How to Fish - Figure Things Out One Lure at a Time - Bass Fishing Lake Chickamauga

This fishing video started out with not knowing how I was going to catch them. Follow along as I show you how to fish several different lures as I try to catch as many largemouth bass as I can. Crankbaits, Swimbaits, Spinnerbaits, I figure things out one lure at a time. It was a fun day. Fishing Lake Chickamauga.

Some of the best memories of my life were fishing with my Dad. I'm 65 now and feel so blessed that my Dad used to take me fishing. Keep building those memories Gene!!

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks Norman. I loved fishing with my father. It's what kept me out of trouble.

[@isaacecheverria2017]

You're teaching your kid well👌🙌

[@tedjones8639]

Awesome vid fishing with your boy. I wish I could fish that good when I was his age.......awesome!

[@kylethebassattacker1108]

awesome video Gene thanks for the tips they help out!

[@Carlfishing]

Nice video and very informative

[@angleratlarge6787]

Great to see your younger son on the boat with you. He is a trooper to keep going without catching a fish every cast. You are a great teacher he will learn well.

[@Flukemaster]

That boy doesn't quit. He hates to stop fishing even when we aren't catching anything.

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Very nice video, Fluke!

[@mckmh07167]

Always nice to see the best have a rough day. Thanks

[@BitetheBaitFishing305]

Great Video Gene, a lot of really good information.

[@Bozorg5]

Just want to say your shirt of the month are great! I get comments on them all the time. Thanks for filling my wardrobe.

[@LarryJohnson7]

Great video Gene keep it up

[@BillsCatch22]

Love seeing your son out with you. Classic fishing with dad.

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks Bill

[@DylanWa8038]

Looks like Pickwick. Love that place

[@DoubleADraws]

Fluke love the videos of you just breakdown a regular day of fishing. Jordan looks like he caught the 🎣 bug.

[@blackhawku]

Happy Father's Day flukemaster

[@tnpharmd]

I'd recognize those cooling towers anywhere!

[@FishingLakeCountry]

Enjoy seeing you fish with your son. that was my best fishing days, Caught over 30 bass on a fluke this week. now I'm the fluke master. ha.

[@dukeaboy829]

Hey Gene while I was watching fishing shows on TV this past Saturday, South Bend's Lunkerville came on and to my surprise you were on it!!!great to see you on the big screen tv.... and I found out something I didn't know about the fluke master... he can sing!!! Awesome job man...

[@reecereynolds2377]

Great video. Every time u go out you should do what u did and just explain your thought process of how your attacking that day of fishing

[@MrBigRedViking]

Gene, dude, love your videos, and def love the fluke! The last two bass I caught were on Flukes! A week ago I hooked a nice two pound largemouth in water so muddy I shouldn't have caught anything in on a double fluke rig I learned from one of your videos. I'll be honest, when I first picked up a pack of flukes I thought, 'really?' But now that I've seen them in action I am in love! Thank you, sir, for your informational videos and your dedication to the sport! Please, keep up the good work!

[@Flukemaster]

That's cool Tom. Thanks man.

[@activeaxel2190]

That’s a gnarly view with the nuclear powerplant in the back drop

[@chrisgreen5029]

you were in harrison bay on the last seg i was just there today, but look like you may have filmed it yesterday. great video!

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks man.

[@reeltruthoutdoors2374]

Subscribed love your vids brother keep up the great work. I think we are close you are in Georgia correct

[@SthlmSigge]

Hi Gene! In your video you talk about not putting braid on a reel when casting swimbaits. Here in Sweden we fish after pike with swimbaits that weigh about 3,5 oz and we cast it with braid.

