BIG Swimbaits Getting DESTROYED! Epic Underwater Footage!

We got the CRAZIEST Underwater Footage you've ever seen of bass eating swimbaits! These fish are SMASHING glide baits and soft baits right in front of the camera! We all love underwater footage of bass fishing but this takes it a step further!
If you've ever wondered if bass really eat big swimbaits, you have to check this out! The old adage that big baits equal big fish couldn't be more true!
You might notice that we were fishing these baits very erratically. This is not necessarily how we would fish these baits in a typical scenario, this was an attempt to draw a "reaction strike" from the fish in front of the camera. A slow, methodical retrieve is typically better suited for open water.

Hilarious when that bluegill was just sitting there minding his business and that bass hits the glide bait and the bluegill just turns around real fast and watches him get reeled in😂 "4:30"

[@muskietime]

Negative, Neutral and Active fish are all there ever are. Great videos showing how few are Active or Neutral. I have also found that if the Alpha is in an Active mode, all others will wait till the Alpha “passes” on striking. Also interesting to see how the hooked fish fight with their mouth open (if not pined by hooks). Thank you and excellent work.

Underwater footage, would never get old

[@carloscruz7317]

This is very valuable footage. Looks like snaps and twitches spooks them. Slow and sink and pause reels were more effective.

[@stpbasss3773]

Good point everytime one gets close to inspect it they get spooked if he twitches it when they're focused in on it.

[@FishingWithBIGD]

luv the underwater footage

TacticalBassin yes indeed

PappaSqually lol. There definitely was some huge gills in there

[@patricksmith8281]

Papa squally use bigger baits you'll catch bigger fish

[@skrewflanders]

Hell yes, the one I've been asking for!!!

[@edkelly145]

Fantastic. Sharp hooks for sure.

[@cgray1300]

Nice footage. Always been amazed how fast they can spit out a treble hooked bait

[@treytrey8214]

That's why super razor sharp hooks are so important. I use mainly all ewg treble now because when they grab they don't let go as easily In my fishing. I like those owner zo wire hooks and the Aaron Martens trebles. Gammys are good to but you can't beat those owner hooks for sharpness

[@penyuinsidestudios]

Very good footage 👏 👍 👌
