I live in Florida and I fish three day a week and I have to say that you are absolutely spot on. Your video should be required watching for anyone who relocates to Florida and likes to fish for Bass.
I really appreciate that! I knew it was a learning curve when I fished my first tournament there but since then it’s easy!
Doing that in a month, coming from Texas. Good info, thanks for posting!
@@user-ym9wb2mk5e Good luck!
I live here too and fish orange lake and lochloosa almost weekly.
I live in Florida and you are spot on in terms of your recommendations for here in Florida which is completely different from the rest of the US!
Man, you’re giving away all our FL secrets!!! You totally nailed it! As a FL angler you did a great job!!!
Thanks I appreciate it!
As a Florida bass fishing guide, I must say, you have hit the nail on the head. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Best artificial bait tutorial, I’ve seen about Florida bass fishing. Great job.
Thanks!
kenneth im going to be in florida 1st of year of 24 going on a cruise and then spending couple days bass fishing looking for a guid for couple days
Buzz bait, Jackhammer Chatterbait in black and blue, junebug or grape senko style worms. I like Berkeley gulp in purple or watermelon. Just let them sit. Top water black Choppo or frog. These simple three are what I fish in the panhandle about 95% of the time. When it’s windy, 1/2 ounce white spinner bait with trailer hook. I catch a lot of 3 to 6 lb bass and get the occasional big bite.
God bless you man! I've been raised here in south florida for 20 years, bass fishing 15 years I'm 25 and your tips are so accurate 👌 its amazing to watch this!
Best florida tip video on UA-cam!!
Thank you!
I would have had to add the tiny torpedo in there that was my granddaddy's favorite but you pretty well nailed it fella
Okay, Nathan, I wanted to give you props. I did everything you spoke about and caught the most bass I ever have. I've never felt so confident. I wanted to say thank you.
This is awesome! Thank you!
As a florida native two things of note 1 bait you missed was a 10 inch culprit worm in any purplish color absolute must have and also those baitfish thing is only accurate down to southern palm beach county anything south of that there's cichlid, Oscar's, peacock etc so the bait color change
I did miss some stuff but I couldn’t fit it all into one video I tried to keep it general to get people started!
So spot on man . I’ve been fishing for 93 years and I’m 118 years old your tips are so spot on bro .
Thanks!
I'm 61, and I've never met any man over 75 who says "bro". Never seen "a 118 yr old man", and definitely any senior citizen who watches the youtube channels you're subbed to either.
@@howabouthetruth2157 you finally met one
@@donniehill3952 Bullsh*t
I'm in broward county, south of Palm Beach, I have never seen a golden shiner or a shad in any small lake or pond. They do definitely eat bluegill, but mostly small tilapia and cichlids. Maybe on the larger lake like Lake O, or Headwaters. But south of Palm beach nope! But love your content 👍🎣
Delay beach lake Ida Golden shad
Born and raised down here and I am a fishing guide and this is spot on for the most part. Well done
Thanks! I tried to fit as much as I could in a video couldn’t fit it all of course!
Your videos are still helping a guy out two years down the road! taking a trip with the boat in February! Thanks for the information!
Good luck!
Agree with most as florida native. Must includethe topwaterfrog. Lizard , 10.5 junebug zoom ole monster, big buzz bait .
Cold front in Florida. Time to get out the winter flip flops. Brrr. 😊
Have fished for bass all my life in Florida 54 years now. Great job, spot on..
Thank you!
From East Tennessee, but man now I want to go down to FL and fish.
Only video one needs to fish Florida. Nice job.
Thanks!
My best super fluke for down here is the Zoom "Blue Glimmer" (looks peral and blue
) and Bitters Native Shiner (blackgreengold)
Can't go wrong down here by fishing a 5 inch June bug Senko !
Absolutely!
As a Florida Bass fisherman he pretty much nailed it with this one
Thank you!
Tanic Tea! That's the perfect analogy. I been fishing Florida for about 15 years now. Never understood the Watermelon colors,, seemed to dark. Thanks. Now I get it. Maybe now that I trust this knowledge I'll do better. I also think Lizards are good, but ultra light and top water. I have seen a few lizards fall off a tree and immediately get snatched up.. Great video.
Good luck! Hope you catch them!
Nice presentation. I fished with a guide in December (Dora). We was catching fish on worms dragging the bottom. He then decided to go to another area for 'other' fish. NOTHING. Then he made a profound statement. "Never leave fish to find fish." My buddy landed an 8 pounder that day. Several in the 3-5 lb range were boated.
Definitely a true statement!
Moving there next week, Ive only fished the Midwest and this is going to be a huge helper. Great stuff bud
Good luck!
