Mastering Lily Pad Fishing: Insider Tips for Monster Bass!

[@robertpowers6853]

Watching from Michigan I am 61 and still learning. Thank you for the information

[@wilmerpruitt6324]

Giving up all the good info. Summer time heat, a skulling paddle, sitting on the front of a jon boat. stealthy approach to the edge of a pad flat. "SHADE" You'd be shocked at what you catch dipping wacky worms or Texas rigged worms. Great tutorial Ike.

Prespawn with a swim jig in those stems can be great!!

Great video Mike! Love fishing lillypads here in upstate New York

Excellent information. Great energy and well put together instructional vid on pads. You covered every aspect of fishing Lilly pads, from A to Z, and left nothing out. I learned a lot watching it. I always fish the pads and seem to lose more fish than I land. If I could get credit for Lilly blows ups I'd win every tournament, lol. I'm always looking for a way to get more hook sets and net more fish. Thank you for that insight, it was next level info.

Couldn't agree more man... being down here in SW Louisiana our river systems and lakes are loaded with pads and when the bite is on in them it can makes for some phenomenal fishing... Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!

I use texas for point vertical deepwater fiscing. Carolina for shallow water horizontal grid search?

[@ryangardner5896]

I live in Lafayette I fish the vermillion all the time. I can't catch crap. I am fishing the bank but the last 10 times I went I caught 1 bass. Less then 1 lb

Great vidio . You ready captured my attention with your energy and focus to detail. Realy enjoid it thanks

[@kevinwinfree]

Best vid ive seen in a WHILE. Thank you!!!! Super informative. I thought I knew pads. reinforced some things, learned several tips. Use to hate those dang pads. Always getting hung up. Then I learned to love them (when I caught several nice fish in there). I still have to walk out into the waist deep water once or twice a summer to retreive my fish when they get hopelessly tangled....so worth it. Be well Sir. Thanks again.

This is the personification of passion manifest. Giving it away.

[@bradrichards1442]

Great video. I just found a new lake with a monster field of big pads. Going to try it out

[@134rwa]

Really good facts about fishing pads, and I love fishing the pads.

[@mspellyt1]

Great video. Thanks Mike.

I’m 37 and have been fishing since I was old enough to walk. Fished several bass tournaments over the years as well, but haven’t ever seen or fished lily pads! I’m in central Georgia!

Watching in NJ

[@nelhead4807]

I have a lake by my house that’s covered in pads at least half the lake it’s wild. I know there are some hogs in there. I’ll be trying some of those tips and see if I can get some of them.

[@williamtomlin9983]

[@jamesvircik2865]

Ike can you do the noise again? lol awesome video thank you 👍

[@OzarkPursuit7883]

Like these videos, thank you sir.

[@robertbrost7777]

Lots of pads at Stockton University Mike! I use a stick bait Texas rigged but, I use them weightless. Anything else and they get hung up. They get hung up weightless too but, a lot less. I hop the stick bait across the pads until it gets to a hole. It falls through and bamm!

[@smelltheglove2038]

That’s exactly how I do in south Jersey. I use a 4in keitech though.

[@donniedarko1345]

I Love pads and I HATE Pads. When Im fishing, using all the info according to IKE, I usually do pretty good. Been Hooking up non-stop here in NC. Now My girl is talking about "pads". We have a COMPLETELY different definition of Pads. I see hidden bass, ready to pounce. She sees week of hell. What am I doing wrong as a dumb fisherman IKE????
