Thump’em Up Fishing sells thumpers, a device used to attract striped bass, hybrid striped bass, white bass, and other fish to your boat! Why go look for fish when you can bring the fish to you!
“Building the Ultimate Fish Thumper- the Thump’em Up Fishing story!”
Six years ago I took a guided fishing trip with Wes Cambell from Bend a Rod Guide Service on Lewisville TX and was able to experience thumping firsthand. Although I am somewhat skeptical, I could see with my own eyes how thumping brought fish to the boat! I also saw how challenging it was to continue thumping when fish are biting, especially for a guide! Determined to find a thumper, I researched available products on the market and discovered that they were quite expensive. Undaunted, I looked
on UA-cam and found Tim’s video on his Skunked Again Fishing channel and reached out to him. Tim helped me build my first thumper and also brought his thumper with him for a fishing trip on Lake Lewisville.
The thumper was a game changer for me. I went from catching fish 50% of the time to catching limits 50% of the time and realizing how amazing the thumper was, I decided to offer a lower cost option. Lower cost is not really the key feature of the thumper though! The Thump’em Up Fishing thumper uses a 1-pound steel hammer and a high hammer drop to increase vibrations. It uses a heavy-duty automotive grade motor and a variable speed controller that can go from 10 thumps per minute to you
better wear earplugs! It’s a 2-4 amp draw so can run off your trolling motor or cranking battery… and the new remotes are very reliable and work anywhere on your boat to turn the thumper on and off. Tim’s OG thumper and my thumper have been running for 5 and 6 years respectively and they flat out catch fish.
I started selling thumpers about 5 years ago and we have now sold over 1800 units across 20 states and have 30+ professional guides using thumpers to help their clients catch fish! We pride ourselves on
customer service. If there is a part issue, we fix it to get you back on the water as fast as we can. If you are looking for a thumper, check out www.thumpemupfishing.com for the ultimate thumper!

I couldn’t fish around all those no fishing people
This thumper is great! One of the best things I’ve bought. Eric is super helpful with questions you may have as well. I bug him with fishing questions all the time and he always responds. If you fish for striper or white bass, this thumper is a game changer! Get one!
Spider gear was popular when i started commercial fishing until the went to yearly quota. Used to run 2 50 hook spider gears with twisted 125 an and xtea burner gear. Im not sure if i started a new trend but i did my spider gear different then every1 else and they took alot longer to start twisting. Commercial fished for 20 years. Going on a 30 hour tuna on the 9th. Miss those days tho
Wow that’s a lot of fish at one time!
Always heard those AJ's won't to good table fare ?
I always give mine away to my friends but they love them!
Sorry but seriously? All that huff and puff and tagging out you had me hoping for an two-3 gaff 80 to 100 lb+ yellowfin tuna not a 20 lb-. Man bummer. Maybe next time.
The big girls come out in the winter time… unfortunately not that many tuna and fewer monsters in the summer!
Or you can let the very small baby tuna go and grow up.
Nope I prefer sushi to catch and release
Bait?
Herring
CHUM BUCKET
The pump is the game changer. It pulses the chum in their face!
What is the best time of year to fish yellow fin?On the new buccaneer
All year… bigger fish in winter normally but more fish in the summer
@@ThumpemupFishingchannel Thank you
I wonder if thumping works on a pontoon boat?
I would say yes… lots of people use them. Jeff runs 2 pontoons with thumpers… ua-cam.com/video/ABmPpO6Dp24/v-deo.htmlsi=EMxr2Ju1YNx1Pw3y
Are toothpaste poppin robbs good
Two piece popping rod good
All the popping rods I use are two piece…. They are butt joined and connect right above the fore grip on the handle.
What colors of the snapper slappers do you recommend? -> 7oz Snapper Slapper Saltwater Lure
I use red and white, blue and white and purple and black. The key is rigging them with squid and a sardine to catch the beasts!
How can I contact you about a thumper? Thanks
Hey James, check out my website, www.thumpemupfishing.com or email me at info@thumpemupfishing.com
Hi Eric, I'm looking to get the Berkley X9 #50 braid for my deep drop rod (because its the thinnest #50 braid I have been able to find .030mm) do you have a color recommendation - green vs. white? Pros Cons?
I don’t have a color preference other than indicator braid for jigging when using a conventional or spinning reel…. Maybe others can chime in. One thing to consider is that the white is a little easier to see at night.
Just found your channel. Wish I could do this one day. On these trips do you need your own gear ? This is a dream trip for me
They have gear in the boat for normal bottom fishing and chunking for tuna. Additionally Matt seems to have a few extra combos for popping. I am not sure if he has extra deep drop rods but those are special requests and the people that book those trips all have it. If you get on one they would typically share. If you are interested email me at info@thumpemupfishing.com I will do a trip every quarter based on what’s biting.
What is a good brand of braid For offshore fishing
I like Tuf-line indicator braid for jigging and depth control. I use 65lb test. For casting I like Seaguar threadlock in 50lb.
You have to much goings-on loud music low talking thumper . I rather hear you not the loud music other than that I like what your doing tho.
Thanks for the comments. I have tried to cut down on the background music in my later videos so hopefully that helps!
Does a carolina rig work good on the party boat
Yes it does, especially if you are fishing rigs and there are mangrove snapper around. I normally keep it higher in the water column.
Hi Eric, Jason from DFW here. My friends and I were wanting to ask: What’s something you would say or give advice to anyone that is just starting to fish? Whether if they want to do it casually or strive to be compete in it one day.
