Should we do Bass Pro next??

[@amandaridgeway5847]

Yessssssssssssss !!!!!

[@amandaridgeway5847]

Yessssssssssssss !!!!

[@troybing6665]

Do whatever you want LOJO you always put out fantastic content. Where’s Norm hiding out?

[@alexcampbell126]

Yes sir

[@jamesalexander3240]

Please start the podcast again I miss the shenanigans

[@inn0c3ntbylaw92]

with the magdraft, its actually common that the magnet rips out. but pretty easy to fix stuff like that. Most bad reviews are just people complaining trying to get things free. Great video as always!

[@aaronstaskal6021]

“And by decent I’m stretching it” had me laughing out loud for real.

[@josephgoodlett4105]

You should do a marina/large dock panfish challenge of zebco dock demon VS the Shakespeare dock runner poles in a 1v1

[@lojofishing]

interesting..

[@OK_BASSIN]

You have made such a journey since you started in 2016-17 from starting with very little to joining the googan squad to becoming one of the most popular KZbin angers out there and I hope you continue to grow and be my fishing inspiration

[@J_Dunc_da_MILLest]

At like 7 min Lojo-"there's literally only 1 thing left to do." Then proceeds to list off 3 things. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Your unintentional comedy is almost as good as the intentional stuff. Lmao. Love the channel keep up the good work.

[@brucemohon740]

Let's go LOJO! Love you and all your and Andrew's content

[@michaelharrisson1683]

I dug up the Zebco Stinger i got fur a gift cause of the last upload.. caught 3 Northern Pike so far on it and is the 6 lb test ice reel version... Still a smooth operator

[@mikeledsome]

Great Vid Lojo!!! Loved it man......Killed it!

[@jacoblively4790]

I learned the knot you use by watching your videos and it made life easier

[@jjfishing6138]

The mag draft is amazing swim bait, but I had the same issue with the hook and the magnet falling out I ended up super glue the little magnet in

[@robertlorentino9911]

Thank you for the amazing content per usual🤝

[@13outdoors47]

Just got off of my 12hr shift at 6am today..... when you lost your boot.... that had me cracking 🤣 up.... Great review video 👏. Bass Pro review would be great

[@joshwagner8468]

Let's go lojo. Love the channel man 😊

[@theBoss3121]

Awesome video lojo! Love the idea of buying a no reviewed product to add with the other items. Hope you keep it up!

Keep up the work lojo

[@outsidewithmatthewward]

sick! Keep up the good content and big fish

[@outsidewithmatthewward]

Take me fishing please!

[@braydenmaracchini5550]

I bought my first baitcaster because I watched you and then I wanted one tried it out the first time a couple of days ago and I love it

[@michaelmuncher34]

You the man LoJo

[@justinconnor5414]

Love the vids 🎣

[@dirtybuzzard5977]

Awesome video LOJO. Ya Should try the catfish liver cheese bait in backyard pond . 👍👍👍 Yall stay safe and Keep’em coming

[@jmoe3129]

SHEEEESH one of the greatest!!!🔥🔥

[@AquAddicts]

Hey LoJo been with you a couple years now.. love the content keep that up. As for the closed lous reel. It is just like an old zebco 33. When you cast keep the thumb button depressed the whole cast. That holds the line catches all the way into the reel spool. Just pushing and releasing does work but line catches stay expose just a tiny bit. I kmow you aren't going to be using a whole lot of closed face reels 😂 but it is worth mentioning so might help young new anglers. Much respect and Thank You for Your Service!

[@BareBassin]

You're the man loj! You should do some tournament videos since it's warming up, I miss seeing you fish those night derbys.

