DO NOT STOP FISHING! Why Winter is my Favorite Time for Urban Bass Fishing

[@svttito8487]

Was there last week and caught a 3lb on a 6th sense glide bait! 21:27

[@thesouthwes]

Nice! Sounds like it is a pretty good spot!

[@LifeOfJesmar]

What’s the pond called ?

[@Carlosm02tx]

From the dfw myself I’ve had great luck on Texas rigs and ploppers

[@thesouthwes]

Nice! I haven’t throw Texas rigs as much as I used too. I can never find ponds with any structure in them

[@tracybennett840]

My son is 11 ..it is raining and 47 and he wants to fish!!

[@thesouthwes]

@tracybennett840 that’s what I’m talking about! He is hooked for sure!

[@CFJONROJAS]

I grew up in the neighborhood at that first pond. Have caught many 3 plus pounders all by that tree on the north side.

[@thesouthwes]

Good to know! I’ll have to go back there another time

[@tracybennett840]

Where is it? My son wants to fish today but we aren't good...lol. im.gonna buy this lipless lure for him

[@scottdebruin3651]

Jerkbaits have been working well for me lately. Glad to see you hetting some out there.

[@thesouthwes]

Thanks Scott! Good to hear you have been catching some fish!

[@bryancesena5989]

Sick videos bro simple but entertaining 💪🫡

[@thesouthwes]

I appreciate that man! Thanks for the support!

[@fortunesk89]

Going to be in the area at the end of the month and I am definitely gonna try to catch some Texas bass keep us updated

[@thesouthwes]

I should have a new video out every Friday!

[@repairdrive]

Feel your pain. Casted off my first and only Vision 110 a few weeks ago 😄

[@thesouthwes]

I think the upsetting part is that I had not caught a fish on it yet!

[@zerohourtv256]

I'm hoping to get out there tomorrow, temps supposed to be in the 50s. Down here in Bama, that's warm for this time of year.

[@thesouthwes]

50s is nice! That’s when I do well on Crankbaits. Goodluck out there!

[@TinyTex30]

Try fishing the Austin area! lake Georgetown has some monster worm gobblers.

[@thesouthwes]

I used to fish Austin a lot! I fished lady bird and some ponds in the area

[@GodGunsGills]

That first pond looks like Arlington

[@GodGunsGills]

I would have swam over to get that $25 jerkbait

[@ProVentAirDuct]

I went out today, they just restocked rainbow trout here at Lakeside in Duncanville, any tips? I just started fishing and started watching local yt here in dfw.

[@thesouthwes]

Throw a super duper! I’ve got a video on my channel where I tore them up on it!

[@downtowniberville]

Have u tried any of the arkie crappie crankbaits

[@thesouthwes]

No I have not. I want to get better at crappie fishing so I can catch and cook some

[@PabloSanchez-kq6zj]

Love the air freshener where did u find it at

[@thesouthwes]

It was a gift years ago! I honestly have no idea where it came from… it’s just a decoration now

[@JohnnyPetsCats]

i caught a nice slab crappie at the first small pond. Surprised there was one that big in there.

[@thesouthwes]

I haven’t run into a big crappie in a while! I’ve caught multiple 2 pounders at the second spot in this video. They would eat lipless crankbaits while I was bass fishing

[@IIamjj]

I hate bass fishing in the winter. Imo its slighty easier in places like flordia or texas because its still like 60s or mid 50s during the day. In jersey it's like 35 😭 it should not be that cold rn

[@thesouthwes]

Yeah the truth is that winter in Texas is not the same as anything on the northern half of the states. I have always wanted to try ice fishing though!

[@thesouthwes]

The other side of that is that summers are different as well. The days of 100+ temps run from June-September down here. I’ll take Texas cold over Texas hot

[@IIamjj]

@@thesouthwes oh yeah I gotta get down there soon. Ik the pressure can make the fishing very hard though because a lot of people around your area target bass alot.

[@Philliesfan876]

fr I can’t with these upper 30s to lower 40s. Finally getting some heat for a couple days but it’s gonna go right back to the cold.

[@duuyyy]

Where is this pond?

[@thesouthwes]

There is a link in the video description to my channel membership that gives you the location of all of the ponds I fish. It is called “The Pond Hoppers Guide to DFW”. Check that out if you are interested

[@GodGunsGills]

Coffee

[@thesouthwes]

Same here

[@JVBfishing]

I like neither

[@thesouthwes]

No caffeine needed! Keep it that way!

[@gigilara32]

That’s what you call winter fishing 😂😂😂

[@thesouthwes]

Hey it is December 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@GodGunsGills]

You don't get tired of fishing the same ponds?

[@Bassingtv]

Lol bro

[@thesouthwes]

Sometimes! I have been starting at a new spot lately and then I might try some old spots after that

[@kerseyf8246]

Whip out that yak again!

[@thesouthwes]

Man I miss the yak, but not enough to get it out! I’m on the second floor of an apartment right now and I store it upstairs. Once I get a house, I’m hoping to upgrade the yak setup and get into it more

[@kerseyf8246]

@ haha, I feel that man. I’ll be waitin for the day!

[@joseerixson1619]

Don’t be stingy 😂, where those ponds at ?? Follow you on Fishbrain lol