I live in north Florida and fish every week and kinda not in agreement with certain things. Baits spot on. Except square bill crank if u know how to fish it through the hydrilla But cold fronts is some of my best fishing for major bigs. But that’s Florida and everyone finds there own grooves. Deep deep in summer works wonders (15-25 is deep deep in Florida).
I couldn’t cover everything in one video tried to do the basics and gear it more towards tourists and visitors just to have basic success!
Shell beds
I like what your saying..Sounds legit.Days of cold weather will tell the fish too slow metabolism killing the bite.
That is true!
Florida Bass fishing. Throw a plastic worm in any ditch and catch a bass. About all you need!! Great video man, welcome to our state!
Thanks!
South Florida angler here and your right great video. The ONE KNOCKER SPOOK and PEARL WHITE FLUKE. 👍👍👍
Thanks! They are great baits!
Nailed it!!
As a born and raised Floridian your spot on sir!
Thank you!
Awesome video, much appreciated. Just recently moved to FL from PA and loving it so far. I will def benefit from your tips!!!
Good luck!
Great job explaining and helping with the often angered anglers who can’t catch fish when visiting…my only thing about your video….i almost forgot exactly what state you were talking about.
“Sarcasm”
Down in Alabama? Or no maybe it was down here Florida…
It’s a good thing no one played “buy your buddy a new lure everytime Florida is mentioned,” cause bass pro would’ve been wiped clean 😉😉☺️☺️
According to JT Kenny, a FWC biologist told him that 75% of a Florida bass diet is bluegill. Of the remaining 25, 15% was crawfish. Crawfish are very prolific in waters with vegetation. The remaining 10% is shinners, shad and frogs. At the same time remember we have large he populations of tilapia which bass are getting attuned to eating.
Yep! Not saying they don’t eat crawfish just that they aren’t the majority forage as they only are about 15 percent they spend more time eating other types of fish mostly!
same here, all my big fish come on trick worm/senko style plastics. they are super smart. You can get some giants on spinning in florid too. I caught my PB on spinning (10lb) while speck fishing and ive been bass casting all my life
Nice!
Pearl white zoom fluke 4” on a 3/0 EWG worm hook I live on Lake Dora and have caught multiple 8-10 pounders ON THE SAME TRIP! Fish it weightless
So I have to laugh. You know your stuff yo. I been fishing this pond down from my house in Fl and I know there are bass in there. I saw a dead baby when I first went there. I been fishing it for a long time and never got bass to bite. I used worms crawdads buzzbaits frogs. Texas rigged Carolina rigged. After watching this I tried my silver lure with the chatter weights in it. I found the one that looked closest to a silver shad. 5 casts caught biggest bass I caught yet since I started fishing again. I knew they were in there. You sir are a Florida bass fishing guru.
I also am born and raised in Florida and you did a really good job I was impressed
Thank you!
Good video. Lots of tips. We went down there and booked a guide out and the day we went out it was a cold front. Was very slow fishing that day.
It can be
I've had ALOT of success with Yamamoto Senko worm. I've recently discovered the MegaBass Sleeper Gill...wow!! 👌
Well i have lived in florida my whole life, living here is like bass fishing in florida its very confusing and unique.
awesome video, best ive seen yet.heaqding there next week for 3 weeks if your there lets go catch em. thanks mate.
Good luck!
I've lived in Central Florida(polk co.) my whole life an you are absolutely right about everything!!!! Great job!! 100%
Thank you!
Will I'm in PC. Looking for some good spots. Any suggestions? I don't have a boat
Great video Nathan ! And it got a lot of attention too over 200 comments ! I’ll be going down February 1st -April 1st for the first time ever so this video is just what I need to try and pack !! Thanks !
Good luck!
Awesome stuff. Thanks a million for the tips. Really nice;y done. 👍🏼💪🏼👍🏼💪🏼👍🏼💪🏼
Thanks!
Cichlid colored lures work very well too
Never tried them!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 try zoom super flukes in tilapia color, they get smoked!
This was a phenomenal video and answered so many questions considering I moved to south Florida from PA and it’s currently late July and it’s been so tough
Thank you good luck!
Try XPS lipless crank bait in the purple color. it WORKS
Great video!!!!
Thanks!
Great video. Needed this to update my tackle box
Thanks!
What an awesome video. Thank you so much for putting this together.
Thanks!
Solid info. I live just south of Brandon, FL and fish 3-4 days a week. Everything you said is spot on solid!
Thanks!
Great info. Bass in Florida are a completely different animal. Since moving here from Missouri I have had to teach myself to fish again.
It is definitely different!