[@lojofishing]

Coming soon my brother

[@mayfieldfitnessnoutdoors]

My son picked out the H20X craw. And we loved it. It was just a great time catching bass that day

[@alantrask6500]

The outro and clip at the end😂😂😂

[@BobbyBeauty-fp8ke]

[@mitchellwest174]

Love your videos

[@lkacole4020]

Love the content brotha. If you ever find yourself in Virginia come by Lake Anna and I’ll take you out to catch some big striper and hybrids

[@angelmartin1750]

This video is fire 🔥

[@johnny11b_assin62]

I just saw some of those proficiency rods and was really thinking about buying one

[@jeffreyhucks8485]

I give you 5 out of 5 stars! You’re the best lojo🤙

[@MBPFishing]

Probably the stuff I buy. Usually way cheaper.😂😁👍 It is hard to tell on thes vids if there poor quality because they usually hold up a couple trips at least. Still fun to watch and entertaining. Content cool👍👍👍😄😄😄

[@wildarrowoutdoors3417]

we seen you when you were filming! We were in there buying lures! Love the videos and I found a pond nearby with some good ones if your interested cool owner as well

[@amandamanwering6940]

You can always replace the treble hooks on lures. I do all the time it's saved me a lot of lures and money over the years specially on discontinued lures.

[@Razzy316]

Lojo's shoe game is wild

[@MyndlessMayhem]

I have 2 of those Profishiency rods and they're my favorite lol.

[@therileyreeves7154]

Lojo... U need to do a saltwater fishing VIDEO WE NEED IT RN🙏

[@Johnsaechao1]

Yay . Good video .

[@kaneodenius305]

I like the profishincy combo I’ve had no problem with it even having braid on it casts good and the real isent bad

[@Cpw111c]

That lees road is not bad I have gotten some pretty good fish on it

[@RaidCrafts]

ive got the profishiency krazy baitcaster its a good combo for the price

[@user-ub5pj3zv9u]

Yes definitely do bass pro next

[@jmanownz985]

I have had the magdraft magnet fall out and get lost after only 2 bass as well.

[@HDBrown-wc9xt]

I’d like to see some “how to videos”. How to rig up certain baits. How to use them. Stuff like that.

[@thedanklemur1]

CHALLENGE IDEA ‼️ Glide bait challenge, biggest bass or most bass !!!

[@trp3508]

Lojo is the GOAT 🐐

[@marcuswhittington7993]

Lojo fish lake Seminole make a video at the dam

[@stevenslaughter9765]

The lews combo my nephew uses and he can cast halfway across his pond. Maybe a user error thing

[@mab11788]

Hey lojo you should do the one armed fishing challenge. I'm honestly curious to see who can and or will do it

[@noprogameing]

Great video man love them keep up the great work but we need to talk about the podcast man come on we miss it

[@crazykids2004]

Good old Uncle LOJO is the best I want to see you go to Bass Pro shops

[@zippyzhanna7465]

Bass Pro worst rated fishing gear challenge would be dope! When u get the Green Goblin back though!

[@TheMcraven]

Can you do a fishing weekend preparation video

[@kylegerlach3082]

@lojo do Ollie's again would love to see it.

[@blind_eye_fishing]

That catfish bait ive actually caught fish on. It's not my favorite thing to use but it can work

[@elementairttv]

Same I have a small pond near me that is stocked regularly with 2lb catfish and I catch them pretty frequently. But it stinks 😂

[@blind_eye_fishing]

​@@elementairttv definitely stinks up everything lol. It's also not easy to get that stink off your hands and clothes 😂

[@garbagestatefishing6857]

I always wondered if any of your battle buddies ever watched your videos and would you ever film with them.

[@MrDbrad88]

That lews combo, what if you switch the line to braid or something alittle stronger then what’s in it from factory…sometimes line from factory is trash and doesn’t go with the combo.

[@Abetheangler]

I bet you’ll catch them any way! Logo the man! 👨

[@KarsonDavis7]

I fish with the magdraft a lot. And can confirm the magnet falls out after a few good fish

[@theBoss3121]

any hooks off with pliers weakens them so much. Go find yourself a big catfish circle hook. After ur second fish. That hook will break off. Also easy to do it yourself too. Plenty of vids out there

[@Terpenesteve]

The way I see it,the bad ratings are just from people who can't catch fish😂😂 And I'll be honest,some of the reviews you will read regardless where it is,you can clearly tell who fishes and the people just trying to get free stuff... However,buying discount gear and bad rated gear is something I always love to do! I have found many amazing lures and equipment simply from trying them when they were disgraced...you might find the next hot lure by doing this!! Great video as always brother LoJo❤

[@micahjohnson987]

My buddy dangled line by hand with a hook and some power bait and caught 3 fish for 3 casts. To this day I never look at new gear the same way.

