Spring Bank Fishing with a Jerkbait (Bass LOVE THIS!)

[@pcheek68]

This was the video I've been waiting for. Jerkbaits from the bank. You just don't see many folks trying it, or sticking with it

[@tedthilly1934]

All the time for me year around in Chicago area

[@Grimey_Fishing]

Now *I* want a pistol grip, Debo! Heather will understand. She didn't mean it yesterday when she asked how many rods I need. Even if she did, I told her I need all of them, so I'm covered.

[@JerryN856]

Just finished planting corn yesterday so now I can get out and get after them. And from the look of things it's about the right time. Thanks for sharing.

[@jerrystatic256]

The Provoke has become one of my favorite lures.

[@rvfishingyet]

Another fun day on the bank with Debo! Thanks for fighting through the cold, weather and slow start. Get better!

[@BrodieBassin]

ive been catching them on a wacky worm as their spawning! I find it funny you have a big box of reels in the corner of your room!

[@pastor7ray]

Thanks for the great instruction and encouragement. Had an old black and silver Rapala my father passed down to me that I didn't know how to fish. I normally just fish soft plastics. After watching your video yesterday, I tried it out this evening and caught 2 bass with it. Thanks again.

[@MrUCL]

Debo I am a long time watcher and subscriber. This is your best day in a while. Congrats on finding the juice.

[@garrettmccoy6863]

Feel better soon! Keep crushing it as is your usual! My better half caught an 8-lb Hawg using a paddle tail swimbait right off our back patio. First and best fish she’s ever caught! Now she shows me up!!

[@AlwaysApproved]

jigs, cranks, and jerkbaits been the move so far for me in eastern iowa and western illinois

[@elliottcutright]

Feel better Debo. Wacky worm is cleaning up here these days!

[@FishingwithAllyG]

Got my first bank and creek kit in the mail...can't wait to get to the lake!!!

[@whiteyxj8367]

Heck yeah love seeing the Debo catching some feesh! Swim jig/Swim baits and flukes have been killing it for me with a under spin or the finesse little willow blade chatterbait thing from Zman has been a killer too

[@ThePokecardmaster1]

love the 6th sense provoke, its the lure that got me into the company and bass fishing in general

[@polychris5961]

Smashed em from the bank debo. Hell yeah

[@ronaldthomas7918]

I like your video. Peaceful, smoothe, and kept moving forward Thanks a Lot Ron In Los Angeles

[@tedthilly1934]

Jerk bait is my go to everything hits them

[@pacman_17]

Guessing the weight of the bass is just as fun as catching them.

[@SD-wo2gx]

Another good one Mr DEBO, hope you feel better soon!

[@richardblake4777]

I remember using speed sticks with pistol grips back around 1960. Wish I still had them. You actually slayed them on this outing and I think that last one was close to 3 lbs. Really an enjoyable video. Debo. Thanks for sharing.

[@willtrax71]

Only thing working is the little Yum Dingers on a couple little guys or galls and despite the Illness the Baritone Voice is soothing my friend. Great Video Debo stay safe and well and of course Semper Fidelis

[@MaineStreamFishing]

Crush 50x been killing it for me and the Magic work

[@michaelrohde1112]

Great to see the pistol grip rod. That used to be the rule rather than the exception back in the day.

[@vinceabarca]

Beeen waiting for this all week!!!!

[@poppy.fishing]

It looked like a fun day fishing! Don't forget to change your battery.

[@BassinWithBigMalone]

Great video!! Jerk bait is a great bite!! Just thought I'd add a "Shut up Randy" in there! Best lure for 2023 so far for me DROPSHOT

[@tombrewster54]

And the jerkbait for the win! Nicely done Debo.

[@benwilkey2060]

It’s been another wacky rig spring for me!