I don't know if you've fished Lake Placid FL yet but you should absolutely try. I've caught monster bass on Lake Istokpoga when i stayed on the lake a handful of years ago. My biggest bass came from the lake. Biggest ate a 13 inch shiner.
I have heard good things! It’s on my list for when I visit again!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 I just found you on here but will follow you on Instagram as well. I can send you the spot I caught ALL my biggest bass of my life if ya want.
@@nathanhoveyaquatics Thanks I appreciate the support!
I live there lake childs or lake placid has some fire ledges and piles I went out there a couple years ago and the bite was insane we got a 39.3lb bag
@@fishingwithz7751 I would love to one day fish that Lake on a boat. The folks I stayed with that lived on a canal of the lake had a fish feeder on its dock so obviously that area was Primetime fishing. And it is easy to catch big fish with live bait so I would definitely love to attempt with lures
Great info, thanks
Just moved down here, can't wait to get on the water. Thanks for making the video haven't tested it out but seems like very solid info!
Good luck!
I am here visiting and I do every year in March. Thank you very much for your video👍 I noticed after a week that it is not anything like new England bass fishing 🤣
No it’s not!
Thanks, dude. I needed this
Thanks!
Beginner saltwater fisherman in the Tampa Bay Area. Only tried freshwater a couple of times and totally struck out, not so much as a single bite, but as you said it’s been the dead of summer so that might be a factor.
Good info, I’ll def use those tips and try again.
Thanks good luck!
Hey man, we’re The South Florida Bass Assassins. We fish 365 days a year, rain, wind, cold, whatever. We have a handful of good sponsors from American Baitworks to Lew’s. Our channel is new but we catch absolute HAWGS on the daily. If you ever want to collab and talk about fishing, bait selection, rod/reel selection, whatever just hit us up. We’re both Lifelong Floridian Native Anglers with over 60 years of combined experience. I dig your channel and think we may be able to help each other as Channels based on Bass fishing. Good luck out there 💪🏽
Awesome! Thanks for reaching out!
What more could you ask for? That's telling it like it is!!! Great informative video.
Thanks!
Well done.....WELL DONE.
Thanks!
Dang. I'm prolly never going to Florida. At least you got a comment from me. lol
Thanks! Can still learn something from it!
The absolute easiest way to catch bass is the Wacky worm. While it's not 'covering water' it is very successful at getting bass. I think VMC makes a Neko Weedless hook. It has a 50lb. fluorocarbon weed guards that work in hydrilla. Oh.. Side Scan does work in Florida. It will help find brush piles that hold good bass.
Stumbled on this video. Live here in Central Fla, good info. Makes a lot of sense. Good stuff
Thanks!
Heading to Palatka and fishing St. Johns River late Feb. Give me the juice man!!!!!! lol
Try this stuff it will help get you started!
Dude sounds like he just wrote a 12 page paper on this. Good stuff, solid info. Good vid
Thank you!
White is the best bass color. Also, a 1/8 oz gold rooster tail should ave a PERMANENT spot in your tackle box
I’ve heard Gambler EZ In large size is killer in between pads and weed lanes. The smaller one kills up north on weighted Swimbait hook.
It’s amazing!
Being born and raised in north Florida ( st John's and rodman's home water). You just about nailed it, especially if your not from Florida. There's still a secret or two you need to add to your bait arsenal but you're pretty close. I know 2 baits right off the top of my head that are musts you didn't mention. And never forget a big worm down here. 12-14" worms
I couldn’t mention everything and fit it all into a reasonable length UA-cam video! I tried to make it geared to the person just visiting for the first time as the fishing is so different
@@nathanquincefishing7122 I will say this, you did the best job of breaking down how to in Florida that I've seen on UA-cam so congratulations.
What are these 2 baits lol.
I have learned so much watching you. Keep up the great videos!
Appreciate it!
Thanks for those helpful tips!!!👊🏻 Will be putting them to good use in a few weeks!!!🐟🐟🐟🐟 Stay Safe & God Bless!!
Good luck!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 Thank you!! I'll let you know how I did when I get back.
Great advice and insight. I moved down to FL this summer (but had fished down here for many years prior) and everything you said is spot-on
Thanks! Good luck fishing!
All very good solid information.
Thanks!
THANKS for the info fam, really appreciated.
No problem thank you!
I live in Maryland, but I will try your advice here. Thanks Great Video!
No problem good luck!
1st video I watched, great job. 👍
Thanks!
There is good fishing in cold fronts here in Florida... I fished Florida my whole life. Born and raised here. The trick to catching big bass in Florida in the cold fronts it to slow down and fish deep pockets. Don't tell people they can't catch big fish down here in the winter or during cold fronts because that's just not true. The season best known for charter bass fishing is in the Florida winter time.
