I hope so too! Funny you ask, he’s actually coming to fish with me this weekend. He still fishes a ton but just a lot of work to steady pump out videos. He’s planning to do more again this spring I think!

Nice that’s awesome! Yeah this time of year they’ll get grouped up really well in certain ditches. Usually once you find them, they’ll hang around that same area until they start to move up for prespawn.

Good to know. May go that route if Yamaha doesn’t warranty it. Dealer seems fairly confident they’ll warranty it though, so hopefully it’ll end up being no big deal!

Thanks that means a lot!! Glad you’re enjoying and learning as well. Keep chasing them!!

Hopefully you didnt bend your prop shaft. Happened to me last year when i bent a prop and had to idle back. ended up replacing the whole lower unit.

Luckily prop shaft is all good! Hoping Yamaha will warranty the prop and then should be good to go. Have a new prop just waiting to see if I have to pay for it or not 😅

😂😂 right?!

For sure! I learned my lesson

Our club tournaments always go out of Cherokee Boat ramp!

I hear ya! It’s my confidence crankbait too! Good luck to you too, hope you get that motor quick! KEEP CHASING THEM!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks man! Looking forward to lots of bass fishing adventures to share with y’all!

Thanks!!

Thanks! Working on making that happen!

Yep one of my favorite creeks!

@ It’s awesome, we have a lake house up there and I get to fish it all the time, it’s really good in the spring, this time of year I just hang out in the Savannah River and fish big chunk rocks with that flatlock, been working great!!

That’s awesome! Definitely a good spot for a lake house! Yeah man that Flatlock is $$$

@ I used to throw the old sled, but that curve in the flatlock is a game changer for me, makes my speed craw sit more flush with the hook, and it never gets hung in chunk rock, it’s amazing!!

Couldn’t agree more! Best sliding style jig, bar none.

Yep sure is! Mainly to help prevent overheating. Much more than a light rain and it’s not very effective

Nothing at all. Just a Yamaha prop doing Yamaha prop things unfortunately

😂 couldn’t beat you in the club this year so this is my consolation prize

Thanks man!

Heck yeah! You definitely should, it’s always great to have the footage to remember the day!

Thanks!!

I haven’t spent much time on Murray in January. I will be going there some this month. From what I’ve heard it’s either a grass or ditch/brush bite depending on the day

@@ZachRamseyFishing I am going to fish the same tournament, we are with the North Augusta team, I’ve been up there several times recently, it’s all grass for me, a sled speed craw through the grass, and we have been able to find solid bags, but can’t find any big kicker bites, 16lbs is all we have been able to find, but if we stumble upon a few 3s and a kicker, should put me on the leaderboard.

@@GReese722 that’s about right

I’ll be out on Murray some this coming week so maybe I’ll see y’all out there!

@@ZachRamseyFishing we will see

Yeah gonna be bumpy one it looks like. Be safe and go chase em!

@ thanks, I don’t think it will be that bad but we will see, keep up the great content!!

Will do man!!

Thanks! Yeah day 1 was a little sporty haha definitely had to be driving the boat carefully. Glad you are enjoying and learning, means a lot!

Thanks man! It’s been fishing good lately! February should be a great time to hit it!

😂😂😂 I appreciate the advice

@@ZachRamseyFishing he’s wrong .. only rookies can’t even find them on practice day lol

😂 shoot if that’s the definition of a rookie then I definitely still fish like a rookie sometimes! 😅

😂😂

Nice! Yeah the Baker area is definitely a good area. The winter rains will blow out a lot of areas for the next couple months. I’m hoping the deep bite down lake will starting firing on all cylinders soon!

@ I went down lake today, stayed in the Branch and Modoc, it was a struggle, only caught 7 or 8 and no size, few weeks ago I could roll up to some of the stuff I got in there and catch 20-40 fish, and catch 10-14lbs, all those fish disappeared, once they all get out deep it will get easy again I hope

@ I hear ya. I’m hoping so too! I’m gonna try and spend some time out on Lanier and Murray this winter to change it up from the hill some.

@ ya I agree, hill is just boring for me, even when we do good it’s only 15-17lbs on a great day, all scoping and deep brush, just on Murray I can rip chatter bait over grass and catch 20-25lbs if you find the right stretch, it’s a fantastic lake, you should definitely fish it this winter because it will have healthy grass this year, last year there wasn’t that much, but this year it’s loaded.

Oh snap, say no more. I’m a grass fisherman at heart so I’ll definitely be getting over there!

I don’t, I use 17lb fluorocarbon. Couple reasons for this. The first is I like the slight stretch that it has versus braid. That split second helps make sure the fish has the bait in my opinion. The other reason is fluorocarbon is much less prone to wrapping around cover as it’s more rigid than braid. Prevents you from getting hung in laydowns, bushes, or docks as often.

I fish in Mistletoe some during herring spawn and summer time. There’s some good points and brush piles in there!

No doubt! Keep dunking the rod and keep the hand warmers close! 😅🥶

I bet! Still pretty darn cold up that way

😂 gets your sinuses cleared out 🥶😅

Thanks, I really appreciate it! Glad you’re enjoying the videos!

Thanks! Tanner is the man on the hill. Key baits were damiki rig, drop shot, and shakey head!

😂🥶😅

He just wants to keep swimming 🤣🤣🤣

Exactly, let little man do his thing 😂😂

😎😎

I haven’t been really far up the broad but I’ve heard the same. Meant to go up there this summer but never got around to it. Will have to make that happen in 2025!

@ sounds good, I’m thinking about getting a trip with Tanner, will he show me how to catch a 4lb fish or go catch a hundred spots down like Modoc and around down lake, I already can consistently catch the spotted bass like crazy year round, but struggle to find quality bass, biggest bag this year was only 13lbs and I can go fishing and catch 70 bass and out of that 70 I won’t catch a fish over 2.5lbs. I would like to get a trip with him, but idk if he’s going to just take me down lake to catch a boat load of spots, if so that’s a waste of $440, do you think he will show me how to catch a 4lb bass?

I hear ya man. I think he can definitely help with that. I would communicate with him when you book about what your goals for the trip are

Sure is! It’s one of my favorite scoping baits and one I feel like people forget about sometimes!

@ heck yeah I have one tied on for our tournament at Russel

Nice! Should catch em!!

Thanks man. Yeah I love Murray, will be fishing there more this winter and spring. It’s an awesome like with some giants. I love fishing grass, so it’s definitely more fun than the hill. I wish Clarks Hill had grass too. Maybe eventually they’ll invest some more resources into the lake

@ long time ago it had tons of grass, you could almost walk across that flat by the road in parksville it had so much hydrilla, but the jack fish were bad.

For sure. The first time I ever fished it was in 2015. One of the last good years of grass. Having grown up fishing Lanier, I had never seen so much grass in my life 😂 little did I know how much I would miss it 10 years later.

Thanks!!

Thanks! 😎

lol didn’t know there was such a thing

@ it used to be a huge trend back in like 2018-2019

Nice man! I haven’t been to Russell in a while, but I would say with this cold weather, stay down by the dam and start scanning for bait in ditches start in 15-20ft and work deeper till you find them. Once you have a depth start running ditches till you find some with bass. Drop shot, Keitech, damiki, shakeyhead, underspin. If that’s not your thing I’d say go polar opposite and find some shallow dirty water and hit it with a jig, crankbait, and spinner bait!

I appreciate it man I will definitely try it

For sure! Let me know how it goes!

@@ZachRamseyFishing I will

Awesome! It’ll be a great experience!

Absolutely!!

For sure!

😂

Thanks! It was a fun one!

@ I bet