[@farrzmd3038]

Jerkbait bites are fun. Great video …. Winter / early spring was crankbaits and drop shot…. Lately it’s been swim jigs and weightless robo worms ….. love the look of the 6th sense provokes, been let down by them and megabass. Saved up to buy 7 between to the two companies and I only have two that work. One 6th sense and one megabass. The rest sank right right to the bottom.

[@yo-bass-cat4027]

Awesome tuneage at the end makes me want to watch an old western. Audie Murphie maybe. My lure for this year has been a .5 oz pitching jig with a twin tail grub caught the biggest and most so far for me. Love the videos as always and get to feeling better.

[@emptyh1145]

Jerkbait caught everything in Wisconsin this past week, now I need to try it in Iowa!

[@chrisrus53]

Its a bummer when the scale dies. That's when you have to take a pic with a friend in the background for reference. 😅 I probably should have tried a jerkbait today. The big ones were moving up but extremely stubborn. Great vid fella!

[@jamiebell4300]

Nice catches Debo! I'll take that size bass all day, on a lighter combo they are super fun😎 I have an old school Ugly stick pistol grip rod I'll have to dust off and give the jerkbait some more play time. Hope you're feeling better soon!

[@stevesmith7164]

Good video Debo, I'd take those bass all day long

[@gregchilders7643]

Love that pistol grip. I have a eagle claw Featherlite 4ft 10in light action with 6 lb mono use it with 1/8oz spinnerbaits and 1/4 oz jerkbaits, crankbaits and topwaters .

[@JeremyMartin-xq7pb]

Jerk bait has been killing it for me all spring. Had a 50+ fish smallmouth session last Sunday. Had a 30+ fish largemouth session a week before that. Not huge fish but numbers like I don't usually experience.

[@thomaslangdale4915]

Good day of fishing!!

[@synaptik111]

Looks like you had a great day/night for you Debo! I've been using poppers mostly; got to step up my jerkbait game for sure

[@Nick_Hunter2]

Looks like a great day to me man! That pistol grip is wild lol

[@davidwilliams1805]

You flat out rock Debo! Thanks for sharing some great baits and great information. You smashed some good ones! Keep doing what you brother! Hope you feel better soon. #DEBO'SFishing rocks!

[@EddieLindsay681]

I have been killing it catching smallmouth on 3” and 3.75” Keitech style swimbaits

[@all-americanlambs1596]

Thanks for the most recent video drop. Enjoy the Sprite for recovery! Enjoyed a Smithwick Rattlin’ Rogue earlier this year at the pond. Lately a chartreuse spinnerbait with a green pumpkin strike king rage swimmer trailer has been keeping the bass coming to the bank.

[@davidrauschenbach6871]

Putting spare battery in tackle bag now! Fine catches all day for you! A lot of big belly fish! Still have my ugly stick pistol grip with a quantum QD 310 on it! May upgrade graphite bushings to bearings when they wear out🤣😂😂 Still sling lures just fine!

[@jjgolden4230]

You're killing it, Debo!

[@poeanglersfishingwithbrian8361]

Hope you feel better 😊

[@bobjohnston5527]

I am also a riverbank fisherman here in Fredericton New Brunswick. We are not allowed to have more than one rod fishing from the riverbank. I carry a second reel with me. I have the Quantum smoke rod with micro line guides and Quantum smoke S3 baitcaster with 7.3 with Sufix siege mono 10lbs and 14lbs on my other reel

[@danorak7797]

Dude please keep up with the great videos, I'm living through you and a few other fishing tubers because I'm laid up with ACL surgery and can't get out and its killing me!

[@pacman_17]

Jerbait reminds me of late fall fishing 🤣

[@Triple87]

I slammed a bunch of small mouth 2 weeks ago out of Lake Ontario. I couldn’t get them to eat anything other than a jerkbait. Bunch of 3 and 4’s, and one 5lbs smallie. Also hooked into a handful of brown trout on vision 110’s. Jerkbaits are key baits in the spring time.

