Never a doubt in my mind with worms! I went fishing yesterday, had only eight earthworms, caught three long ear sunfish while everyone else just stole my bait, casted to the other side of the creek; snagging my BOBBER and WHOLE RIG INTO THE GRASS, having to snap that off, and got neon green worm guts everywhere. That’s a REALISTIC DAY. I always use snag help from you, NEVER cut the line right at your f’ing rod tip just so some other guy has to deal with your SPOOLED reel. I pulled it till it snapped, then fished more of the line out of the water and tugged at it again to grab some extra OUT of the water and AWAY from hazardous wildlife.

Hey i love the videos! Hoping for little insight if your game and have time. I fish a marshy type spot that is hot hot hot for sunfish and the occasional blue gill during the late spring, summer and early fall. I use the same set up as you in this video. Once it Gets cold no Mas, no fish no bites. I guess my question is when it's cold go deeper or go more shallow? also you may have said it but what is the rough water temp when you filmed this? I ask as I am in Southern Canada and am guessing the water is colder here. Love your videos keep doing what your doing!
