The Bass Fishing is Tough in 2021 - Fishing Mail Unboxing Giveaway (closed)

The bass fishing is tough today so we are doing a Fishing mail unboxing and giveaway! I started out the day fishing for bass and actually got a bite. However I failed to land the fish. It was the only bite I had all morning. So I went back to the studio to open the mail. Subscribers sent all sorts of fishing stuff in to the show today including lures for bass, letters of encouragement, and drawings. These generous people also included lures for a giveaway. The bass fishing can't be great every day, but opening the mail can turn a dull day into a great day!

I love the drawings the little kids send you. You know you’re doing something right when little kids send you their artwork in the mail.

[@RealisticFishing]

I agree

[@InTheWoodsToday]

Keep It Realistic! Just met a fellow angler today and right as i gave him plastics to use i had a catfish hit my bait! He helped net the fish and we had a great laugh! Glad to see you paying it forward so often, im sure you have great karma for cleaning up after so many slobs!

[@RealisticFishing]

Now you have a new fishing memory 👍

[@InTheWoodsToday]

Here is to many more my friend 🍺🤙 KIR

[@nashguy207]

So many fishing lures from some great viewers! You are the best Alex!

[@jamespiper9162]

Its great when the kids send in pictures

[@RealisticFishing]

I agree. Parental discretion advised 😎

[@KennyVengeance]

early morning has been the only real success for me. they seem to like 4 inch paddletail swimbaits. I guess I’m mimicking the shad spawn people are talking about? anyways keep at it and always KIR 😄🎣

[@RealisticFishing]

If you have shad spawning, a swimbait is a good choice 👍

[@johnhumphries6116]

Enjoyed the video. Always look forward to your giveaway's

[@mr_b22]

Realistic Fishing has hands down the best fans. Hope the bass bite explodes for you soon.

[@MrKingRaffy]

Always a good day when realistic fishing does a giveaway.

[@RealisticFishing]

good luck!

[@TheJuggaloFishingPosse]

Incredible mail homie!!! Best following on the tube. Man those sunfish look so cool. I've got a few myself but never had anything aggressive enough to hit them yet. Congrats on the winner!!! KIR!!!

[@RealisticFishing]

There is a fish out there somewhere that will grab that sunfish. 👍

[@HippyNerd95]

Man inspiring more and more people. Keep up the good work of stopping the BS and keeping it realistic

Even when the fishing is slow, your videos are always entertaining!

[@RealisticFishing]

Thanks Jason. I like interacting with fans

[@jacobtienor7836]

Yet to catch a fish bank fishing this year hopefully watching this video increases my chance of catching something.

[@RealisticFishing]

It does!

[@jeffmueller3909]

Thanks for showing Dustin's drawing, he was very happy to be involved in your awesome community

[@nextgenclassiccarsofIL]

you really know you're appreciated when you have mail openings as often as you do! you really affect people in such a positive way.

[@FishingWithChris_Tv]

Your luck with fishing lately is about as good as mine. I feel the pain lol

[@RealisticFishing]

Yeah, kinda sucks

[@alnegron9309]

Love the shirts you wear in the studio. I started to switch around to pan fishing when the bass are not biting and I got to tell you makes things a lot more entertaining than going without a fish. Keep it realistic!!

[@jonmclain3054]

I got my package thinks for keeping us entertained

[@RealisticFishing]

Awesome!

[@terristroh3965]

This is hands down the best fishing channel on KZbin

[@RealisticFishing]

Thanks Terri

[@jk_wrangler13]

Its nice to know dads getting their kids into fishing. Your channel seams to reach a lot of people young and old.

[@urielsevenfold]

I love seeing the vintage stuff people send you.

[@tubertdupular5780]

I have enjoyed this fishing channel for the past few years! Always keeps me heading back out on the water!

