slamming blues with Mike Fouch at Shortys paylake

[@gkhin1990]

What kind of hooks do you use? Type and size? I've been missing a bunch of fish lately on the initial hookset.

[@reallifeoutdoorsshannonbla1695]

I use 3/0 gamakatsu octopus hooks

[@gkhin1990]

@reallifeoutdoorsshannonbla1695 I guess I need to go smaller because I use a Owner octopus hook in a 6/0 😅

Good stuff as always Shannon….I thought that big blue you caught was going to be in this video….I’m thinking about going to shortys this Thursday for the first time ever….how deep was you fishing shannon

[@reallifeoutdoorsshannonbla1695]

I'm working on a video that has some big fish on it. But the 59 I caught I wasnt filming it was raining to much. I was fishing on the bottom. But 10 11 foot is good as well.

@@H3yItzChris how deep do you fish and how do you put your bluegill and goldfish on your hook

[@H3yItzChris]

Find the bottom and come up about 6 inches ..Small ones through the eyes big ones through the back

[@H3yItzChris]

But if you're not getting any bites you need to come up a foot at a time trying to find the fish

[@reallifeoutdoorsshannonbla1695]

Yeah what he said. As far as depth goes that's something you got to play with. I've caught them from 2 foot to 20 foot. And on bottom. But usually 12 foot is good starting point

[@timfarris6801]

Man o man Shannon them was real nice fish and that's when you catch them gooderns when the weather is bad like that .have a good one buddy

That's tough. I take all kinds of different baits with me I like variety. But I'd say prob crawfish tails. Catches little fish and big fish.

What’s your review on the panthers? You like them better than moonsnipers? And why if so

Yes I do , one they are super light carbon fiber rods. They seem to have a great back bone I've caught 5 fish over 50 lbs on them and they worked very well. And the price you cant beat the price
