I can understand that! Catching one was cool because I had never caught one before but after that it was just annoying. lol we thought about going over to east harbor while we were up there this trip but didn’t.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

I can assure you that the fish that get put back are doing well and are released healthy. Most of the time what isn’t shown in the videos are if I know fish are going to be out of the water I put them in the live well to get scales/measuring boards out or camera ready. I take good care of the fish I catch.

I’ve been considering buying another camera or 2 for different angles. The main reason is so you can see cast/cast angle the retrieve and everything.

Thanks for watching! That would be a fun pattern! Can’t beat topwater blowups!

It’s super tough and I’ve always caught fish but struggled to find anything with any size at all so this day was definitely one I was looking forward to.

@740_bass_fishing I know what you mean. I fished that small Ross Lake out of chillicothe for years due it's close to home. Used banks, canoes ,and kayaks. Caught 1 good bass, 4lb 12oz 20". Texas rigged powerbait purple worm

Those small lakes seem to get hammered with pressure. Burr oak has 2-3 tournaments a week and it’s just a tiny little lake. I think that partly contributes to how tough it is. Can’t go wrong with Texas rigged worm!

Definitely not my PB largemouth by any means but the biggest fish I had ever caught on this lake before this day was literally like 2 pounds so it was a serious upgrade and just an awesome day on the water.

Hybrid stripers are fun to catch because of how strong they are and how hard they fight! Congrats on your new PB!

@@740_bass_fishing Thanks!

I believe it was a dirty jigs Scott Canterbury compact flipping jig in Canterbury craw and I had a green pumpkin big bite baits yomama on it.

Absolutely! It is so much fun! And it has always been a really tough lake for me. Those fish take a beating with all the tournaments and stuff going on there. I’m just glad I was able to have a good day there!

Thank you sir! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Yeah plus there was a deep brush pile that I found in that same spot roughly 3 casts later the hard way 😂 thank you!

After fishing with it for a few months I will say that I can absolutely LAUNCH a 1/8 oz. Underspin with a 2.8 inch paddle tail. Definitely finesse if not BFS in my honest opinion. I’ve been really satisfied with it

Absolutely! As someone who doesn’t have livescope or anything like that I love the challenge of going out and finding fish and then that chess game of trying to make them bite. I enjoy that challenge. Sure there may be days where it’s slow and tough to get bites but when you put a bag together it’s so rewarding. That challenge is what keeps me going on the tough days. That challenge is what I enjoy which is why you don’t see me pond fishing either. I’m not saying that’s not challenging because I know it is but it’s different when we’re talking thousands of acres compared to tens of acres.

Oh good one.

I’ll be honest I just started tossing it around last year more than I ever had and I caught some BIGS on it! I have a video coming out in a few weeks where I catch a GOOD one on it!

That’s where this was. Couldn’t find them schooling. Just glad I could get my dad on a fish.

Thanks for subscribing! Vibrating jigs are 🔥🔥

Thank you! 🙌🏼 thank you for watching as well!

Absolutely! No wrong way to fish it and seems like the biggest fish bite when you are not straight retrieving it!

Thank you for your continued support and for always engaging in the content! 🙌🏼

I’ve heard a lot of people doing well at salt fork this year! Maybe I’ll have to get up that way at some point on a weekend when I’m over at Seneca.

@@740_bass_fishing I’m a bit spoiled when it comes to Salt Fork, about a 10 minute drive or less and I’m fishing. Have caught some big bass over the years (20” plus) there as well as other species.

Yeah that would be nice. I have one lake within 30 minutes of my house and it might be one of the worst in Ohio in my opinion (Dillon Lake). I’ve heard salt fork has a lot of good ones. I haven’t fished there much.

@@740_bass_fishing I have never fished Dillon.

@@740_bass_fishing Never know what you are going to catch at Salt Fork; largemouth, smallmouth, white bass, crappie, flathead and channel cats, walleye, saugeye and or a big muskie trying to destroy your bass tackle. 😬

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

😂😂 tempting!

It definitely wasn’t a bad sized one!

Thank you! 🙌🏼 I don’t know many people who fish chatterbaits in general let alone the mini max. But you are correct! They are hard to find in stores. Most places don’t even sell them it seems like locally.

It’s a fork type tail just like a fluke. It’s a VERY small fork so it fishes very similar to a straight tail on a chatterbait.

I tossed around A LOT earlier in the year when I was struggling to put fish in the boat and it did exactly that for me!

Thanks! This lake is in SE Ohio.

@@740_bass_fishing Figured it was a long trip for you to go to Seneca Lake in NY!

Yeah that would definitely be quite the haul! This lake is about 45 minutes from my house

Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! And with the little bit I’ve fished with them they are solid!

This rod is 7’ medium and I was using 6-8 pound line on a dropshot. I’ve really been scaling down my presentation this year because the bites been tough. I use heavy line a lot because I hate breaking off and leaving a hook in a fish but I can’t speak for everyone.

Light line. Wasn’t worth risking breaking off and leaving a hook in a fish. That’s not how I handle business on the water.

Thank you!

Same here! They are both great lures that always have a place in my boat!

I have a Mach patroller but that’s the only hard bait I have. I like it but haven’t caught a fish on it. I will tell you I used the Mach skooler on the back of the mini max chatterbait over the weekend and it might be my absolute favorite mini max trailer. The only complaint that I noticed is the plastic is a bit soft. Especially in the tail section with all the ribs and stuff it has. I lost a couple of tails catching fish over the weekend but the action was incredible on the back of that downsized chatterbait. It was the perfect size for it in my opinion too. I was really excited for the skooler because of the design of it and how versatile it is.

I like the curly tail worm for sure. Size is awesome in my opinion. I feel like I struggle to get bites on a 10” worm but wish I fished something slightly bigger than a 7”. These are that perfect in between size. I’ve already used the skooler (fluke style bait) on the zman mini max chatterbait over the weekend and it’s probably my absolute favorite trailer for that. The action was unmatched on that smaller chatterbait. It was the perfect fit!

@@740_bass_fishing Wade Garrett won the KBF championship last fall with the Mini Max Spot Removal. Flipping docks

I’ve haven’t tossed around the mini max a ton just because I’ve always had good success on the regular size but I’ve really struggled this year so far so I decided to downsize and I caught some nice fish on it. Multi species too. That video will be out in about a month or so. It was a pretty good day for the few hours I fished!

I was targeting bass with a berkley maxscent flat worm on a dropshot and I can’t tell you how many bluegill I caught on it. It’s crazy but I think that maxscent stuff is just that effective!

Absolutely!

Thanks for watching! You don’t see many videos on the internet talking about accessories so I thought it would be worth talking about.

It was a decent one for sure!

Absolutely! Thanks for watching! I’m a teacher by trade so I love to share information and help out anyway that I can!

I’m from Zanesville but my in laws are from Belmont county. We fish Seneca a lot because they have a place out there.

Pretty good selection there for sure! I have not tried a mega bass spinnerbait but I’ve heard good things about them. Mega bass just has good quality stuff for sure. I like bluerock spinnerbaits. Their buzzbait and triple threat jig are awesome too.

Thank you!

For sure! It’s probably one of my bigger drop shot fish!

Thanks 😂
