those stripes are. It is worth the trip if you have not ever hooked up on a 20 lb stripe in you yak. Early at sunrise is best. A live 7 inch gizzard free lining will get them as the sun breaks. Daytime, use your graph and find those holes down river. Worth the trip.@@TheFishAndTrips

[@TheFishAndTrips]

@@rammone5241 I've been on Google maps all morning checking it out and it looks good. Going to definitely check it out. Thanks for the tip. When you say bend. You mean where the the river bends to the left at Yaupon St?

[@rammone5241]

You can catch shad at another place put them ice in one of those small lunch coolers, it will last a few days in the fridge that way you do not have to haul a cast net with you, bring a dozen or so, that menhaden oil will lively them up. @@TheFishAndTrips

[@VitaminDeeTV]

Do as the locals do! Works every time. haha

[@TheFishAndTrips]

We don't have to reinvent the wheel Dee. We just gotta put spinners on them.😂

[@VitaminDeeTV]

@@TheFishAndTrips lol 😂

[@josephcolunga894]

Glad you figured out the bait, now trim down what you carry and your back will be okay. Keep up the great work on the videos

[@TheFishAndTrips]

I can only wish on the lighter gear. Camera equipment can never be reduced and unfortunately that's where most of the weight is coming from.

[@robertintexas]

And you told me during that live broadcast that you weren't going to fish for whites. All of a sudden you're the white bass whisperer. lol. I also fished today near where you were, but in a pond. I Caught 1 nice crappie, but I believe we are at least 2 weeks away from a crappie bite.

[@TheFishAndTrips]

The horrible saltwater fishing has made me crawl back to freshwater. Rainbows can still go to hell tho. 😂

[@Slanginrodsfishin9999]

That’s how you double back right there💯…how good is that mosquito fan

[@TheFishAndTrips]

I've took it out a couple of times including my last camping video and I THOUGHT it was just BS, but they legit work.

[@TheCompound01]

White bass like a very shiny lure. Silver rattle trap seem to work good for me.

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Few years ago the first time I went here I used a small rattle trap and killed it, however the last 2 times it hadn't produced. EVERYBODY is using tandem rig with swim tails catching.

[@HoustonFishingFinatic]

Why not reel the line up some more instead of all that hassle lol! Give that keeper to the Asian mm bro!! lol good video sir

[@TheFishAndTrips]

Ultra Light rod, so no high sticking. 😂