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

my girl 6 years old she said she going to win the bass master tournament she loves watching your video she like look daddy he taking his kid fishing too I said yep he a good dad too she said he teaching him how to fish I said that's right she said get me that bait daddy lol I don't know about giving her treble hooks yet she see carp jump she just turns an throws an slap you with lure hehehehehe I love seeing kids getting excited fishing keeps them out of trouble I have a 28 year old rather go fishing then hang out with friends he never been in trouble keep up the good work love the show love the way you tell everything depth of water how cold way to work lures ect..... I told my grandson listen now he tell you how to fish that will give you started point he is 6 too

[@johnhooks8144]

look into a ledge hog awesome awesome deep water bait

[@royfloriad1]

@flukemaster get Jordan to talk a little about a catch. 😁

[@robertchillcott7669]

I like dragging a Carolina Rig with a black lizard or a Crayfish, I caught a wall hanger on a black lizard in a private pond. He pinned it to the bottom and I thought I was hung up until he started moving off with it. Carolina Rigs catch big fish along with Bass Jigs.

[@zgobbler5]

Thank you for your videos. Jordan makes a great fishing partner. Love the commentary between the two of you. Keep up the good work!

[@trailshooter2380]

When is that new boat coming!!!!!

[@STAY-GOLD-VINYL]

Good pa and son day on the lake. Damn my Dad had no patience and it was common to get a canoe paddle upside your head if your annoy ole Dad haha Miss that old Dude

[@patricklowery2503]

Enjoy your videos with Jordan! Reminds me of my Dad and I fishing when I was a kid. Keep up the great work, Gene.

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks Patrick. He's the one son who will stay out on the boat all day even if we aren't catching anything and then get mad when it's time to go. There's no quit in him.

[@patricklowery2503]

You're raising him right!

[@donaldestes7794]

Do you have any videos on exactly how to fish Creature baits? I’ve watch some of your videos and they have helped me immensely. Thanks in advance. Don Estes

[@brokebassboy6857]

You said that fishing a 7.2.1 was slow? I thought that was pretty fast. Also, I think you have the best vids that I've seen so far. Just fishin, having fun and informing. Thanks!

[@Flukemaster]

It's just slow for that technique. I remember back when 6.3:1 was considered fast. I used to try to burn a lipless crank till my arm felt like it was going to fall off.

[@FunkE.Fisherman]

Sometimes I wish flukemaster was my real dad

[@harleywood72]

Looks like Jordan's ready for his own channel. A little fishin' in the morning, baseball in the evening. Fortunate kid.

[@elijahgates7210]

u should put in one day at the Dayton boat dock

[@Flukemaster]

I get up there every once in a while.

[@grksportsman7292]

I really like this kind of video where you talk about what is going on and what you're thinking about during a day of fishing. It's cool to see how you break down where the fish are and how to catch them

[@mitchholst4586]

Hey Gene, love your videos. As a newbie to bass fishing, I have learned so much from you. Im wondering if you have any tips for bass fishing in Montana this time of year? What should be the strategy?

[@WiTuLoooo]

I'm trying to get better at crank bait fishing, feel like I have confidence in soft plastics and wanted to learn another technique. Haven't had much success thus far, but have vowed to not give up. I've also taken your advice in terms of only taking that rod & lure combination to force myself to learn/fish it.

[@tatestilger3505]

Noticed you were using the new ONE3 rod and reels can we expect a review on them soon

[@jacobwynn9555]

Keep up the good work! When are you getting your new boat with the Garmin electronics on it? I have a Garmin on my boat and love it but would like to hear someone with more experience give their opinion.

[@leeroyjr5587]

Like the videos. Just subscribed. Do a video of moving lures vs other moving lures; spinner vs chatter vs cranks, which is the better "search" bait. Thanks

[@BryanTheHunter]

Fluke I need you to stop spot burning me! Lol

[@opticalriot]

no clouds, bust out the sparkles

[@osbornoutdoors8778]

That's awesome that you are including your son 👍

[@austinsohlfs1806]

That spoon is for northern fish like lakers and pike

[@reellifebassfishingalexrey1330]

i have a 4 1/2yr old daughter who ive been always takin fishing with me, she can actually cast out like 5-10ft lol she gets soo excited when i catch a bass, lovee the quality time with our kids on the water, thanks for the video, ur one of the main reasons why im able to put a smile on her face with all your tips, even tho i dont own a boat, i would love to see a "river tip" video because up here in Milwaukee,Wisconsin we mainly fish our main river for smallies, would love to hear if u got any extra tips or advice on bait selection and time of day tips to help me put more fish on the scale :-)

[@Xzanthos]

Love the videos with Jordan. I hope he's in more of these to come. I'd love to hear if you give him any instructions during your trips! I can't wait to have a son or daughter to teach how to fish one day. Thanks for the awesome video!

