How To Detect A Bite | Bass Fishing

[@roundssmadeit]

I’m in the process of relearning before I took a two year break I could catch fish all day no problem because I knew exactly what a bite felt like now it’s a challenge . And due to the virus it seems a lot of the local spots are being overfished in my opinion

[@TheAnthonydel]

Your opinion is right, even a year later

[@itsyadude4799]

2yrs later still correct talked to a few people they said spending all the time inside they're tryna make up that time

[@wacurtis8369]

Bass fishing for over 50 years and sometimes they still trick you. Good informative video. I've told many people if I had of had all the access to the information, both written and on video 40 or 50 years ago there is no telling what all we could have caught. Thanks

[@richardlollie9492]

I teach this skill to my son when he first started bass fishing. I go back and do this at a new lake I go to just to get use to the feel again when I haven't been fishing for a while. Great video keep them coming.

[@skyaussin4461]

As a beginner, 2 years serious Bass fishing, Bass resource for me is the "go to site" for all things bass... Just like this video! Thanks so much

[@kentballan4092]

This is probably the best method I've seen for bite detection. Great tip!!

[@joshuapaskins]

Its really hard to describe the bite but you did a nice job.

[@cameronguidry7399]

If it wasn't for bass resource and fluke master I would have never caught a fish thanks for the videos keep it up

[@portercox5286]

I've been looking for a video like this for a long time.

[@lowgear454]

Great video. Bass resource is the first place I go to when I wanna learn about fishing.

[@bassresource]

Ryan Eubanks Thanks for watching!

[@tlpatrno]

Nice video, I went to a pond and practiced for a month when I first started bass fishing with artificial bait. Bass Resource is great for all levels of bass fisherman.

[@davidatkins1794]

Relatively new to bass fishing and still working out how to differentiate between fish and sticks/grass/rocks while I fish. Thanks for putting out great resources like this so I can get better!

[@rodgermoran3483]

David Atkins When in doubt, set the hook!

[@FishingFrenzy135]

+Rodger Moran exactly

[@midwestfisherman]

Excellent video for a very practical way to learn what a bite feels like. Bass Resource does it again! Great job Glenn!

[@bassresource]

midwestfisherman Thank you! And thanks for watching!

[@robcollins232]

You are right, some things just can't be fully explained, you just have to experience it. Another good video, thanks.

[@NITROMANinTN.]

Some very good points & advice for those wanting to improve their plastic bait fishing.

[@N.C.Tim8021]

After being out of bass fishing for years this is good to know info.

[@kevinbates7710]

Great video. To really find out how a bite feels you got to catch those fish. Me personally I notice the two bump feel but sometimes I'm reeling up and it's just yank the other way lol. So just comes with time. I share what I learn from you guys with all my fishing buddies since we have our own little fishing club. Always a great time being on the water.

[@lemesnil1]

I love it...and once you get that feeling you'll never be the same again! So much fun! Thanks!

[@MrJed000]

Great tip with the Mojo rig. I'll have to try that rig out at my local pond. Another tip to help learn what the bite feels like is to use lighter tackle, such as a ML spinning rod with 8 pound test line. If you gain confidence with that, then you can move up to larger equipment. Or just have lots of fun with spinning gear!

[@billcrow5403]

Great video and tips. Bass Resource is my go to info center.

[@jwhiteker1]

Good tip... especially for beginners who struggle with sensing the bite.

[@timmatney7036]

Great tip. This is my first summer fishing for bass only. I will definitly try this and hopefully i will get better at detecting a bite. Thanks

[@timjenningsfishing]

Great video and excellent advice on how to learn to feel a bite. I love Bass Resource!

[@bassresource]

Timothy Jennings Thank you!

[@lakayakbass1161]

Thanks for the insight...experience will definitely help you determine when to set the hook. A good quality rod will allow the angler to feel the bite better as well.

[@AlGamarra]

This is great advice for showing kids and moving them from bluegills and sunfish to largemouth. Even better feel with light tackle.

[@johnsauerzopf4530]

This video is awesome and demonstrates lots of tips. I fish plastics occasionally.

[@ronnewbery7525]

I enjoy all your videos and usually learn something along the way.

[@22grg]

I've just started to get back into bass fishing after a hiatus,so it's been a while since I've felt a bass bite .thanks

[@chrissmith790]

awesome video of detecting a bite a bite , a fish bite is different in every fish , it can be playful , hitrun ,agressive.it depends on the fish mood .

