Do you know when you have a "BITE"? (Fishing Tips for Beginners)

[@MrDrop11]

You forgot one. The weirdest feeling one. When a fish softly picks up your bait and swims right at you. Feels like your line broke lol

[@brokechickenwing]

youre telling me. All those times i was confused about me thinking i snapped my lure, that it was probably a fish?

[@jeffero80]

That's the sudden slack line bite that he talked about.ive had that bite happen alot while dragging football jigs

[@f804.de.ruyter]

Frrrrr

[@user-bo8ju3ck4q]

Means your using to much😂 there soaking it of and not getting caught 😅

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Great tips as always. To be a good fisherman it's 25% attitude, 25% acquired knowledge and skill, 50% luck. The 25 percenters are key to landing those fish consistently. With all that said mental adittude is key. I have been back to fishing since last year after a 12 year break. I never leave mad or discouraged even when I have zero catches with hours on the water. I take it for what it is,being outdoors in nature relaxing and having fun doing some exciting. Cause when you hook a fish and feel the fight no matter if you reel it in or not that feeling is addicting in a good way.

[@DEBOSFishing]

I agree, the addiction keeps us coming back. Fishing is something different for everyone. I just love the challenge of figuring them out and enjoying the outdoors. Thanks for watching!

[@azscout9071]

[@johnfrank8403]

Last summer I spent 45 minutes fighting a ‘heavy weight’ bite in the surf. Kept coming in, going back out. Had to be careful not to snap the line. Swore it was a skate or horseshoe crab. The fight ended and I pulled in - a whole pineapple! I have the pics to prove it.

[@juanjoseamador7614]

Final update: this little reel is the little engine that could kzbin.infoUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e . It performed flawlessly and was easy to adjust drag in the moment while I was battling a 35lb bat ray behemoth. Mind you, this reel is spooled with only 25 lb braid and 25 mono topshot. It's paired with the kastking telescopic heavy power rod and the two work well together. This has now earned my respect and confidence when traveling and fishing. If you have ever hooked into large rays and sharks, you know they pull extremely hard and can run forever! This thing clamped down on the fish and was easy to adjust during the fight. It has a nice decently fast retrieve as well. Twice the fish went on mad runs and I was able to gain back line quickly to avoid spooling.

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

Too funny! I just watched a video where someone left a snarky comment about their long winded intro. Then you do it. Too funny. Oh, and thanks for showing videos which apply to us 99% who don't go fishing in 50K$ boats pulled by 70K$ dollar trucks using 400$ reels on 700$ poles. (and yes, those prices do exist - I know from shopping). Most of use basic equipment we can afford - from the shoreline.

[@johndoe-pb4mv]

On the wood tip.... then your lure gets stuck 1 feet away in the wood at 2 feet deep, its 33 degrees out and you watch your 10 dollar lures slowly melt away from your grasp. haha. Happened to me yesterday. I went in the water... it was only a 1/2mile walk back to the car, in wet shoes and pants.

DEBO'S Fishing I'm brand new to bass fishing I use to fish for trout when I was younger so I have a general idea about something's I decided about a month ago or less that I wanted to go catch my first bass and so I watched some videos went out and cought my first bass by myself I was stoked then I tried a new pond and got another bass now I'm hungry and wanna know what are the best tips u would give someone who's new to bass fishing

[@BassWhoopinFishingTeam]

Or Nessy

[@biggiecheese8175]

@@laneshirley3706 i know im not the one you wanted advice from, but I live right next to a fishing resort, and the best thing i can say is find out what the bass prey on. In my case it is usually bluegill in the summer, then shad in the colder months, and crawfish in spring. Once you match the lure to what they are feeding on at the time it is easy to catch one. Another thing i can also say is patience, ive gone 2 hours with out a bite at spot i know is good, then out of no where BOOM got smacked by an 8 pounder and got my pb

[@PastorG16]

Great tips for the beginners. Even we experienced fishermen still catch fish-sticks.

[@DEBOSFishing]

[@danieladame8595]

I have to say that I absolutely love watching your videos! I’ve been fishing all my life and I still find that I learn something every time I watch one of your videos even if it’s something I’ve already learned before. What I mean by that is that sometimes you forget some of the basics or you develop bad habits. Your videos often remind me that maybe the way I’ve been doing things are not always the best way and getting reminded through your videos of those basics helps me to continue to grow as a fisherman. Thanks for all your time in helping others become the best anglers they can be!

[@DEBOSFishing]

That means a lot to me man. My way is not the right way...it's just my way. You can't build a house without a strong foundation. Appreciate the kind words my man👊👊👊

[@kingshaln7062]

I watched BASS RESOURCES video on how to detect a bite, and he did describe how it might feel and all. Personally, the best way to know is by finding out yourself. The more bites you get, the more you’ll know how they feel. And I also agree with stopping when you think you have a bite. I stop and lightly lift my rod to try and feel the fish move. Great video!

[@DEBOSFishing]

You nailed it man. You can study all you want but you have to go out and make it work for you. Thanks for watching 👊

Thanks man, I greatly appreciate you watching. Yea made me so mad growing up but I GREATLY appreciate and understand now why he did it.

