Great video! Stoked about our trip to the Delta, in early August🤩

[@backlashangling]

Thanks so much! Hope you guys have an amazing trip!

[@DanielSon69]

Thank you for releasing the 25” female at the end👍🏼. I’ll be up this spring to find her 😎 Subscribed!

[@backlashangling]

Absolutely, let em go let em grow! Hopefully you found her!

You consistently have the best intros on your videos. Thank you for sharing your adventures on the French.

[@backlashangling]

Really appreciate that, thanks for watching!

So what species can't you find in the wonderful French? I had no idea that gar pike were in there? Thanks for the video folks and try not to hit the fish you're trying to land in the head unless it's part of your strategy. Any tips for a late Sept. trip on the Upper, looking for bass and walleye?

[@backlashangling]

Right there are so many different species it's crazy! Truly a world class fishery! Come September the walleye should still be on they summer shoals and flats near deeper water, small jaws should be along any rocky shore lines!

[@noahverra6364]

Were you guys fishing above or below dalles rapids? Sweet spot

[@backlashangling]

That’s above Dallas!

[@dustinst.george1617]

Omg that net job on the gar was hard to watch. Great video though!

[@backlashangling]

Hahaha real tough one! Thanks for watching

[@tjm242]

If you don't mind me asking, where did you all stay?

[@backlashangling]

We stay at a family friends cottage! Launched out of Hartley Bay

Great video. I’m going to the French River this weekend. I haven’t been there for 50 years. Canoeing the Elephants. Any suggestions for bait and lures would be so appreciated.

[@backlashangling]

Thanks so much for watching, if I was to suggest 3 baits I would say to have a Double 8 set of blades, a top water of some sort, we love to use the plopper styles and a swim bait of some sort! Our go to is the Poseidon from Chaos tackle! Best of luck, tight lines!
