MICRO Crankbait Catches a MONSTER!!! - You WON'T Believe What I Caught!

[@stevenburge293]

Who else wants to see a " See ya later buddy" T-shirt

[@RealTalkWithMitch]

I use single hooks on all my lures, I just find it causes less injury to the fish and less potential for me to get hooked in the finger at the same time. its a win, win.

[@overtheedge9298]

Mitchell Franker The same for me. Multiple treble hooks on a lure are a pain in the ass, and the chances of a fish still living on a single hook are much better.

My 8 year old little girl liked how your shirt matched the lure. I told her you're a Baller like that. 👍👊

[@mswen1983]

As a general rule, lures that will catch catfish work amazingly well for other species. Catfish do hunt live prey, esp when there's a high predator-prey ratio.

[@johnkaiser1293]

you are definitely my favorite fishing youtuber. i live in a place where bass are not popular and crappie are so seeing you catch crappies in types of ponds that i could fish in is a lot more fun then bass.

[@MannyGnz]

Nice one man! Keep it up! Always looking foward to your next video

[@618Fishing]

i appreciate you watchin!

[@bn7sc497]

No rattle could be an advantage these days because pretty much every lure has a rattle and so many fish can associate something bad with that rattle and also the big fish (that weren't caught and eaten) are obviously the ones, that naturally don't react/ are interested to/ in rattles...

[@rhutchski]

I've always loved using small lures, small flies and little crankbaits. It's amazing what you can catch. Till next time.

[@bobsmith9875]

Yo can make your lure rattle by drilling a small hole in a inconspicuous spot place a a bb or small bead depending on strength of desired rattle and seal with epoxy.

[@grandwonder5858]

Where’s the link to that tiny crankbait that you told us you were going to give us?

[@monkeyman4131]

Looks like the E-Bay crank bait paid off ! I have caught catfish on a top water " Flatfish Lure " before ! Crazy I know. The new hook helped out too. Nice going Nick , Tom Daytona Beach, FL.

thanks David!

[@cloutdoors5674]

Great video man. Try the bomber "fat A" very small crankbait but gets strikes from all size fish. Have to use 4 lb mono to really even be able to cast it well. The rebel crawdad lures are great too

I like that pond. I'd catch a few of those blue gill and go catfishing.

Looks like those cats are spawning, I’ve caught 2 cats recently one on a tube and one on a jig lol

Ok, at 1:36 when you are talking about how crazy the action is on the lure, is that a fish that almost gulps it down?

Hi, i really enjoy watching your vids. Just wanna say thanks for your effort making these videos and keep up the awesome work catching those beautiful fish. Greetings from Rotterdam, Holland. ✌🏽

[@twistednrg6293]

That's why I luv tiny crankbaits! Hook small fish all day and it still fires up the big ones aswell.. Awesome as always bud and I'll catch you in the next one 🤙

[@TrollinOntheRVA]

Channel Goals!! Keep Grindin brutha! You deserve a Milli

[@Charsept]

Saw that thumbnail, saw that hook, thought, "Japanese lure?" Just got back from a vacation there and barbed hooks are like unicorns there. Nearly everything I looked at had a hook like that one. Also lures are *_expensive_* in tokyo...

[@cooorsbanq4226]

Japanese uses these type of lures for trout and smaller species. There's a whole section of them at the tackleshop near my home in Japan. Also their tackle may be expensive but will beat anything from the states.

[@618Fishing]

yep i ordered a handful of baits from the seller on ebay and almost every one had the same barbless hook

[@ismaelcarranzaortiz9541]

Sometimes the fact that the lure is rattle less, it's actually a good thing. Another great video as always! Greetings from Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

[@truckerstyle316]

Man your micro videos are awesome! I started picking up micro baits and started fishing them because of your videos! Keep it up buddy!

It's great to realize that when you consistently catch fish that you would never starve.

[@dougalexander7204]

I was hoping you’d catch your old net.... stay awesome.