[@134rwa]

Yes!, it comes with practice. The one that still fools me, is when I may hook an under water branch, and pull a bow in the branch, and when the bow straightens out, it feels like a fish pulling (darn stick fish).

[@DEBOSFishing]

Hahah I'm highly experienced at catching stick fish! If everyday was a breeze on the water, we wouldn't have any fun stories to tell hahah

[@Nate_Cross]

I feel like this is the single greatest thing I need to focus on this year, getting better at recognizing those subtle bites that I am completely missing. Another excellent video!

[@DEBOSFishing]

The cool thing about fishing is that there are so many variables and tons to learn. Thanks for watching man!

[@texasbassranger]

Nathan, I doubt you will see this, but yeah. My all-time personal best was a 9lb+ bass I caught on a jitterbug in 1977. She rolled on it but my line didn't move a centimeter. only when I twitched it a couple of times did I realize I had a frickin' donkey on the line. I didn't feel her take it or nudge it. And the weird thing? I only had her cheek fouled...with only one treble tine. It was heart-pounding for 8 minutes until I landed her.

[@Nate_Cross]

@@texasbassranger I did see your comment, and I'm very happy to report that I have gotten MUCH better at this. I got a nice 4 pounder a couple weeks ago that was a similar bite to what you just described. Tight lines!

[@Basssteeler]

Awesome video! Wish I had something similar to this growing up. Can't tell you how many times I asked my dad how I would know if something is a bite when fishing a new lure. Watching your line is probably the most important tip on here. Especially fishing a jig or a flipping bait. I always have slack line when fishing these lures so watching my line is how I catch most of my fish on those lures. Also I won my first club tournament with a 4lb 12oz in late March because I was watching my line. Had slack and saw my line taking off to the right. Reeled in the slack and set the hook. Caught my only fish that day and it was good enough to win.

[@DEBOSFishing]

That's awesome man! Congratulations on the win. I agree, line watching is very important!

[@robertneal6878]

Quite a while ago I had a brown trout cleaning off my hook crawlered up. I was using Berkeley Chromatic line, so I silhouetted it against a dark background from where I stood. Then I watched as the line moved - and Hooked em’! Could not have done that by feel alone.

[@SD-wo2gx]

The other weekend I fished a ned rig the first time and I had look like a fool trying set the hook so many times with no fish. I was fishing it too fast and the moss kept feeling like bites. But my coworker made me feel better by saying hooksets are free! Great video Mr. Debo!

Some of my shakeyhead bites are immediately hooked, before you have time to tell they bit it, and just strong pulling. Thanks to light wire hooks,braid and a ML rated rod with a nice bend. That's how a lot of the bites I get, are. They hook themselves for me.

[@DEBOSFishing]

Yep, that's the way those light finesse setups should be. Just reel into those fish. Great point man!

My old man told me the same as you debo, but he also said if you're unsure very gently pop rod tip. If you get a reaction it's usually a fish.

I started fishing for the first time this year. I had this problem, and could not catch a fish. Then I decided to switch to braid, and my first outing I caught my first bass, it felt soooo much different with the sensitivity and also I could cast further.

Got my first top water bite the other day. It was cool.

You're welcome. Thank you for watching!

[@JeffGeraldFishing]

Great info Debo I’m guilty of missing more then a few myself cause I wasn’t watching my line on those kind of days. Happens to us all a time or two haha. Great video 👊🏻

[@DEBOSFishing]

I hear ya man, just have to learn from it. Thanks for watching 👊

I used to asked myself about this, but then I got my first big fish and my rod start to shaking and go crazy.

I recently went smallmouth fishing and was using a curly tail texas rigged and what I felt was it seemed like my bait was dragging on bottom and the bite was soo subtle.

[@DEBOSFishing]

Yep, some days it's like that. They just grab and go. Line watching is very important on those days! Tight lines man 👊

[@MYWRLDVW]

Great video! Showed it to my kids, hoping to see some improvement in our fishing success! Growing up topwater was always easy to figure out, the rest are trickier. Hope this will help them be more persistent in trying to unbox the mystery of it all.

I know this video old but this really helped me out when I watched my line it went straight and send it but it really helped me thank you and the bass was about idk 5 pads I'd didn't have a scale on me then I cuaght another one so thank you again love your channel I couldn't thank you enough keep it up 👍😁🤘

[@emoslipknotemo]

5 pounds I meant to say lol

[@qislegit.donttrustthemedia6232]

The problem I have with plastic worms at my local pond is that I get tons of small fish that bite. They're always grabbing just the tail. Tired of setting my hook on every cast and never getting the big one.

[@DEBOSFishing]

You may try going a bit smaller then. That way they can get the whole meal in one bite. It could also be bluegill...they're notorious for stealing tails!

[@mp-wg7jy]

Excellent video... very thorough and helpful! ... and PS I love the closing song. 😃

[@KAYSBRANCH]

The turtle that felt like a tree limb. Only time I ever caught something that was pissed off at me. Bit like a bluegill. Little ticky tack nip bites, then started to crawl away. Set the hook. Nearly broke my rod.

[@kevintaylor1434]

Music selection was just as good as the video

[@dennisgrocholski4190]

Well done, Debo.👍👊

[@DEBOSFishing]

Thank you sir, appreciate you watching!
