[@davidv5492]

2 years ago I started fishing. I could never catch anything but bluegills with worms until I watched 1 of your videos on how to retreive certain baits. The next day I caught my first bass on a crank bait. There's many people doing fishing videos that I've learned from but I'll never forget that first bass that you helped me catch. Just wanted to say thank you and keep up the good work.

[@InformativeFisherman]

+David V That's awesome, thanks bro!

[@BRExteriorPro]

David V yep by far the best KZbin teacher no joke . he explains everything very detailed and helps me understand it .

[@captainobvious3317]

First I want to say I enjoy this channel a lot. I just can't recommend more than 2 rods for bank anglers. You'll add at least an hour of fishing time not having to constantly pick them up as you work the shoreline.It's also a LOT easier to walk through brush and weeds with 1-2 sticks. One bait caster and one spinning rod is more than enough. I commit to several tactics for each and stick to my game plan. There have been times I took 3-5 rods and I caught less fish and had a lot less fun. Being efficient and making the most of your time will make for a better trip.

[@cjo201012]

nice video dude definitely looking forward to part 3!!

[@windelov1]

I am a big fan of your videos! I am a self-taught fisherman, since my parents have no clue on how to fish. Just subscribed to the Trout box from LTB last night. I have heard very good reviews from you, and from others! Thank you for teaching me how to fish!

[@RDM-fc6rd]

Love it. Man you always deliver. You said something about part 3. Let's see it. Great as always. Ronnie. Texas.

+Bob George You're welcome Bob, thanks for watching!

[@gtag6647]

Heading to the delta today! Great content as always!

[@InformativeFisherman]

+Gtag Thanks bro!

[@sadhvacman7238]

Great video! Really hard to skip in most bank situations. Lack of elevation, trees, tall grass, bushes, etc. Right on about, changing it up. I'm so bad about staying with one thing.

[@frankvaldez2769]

Do you have a video on what lure to use in certain times of the year? This a great video here and now I'm a subscriber.

[@matthewjones9897]

awesome video thanks

[@InformativeFisherman]

+Matthew Jones Thanks Matt!

[@johnnyblaze2620]

Thanx Nick

[@ichphan]

Great tips and video! It would be nice if you list the reels and rods.

[@NsIX3]

Another great video Nick, lots of good tips. Nice biggin at the end there! I'm hoping to catch something close to that one day. My PB so far is 6lbs (dial scale)

[@InformativeFisherman]

+NsIX3 You will, thanks!

[@livebaitfishing5423]

having used mostly live baits and doing bottom or bobber fishing I am only getting in to different rods, reels, baits and lines. is there a true benefits to using the $300 reel on a $500 rod over an uglystick with a Shimano reel from any old fishing supply spot?

[@08alexnyc]

Nick, you NEED to publish a book....at least an online book! But until then, can you recommend a good read for anglers just starting out?

[@samehnicolareviews537]

Hi everyone, what is the best wobbler, lure for sea bass??? I tried Rapala sp-03, skitter pop not working, have catch fish

[@alexm7108]

"Hog On" lmao 👍🏼

[@DonOwnsYou]

baw gawd that's a nice fish

[@onedayatatime7592]

What's the brand of that frog you were using? great video

[@xk-modz_9616]

Hey nick are you going to be at the Texas bass master classics in Texas?

[@midwestfishen8293]

do u think it would be worth putting braid on a light action pole, for panfish??? like 12lb braid and a leader.

[@fishingempire8636]

Congrats with the first HAWG of the year!

[@InformativeFisherman]

+FishingEmpire Thanks bro!

[@robbiebrown4653]

How can i get around to fish golf c. Ponds. Whats the best way to get around the no trespassing and being kicked out? Should i just approach a neighbor in the area. Then ive got permission🎣💪

[@davidgreedy5494]

newish fishermen with maybe a weird question but, when do you know when to use finesse or say plastics opposed to lures or bigger frogs and stuff. is there a rule of thumb or is it just a whatevera working at that time of day

[@steveelliott82]

Hey there, just subscribed I do a lot of bank fishing and I noticed that you guys were far from the bank when or after you had your hook set. Is that just preference?

[@efface6264]

I only have one rod would putting on 50lb braid on it make casting chatterbaits cranks shorter?

[@castandchill]

nice vid , thnx

[@krazerdude2789]

those black and white nike shoes you had are sick! what model??????

[@tonyhernandez2483]

where is ur video on how to cast farther with a baitcaster Im only asking Cuz I recently got a baitcaster and new to it

[@Luxeee]

Question where is this spot located? I'm in the valley as well.

[@carlosgonzalez8910]

Its private pond in Atwater.

[@ryley5973]

When youre bank fishing on a lake or pond,I know youre suppose to cast parallel to the bank or near or in cover, but how do you know when to try casting in more open water? And what kind of baits would you use?

[@fishingwcp]

Ryley I would cast everywhere cause being on the bank u don’t know where the structure is hiding, could be anywhere, so cover water!!

