Drifting Worms at Pymatuning (GIANT Catch!!)

[@robertvargo9824]

Hey Alex, another great day of fishing. Thanks for sharing.

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

Of course, glad you enjoyed!

[@YourNextCast]

Really like that rod and reel you are fishing with. Can't go wrong with night crawlers on a jig.

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

Thanks! Gotta love fishing with night crawlers, never know what you’re gonna hook into!

[@johnrobinson7242]

Great video. I've never had enough patience to use jigs but I'm going to try to use them again.

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

I agree, definitely have to get used to a long retrieve time. But it pays off!

[@Steve-sv3ln]

New respect for Zebco reals for sure! Nice catch! Jesus, is very good to us! The Gospel of John, sooner than later precious souls.❤️

[@gordondrnek1986]

What in the world do you call that casting method?

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

Which one?

[@johnrobinson7242]

I'm going out and buy a zebco baitcaster... Like when I was a kid..L. O. L.

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

For the price they’re not too bad at all!

[@leekflower1]

Did you jig for the walleye, drift, or throw it and let it sit?

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

We do all of the above, just depends on the day

[@paulmerritt7540]

it looks like a white bass, not actually a sriped bass but look for the telltail tooth patch on the tounge to know if you're legal.

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

I agree, don’t think there’s too many lakes around here with a striped bass population

[@leekflower1]

Aren't there hybrids that are similar?

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

@@leekflower1 yep, although I’m not too great with my identification on those species. Pretty sure it has something to do with the different stripe patterns

[@leekflower1]

What lb test are you using

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

I typically run 10lb test mono. I’ve even hooked some muskie on it and as long as you play them right you’ll land bigger fish

[@leekflower1]

@@alexlannyfishing8317 ok that makes me feel better because that's around what I use and I thought it was too heavy. Turns out I'm either fishing at the wrong time of year or I suck at fishing or both. Lol. Pymatuning is on fire right now!!!

[@alexlannyfishing8317]

@@leekflower1 It definitely took me a bit to understand that fishery, but you’ll be catching in no time!
