Love that floating set up. Very cool video. Nice bass in this one.

[@deathmaker2088]

NICE BASS!!!!! so there is some monsters in that lake....

[@FishandForage]

Oh yeah, had to wade through a bunch of dinks to get her, though haha

[@ReelFishingPNW]

Some times it be like that! CONGRATS on the first bass of the year and on catching that big mama 🥳🥳

[@FishandForage]

Thanks, man! At least it wasn't ALL bad that day for sure! ;)

[@OverlandPNW]

That was a heck of a day ! Yes to getting Bertha!

[@FishandForage]

She was a beaut! Thanks for watching!

[@joshandhuntersadventures5046]

That is a good one thanks for sharing keep it up

[@FishandForage]

Of course! Thank YOU for watching!

[@riverrightoutdoors]

Nice pontoon and day, Go pros have there ups and downs for sure. great vid.

[@FishandForage]

Dude no kidding! I actually decided to upgrade to a newer model. Hoping it's more stable, but I'm reading some stuff here and there about how even the newer ones are buggy... Only time will tell! Thanks for watching!

[@Bloodsport83125]

That was a nice bass bro!

[@FishandForage]

Big Bertha!

[@pdxfishing6840]

Man so great to see you stretching some lip! Sucks to see it came to the expense of a broken rod tho! I've recently started fishing Pheonix rods and I'm really liking the quality! I currently own 2 of their spinning rods, no casting yet tho so I can't say anything first handidly of their casting section, but I'd imagine they'd be pretty good like their spinning selection. Nice chunky Bertha man! Lets get it!

[@FishandForage]

I think I saw those at Sportsmans, but shied away since I hadn't heard much about them before. I ended up picking up a Lews Mach IM7 (Or something like that!) and I am really digging it. I got one that's a little less stuff and the action on the rod tip when using moving baits is real nice so far 🔥🔥 More bass incoming! Let's go!

[@yeamanizer]

Nice fish! Man, I might want to sell my SLX combo after watching this....

[@FishandForage]

I love the reel! But the rod seems a bit iffy... I ended up picking up a Lews and I'm digging it so far with the SLX reel. We'll see how it holds up!

[@hookjawhunters9419]

Well fed for sure 💪! Nice job bro !

[@FishandForage]

Thanks! That momma's gotta make more berthas!

[@hookjawhunters9419]

@@FishandForage heck yea !

[@jedibill111]

That sucks about the rod. I tend to spend a bit more on my rods and go for a good graphite. I Have had my Berkleys for years without any problems. Granted they were not cheep. So to buy them today they would be around $300 Canadian more or less but again, they have lasted for years and years.

[@FishandForage]

I feel that. As I get older, I keep telling myself "Buy once, cry once" for many things. Higher quality usually ends up paying off in the long run! Thanks for the watch!

[@clarenceclay6669]

try KastKing rods

[@FishandForage]

I've heard good things! I just picked up a Lews and I am digging it so far!

[@clarenceclay6669]

@@FishandForage Nice! I just bought a KastKing centron complete for twitching salmon, hopefully it works. I want to use it for bass too though. its a 7'6 , med-heavy

[@FishandForage]

@@clarenceclay6669 that's about what I use for twitching! I'd imagine it'd work great!

[@Dirtymaxxx88]

Where in the pnw are ya? I'm in Washington

[@FishandForage]

Also WA! Hard state to beat ;)