[@beachamboy11]

I grew up fishing the Cahaba River next to my house in Central Alabama. You usually caught bass about 1lb-1.5lbs. I remember catching a 3lb spotted bass and it felt like I had caught a world record. Now I catch 3+ lb largemouth on a regular. I miss those days.

[@flyinbrianz22]

Some of the biggest catfish I've ever caught were by accident. I've caught them on jigs and on a Panther Martin. Another great vid!

[@Freedom-vh5ne]

I just want to say I’ve really enjoyed your videos and since I started watching them I’ve picked up an ultralight and one of the lures you suggested (it was that yo zuri snap bean)… I landed a 5 pound channel cat on 10 pound test and many other fish in my kayak and it was one of the best days of not the best day of fishing I’ve had. Awesome advice, thanks for taking us on your adventures and showing us how to have fun 🙂 now I have to buy this lure too 😂

[@goldsmithfishingadventures8537]

[@EnriqueSantiagofly]

Wow. Very beautiful fish small and big. Great!

[@tussk.]

I bought a load of these from china for a few pennies each, went out fishing just to see if they worked, and caught around 12 pike and countless perch in a couple of hours. Theyre absolutely deadly. Almost every cast was followed in by a shoal of fish, fighting one another to take the lure. It was crazy, and Ive never seen anything like it. My only gripe is that being so small, the pike inhale it and it can be hard to unhook them. I did the opposite from you though, and swapped from a treble to a single to make it easier and get the fish back in the water faster. Theyre great fun.

[@flyemifyougotem9543]

[@rmendoza4890]

Im more of a river fishing type of guy so im used to all type of catfish, they are my favorite to fish. They put more of a fight, and take more time to catch in my opinion.

[@618Fishing]

i agree, catfish put up a really good fight.. so much fun to catch

[@shelbyherring92]

Haven't made the switch to ultralight, but I have started fishing with faster-lighter action rods and medium ranged line... And yeah, managed to land a 20 pound carp on some cheap Zebco gear - easily the most fun I've had lately.

[@lmramos44]

A few years back, while trolling a snap bean crank bait, I caught a 14 pound channel cat. A complete surprise since I was targeting trout.

I've caught a 5 lb. and a 3 lb. catfish on a little beetle spin before. It's not that uncommon, but a whole lot of fun.

[@joehall7869]

Great time. Lots of fun. So what did the crank bait cost you?

[@618Fishing]

it was around $11 before shipping i believe... shipping was $9, but since i bought a handful of other baits from the same seller i only got charged for shipping once

[@joehall7869]

Thanks for responding

I love the micro lures look at euro tackle they have some good stuff

[@dhuze66]

What is that lure? I want one. I use that same rod with a Shimano Stradic 1000. I love fishing with micro lures. My friends keep telling me they are too small, then I show them fish I catch with them. I have pulled a few 2 1/2 lb bass in through lily pads with it. It takes some patience, just have to finesse them on top before pulling them in.

[@calebkoch1054]

Cool video

[@SKC640]

I am not sure why people think smaller lures won't catch big fish, but I am from MN so ice fishing is quite a different experience with what you use than open water. One of my biggest fish was a 48 in northern on a small almost tiny spoon I use for walleyes. Now that I think of it all my pb northerns have been on smaller spoons and cranks. In my area we get to go sturgeon fishing and can catch 70 in plus monsters and we just catch them on a signal hook and a worm or night crawler. Don't get me wrong theres nothing wrong with using big baits especially when you know there's bigger fish in the waters then it can be easier to sort through them to get to the bigger fish. Some of my biggest baits I use I have caught some of the smallest fish on them i have rapalas that have caught northerns on and they are longer than the fish lmfao. That's just the fun part about fishing no matter what baits you use and the best technology you still don't know what size or what species you'll hook into. That makes its part of the excitement! Keep up the great content I definitely would rather watch this than the shit on WFN now days.