[@christianpoupart9754]

I'm trying this tonight!!! Thanks

[@Zou523]

I have a case of the fishing yips. Last year I was crushing fish. This year I’ve been skunked every day. Biggest fish of the year has been a baby crappie. Going back to the basics to get my touch back, thanks for the video!

[@billconnolly1969]

So true, takes lots of practice.

[@tdiplacito]

Great tip. Experience is usually the best teacher. Nice underwater footage in the intro.

[@americanman6347]

Awesome video Glenn. Keep them coming. If possible do a longer one of you just fishing or something like that. Thanks

[@MrJerryx109]

Ya'lls info is always great, keep it up!

[@comptonislife9046]

What I have noticed when I am fishing crankbaits is that your bait is moving fast so you will know when there is a sudden change in the pattern of movement of your bait. What I feel is that all of a sudden your bait and line stops. With authority and as soon as your bait stops you will know if you are hung or if a bass has it.

[@tommymead4507]

Great vid. Will use this idea for teaching inexperienced worm fishers

[@SuEnRoD]

Very nice video. I like fishing plastic baits more than any other.

[@cjcraigfishing8449]

Another wonderful tip from BassResource

[@davetoepper]

Tap, tap...don't wait for the second one!

[@jnetwork3232]

😂😂

[@derekmiguel2012]

Great video. He is right you have to learn the way the bite feels for your self it is the only way you will understand what it feels like.

[@rubyholloway7189]

this info will help me teach my son about plastics, thank you

[@kjfishman547]

Thanks for the great suggestion to learn the soft plastic bite. Now if it will quit raining!

[@edgarsanchez2053]

..it's a good thing to learn all about fishing specially from u guys...tnx

[@deepiper6529]

I've caught more bass in the last week or so than I have in my whole life since watching this video and trying this out to learn what the bite feels like. And it's only the first of March now. I've been fishing 4" Yum Dinger's with this method and it's worked great.

[@bassresource]

Nice! We love to hear feedback like this. Thanks for being a loyal viewer!

[@laydon20s]

Can't wait to get on the water this weekend!

[@Grogers70426]

Very nice way to explain it. I usually use hard baits because I've always been wary of being able to detect the bite but a few weeks ago I bought some Zoom Super Hogs but I was in a small pond & only caught one fish due to limited time on water plus fishing from shore but the one I did catch was maybe a 1/2 lb if that big but the only way I noticed was he took off to the side. Might have to go to a better stocked pond or lake & try Glenn's way because I was fishing mine Texas rigged.

[@williamnewsome1104]

Best fishing instructional videos

[@marlonphillips1385]

Thanks for the information I'll give the Splitshot rig a try.

[@1304GT]

Good stuff! We all need a refresher now & then.

[@abromfie]

Another great video. I used this technique when learning to fish with jigs.

[@jacobzurita2024]

Bass Resource is an endless supply of fishing knowledge!

[@calebbyrd6854]

Nice video! Excited to try out your advice.

[@dungloe08]

I have learned to love the shaky head! My go-to bait like Texas rig used to be

[@t3x4sguy]

Great info. I'm going to hit up the tackle store today for some slitshot gear.

[@pregan1723]

Great tips, gonna have to try this out this weekend.

[@patrickcalcagno3319]

Thins is exactly how I teach new fishermen. Great video

[@STAY-GOLD-VINYL]

Very helpful. Will try this on saturday. Wish me luck!!!

[@bassresource]

Great! Let me know how you do!

[@terryfrazier6939]

Best way to learn is to keep fishing.Great videio

[@audiopizza_]

I'll have to give it a shot, thanks!

[@jasonramos8115]

Really good tip to know. It will help me out on the water and on shoreline

[@ISpyMagic]

Very true! Especially if you are not sight fishing

[@jerrywhatley5168]

I enjoy the videos they are very educational keep it up

[@jamesf1525]

Enjoying the informative videos here. Some other videos teach nothing. Between this and Flukemaster, you do not need much else to learn about bass fishing. Thanks!

[@OutLaw96s]

Spending a lot of time on the water is key to telling how a fish bite feels like

[@lyndonbjohnson44]

Awesome video,I keep one tied on..great info...I live on Lake Guntersville,I use a lots of plastic lures..