[@flyable7604]

Good to see Jordan learning 🎣 techniques. We can also learn some basics. Love to see family 🎣 videos.😁

[@ekybassin449]

Gene your boy cracks me up man I love the father son videos. Keep up the good work

[@RockyTopSplash]

where have you been launching your boat lately? I haven't seen you at Dayton boat dock in a while

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

you remind me of my favorite ucle taking me fishing when I was kid I would be just winding them in like that boy he has took me back to bank told my parents im putting him out the boat im tired of watching him just wind them in one after another hehehehe

[@Tracks777]

Awesome video,Keep it up!

[@jonyv14]

what are you using for a rod float? best thing I have found is copper pipe insulation. your floats seem to be way thinner and lighter

[@godofm3tal1]

Have you ever fished the CA Delta?

[@kongvang4132]

Great video. it's an enjoyment to see kids catching fishes too. Q: How come your other 2 boys aren't in this video? Do you only take one at a time? just wondering.

[@Flukemaster]

With all the camera equipment in the boat it is impossible to get more than one in the boat and film at the same time. When we fun fish I take two of them and when we fish as a family we take the kayaks.

[@uniquehomecustom]

don't feel bad man my boy busts my ass all the time. and a matter a fact I almost enjoy it as much as he does because I know deep down I taught him right. keep up the family videos man that's were it's at. thanks for the vids

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks Sean.

[@danegeeding5210]

Sean Burnett i wish my dad fished.. would love to kick his ass 😅

[@jurahf2k287]

Sean Burnett i wish i had a dad

[@jeffscott7187]

My son is my fishing buddy and yes they do learn fast and love to stick it to dad.

[@jerryfranks8765]

Hey gene you taught me some things a didn't know I thank you and keep up the good work

[@sav6920]

Hey Gene, Iv learned a lot from watching your videos! I have been looking for a really good travel Rod for bass fishing any recommendations?

[@Flukemaster]

A good travel rod is hard to find because there really isn't a huge demand for them. The best thing is to contact a custom rod builder and see if he can make you one.

[@cobyfuson]

Hey flukemaster, thanks for all the help you have given us. Me and my dad went to a tournament on West Point Lake and I caught a 5.9 lb bass. That is the biggest fish that any of us have ever caught. God and you are to thank for that fish. We love your videos. Thanks!!!

[@josephacker5716]

How and when do you decide to use a minnow style versus a shad style crank or jerk bait and how do you present it to the bass?

[@strungoutonfishing5386]

Do you know anything about ponds with fountains

[@Jinksmusicuniverse]

I'd love to ask you a fishing question, but I'm currently looking for an audio solution and yours is pretty good. I'm curious, is your mic plugged in directly to your GoPro? Is it wireless or are you recording audio separately and syncing in post? You don't seem to be dragging a chord around; thankfully, that would suck. If you don't mind could you elaborate a touch on your audio set up? I promise next time I'll ask about fishing.

[@poolecw]

odd... I fish that same spot but i usually am swarmed by jet skiers.

[@charleswooten9836]

Gene, I get my teeth kicked in on clear lakes, Carters and Blue Ridge. What is your thought on hiring a guide to show deep clear water techniques. Is the money really worth it?

[@tonyromano6675]

Hey Gene enjoy your editing, well informative, simple of what you use, lures used n why. Tips have added to my fishing. Keep up the great videos👍😎

[@mckmh07167]

Gene, what is the best way to fish a heavily pressured area? I live in Fayetteville NC and all the lakes here are very over fished. Do you have any tips? Also I am bank fishing. Thanks

[@jacobd8613]

Is that Plant Votgle behind y’all? I’m in sc and used to work there back in the day

[@Flukemaster]

I think this was on Lake Chickamauga in Tennessee

[@matthewflair7406]

nice video I love your content

[@jakeorr23]

What is the advantage of copolymer or what situations would you use it in

[@btolton3419]

What knot do you use for that swim bait? i usually use the rapala knot.