I never said it wasn’t possible just said it’s more difficult for a beginner!
Yes. Definitely for a seasoned fisherman. But knowledge is power to those big strikes as you already know. So I hope the info I put in helps those beginner bass fisherman with bigger bites for the Florida cold fronts or our winter months.
@@nathanquincefishing7122 wasn't trying to knock ya brother. I was just saying.
I always have a frog and a flipping jig or creature bait. My biggest caught on these baits
Great choices!
Excellent advice. Thanks!
No problem!
Hitting Lake Toho in November! Hopefully it's a good November! Great tips!
Good luck!
You Guys need to go to lake Champlain smallmouth fishing. I fish Each 3 times a year and Florida’s fish are bigger but fight nothing like a 4 or 5 pound smallmouth.
I’m from the northeast I fish smallmouth regularly!
I use a zoom swimming fluke, it’s basically a fluke body but with a paddle tail
That’s a good one!
All great points. Had to learn all this myself. I also have good luck on green pumpkin ribbon tail worms when it's tough. Texas rig them and drag them through the grass or edges of hydrilla.
Yep that’s a great bait!
Nice video man. I’m moving down there from Ohio soon and videos like this are what I need right now. I made sure to sub and look forward to watching more great stuff!!
Thanks I really appreciate it!
We’re going to the Harris chain next month for 4 weeks. I will put your ideas to work in packing and fishing after watching this a few more times. Thank you for the detailed information that will useful on my first time Florida bass fishing. I hope to PB. What about whopper ploppers or A rigs? Well done!
Whopper ploppers will work great this time of year and a rig can be hit or miss! Good luck!
A rigs are trash. just good for schoolers!!! the bigs are too smart.
Hula popper anytime of year, as long as your fishing early morning or late evening. 32yrs old and never let me down, other than that spot on bud.
Thanks!
Motor oil culprit worm or yellow sally
Very interesting and informative video. This was my 1st video of yours that I have watched. I watched it completely through 2 times as a check and recheck. Central Florida (Harris Chains and Kissimmee Chains, etc.) have such finicky fish at certain times and even the Pros find those areas to be odd for finding patterns. What you said in this video was Spot-on about where they hang out and what baits and colors they like to bite on. The exception s that were not mentioned was Bubble Gum Pink and Black/Purple or Blue/Purple stick baits, especially Trick Worms. Anyway, glad I found your channel! I could see myself subscribing at some later point, liked it that much. Thank you for a great video.
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Great info. We been visiting Florida bass hunting for many years. 10+ you are exactly right. It took us at least 4 years to figure Florida bass out as well. ( if fishing is remotely posto figure out? ) thanks
Thanks! They’re a different animal!
The biggest problem I see with folks coming down here to fish is they want to fish Okeechobee or Kissimmee with expectations of every flip setting the hook on a double digit.been fishing for Florida bass my whole life, been blessed to have landed 5 over 10lbs, not one of those fish were caught in one of the big lakes, small private, unmanaged retention ponds, that developers dug to make roads.its these places that hold the true giants, not over crowded, over fished over hyped water
Absolutely true!
Froggin till the day I die. Just landed a 9lber on a frog 2days ago.
Awesome!
So funny hearing spawn in December. Rhode Island they spawn April or may depends on weather
Yea we usually don’t start til May in pa!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 last year they caught me by surprise empty beds all over my usual spots wasn’t even may yet
Between January and December that's when the fish are hitting
June July August fish at night ..
I spent years chasing bass in Florida
I gave up on it
Never catch bass like that
I could have told you about Florida bass fishing. Who can't catch a bass in Florida? I wish someone could tell me how to consistently catch bass in clarkshill lake.
I'm a florida native 52 years I've been chasing giants and getting em. Everything u said was dead right. I'd say when the cold snaps kill everyone else I've found don't be afraid to go catch some 10" native golden shiners on a hair hook and toss em out deep to find out what actually lives there.
I’ve done my fair share of that as well!
hey man I really enjoy your videos, but I think it would be nice to see you make a video of you just going out and fishing with no editing and maybe talk us through your thought process.
I absolutely can add this to the list! Unfortunately we are approaching winter but in the spring
I've lived in florida almost all my life, but just in the last couple years bought a boat and took up bass fishing. It's so hard to find the fish here. But I'm gonna use what you've said in the morning when I hit orange lake and I'll let you know how it goes.
Good luck!
I can catch them on all of those in 1 day… minus the speed worm, just can’t figure that one out
That’s my favorite one!
I love fishing, I fish almost everyday and I have never caught a bass, I can catch catfish, bluegill, but I can’t get bass… ever. Idk what I’m doing wrong
Just keep trying just takes practice!