[@ww3869]

What rods were you using in this video?

[@getstraight234]

Interesting 🤔 when I get pegged I tend to bite, mostly a reflex reaction

[@joegaines6749]

how did you miss the HOG? just kidding that was fun. good video

[@cornellgarland1182]

where in the valley are you fishing?

[@lucaswatson7610]

Park in my neighbor hood you can catch bluegill crappie and bass and catfish in this lake but I can only fish from shore and idk how to catch a bass from where I'm at

[@connorgillespie4245]

Lucas Watson fish the bank around the pond and look for beds once the water temp rises, I live in NE Ohio too and that’s always worked for me

[@michaelchappell5617]

where do you generally fish? norcal?

[@astrosfan06]

if she mouths the fist..you've got a keeper!!

[@30minforasn]

Spot in woodland? Or near woodland?

[@advanvang4356]

Where at? Nice fish

[@CBALLZ666]

where are you guys at????? I would kill to have a spot to bank fish like this.......I live in the central valley south of Fresno and there's not many places like this around here, if there was they'd be overfished and littered with trash........

[@oldbaldfatman2766]

Have you tried the Aquaduct? Lots of videos of guys fishing in it.

[@slashGNR5721]

Hey Nick. You said throwing a frog will work just about anywhere. I work at the marina at my local lake, and I was wondering. There's no vegetation around much. Its basically open water by the docks and then the bank. Can I still throw a frog, even without the vegetation? Thanks

[@fritzhound3547]

You can throw the frog. The fish don't always view it as a frog so there is no need to restrict its use in that way. I personally just view it as a top water lure and not necessarily a frog. long story short, no you don't NEED vegetation to fish the frog.

[@slashGNR5721]

+Fritz Hound Never thought of it that way, great point. Thanks for the help man. I'll try it out

[@carlosgonzalez8910]

Fish this property since 2009. Great family and belive it or not there is an area that is 31 feet in the pond. Put in alot time in this water

[@dreamschememut970]

I love fishing! I'm 14 and live in New Mexico I go fishing very often and go to Alabama to fish every few months and I never catch anything I'm trying all these finesse tactics next time I go (in a week) any suggestions? I usually try to fish for bass but I never get any so I go for catfish then I only catch tiny ones if any then I go for blue gill and catch 10-20. I wanna catch fish other than tiny breem, help! Oh yeah and I almost always bank fish.

[@mattm6737]

A senko

[@fishinginferno]

minnows, shiners, and gills for live bait but for artificial, ya senko's, curly tail worms ( Berkeley's powerworm)

[@garysavala665]

Try an in-line spinner they catch everything .

[@nickstahl6365]

Should've got a replica they look amazing

[@swain4000]

i need an awsome bank lake in southern cali. please help me.

[@jasonchen5162]

How do you avoid snagging on weeds?

[@thegamingfamily2936]

St croix legend xtreme!!!!!!

[@KingSharpeMan]

Those fish you're saying aren't big are considered big here in Colorado!

[@hookinncookinwithchrisandt1596]

Do you have any information on kayak fishing? I'm thinking of getting one but want to ensure I am getting my money's worth.

[@RWAnglin]

There's plenty of kayak fishing videos on youtube, just search for them. Best thing about kayaks though, you can get to where you can't go on foot or by boat.

[@lucaswatson7610]

So I'm from north eastern Ohio and I live right by a lake called portage lakes and this lake is fished year round by a lot of people I have a private p

[@albertballinger9122]

hey nick is this pond public? if so where is it

[@nickdaughtreybmx6909]

if you don't make your videos do long I would watch your videos

[@motodaddy9367]

your frog looks like a big fat tamale lol

[@InformativeFisherman]

+urbina No wonder they crush it, lol!

[@motodaddy9367]

+InformativeFisherman hell yea I love frog fishing

[@jimclonan]

Put the fish back in the water if you’re gonna talk; if you’re not keeping it, remember the fish is trying to breathe

[@jnewton33]

Why are you holding the fish out of the water so long. While you are describing the rig the gills and eyes are drying out. Even if the fish manages to swim away, it will die.

[@nicktyler8434]

Hate to be this guy but it's kind of keeping an idiot in suspense, you only named 4 out of 5 of your top fives. Hallow belly frog, popper, weightless senko, shallow square bill, what's number 5?!?!

[@InformativeFisherman]

+Nick Tyler You shut it off to soon, I broke down the jig right after that

[@turipz]

Nice work, but for videos that are intended to be informative and instructional - you use way too much unexplained jargon - if I need to stop your video every minute to google "bobber" / "jig" / "bobber stop" and so on - that makes your videos much less effective. Also - it would be really helpful if when you talk about lures, hooks, rigging - it would really help if you zoomed in on what you're talking about so viewers can actually see what a "Texas Rig" looks like without again having to stop the video and google it. Thanks

[@InformativeFisherman]

Oren Gmail look up my video introduction to bass fishing, it will help a ton

[@onedayatatime7592]

What's the brand of that frog you were using? great video