[@BassGeek]

The ledges should be on fire with a football jig and a big shaky head. They may still eat a swimbait. You need current or/and wind to catch'me on the blade right now.

[@nickp11ps5]

great video, love when you involve your kid.

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks Nick

[@Stacychuck1]

Are the grass and weeds in your lake? If so, how do you deal with that fact.

[@frdhenderson56]

What kind of camera are you using and how is it setup?

[@Hiei1029]

Crankbait, spinnerbait and now underspin my favorite way to fish. Yesterday underspin destroyed them. Slow and stead on the bottom. Love your videos!

[@hellopotatoes1234]

Flukemaster I picked up a StrikekingRage rage blade how would you fish it properly

[@Flukemaster]

[@francisd2386]

Gene, unrelated by I'd throw it out anyways. I've you ever had, or known someone that had serious headaches the day after spending a day out there on the water ? I try to keep hydrated so I don't think that's the problem. I wear a hat too. But it's starting to be a concern, specially when I go out Sundays then I'm completely destroyed on Mondays. It's always the day after.

[@Flukemaster]

It sounds like you need a good pair of sunglasses. The glare of the sun off the water can be brutal.

[@francisd2386]

Yeah, I've got those cheap Walmart clip-ons for now. They "work" as in they remove the immediate annoyance of sun glares, but perhaps some UVs still get in my eyes and cause some kind of stress.

[@rollievancleave7753]

You're spending a lot of time on Chickamauga. Did you move there or still live in Georgia?

[@Flukemaster]

I moved to Northwest Georgia. I'm not far from Chic so I go their a lot.

[@rollievancleave7753]

That's cool! We hit The Chick 2-4 times a year (from Knoxville). I know there are some community holes around the power plant. FYI: we did good on main channel bluff walls a little past the Harrison Bay area, towards the dam (maybe three miles south of the Harrison Bay State Park marina), this past spring. Don't know if the bass are still there now, but you may want to check it out. Good luck, I have learned a lot from your videos so keep them coming.

[@JJ-bl8tp]

Braid with a mono leader for swimbaits works well. Use flurocarbon if water is gin clear. Leader length 8-10 ft.

[@Typhoonbladefist]

Is that a nuclear reactor in the background?

[@nathanharden5734]

What was the first reel you where using?

[@blaketipton4748]

Why don't you fish tournaments?

[@TJSahut]

Hey FLUKEMASTER I have a question about the 13 Fishing Origin reel youre using. I own the Concept A and was wondering how they compare since the price is about 70-80 dollars.

[@Flukemaster]

The Origins are a great entry level reel. The don't compare to the Concept reels.

[@reellifebassfishingalexrey1330]

im in the market for some new rods, i think i wanna grab atleast 2, 3(if the price is right) i need an "all around MH", 1 cranking stick and would like a Heavy rod to start froggin and flippin a lil bit....what are the rods that you are using if u dont mind?? i just got a lews tournament mb and absolutely lovee it, but i know ur a 13fishing guy, do i have to get the most expensive ones or are sum of the cheaper reels good to use??

[@fissionmission2438]

keep fishing with Jordan. Loved fishing with my Pop when I was young.

[@Jo3yGames]

A fish appears at the 3:32 mark with a pink tail, then dissappear after like 5 seconds lol.

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

do you ever fish tournments?

[@Flukemaster]

Maybe a benefit tournament here or there or one I can do just for fun but that's it.

[@hillbillybassfisherman8181]

I feel you I just love to fish I use to skip school just to go fishing...I been hooked since I was in diapers I caught 8lb bass on a big 12 inch worm with a 2o2 in clarkhill

[@MrJcarter1994]

how come you reel bait casters right handed and spin casting reels left handed just curious?

[@Flukemaster]

I don't have a good answer. It just works for me. I've tried the other ways and it never felt right.
