Awesome fish

[@jerryrouth6115]

It was an awesome fish and when you have him on 6 lb test line he was something to deal with. Thanks Terry.

Great vid Jerry! Beautiful hybrid and a slew of nice whites!

[@jerryrouth6115]

That largest hybrid was something else on 6 lb test line. But, that is the kind of thing we are looking for. Thanks for stopping by and taking to comment.

nice day of fishing.

[@jerryrouth6115]

One of the best days I had all year. Thanks for coming along and taking time to comment.

[@Winkiedoodles]

Not much else to say, Jerry, except wow, great fresh water tarpon fishing 😀 👌. If those Whites weren't enough of a workout, that beautiful 9 lb Wiper was the jackpot! Very rare sight and congrats. Don

[@jerryrouth6115]

Thanks Don. Good to hear from you. I haven't been able to surf much for quite some time. We have health issues that takes a lot of our time. Thanks as always.

My Christmas wish is that you & Sharon get to keep fishing (and taking us along) as long as possible throughout the years to come! I truly enjoy your trips! Thanks ever so much. Have a very Merry Christmas!!!

[@jerryrouth6115]

Thank you so much for the kind words. I don't know how much longer we can do this. We are getting old!!! But for now, we plan to keep trying. Thanks again for support.

Jerry I’ll second Roberts post. Good times ahead for all.

[@timsInSSI]

A boat load of white fish, all in a day's work for you two. That last fish was something else!

[@jerryrouth6115]

The last fish was my largest Hybrid Bass in several years. Thanks again Timothy.

[@justflooreit4me1]

Congratulations on that big fish. What fond memories with your brother.

[@jerryrouth6115]

Since he had to move further away from me it really means a lot to do things together.

[@roypannell4012]

Nice to see you and your brother catching some big white bass.

[@jerryrouth6115]

It was special to us. Since he moved away we we haven't been able to fish together very often. I would like to come to your area but the weather doesn't look to good for a while. Thanks for responding Roy.

Great video my friend big like

[@jerryrouth6115]

Thanks John, I am enjoying your great Fall videos. Everyone out there, check John out.

[@wmcorbly2495]

The fish you have been swinging aboard the last month or so have been pretty large compared to those this summer. Is you get Sharon out there, you might get Moby in the boat. Thanks for the trip

[@jerryrouth6115]

Fall Whites and Hybrids normally run larger during the fall season. I would like to get Sharon out there but she has not been able to fish or play golf for some time now. Getting ready to schedule shoulder surgery after Christmas. Thanks as always for your support William.

[@artthompson6461]

That was an awesome white bass! Could you please post the speeds you like to troll at?

[@jerryrouth6115]

For White Bass and hybrids, I usually troll between 2.0 MPH and 2.5 MPH. I have had a few days when I had my best luck around 3.00 or more MPH. For Crappie and Walleye I usually prefer speeds under 2.00 MPH. These are Crank Bait speeds. When I troll jigs I usually troll One MPH or slower. Sometimes as slow as .4 MPH. These are lake speeds. When you start trolling rivers where there is significant current, you are playing a different game. I am not saying this is the best speeds to troll for everything, for example trolling live bait, spinners or spoons etc. is another game too. Hope this is helpful, thanks for coming along and asking a great question.

[@artthompson6461]

@@jerryrouth6115 Mr. Roth thank you so much! I have a 18 ft Ranger Aluminum boat with 70hp Yamaha. I have a hard time getting below 1.5 mph. Any suggestions?

[@kingachybraky]

@@artthompson6461 Get upwind of where you want to go and let the wind blow you along. Use your trolling motor to steer. Setting a large cooler on your front deck will help you gain a little speed.

[@randallpinkfloyd7225]

Outstanding day! Curious Jerry who do you consider the better fisherman, you or your brother?

[@jerryrouth6115]

The best fisherman changes every time they catch a fish LOL. You are always there in the boat with us so you decide!!!! Thanks like always.