[@Justin-yh9pm]

It’s great to hear about parents taking their kids fishing, then kids draw pictures of their adventures & send them to you! Thanks for keeping it realistic 🤗

[@AndyFreemanNashvilleRealtor]

Your show helped me rediscover the desire to return to fishing after my tackle got stolen over 10 years ago. I've watched most all of your videos from the beginning and learned a ton a "new" techniques and learning more every time I go out. Still building my tackle collection back up but it gets expensive in season. Keep up the videos. Thanks!

[@FishBerry90]

Awesome seeing some of those vintage items. I wouldn't even use them, just collect 👍🎣

[@busteroaks402]

Still unable to get out and fish, but watching Realistic Fishing is the next best thing! Thanks again, Alex, for all that you do. KIR!

[@porkchopgrisel4171]

these are some of my favorite shows with old vintage stuff ... funny thing is ... i had to cut a lot of grass when i was a kid to get this stuff brand new ...

[@lannyseals2084]

It's awesome to hear from the realistic family and how much you have inspired and entertained them! Love watching the mail and giveaway videos, you are a great dude and will always be a fan of the channel!! Keep it realistic brother!!

[@tomfisher2103]

Looks like you hit the motherlode with all the gear, amazing to see how your office has grown from how it looked in the opening credits.

[@joebuck66]

Congratulations Ards. Seems like the bass are just hit and miss right now. One day they are on fire next day you can’t buy a bite. Great video Alex.

[@tonymcbroom5252]

That was "Lit" Bro! Dope mail and awesome "B-Roll"... Grow more fond of the channel every episode and it really lifts my spirits to see good things happen to good people. Realistic you should keep it! Cannot wait for the next one, thanks for the great content Alex.

[@airmobiledivision7759]

I’ve been humbled out on the water of late. Hopefully, change is around the corner. Thanks for keeping us entertained, and reminding us that regular guys can have real success out there, boss! Keep it up!

[@fishlovme]

I'm not a fan of hooks on my hat either. Never fully understood that fashion.

[@knightfishing]

It really makes no sense if they don't fish 🤦‍♂️ I was at a party a couple years ago, guy had one on his hat so I thought I could talk to him about fishing since my wife was off talking with the girls. Nope. Dude didn't even own a pole, just liked it for some reason

[@NathanB417]

Probably Larry the cable guys fault, but he's a good guy so I'll forgive it.

[@bobzilla6618]

Why would he even want it on his hat? I bet if you were a woman, he would have been all about "He!! yeah, I fish."

[@OntheRealFishing]

Such an amazing batch of fishing goodies! Thank you for being you Sir.

[@TheSarahbear9]

Thank you Alex, Michael, Ben and Ryan. Keeping it realistic. Awesome fans.

[@mesk412]

Man you are not wrong. Life gets very turbulent, stressful, challenging, and so on. Each phase of life comes with it's own challenges. Sometimes all you can do is get out and go fishing. Focus on the simple task at hand. It's a great relief from the stresses of life. Amen brother.

[@fishingwithjesus2274]

Thank you for adding me in your video! You are the only KZbinr I see do that. Great giveaway and mail call!

[@duanetaylor1526]

Looks like some cool stuff you've received from other followers. Pay it forward is awesome. I really enjoy all the videos. I like that you are always real...... with idiots who leave trash.... when you are under the weather but still want to get out and fish. Thanks for sharing what you love to do. I know your videos gets me out fishing when I would otherwise sit around and do nothing. Keep it Realistic!!!

[@miguelbanuelos5151]

It’s great that you inspire young anglers!! That’s paying it forward in a HUGE way. And it’s Realistic!! 👍🏼 🎣

[@arendrakuswanto1944]

To be honest this is my favorite fishing channel out there

[@davidweaver4279]

A bad ay fishing beats any day at work. I love when people send in older rigs. Takes me back to when I was a kid and just learning to fish. Keep up the good work.

[@rykdean2752]

Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for another chance at a giveaway. Keep it realistic.

[@jamessheets6604]

Love how you always keep it realistic! May your lines be tight in the near future!

[@Dravenos]

What an amazing community you have built! If I had the opportunity to fish with you all I would!

[@jennymcclendon1388]

Your channel is my favorite. You have me hooked on gulp minnows. Thank you for keeping it realistic.

