Man those are monsters!! Can't wait to see more of those videos.
Thank you very much. Hope I can find them again next time.
Those are absolute tanks, I’ve never seen them that big, looks like a great time, great video
Thank you very much. You’re right. I used to catch a few good sizes at the California Delta, but these ones are consistently huge! Almost everyone of them.
Dude!! Excellent video!! Redear are my favorite fish in the world!!!
This lakes has some huge redears. Thank you very much.
Shoot!!! These ain't just for SK, these hogs are for everybody! Great great vid. Man those are huge redears.
😂😂 yes, you’re right. Thank you
Giant monster gills.
I missed seeing your wife along with you. Thanks for the video.
Thank you very much. She had some urgent matter. I missed her too. With pleasure, hope I didn’t bore you.
Awesome bluegills the fish love that fertile lake!
Thank you very much. I agree with you.
Hoping it will be less windy out there so I can go on my kayak. I want to catch some of those monster bluegills and crappie too haha! Great video.
Thank you very much. Yes, hope it will be a calm day for you. Good luck and have fun.
We were out there Saturday and Sunday. Bass was on fire! Too bad didn't see you guys. We were in a red and grey tracker and launched clear lake oaks. Nice vid
Thank you very much. Good job on the bass. Would love to have meet you. Maybe next time. I did stopped by the oaks first and couldn’t launch, too windy for me.
Yea, the bass was hot on Sunday. Was sight fishing for bass. It was a blast.
WOW..... Those were some very big redear.....I know y'all grow them big over there..... They're for sure more fun than crappie and tasty..... Fine catches and Stay At'um
Thank you very much. If only you’re here, you’ll have some a lot of fun.
Wow, what a fantastic day on the water!
Thank you very much. Besides the wind, these redears made my day.
Wow what an awesome video the largest shell crackers I have ever seen
Yes this lake does have some huge redears. We hope to go back this year and try to find a few more of them. Thank you very much.
Dang those some monster gillz. 👍👊
Yes, they’re huge! Thank you
Nice Jiem,, some day I will be up there with my boat.
Thank you Khae. You should go.
Huge!!! Nice job.
Thank you very much
Those are some huge redear. Those fillets will be mighty tasty. I'm starting to become a fan. I noticed you said this ones for you SK. I follow him as well. Could you give more details about what you're using and how you're using it. You know a tutorial. Thanks. Keep the film rolling 🎥!!!
I do show what I use. It’s at 8:53. Thank you very much
That was an awesome video Jim. I agree that big red ears are a lot more fun to catch than crappie. They put up a good fight for a fish that size. That's why I like going to Havasu in Arizona, cause the red ears in that lake can be over 3 pounds. I didn't see your wife on the video. Looks like she missed out on the fun.
Thank you very much. Unfortunately, my wife couldn’t come. She did missed out. I would love to catch some 3 pounders, but Arizona is just too far.
Damn. Awesome catches. I love bluegirl fishing 😉lol
You should. Great fun, just like delta. Thank you
Incredible fishery for many panfish species! All males, huh? I bet a couple hens with eggs would routinely weigh beyond the 2 lb bench mark. Great vid as always!
Thank you very much. My guess was that those were all males. I totally agree if there were some hens, they would weigh over the 2 lbs.
WOW!!! Those are some pig's! Wish I could hook into a mess of those!
Thank you. I got lucky that day. You never know, you will if you fish at Clearlake.
Awesome video....
Thank you very much
Congratulations those were some monsters. I caught a bluegill once that was a pound twelve ounces looked like a dinner plate lol. Nice work buddy👍👍
Thank you very much. I was very lucky to have found some of these monsters this year here. Great fighting fish and lots of fun.
Fishing Addict How hard is it to find those schools and what water characteristics should I look for, i.e., depth, cover, time of day, etc. Is red ear fishing really better than crappie fishing?😊 Did you look for crappie first in your normal go-to spots? Redbud launch again? Lastly, what is that gray canister sitting on the boat’s floor?
