Steelhead VS Baby Bass

Steelhead fishing in frigid temps, and biting wind. We boated some beautiful fish regardless. Most action came on jigs, and of course "The Baby Bass."

[@waikarimoana]

Well done boys as always a top day fishing,good looking fish and big submarines,almost as big as our BTs HAHAH. Regards from NZ boys.

[@SalmaxKayak]

Thumbs way up for the baby bass apparently, lol

[@googooba12]

[@ChristopherThuss_Fishing]

No

[@dnov1o8]

BABY BASS! FYI..Don't tell people about the baby bass...it's a secret! LOL

[@uramag7]

LOL BT's

[@RigoWilliam]

What kind of pin is your buddy using? I recognize the islander but I can't recognize his reel

[@andresolide3400]

Hi you guys are so luky overhir in Motreal Quebc the waters are all frozen stif :-0

[@airborne307sapper]

JB, Where have you been? I havent had my Wednesday Consummate Sportsman fix in a few weeks. Another great video thanks for sharing. What did you think of the Rose Bowl, at one point I jumped off the couch and almost knocked the celing fan off the celing. Spartan Basketball is looking really good this year. Steve

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Hey Steve! Life's been a bit hectic lately, so not a lot of time for fishing, unfortunately. That Rose Bowl game was awesome, wasn't it? It's a great time to be a Spartan fan!

[@alexdymond8405]

Also should ask, what size floats do you use for the river (I believe its the Manistee) you fish? 12g? 14g? You should also maybe do a video where you talk about your steelhead gear, shotting patterns, etc. Maybe combine the jig tying video with a sort of gear talk. Thanks for the response earlier; tight lines!

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Yeah, we run Raven fast & deep's #3 (11g).

[@alexdymond8405]

If you don't mind another Michigan 'Pinner asking, what is the baby bass made of? Is it a palmered olive on white jig? Also, you should make vids of yourself tying some of your steelhead jigs; definitely something I would watch, please respond.

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Hey Alex. You're close. Play around with your color combos and see what works for you. That's all we do. Maybe someday soon we'll do a jig tying vid. Tight lines!

Steelhead hybrid of trout and salmon i bet they taste great i hate salmon but love trout so steelhead is like a giant trout

[@somethingspecial6030]

steel head is a trout some people call them trout some people call them rainbows some call them steel head but that's what they call them when they are in a river steel head

[@stillrob420]

What river you fishing?

[@andrewresczenko1958]

Would it be bad to keep a few steelhead every once in a great while?

[@MrFishguy60]

Nice video.

[@waterwalker1001]

Love the vids. I was wondering if you could do a video on your basic set up for pinning. Thanks

[@ConsummateSportsman]

We can do that!

[@waterwalker1001]

The Consummate Sportsman Thanks I would greatly appreciate it!

[@metal666head5]

Nothing better than fishing and kids nowadays dont even know how.

[@somethingspecial6030]

I am 13yrs old I learned how to fish when I was 3 I am always fishing when I can it's my life

[@baseballDUDE32]

Keep warm gentlemen.

[@SnapBackCollector211]

Are there like lots of steelhead in that river i live in ny and seems there isnt that many i jig alot

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Depends on the water conditions and the overall health of the fishery.

[@BrianKurtzRealtor]

What rod/reel combo are you using?

[@ConsummateSportsman]

13' rainshadow, with an Islander centerpin.

[@RigoWilliam]

What reel is your buddy using?

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Islander and a Ross Flow.

[@BigWater59]

I don't even want to go out and start my car much less go fishing in this weather. You guys are great and have polar bear blood.

[@AULTimateOUTDOORS]

It is cold when out ice fishing standing on a frozen lake but in that boat in the winter looks even colder!!! LOL Looks like a lot of fun though!

[@ChristopherThuss_Fishing]

Is the baby bass a jig?

[@ConsummateSportsman]

Crankbait.

[@ChristopherThuss_Fishing]

The Consummate Sportsman now you're just messin with me haha

[@420vr]

Thanks for the latest edition of pin porn, love it bro! The sucky part is here in NY all of our lake ontario tribs are frozen and watching this makes me want to get out. Oh well maybe next month.....

[@Gonzo3780]

I was thinking the same thing when you said your buddy was on fire!!! He caught more fish this video than he did in all of last years video's I think, lol...JK...Lots of nice fish JB...Do you guys ever catch anything else besides nice Rainbows this time of year like walleye or Pike?

[@ConsummateSportsman]

We catch so many walleye during the spring and summer that we give 'em a rest during the winter, Heith!

[@ChuckRichardsHandmadeKnives]

Nice! Elk creek,,,,walnut creek,,etc,, right here in my hood. Big steelhead!!!!!

Not fair man. The Pacific Northwest needs to know the secret of the baby bass!

[@FrankAbyss]

[@brianamado4366]
