Shore Fishing for Panfish

I absolutely love catching large panfish such as the bluegill sunfish that come close to shore in the spring to spawn. While I had some success the last several days here, today was not one of those days. I still managed five fish within a little over an hour, but it just wasn't what I was hoping for. Oh well, you can't win them all.

use a rope and large treble hook 🪝, toss out and pull open casting lanes ...clear some weed lanes with a rake tossed on a rope leash.

@@louisdaniels873 I've never thought of that before, but sounds like a good idea.

[@aarondavies8486]

Here in England you can buy a rake that you can cast out on a rod ​@TheFishingNomad

[@TheFishingNomad]

@aarondavies8486 That's interesting. I've never seen that before.

[@aarondavies8486]

@@TheFishingNomad here in England as we only fish from the bank we have all sorts like a fish finder you can cast out and it maps the lake and shows you where fish are have you ever tried aliexpress for fishing tackle

Your editing and explication of what you are doing are my favorite of all the fishing channels.

Man, you've gotta love how those big Mayans pull drag! But I hate how they then bury themselves in the weeds/algae! 🙂

[@TheFishingNomad]

@@donalddaniels2675 They're a fun fight in open water, but not so much in weedy areas.

All you need now is bank sticks and bite alarms

[@TheFishingNomad]

@@aarondavies8486 I'm confused. What's a bank stick and why would I need both of those?

[@LLDWITHJ]

Spectacular spot. Enjoyed the video. Some nice slabs. New sub from my channel to yours

[@TheFishingNomad]

@@LLDWITHJ Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.

PS: what brand of lip gripper are you using there? I'm in the market for something that will fit in the cichlids mouths.

[@TheFishingNomad]

@@donalddaniels2675 Just the generic Bass Pro Shops ones. I was in the store and they had them next to the registers for less than $10.