[@thomastoy2677]

Spot on information. I can't tell the size of the fish based on the bite. Sometimes the bite is so subtle and all you see is your line drifting away. Other times you can be reeling in and not know you hooked up until you're almost reeled in and all of a sudden the action starts. Very fun fishing bass. Agreed..Hot weather is good! Good job, thank you for sharing this excellent video with us.

[@bassresource]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.

[@Fishingwithpops]

Great video should help a lot the next time I'm on the water

[@bradsillasen1972]

Nice punt but about what I figured;-) No substitute for experience. Always appreciate the straight talk on Bass Resource. Gotta swing more and guess less I reckon.

[@masfishing1]

Great topic for new fisherman to plastics and the homework is what sets your video apart from the rest

[@bassresource]

Nice! We love to hear feedback like this. Thanks for being a loyal viewer!

[@jeffb2319]

I'm in for trying new baits. And great videos guys!

[@danielkaiser8545]

Great video! Cant wait to get back out on the water!

[@OMGBASS]

Great video, good information and I will be watching the video on how to rig the split shot and ribbon tail worm. Thanks for the help. :)

[@rodgermoran3483]

OMGBASS Ring tail worms are my Go To bait. I have literally landed hundreds of bass and other species on the Dead Ringer, 4" in Green Pumpkin with a slip sinker.

[@lloydwhitmore9844]

I thought the video was very good. Can't wait to try it out.

[@scottb8252]

Good advice, will give this one a try!

[@tonymaxedon]

Another great video from Glen!

[@bassresource]

tonymaxedon Thank you!

[@karenmitchell9684]

Good video and tips on how to understand how bass bite plastic worms

[@mnije]

Nice! Love the underwater shots.

[@HoosierCarnivore]

Love fishing a worm in the summer but never tried the split shot rig. I'll check it out. thanks!

[@franktolman6589]

Awesome video. Very useful information!

[@josephmuth155]

Another good video. Looking forward to learning much more from this channel.

[@jonerdmann6512]

Love the opening action, of catching a nice bass. Gonna hit the water with some ribbon tails.

[@thomasgorcyca4154]

Good advice, I will keep this in mind

[@sonicpopospeedpig7806]

good info, its very hard to tell some one what a soft plastic bite fells like, thanks.

[@brandonholmes9200]

I fish soft plastic pretty much all the time. More often than not you don't even feel it, it's a sight thing. A tightening of the line or a tick on the line is all I have ever saw. Very rarely have I felt a strong pull. During spawn time the bite is always a sweep to the left or right, because of the fish moving the lure off or the bed. This is why I love using soft plastics, it requires attention to detail.

[@travisseay2265]

Great video for beginners.

[@81sinatra]

you always put up good videos

[@kenswitzer4133]

I am a total novice and at 72 years old along with having 3 strokes over the past 6 years. I grew up fishing for catfish and brem. They would take the float and run so you just lift the rod and catch him. Thanks for your help here. If I am using a worm and pull it over a limbI have trouble telling if I have hit another Limb or get a hit. Bass fishing is not as easy as it looks.

[@jasonaucoin6773]

As always, another great video. I've learned so much from your videos and newsletter. Thank you

[@ethankanoy2742]

Nice vid, I'll try this the next time I go fishing.

[@montyrose18]

Great tips I'll most definitely have to try that

[@HankSnowgrandslamfishing]

Very informative. Please keep up with all the good info for all us fishing fools.

[@davidnearhoof5164]

Great video, bottom line takes experience

[@erikellett78]

Great advice for all. Good video!

[@dougcastro4668]

Great video, you can talk to a hundred anglers and get a hundred different answers. Personal experience, time on the water is key!

[@montyrose18]

Great video and tips I can most definitely use this thanks a lot

[@shaunbaker8877]

Good stuff here! Can't wait to watch more Fish on!

[@adampowers9300]

I really enjoy the videos and tips.

[@zaccoffman1691]

It's all about that bass about that bass with trebles!

[@phillipstanley9479]

Wow great video!! I have a friend who is very experienced but me... Not so much.. I think this will help me a lot so thank you!!

[@bassresource]

+Legacy Trick Shots You're welcome! Glad it helped!

[@codyodom6114]

Nice vid. I've learned that using braid GREATLY increases bite detection. Afraid the fish will see it? Just tie on a flourocarbon leader.