@@aProudOG I always start off with crappies, and if I get bites that I couldn't hook them, my theory is that those will be bluegills/redears because they have smaller mouth to take the crappie lure. I always bring red worms with me; therefore, I would start going for bluegills. This time I launched at the State Park. The gray container is a cooler for my drinks. Its one of those thick ones. My wife got it on sale for $20, and she just couldn't let it go. LOL. Its great, I can sit on it with no worries of being bent.
Fishing Addict Thanks for always candidly answering my multitude of questions. You have helped me tremendously deciding which NorCal fishing options I should pursue and when. At 73 years old I’ve slowed down and can’t fish as often as I’d like to. Trying to maximize each outing is now more of a priority than it used to be. That said, I glean from your reply here that when the wind is too rough to launch at Clearlake Oaks, it’s worth the extended motor vehicle drive (20 minutes?) around the lake to the other side to launch at the State Park. Is the wind generally more friendly on that side of the lake? Good to know if that’s the case. Again, thank you for your consistent informative videos and replies to all questions regarding same.
You’re very welcome. If the wind comes from west, I would launch at state park or library park. That day I just decided to launch at state park. Got tired going a little farther by myself.
Nice video!
Thank you very much
Wow what a beautiful day you had.
Thank you very much. It was an awesome day.
You know you're wrong for not taking the Wife😄 Another Top-Notch Video! 👍Makes me wanna move back Home to Cali😎 I live in Georgia now👎
😀😀😀 I would never leave her behind, unfortunately, she had something to do. Thank you very much. Hope you’ll be able to find some good fishing places there in Georgia.
Wow 🤩 man nice catches hey wait a minute where’s the star player aka Jordan so that would make you pippen lol nice work
😂😂😂 not Pippen, maybe King James. I was saddened too that she couldn’t make it out with me. Thank you very much.
Fishing Addict yes sir ty for the clips
You out today at the locks about 1:15 this afternoon thought I recognized the headgear and boat
No, have not been there since last weekend.
@@fishingaddict5638 yes sir thank you again always appreciate the info
Oh my goodness those are huge! What bait were you using?
I just use red worms. Thank you very much
First viewers! Feel privileged.
Thank you very much
You guys master catching fish. Where location and what bait you used
Thank you very much. Clearlake and I just used worms.
Nice slab's my friend
Thank you very much my friend. More fun fighting them than crappies 😂😂
@@fishingaddict5638 where are you located, would love to link up with you one day and fish like crazy
I’m sorry, there were too many others who also want to fish together, and if I agree to you, it wouldn’t be right. Hope you understand.
No problem my friend, stay blessed and keep on slapping, you and your wife are the best
@@jamescurry9593 Thank you. stay safe
I live in Alaska but grew up in Cali. I fished clear lake most of my life. I'll be in clear lake on May 10-13th fishing clear lake oaks area. We'll be staying at Indian Beach Resort. Where can I find those red ears at? We will have a boat also.
Usually shallow next to weed line. Use red worms with a small weight.
Huge Redears! Where are fishing at?
Clear Lake in Northern Ca. I think you figured that out.
Great catches, seen you and your nephew yesterday. We wanted to come say hi but didn't want to intrude lol. How did you guys do?
Oh you wouldn’t have intruded. Say hi next time. We didn’t get any halibut, but 3 stripers 8-11lbs. What about you? We didn’t see anyone catch any halibut. Was a tough day yesterday.
Fishing Addict Trolling for halibut in bay tomorrow and discouraged you didn’t get any your last trip. Were you drifting live bait or trolling? Was water clarity off? Did you get your stripers drifting near Alcatraz?
@@fishingaddict5638 It was definitely tough, seen 6 caught out of all those boats. Bite came early before 9am and disappeared quickly. All of the fishes were caught on live bait from what we saw. We ended with no fish, only 80 crabs for the day.
@aProugOG This was at Tomales bay not SF Bay. We didn’t get any halibut, but we did managed 3 stripers 8,9 and 11 pounds. We drifted live anchovies.
