Topwater Bass Fishing Blowups Series 11 - Sixty Big Bass Strikes

[@TCairgunning]

I'll never get tired of that noise, it's like music to my ears.

[@johnsamsky6253]

By far the best bass fishing action videos on youtube. Thanks for the quick delivery of the baits I ordered from you.

[@BamaBass]

Thanks and we appreciate the order John.

That was all so awesome, I didn't want it to end. I live in East central Florida, and one of my all-time favorite lakes down here is Blue Cypress Lake. EXCELLENT top water fishing for trophy bass. I had been fishing there a lot, when I took a friend. On the way out, I told him several times NOT to instantly set the hook during top water strikes, but to count to 2. He didn't realize I was watching him, as he was slowly popping a large surface popper. All of a sudden, a HUGE bass struck his lure, and I'm not kidding, it was an extremely violent strike, looking & sounding like a small bomb going off. It actually scared the hell out of both of us. Of course, out of reflex, he set the hook instantly and lost that fish. I began laughing so hard, as he spun around, eyes as big as saucers, and said "Did you see THAT!!!"...........He never could get that fish to hit again, not even with a back up lure. To this day, that was the biggest & most violent top water strike I've ever witnessed. Aside from the explosion, that bass was so big, it displaced enough water to create a boil that was the size of a king sized mattress. I mean we were both shaking after it happened, and only about 30 feet from the boat. Back about 2002, the FWC went to Blue Cypress to do a fish count by shocking them up. Blue Cypress is a very difficult lake for shocking up fish, due to all the wood & heavy vegetation in the water, that soaks up most of the electricity. They still managed to shock up 400 bass over 3 days, ranging from 5 to 8 pounds, with some even larger. The biggest bass weighed 14 lbs. The lake record is 18 lbs. I've caught countless bass there, including several from 8 to 10 lbs. And I once lost a fish there, that dwarfed even the three 12 pounders I've caught at the neighboring lake called the Stick Marsh/Farm 13. I was using a large buzzbait, and was able to turn that fish twice, and got a good look at her as she swam right past my boat before spitting the hook. AAARGHH!!! I know that fish had to go at least 15 pounds anyway. I love your videos. Keep em coming!

[@earlgarcia6106]

Evidently I’m at that stage in my life where I’d much rather watch this than pornhub...

Hey BamaBass. Love your videos. Great action and just simple down to earth strategies. No gimmicks or sales pitch like so many of the pros try to throw at you in their videos. I have a new skill and appreciation for bassing with frogs.

[@arthuranenberg9989]

A few days ago I felt I needed some inspiration... so watched this video. I was so pumped to throw topwater that I went out fishing later that day. First cast on a livetarget rat a giant inhaled my frog like something out of one of your videos. I landed it and it ended up being my personal best at 5.85 pounds! So I guess I partially owe it to you for helping me catching it. Thanks Bama Bass! P.S. by the way this is probably my favorite video on KZbin!

[@BamaBass]

+Arthur Anenberg Congrats! Love hearing these stories Arthur.

[@MarkPolsky]

+Bryan Zachery Thanks Bryan

[@sawyerssnakes]

What is that Leeward that you are using over the weeds?

[@thurstonabcde2164]

what lake are you on i think i might try to head to albama to beat my pb best

[@BornN2Grave1]

A note to new top water anglers, pay attention to when he sets the hook. The slight delay is intentional for 2 reasons, 1st is to reel in the small amount of slack in line if any and the 2nd is to ensure the fish closed its mouth and has a good hold of lure for hook set. Don't set the hook the instant you hear or see the blowup or you can pull it out of its mouth. Also if he misses the lure you still have a chance to work the lure because you didn't try to set the hook too early.

[@ShmeeOakee]

what were you using in the heavy mats? it looked weedless but it had the body of a frog. Was it just a rage toad or something?

[@ryanmcdonald9807]

+Logan Taricani it was probably a weightless Ribbit frog. Those are great for Texas Rig or weightless topwater.

[@sebastiang1357]

Wich rod most better for the topwater baits?

[@davesanders4170]

awesome video love watching it just wish i could get some blow ups like that keep up the good work an thanks

[@BamaBass]

[@owenmoon927]

I would like to know what your personal beat best bass was, mine is 6.28 and most of the bass that you are catching look a lot bigger than that

[@BamaBass]

+Owen Moon 13' 1 oz.

[@owenmoon927]

Wow man that's a monster bass, I wish I could catch catch a bass like that, those 13 pounders aren't very common in Florida

[@evanlayne23]

+BamaBass what did you catch your best on?

[@AnAverageOutdoorsman]

Hey I know I'm super late but you don't understand how lucky you are to live there. I know kids that are 12-14 that catch 13lbers quite often on public lakes

[@averagegalaxygamer4430]

[@BamaBass]

I usually fish them until December. I am uploading a video this weekend on frog fishing tips that will go in-depth on seasonal patterns and techniques.

[@evanlayne23]

+BamaBass good deal. thanks a lot! I missed a massive largemouth on a king daddy this week. he sucked it down and I was in such shock that I didn't set the hook in time. rookie mistake!

[@nah_cuz_fishin_8891]

I really enjoy the whip of hooksets who else does

[@3006sprg]

I still haven't hooked up on a bass while hung up on a tree while top water fishing. I'm jealous.

[@BamaBass]

+3006sprg Keep trying it. I always use that technique when the bass are right on the banks because its one of the best ways to get a lure in there without spooking them.

[@3006sprg]

Will always keep trying. But still jealous.

[@fishingasart9540]
