[@bassman252]

I need a Debo's Fishing/Realistic Fishing crossover more than I need anything else in my life.

Maybe one day

[@mr.altricebell8299]

jamie bairos who else put rubber bands on Senkos ?? Genius!

[@RealisticFishing]

@@mr.altricebell8299 Guys like Jamie bitch and moan, about people who bitch and moan. He is just jealous because I am good at it and he is a failure.

[@gerthao2742]

YESSSSSS, IM A BEGGINER fisherman and i recently baught a pack of Yum Dingers and some hooks for a wacky rig, this helped me soooooooooooo much. your a Legend

Awesome, I hope you catch a bunch!

@@RealisticFishing thanks, going monday

[@LordChumbley]

Appreciate how you make an effort of pointing out fishing etiquette like not to fish on top of other people. Wish more folks would not be selfish idiots.

[@DEBOSFishing]

Hard to beat the wacky stick during the summer. Good catches and glad that last one stayed pinned. Appreciate you allowing me to make a cameo 👊

[@RealisticFishing]

👊

[@Do0msday]

I love how you aren't about spending extra on a "big name" brand. YUM dingers are really good and a fraction of the price of official Senkos. I've got my best bass on YUM products. 4-5" green pumpkin is my go-to soft plastic. Perfect in murky/weedy water where I live. Those were some nice fish -- very chunky for their size. Great vid as usual.

[@RealisticFishing]

Some people still don't get it, but I am glad you do. The fish dont care what anyone paid for their tackle.

[@texasj49]

I buy some name brand stuff, but only at heavy discounts. On the other hand, I have tons of vintage stuff that I get at estate sales, etc for cheap. I think it will be really satisfying to catch fish on old, forgotten stuff that you can resurrect!.

[@outragequitter5027]

Dingers are a little lighter than a lot of other stick baits, but I kind of like that in shallower water. Keeps the bait up off the bottom for a little longer.

[@Do0msday]

@Dylan Linville There are variations, but the one with the highlighted tail is 'Green Pumpkin/Chartreuse'

[@corkyvanvalkenburg8857]

Just a little search and rescue for a buddy. I appreciate the the EFFORT.

[@RealisticFishing]

Thats right, I wouldnt want it stuck there

[@davedavis3873]

Now that I have watched 2 of your videos,constantly reminded of your channel so much that I know that I will remember which videos not to watch again...keeping it realistic...!

[@DeltaRogueFishing]

Realistic Fishing, great video! I love how simple you keep the fishing. I try to keep it that way on my channel. No need to break the bank on expensive, hyped up fishing tackle, and you caught the fish to prove it! Keep doin what you do!

[@crazytoypeople1158]

Talk about go get ‘em attitude! You are the real deal. Awesome.

[@RealisticFishing]

👍 Thanks!

[@Lee_Lee1776]

The water in old hickory is looking really clear but there is sooooooo much grass everywhere. Spend half the time cleaning green gunk off my hook/bait. So awesome to see a Debo promo! You guys are 2 of my favorite channels. Thanks for all the great videos.

[@RealisticFishing]

Weeds are a blessing and a curse 👍

[@rossbowman202]

Going out to get a bass, now that is realistic. Nice bass Alex. I need to try those hair bands.

[@RealisticFishing]

Hair Bands rule

[@sjones7400]

Good on ya for not leaving that last fish tied up in the weeds. 👍 ‘course l knew you wouldn’t. One of the many reasons yours is my favorite channel. Nice trio of bass feesh. I call that a darn good morning!!!

[@RealisticFishing]

This is how I like to start my day

[@sjones7400]

Realistic Fishing can’t think of a better way unless one of those bass was carrying a sack of 100 dollar bills when you caught him 😊

[@its_not_me999]

Glad to see someone catching a few. It's been a grind and many skunk days. That's realistic!

[@nashguy207]

Nice job on this morning Alex. You are a very good fisherman. I can tell you have had a lot of practice over the years. I'M sure you are helping a lot of beginners and showing them you don't have to have a boat and spend a small fortune on tackle to catch fish. Stay Safe. Stay Healthy. Have a great weekend!!