Fishing Addict Thanks! Drove to Millers Launch Ramp last week just to scout around b/c I’d never been to Tamales Bay. The route was full of twists and turns, more than I expected...would have not been easy towing the boat. What route do you use from East Bay? p.s. Talked to one angler and his wife who were in their car just pulling out at ramp and he said he caught a 35-lb striper the day before but nothing that day. Wow...I’ve never seen a striper that big.
Can you please share where your launching from at least?
Clearlake oaks.
You should change channel name to Fishing Master 👍🎣
😂 😂😂 thank you for your confidence in us, but we still have a lot to learn.
Hey do you guys use a mic on your GoPro? If you guys do what mic?
No, I don’t have a mic on the GoPro. I bought one and it didn’t help the wind noise. This time I talked close to the GoPro. Hope you’ll get to go catch some
Those look like clear lake specials
😂 it seems that way. Thank you very much
Would you please describe what bait and jig you used? What was your technique?
I just use red worms. Sinker on bottom and a hook about 12” above the sinker. Cast out then wait for the bite.
@@fishingaddict5638 thanks, easy peasy!
Clear Lake can be very windy at time's. Not trying to go too far out
Yes in the afternoons the wind can get bad. I’ve been soaked may times.
Absolutely huge good eating red ear👌🏾👌🏾😳😳😳
They put up a great fight too. Thank you very much.
Oh men i feel jealous catching those monster, wish i live near by, can people fish along the shore in this lake? I live in Idaho and where is this lake anyway? Thanks.
Yes, people can fish along the banks. It’s Clearlake in California. I was very fortunate to have found them. I believe there are lots of crappies in either Utah or Idaho right, and unlimited. Thank you very much.
Yes but not as big as like what you're catching, unlimited. Is there limit where you at? If we will have a chance we will drive and come try fishing sometime at Clearlake.
Oh I see. Yes, it’s 25 per person here in California. Have fun if you do come over.
What state are you catching those red ear that weight 2 lbs and how is your boat not moving out of spot .
I’m in California at Clearlake. I have a Minn Kota with I Pilot with spot lock. This helps me a lot
@@fishingaddict5638 I and my wife were in Oxnard, California 2 years ago. I didn't think California had any fishing lakes like that. Man I never saw red ear that size.
We used to catch a few about these sizes in the Ca Delta, but not consistent like this lake.
I believe the reason these grows so big is because they are not a targeted species.People go to Clear lake for the Bass and Catfish. Recently, crappies has been the menu and that's pretty much it. Bluegill are underrated and thrived without being targeted. Good job regardless.
Very possible. Thanks.
THUMBS-UP
Thank you very much
Awesome bluegills! THUMBS-UP👍
Thank you very much for stopping by.
Everyone of those hogs would make one heck of a fish fry!
You’re very correct! I had some delicious dinners. Thank you very much
Do you guys charter trips?
Sorry, no guiding license.
@@fishingaddict5638 That sucks. I would love to take trip there to grocery fish!
How far away from the tules you were fishing? The water there is about 8 ft deep right?
About 60 to 70ft, but they move around a lot. You’ll have to search around.
Yea. I was at that spot yesterday morning. Was looking for crappie. Got a few dink bass there and that was it.
No crappies?
It was too windy. I didn’t get to go around looking.
Haha. Well the redears made up for the crappies. Good catch regardless.
What lake is this
Clearlake, Ca
Say add, if you show in the video why not let us see the jig that u fish with , what was the red ear hitting
I did show it. You might’ve forwarded. Anyways it just red worms
Ok thanks
Too bad that fish from clear lake has too much worm
There are worms in every fish in any lakes, but the worms tend to show it’s presence in the summer. I think it’s due to water temp. So far, the ones I cleaned hasn’t shown any worms yet.
@@fishingaddict5638 I was there Sunday, and every single one we got were infested with worms.I mean lots of worms inside and out,especially the black bass.Great that yours did not have any.
I don’t eat any black bass besides a few crappies and bluegill.
My girlfriend and I fished Wednesday all day and every single bass and bluegill was full of parasites so u either dont care or you’re really lucky to catch the ones that dont have any parasites 👍
When I catch any crappies or bluegills that have any type of soars I throw them back. I only keep the clean ones. Not sure if that made the difference.