[@borisdoore1041]

Enjoyed the video Debo, the jerk bait was killing it ! I have been using the jerkbait and lipless extensively since mid January into this spring and have had huge success ! Actually have caught 2 over 5lbs in March , 1 on vision 110 @5 lbs 5oz and 1 on Rayburn red matte finish one knocker lipless @ 5lbs.6 oz ( pb that I had actually scaled) I'm from central Ohio so anything over 5 lbs is huge 🙂. Hardly ever used a jerkbait until this year and will always have one tied on now 🎣🙂

[@chrismcvey908]

I’ve had alot of success with Jerks as well. I’ve also been using the Nikko craw and hellgrammite with some success. Hope you’re feeling better Mr Christian

[@ButchIsFalse]

Put 17 in the boat today , in 5 hrs.. all on jerkbait….vision 110s… my favorites..post spawn probably all fry guarders..local lake… my go to spring bait personally.. great job 👍

[@neilgwinn7378]

Good video. Hope you feel better buddy

[@KCJonesn2Fish]

Been catching them on the Berkley Pit Boss, Texas Rigged while flipping Lilly Pads

[@noahledbetter3969]

Sounds like a giveaway!!🎉

[@losingbigfish9473]

Awesome video

[@JCB8689]

Ive been catching everything on a paddletail so far. Think I caught my pb today but my thumb was slipping and I didn’t wanna drop her, needed a selfie still. No time for the scale😢 she was so heavy I took a knee to unhook her just incase she wild out. ‘Twas a good morning. Always fun catching em from the bank with a massive bass boat audience😂.

[@oldschoolbassman4590]

Nice video as always. I've been getting bites on the thunder cricket, and pit boss lately. Seems they are all over the place, pre spawn. I look for the little holes near the water that the craws emerge from. As soon as they look like muddy ant hills, the craws have moved into the water, and start foraging on them. Then it's pretty much Texas rigged craw baits till the spawn.

[@mikem8502]

Nothing fancy but a zman TRD Ned rig up shallow. Bass have baitfish in the back of pockets and are feeding up and I caught about 20 or 30 fish in a single day last week.

[@imboredidid1]

Hey Debo, what are the advantages and disadvantages of a pistol grip rod? my grandfather gave me an old pistol grip pan-fish rod that I still haven't tried, but want to put into action soon.

[@gregchilders7643]

I have a lod school 4ft 10 in eagle claw Featherlite pistol grip with a bps pro finnesse baitcaster with 6lb test .I'm a bank fisherman and the pistol grip is good for jerkbaits due to you don't have to worry about the rod handle hitting your forearm when you twitch and it is good for roll casting under overhanging branches. Throw a bfs reel on that rod and go have some fun

[@kickinitoutdoors5782]

Chatter bait, Underspin with swimbait trailer, Runing a squire bill but using it more like a jerk bait action its working great!

[@danielpomponio4967]

The megabass vision 110 jr. Was the deal for me last week. Elegy bone and gold black back were the main colors. Caught my first 5# bass on a green pumpkin blue flake 3.5" cover scat. Hope you feel better.

[@LucidoMafia]

A great vid. I have had no luck with a jerkbait

[@brianlee9074]

Hope you feel better soon man. That last one was definitely the best one of the day, close to 3 pounds for sure. The jerkbait got my year started right, catching fish all winter. Right now it's an Owner Flashy Swimmer with a 3.8 keitech in the color alewife. Caught my pb last week. Not a tank, but 4.8 pound lmb is good for me. Get well soon don't worry about making videos. 🤜🤛🎣😎

[@brianmetzger745]

Love using 6th sense gear! Have you used BioSpawn would you consider a review on that?

[@garyivanbringino]

what's your thoughts on the Revo gen 5?

[@frankcornacchia8637]

Always carry extra AA or AAA batteries in that backpack!!!