[@RealisticFishing]

I just hope I can get through to them 👍

[@fishingwithvance]

Tough to beat wacky. You are big on that weed guard hook. It always makes me think I'm gonna miss fish with it... but.. you are able to navigate the weeds way better than I can... nice job going in after number 3. Well done. Keep it realistic.. Fish on!

[@RealisticFishing]

It comes through the weeds, thats what I like about it

[@randallpinkfloyd7225]

You've got it dialed this year Alex! And fishing my favorite rod of yours too!

That rod I love

Will watch after work

I was at the beginning of watching a Jon B video when i saw this video popped up, i never clicked anything that fast in my life.. Keep up the great content! 🎣

[@totalannihilation9065]

I just remembered you were the guy who taught me how to work the june bugs. I've caught a lof of Bass because of that video. Thank you my good sir.

[@NStone90]

Nothi is as realistic as going in the water after a fish or a snagged lure.

[@wiles0826]

We always want just one more!!! Nice fishing brother!

[@dylant4737]

It never gets old seeing you *respectfully* giving other bank anglers space 👊🏻

Good luck out there 👍

[@dnacash]

Nice work with the wacky rig. Tough thing about fishing the weeds is getting them out of them. Wet feet for a nice bass!

[@RealisticFishing]

It was worth it 👍

[@johnusher5283]

A Yum Dinger wacky is gotta be one of my all time favourite rigs. Good job buddy.

KIR! 👍👍

[@tedlincolnsfishinglife]

I know your not much of a braid to leader kinda guy but those guides on that all star rod a awesome for leader knots! I have a matching set of all star rods that I bought in the late 90s and I still use them all the time!

[@RealisticFishing]

That makes sense, because the knot can slide through. 👍 I really like this All Star

[@63Bare]

Thanks for sharing another fishing trip Alex.

[@RealisticFishing]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@clearwaterfishing]

Not a bad first fish. I love catching them that size. Feisty at that size.

[@massachusettsprepper]

Early morning fishing and catching pretty nice bass is always a good thing. Thanks for sharing brother.

[@RealisticFishing]

Its how I like to start my day

[@nickrouco2889]

I absolutely admire your originality man. If it can be fished you’re gonna use it, and it seems that you are one of the few who represents that way. Keeping it realistic in a medium with a lot of professional phony’s 😎🤘🏻

[@RealisticFishing]

professional phony - I like this phrase 😅

[@catfish6138]

Hell yeah! No wonder he wasn't going to come through the weeds easily. "Makin' ya' come after me!"

[@matthewfordyce8313]

I will use this for the tough murky post spawn lake I've been skunked on to many times to count. Thanks!

[@marklouderbaugh2761]

Great video Alex- I like to see you lock in the hubs and 4x it to the fish💪🏼

[@RealisticFishing]

👊

[@Thespanglerangler]

Man, wading out there to pull that one out of the weeds is master level keeping it realistic!

Fishing is all of a sudden hugely popular. Never have I gone to Bass Pro and struggled to find of all things hooks. Ending up getting some a couple things for wacky riggings, never tried it before but saw some gear in the new In-Fisherman magazine. Looks like it’s effective!

[@RealisticFishing]

worth a try for sure

[@nielminor7529]

This is where i always go fishing with my kids i think! Off Benders Ferry? I've never caught anything over a lb. though. Your videos have taught me alot.

That was great Alex that's determination right there way to go nice fish keep up the great videos

Stick with it, you will get a feel for what they want

[@justinhd9865]

you're the whole reason i started using the watermelon redflake yum dinger lol. still one of my favorite baits!

[@blindsquirrel]

Nice retrieval of the fish in the weeds. I liked the appearance by two of my other favorite’s #DebosFishing and #TackleJunky81.

[@360fishingadventures8]

My favorite summertime bait overall. Frogs, T Rigs, and jigs are close contenders. Things like spooks and poppers work well in evening, night and morning. Lots of baits work, but the senko is my favorite.

[@Guitarbr87]

I just started fishing and I’m hooked (ha!) I’ve been targeting bass here in Nova Scotia, Canada and I can adapt some of your tips to our region. Keep up the good work with the videos
