    For my setup ...I use 4lb mono...a old (early 80's) zebco 33 and a bsp classic 200 casting rod (pistol grip which reminds of the rod's I had when i was kid in the 80's.) Oh...and a bobber and worm (real or artificial - think leland panfish lures.) That to me = fun! :D

    None of them were actually Redbreast Sunfish. There are so many different species of Sunfish that identifying them can be confusing. Redbreast Sunfish in particular have long black ocular lobes (longer in fact than Longear Sunfish). I have caught a few in my local creeks, but most of the time they are Redear, and Buegill. My first sunfish I misidentified as a Pumkinseed. Best thing to do is take a good picture of them and compare their ocular lobes/fins with pictures and descriptions of the various different types. Redbreast in particular are supposed to be very tasty though.

    Hey. There’s a European company called Salmo and they make really good Crankbaits. The crankbaits are made for trolling but I found that they are exceptionally good for fishing on the bank too. Buy a couple and see how well they work for you. (P.S. Get the 1/16 or 1/8 oz because that will be the best depth for creeks and rivers)

  • @nfbf2197

    So cool man some nice roosters you caught it’s interesting they the redbreasts up there prefer slower moving water than in Florida the like the faster water with current breaks those panfish assassins work out great especially because there from my local region of Florida. If you want to catch roosters try out a small crankbait or I crappie grub

  • @CumberlandOutdoorsman
    @CumberlandOutdoorsman 5 років тому +2

    Here in Western Middle Tennessee we don't get Red-Breast sunfish, or at least I have never caught one here. One kind of unusual sunfish we have in certain creeks is the Red-Spotted sunfish. It looks somewhat similar to a Red-Breast, but does not have the long gill flaps. It looks more like a Bluegill with red crested scales, especially near the lower part of their bodies. I should do a video on the different species of sunfish in my area. I hope to get out this coming weekend, but it has been miserably hot here in the mid south.In fact it is hotter now than it was in July and August of this past year.