[@troybing6665]

That’s to bad about the box turtle but let nature take its place and come back and get its shell. I found a dead box turtle years ago and hid it and came back in a month and it was all cleaned out. Great video as usual LOJO Let’s Go

[@larrymoore6904]

i bought two of the big swimm baits and the magnets feel out of both not good to and never caught a fish with them just me

[@kalonjohnson7732]

I want to see you do best pro shops bass

[@scottsibert542]

Do a spin cast review with the legend....,sir Davy gravy

[@Bledsome]

Let’s go!

[@greasyrails2571]

Nice video

[@robertgarcia6325]

Not a Loki fan but his content keep showing up on my feed #overrater #letthem come

[@troybing6665]

You should put a bell on the end of the catfish rod so you know when it’s getting hit while you are fishing the other rods LOJO.

[@Steve-ev6vx]

Or use a real with a clicker in free spool.

[@rickywatters9899]

I've never had any luck with any of the magic baits

[@Jwvfootball]

The fishing is kicking into gear

[@242guile]

I clicked for the 1000th like...nice!!!!

[@patrickdavis6954]

As a west coast guy I never even heard of academy till these vids and norms. Any good?

[@Steve-ev6vx]

For sure.

[@benballard-ho7tu]

What if the Lews combo is specifically built and looks like that to trash Googan Squad? That green looks pretty damn similar 🤔

[@leehowell4258]

That catfish bait is equivalent to dookie balls. 😂😂 stinks and I’ve never caught anything on them. Oh, and don’t let them spill in your car…takes forever to get the smell out! Agree with H2O baits. Change the split rings and hooks out and they are decent but the hooks will break on you quick. Great video and actually liking that $10 2’ combo to keep in the car when you see that roadside pond and want to know what’s in it! Wonder if those Gulp have a bad cold joint from a two color pour? The solid color seemed to do a lot better versus the chartreuse tail. Wouldn’t surprise me if there was a coke joint from the manufacturing process.

[@Boogiemathers4303]

You should put some minnows and shunners in that pond

[@Boogiemathers4303]

And Bluegill.

[@cross_fire_]

Those proficiency products look like a joke but David Dudley uses them on tour. They seem to be pretty good. Also as a big swimbait user, the dangerous swim bait by bass mafia is superior to the mag draft but I’m talking 1A to 1B Also the hooks on the h20 baits, they are great they may not hold up but they hook everything because they are razor sharp. It seems like they are the same hooks used on the mega bass 110 out of the package.

[@FluffyWubkins]

So now that you have the rods try changing the reel and test the rods and see if the rods are worth it

[@koplays8495]

Do lowest raiting bait caster

[@Richard.m1192]

Reel is supposed to be in the tray on that catfish rod.

[@kevincampbell5357]

The proficiary rod in real combo rating sounded more like a personal issue with the buyer and the store, not the product itself or manufacturer?

[@raystebbins2383]

Magdraft ftw

[@justincaldwell3353]

Academy just recently changed who makes their baits and they are so much better now

[@DanielThomason]

Def used the wrong hook for the catfish bait. They sell trebles for that. Holds it better

[@ninjapanda7550]

Lojo pro fisherman KZbinr and turtle care taker

[@doublej573]

How about trying to use Sougayilang gear.

[@doublej573]

I found the video you did on this product name, it was great

[@chrisdavidson6519]

Sometimes you got to look at when the review was made. Because some brands do listen to their consumers and make changes. Not saying all do but some do. So some of those ratings may not represent the improved product.

[@cristianguerra1401]

Hey lojo

[@Krehbiel22]

PODCAST PODCAST PODCASTS!!! Like if you want them back

[@jeremysmith8529]

Why did you think an ice fishing combo was a good idea bro?! 🤣😂

[@CthulhuIsReal420]

Profishency has some cheap trash, but their higher end stuff seems to be decent, Fishing With Smalls has even had them as video sponsors, and even used their baitcaster and it all worked pretty well.