Hey Jason, fishing is not a one size fits all sport, there are as many ways to fish as there are fish! Beginner’s will have a dinner experience pursuing fish that are easier and more plentiful to catch (e.g. trout or sandbass vs largemouth). Keep it simple and fun first then expand out to more complicated species and techniques. Many fisher people are more than willing to help out new anglers so don’t be afraid to ask for help!
Is a five foot eight inch rod good for that
I use a short rod for jigging vs. a longer rod…. For casting I use a 7 1/2’ plus rod, for jigging normally 6’ or less. Chunking I normally just use a jigging rod. I recommend a rod stout enough to put the heat on a tuna, don’t go with a lite rod or you will have a prolonged fight and a higher potential to lose a big fish!
@@ThumpemupFishingchannel Thank you
Hey, I'm planning on doing that trip this October. Either these guys or Williams. What is that spinner setup that you have?
I would recommend a Spheros reel with a 7’ -8’ medium heavy rod. I have bluefin gear so what I use is overkill
What’s a splasher?
A trolling motor with a special propeller that simply splashes the water. It mimics fish feeding on the surface!
We do use it sometimes and it seems to help especially when you stop, the fish cluster under your boat. I will often keep a slab ready and drop it as soon as I get the fish in to try to pick up another one.
Would using the thumper during trolling help?
Yes we use it sometimes. When you stop the boat fish gather quickly so have a slab ready and drop it!
Looks like minnows
They are Zoom flukes 4-5”
Sunshine Bait Tank!
That’s a greyline. I have also used a Moeller but you have to add ice, salt and shad keeper in the summer!
You are correct. I bought mine years back at Kingston.
Aaw man, so many memories. I can't wait to do this again.
I just jumped on a 4/28-4/29 trip with Captain Matt here. www.smithandsonscharters.com/booking-the-blue-fin-galveston/
How did you make that rig I’m familiar with hi-lo rigs use in surf and catfishing. Is it similar?
Yes it’s just a 2 loop dropper rig or chicken rig. You can also Carolina rig them. Key is to use salmon egg hooks so the bait will float above the grass that’s in many of these lakes!
Does each fisherman catch each species or are certain spots on the boat harder to catch fish? Does anyone sleep or just go all out for 30hours? Im thinking of bringing my 15yr old son??? Recommended or Not??? Thanks for making the video
1. The captain and crew will tell you the target species and the best way to catch them. Normally it’s squid for red snapper, vermillion snapper and whatever else bites. It may be freelining for kingfish etc. I normally catch pinfish for grouper and drop that first then switch if that doesn’t work. Tuna fishing uses poppers, swimbaits, chunk or jigs. Ask the deckhands and they will tell you. Best time to sleep is when the boat is moving from spot to spot. I normally don’t get much sleep! Bring your son but make sure he has a patch or something to prevent sea sickness. That is the worst experience!
@@ThumpemupFishingchannel Thanks for the info
@@MatthewsFabrication you bet! LMK if you have any more questions!
@ThumpemupFishingchannel Do Crank baits work well for Tuna? I have a ton of those Is there a recommended pole length or line strength for Snapper vs Tuna? Is there a Rod limit? I have a few 4 piece poles that I took to Florida that I used off the piers. I was using 20-30lb braid & 20-30lb mono leader & I couldn't cast far. Other locals were using 10lb braid with a 20-30lb mono-leader & they were casting way out there.
@@MatthewsFabrication the most popular lure is the Halco Max 130 with upgraded hooks. I use 2/0 owner ST66 hooks although the new Halco hooks are much stronger. I use 50-65lb braid on all of my rods with 65 fluorocarbon for leader. My popping /casting rods are all 7’ or longer.
How do you like fishing on that vessel compared to NB?
I love it, it’s smaller so much fewer tangles and Matt is a great captain. The quarters for sleeping are smaller but other than that it’s great!
Do you guide out of towners? I live in AZ, 80 yr old, but want to take my grandsons on a good trip.
I have full time guides that use my thumper and are the best and can get you on fish! We will make sure you have a great trip!
Wonder if a person could go digital with thumping. Experiment using low range frequencies on a subwoofer with digital driver. I could vision the elimination of the noise factor, where you couldn't hear it at all.
I worked with Purdue university to try to replicate the vibrations digitally and we couldn’t even come close. I don’t think it would be as effective!
Thanks for posting. We are headed there tomorrow. Goona be cold and windy, of course. lol
Never fails unfortunately. My daughter has a birthday party so may go Sunday. How did you do?
Will forty pound mono mainland work for red snapper
I would go a little heavier, I prefer 65lb. You never know what you will get, could be a red, AJ, or grouper. You could also get tangled or rub the hull…. 40 lb should work but I like the extra few pounds. Some guys go even heavier…
Nice catch my friend. How much is a trip like that. 😊
Bluefin is $700-$725, I think the New Buccaneer is $450.
Ok thanks for the info my friend. Take care and have a blessed week my friend. 🙂👍
Do you have your thumper and splasher running to the same battery? If so, how long would they both last on a 100ah battery?
Anyone?
Sometimes yes, the thumper is 2-4ah, so depends on the splasher…
@@ThumpemupFishingchannel Thanks, I calculate the splasher to be 8-10 amps max. So... Maybe 7 hours give or take...
Nice. Thank you for sharing Eric
You bet! Thanks for watching!
What size hook do you all use
I like small 2/0-3/0 circle hooks…
You use an ugly stick tiger elite
Yes for my electric and trolling umbrella rigs on Texoma. Works well for me!
What speed are you going when you do what you call ‘slow trolling?’
3 mph
@@ThumpemupFishingchannel oh wow! 3 mph is ’fast trolling’ for me!
@@jwbrilliant gotcha, we troll much faster in salt water so I guess it’s all relative!