[@annobrzut8697]

Love the way you keep it simple and basic. I love fishing and you are a good inspiration. Keep up the good work. You inspire a lot of people

[@solhja957]

I like that intro sequence just to see how far the studio has come!

[@mitchmitchums]

Thanks for opening the mail! I’m from Arkansas though not Arizona but I hope they will catch you some big fish! Keep making great videos!!

[@RealisticFishing]

Oops! I thought I read AZ. Thanks again!

[@hookedonbassncats]

Love the paying it forward. Appreciate realistic fishing and all my fellow anglers out there.

[@reeternetr1037]

the mail openings are always weirdly relaxing if that makes sense at all 😂

[@haroldfields5189]

Awesome drawings from young fishermen. Good to see more young people enjoying fishing.

[@BassBoyz408]

I love your videos Alex!!!!!! me and my friend started making texas rig craw baits and we were wondering if you would like to try them?! Thanks for the VIDS!!!!

[@RealisticFishing]

I cant promise I will try them because I get so many. But if you still want to send a couple, the po box is in the video description.

[@BassBoyz408]

@@RealisticFishing Okay thank you so much for the content!

[@cindywhitehead8584]

So great to see just how many fans you have. Keep up the great work! Congrats to the winner of the drawing. Maybe next time it will be me. Lol.

[@ronniemeadows9101]

Glad your day was turned around for the better. Thanks for another great video. I could not get out today to fish because of stormy weather. I am kicked back watching your videos.

[@victorkaren2393]

Love your channel. I have learned quite a few tricks from your videos over the past couple of years. Keep it realistic!!!!

[@mrkramer1979]

Love the merch on your website!

[@KevinSmith-tu2et]

I really enjoy seeing all the tackle that is sent in to you. The vintage tackle brings back a lot of memories. Keep it Realistic!

Good video Alex, nice lures it really nice that you share. I enjoy your videos

[@t-roy5842]

Love the channel. I always keep it realistic

[@AggroKragg]

Hey Alex! Glad you got a kick out of the vintage stuff. Those are definitely saltwater hooks. Old bluefish rigs. We have a nice mix of freshwater and saltwater fishing here in CT.

[@jimhall2255]

Love your videos. How you take the time to show us what you use and how you rig them. Thank you for what you contribute to the fishing community.

[@andrewwade7569]

Love seeing old forgotten lures and tackle.

[@NStone90]

Holy cow the give aways keep rolling in. Always love to see you spreading the love.

[@jaymacho06]

Another solid video! I love the fact that you don't catch fish in every video, which makes me feel like i'm not the only one!

[@nathanbuckner7410]

Pretty awesome drawings. Nothing much better than getting the young into fishing!!

[@sweetboysoutdoors]

Another great video. 👍 Been on an off for bites here too. Hopefully we’ll all have tight lines soon! We really appreciate what you do man. Thank you

[@douglascobb]

Congratulations, Ard! And Alex, thanks to you for yet another great giveaway of lures/baits! Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

[@lisatwitchell403]

I like the Gulp Minnows but don't do like those envelope packs. It's hard to reseal them and it's hard to keep the minnows soft.

[@RealisticFishing]

Yeah. I end up mixing them in other jars

[@penguin12902]

And then your whole bag stinks like Gulp. 😆

[@bigtgamez4967]

I enjoy seeing some of the old stuff people send in.

[@jpboy1399]

Thanks for always taking care of your subscribers. I hope your fishing turns on soon. KIR!

[@shannonboatright4894]

I really enjoy your videos I see I’m not the only one that has bad days fishing!! Thanks for keeping it real!!

[@conniepgh]

Fishing AND mail. Great combo, even if you didn't catch anything. Thanks for the video.

[@franklyfishing1352]

Had the same thing happen this morning with a wacky rig. Bass jumped and spit it. Still good feeling a tight line.

Great show as always. It’s not very often (never for me) that someone geographically close me have been mentioned in shows. This episode had 2! One close to my home and the other being close to my in-laws home. Good luck!
