Back To The Basics (Pond Fishing)

Today we take out 1 rod with a Jig and go bass fishing at a pond. Temperatures have cooled down and we are working the baits a bit slower so I included everything from cast to catch without cuts so you can see how we work the baits.

That first clip is where I have been crushing them on the jig too!

[@justinpimentel8569]

Hey wondering what happening

[@chipseiler1766]

Perfect! That's the type of editing fishermen want to see. Start to finish. It works even better when the gopro is mounted to a cap on your head. (plenty of options out there) That way your hands and reel don't block the view. Keep the good ones coming. Have a great holiday season!

[@kingkev2718]

Thanks for this. Quality knowledge appreciated

[@darkreelaction]

Because of this video, I'm now gonna throw a jig at Lake Palestine tomorrow!!! Great video Westin!! Keep it up bro!!!

[@Fish_Swag]

I love your videos so much man! Jigs have to be one of the most fun ways to catch bass because the catch absolute tanks! Keep reelin' in them slabs! 🤟🏻

[@317TilliDie]

I love those bites when your least expecting it!! Always catches me off guard

[@johnjohnson5933]

Hey Westin you really inspire me to wanna keep pushing making fishing videos.. because of being on deployment I had to take a year off but hopefully I can start gaining traffic again this coming year keep it up man !!

[@repairdrive]

Just checking to see what was going on with the channel? Discovered this channel about 4 months ago and binged watched every video but it seems to have slowed a bit 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@clydemcleod350]

[@bass_stache]

[@tjrou2005]

Westin what is your line setup? Love the videos man!! I broke one off yesterday with 50# braid to 20# fluro leader at the eye of the hook. Wondering if I'm too light on leader or too stiff of a rod.

[@aidensoutdoors]

You deserve a LOT MORE VIEWS!!

[@joshwagner8468]

Hey Westin are you alright. I hope so. You haven't posted a video in a while. Haven't seen you in any googan squad videos either... hope your ok🤔🤔

[@theadventuresofgeneralhool]

Happy holidays! Enjoy your videos! If you're in north Texas, hit me up and let's do a joint video! I'd love to fish with you!

[@jacksonbrooks]

Are you ok Westin you have not been posting is some thing erong

[@RABassin]

@@JTM-666 me to man because his videos really are good. Could also be the thumbnails but yeah all the googan promoting I think he should just do his thing.

[@omalysiragusa9747]

What kinda of structure does that pond or body of water have?

[@samuraiguy777]

My pond has way too much grass to drag a jig.

[@lure_launcher5032]

I fish a pond with the a lot of grass and I’ll pitch a jig into the openings

[@samuraiguy777]

@@lure_launcher5032 the water is only 3 ft at most then a large grass flat ~ 2 ft. Even a swim jig gives me issues

[@WesMoran]

I like ultralight finesse jigs in those scenarios. Like the Bitsy Bug Mini in 1/8 or 3/16oz range. I typically throw a zoom grub on it as a trailer. You’ll find that if the grass is matted enough, you can work it on top of the grass and it won’t punch through and drag up grass. I also like a dropshot in these environments. Again I won’t go above 1/8 in weight and will keep it above the grass.

Can you say, honey hole! Lol

[@tonygrant5889]

1st! Lol PS.. need a damn full size contender 🤦