[@nickrodrigues7099]

2032s. I have the same scale and said low battery last week. Barely even use it. @debosfishing put a piece o 'lectric tape on it when not on the water🤓 All in all thats an awesome day feeshin

[@brucenichols9206]

Have to try the old cheap code on the scale give the batteries a spin I can usually finish the day if I remember to actually bring the scale

[@MaineStreamFishing]

Threw a Jerkbait on yesterday and picked up a few fish

[@eeveelutionlover4344]

Hey that that's pistol grip one that u got sometime over the winter

[@NStone90]

Spring time? Shoot its basically summer here in Texas and I'm already over it. I haven't had a day like this with the jerkbait, but the bite is unlike any other. Similar to a frog or topwater.

[@SolidMango-gh3jk]

So what color 106x was that ? Ghost bone minnow ?

[@caroferg8857]

Yikes heal up Debo! Jerk bait. I don’t think of them till I watch one of your vids then I try it then forget lol

[@jamesp2674]

Don't forget that 1.5 to 2 lb average is what some people would love to catch! I 99% of the time catch half pounders! Feel better, brother!

[@jjgolden4230]

I still have a pistol grip rod from the late 80s.

[@antonymartinez9322]

🎣🐟 Gotta do another drop shot video again Debo 😂 Jk

[@pacman_17]

I crossed paths with 4lbers twice in a week on the spinnerbait. The conditions was right they need to get fat for the spawn. Hope you get better soon.

[@rgdayo]

Caught my first ever Drum, an 18"er! Throwing a spinnnerbait with the Debo colored D-Bomb trailer. Still not exactly sure how I managed to do that.

[@paulbrownjr8676]

Don’t feel bad Debo, I went probably 5 months without so much as a bite

[@mikebanks6704]

Here in Southern New York by the border of Pennsylvania the jerkbait and weighted bladed 4/0 with a kvs swim-n-shad swimbait slay most of the season I caught a healthy 5lber on the bladed swimbait early mark just rolling it real slow

[@gatorsadventures2298]

2, CR 2032 batteries for the scale, or at least that's the ones that fit my scale. I had to change mine last week.

[@randallpinkfloyd7225]

I catch 5 pounders all day………ahem when I’m carp fishing. 😇

[@JoshB-Fishin]

I’m still trying to figure out jerkbaits. It seems that most I’ve found rise pretty quickly, even the “suspending” ones? Or is that normal for them and my lack of experience with them is obvious? Hahaha

[@fatguybassin8046]

Dang good videbo! Maybe I should try jerk bait from the bank 🎣🎣🔥🔥

[@timtweet8149]

Head cold. Take something like a hot totty

[@mikelon1010]

I had one of those lightning rods and it broke on me fishing a jerkbait and hooked into a PB.

[@rogerleonard5351]

Enjoy your vids, you come across as the guy next door, not some tourney pro.

[@losingbigfish9473]

I’ve been knocking him dead with the drop shot, and the under spin don’t hate me

[@dennisstewart7849]

That jerk bait combo appears to be a left handed set up to me. I am left handed, and I cast with my left hand and retrieve with my right hand. Seems simple to me. I know the retrieve is right hand, but sometimes descriptions just get in the way.

[@GLNZFishing]

You changed the outro music! I dont do well with change.

[@WyattShootsFilm]

I have yet to try a jerkbait

[@dwightshelford3061]

Funny to see the eyes on that 6th sense bait are a copy of the Megabass 110. I still remember Millikens video about Googan ripping off 6th sense. Obviously 6th sense does it too. They all do. I can stand that Milliken guy though he’s why I won’t ever buy any 6th sense products.

[@AGuyNamedRicky]

This was supposed to be my week off to go fishing, instead I got the Rona and can’t tie my shoes without needing a rest

[@michaelm5203]

2lbs is the new 5lbs just ask debo

[@AdventureswithaaronB]

I know no one cares, but actually first for once

[@ke3552]

Pistol grip? Heathen Boomer! 😂

[@barrymckinney4347]

Jerkbait has been slow. Most consistent has been spro little John and spro lipless.

[@umami0247]

Not into these commercials you can’t opted out of.
