#BassFishing #FishingTips #TopWaterFishing - Спорт
Took my son fishing today and I pulled out my walking lure... my son asked me if I had a mono leader. (I use mono leader for my walk lures) I asked "why do you ask?" He told me because Mr. Evers says it keeps the nose from dipping because it floats. Just wanted to let you know that you are reaching our youths. Total awesomeness.
Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge of fishing and gear with all of us avid average Anglers. Best personality among your peers. When I am down on my success and feeling defeated I can watch you and feed off your enthusiasm and joy of fishing. Keep the great videos Edwin.
Such a great and Humble Guy and not yelling at us saying you NEED half a dozen Rods and 200 hundred dollar Reels and I truly thank you for the great Intel on the Pro Qualifier etc.. I’ve heard it’s an amazing Reel. Stay safe my Friend Semper Fidelis
I have been really enjoying all of your videos very well done and informative I keep watching them over and over and pick up something I may have missed hope you keep them going Thank You
Thanks for those tips, Edwin!!!!👊🏻 Use the BPS Pro Qualifier and have no problem. They're my main reel! Stay Safe & God Bless!!
I picked up two 7’-4” MH fast favorite rods a month ago and love them for top water. One thing I struggle with is pitching, nothing really too helpful on the actual motion on utube. The first mistake I made was trying to use #12 mono. I’m probably not the only one out there. Keep it up great videos.
Thanks for the info, been trying to figure out what rod and reel to buy for top water. Subscribed!
Edwin you and Ott are my favorite fishermen and I loved that video of you guys fishing together.
I gotta hand it to Edwin, he kicked some serious tail using that pro qualifier series from Bass Pro Shops! Great video and so many can learn so much from you!
With colder weather coming, hope you do a video on Pitchin' a Jig and Craw to hard structure, presentation, subtle entry into the water etc. Thanks, I appreciate your efforts in putting this all together.
Will do!! Thank you.
Edwin, i just subscribed to your channel yesterday and cannot watch enough of your videos. Awesome channel and your advice will work perfectly here on South Africa as well. Very warm summer ahead and the fishing is going to be brilliant. As a teacher i have more than a month holiday so the bank and small boat will be my best friends until the wife starts complaining...GREAT channel again, Bud. One of the best i follow (up there with flukemaster, trf and of course Roland Martin).
Some other good ones too like Matt Sefan, Tyler Berger and Randy Blaukat to mention a few.
I love the old pro qualifier, I have had it for over 20 years and it it still works great. My favorite reel is a Curado DC, and I have a bunch of Curado 200s.
What an awesome video. I never thought about using a mono leader to my walking baits but I will do it next week when I am going to FL to fish.
Good luck!!
Awesome video. Keep em rolling
I love these types of videos U make. They help me out so much! Your awesome!
Enjoy you sharing your knowledge with us, always helpful. Messed up my Abu ambassador 521 the other day so looking to get a new reel, sounds like a good one.
You won’t be disappointed. Thanks for watching!
Awesome vid Edwin. And yes, I’m more a spinning guy, but I have 6 baitcasters too. And for the rcd, the good ole BPS Qualifier is most consistent and reliable. Lol
Great info, I’m right there with you on where to save a little bit of money in a setup. 👍
Great content learning a bunch thanks 🎣
E great information it helps in determining when I buy rods.
Thank for the pro tips....love it
Awesome informative video! Lots of people think they have to have the most expensive equipment out there. Good Stuff!!!
Nope don’t have to have the most expensive at all! Thank you.
The more I watch your videos, to more I appreciate you! You are such... a great genuine guy. No BS, simple, real, etc AND great (awesome) bass fisherman. Where do I sign in for the fan club? Lol!
Continue to post on your channel, it's gold!
Ok, now a question: It's September, nights are getting cold (I'm North of the border...), days are still nice but cooler. What are the 3 techniques I must carry with me right now. Yes, they are a lot more depending of the conditions but name 3 that MUST be in my boat no matter what. 3 "go to", 3 "no brainer" when the temperature is starting to drop (leafs are still green, no colors yet).
Topwaters- till water gets in the mid 50’s
Lipless cranks and
Burning a spinnerbait. Hope this answers your question.
@@EdwinEversfishing Thank you so much to take time to answer. It's never difficult to convince me to fish top water! Lol! But I will carry the 2 other ones for sure!
This is awesome edwin!!
Fantastic video! Tons of great information.. God Bless 🙏👊
Thank you!
Great information and gear break down! Always been a big fan of a fellow Okie! God bless and stay safe rippen lips!
Thank you Roland!!
Ordered one of the Pro Qualifiers this morning. I already have three and have found them to be very reliable.
I'm a lews guy and I just ordered one too... Thanks for the tip, E!
Thanks for making these videos! They are so helpful and informative. What is a good all around jig rod? Football jigs , swim jigs , flipping jig
I have a 7'4" MH bass x with a 8.2 shimano slx dc. Makes an awesome top water rod. I have a few mediums but they get most of there use for cranking square bills and medium diving crank baits. The only thing I really use my heavy action rod for is throwing big spoons or 10xd crank baits. I've learned a lot from watching you and the other pros over the years and I started doing tournaments a few years ago. I used the money I win from tournaments to upgrade gear when I can.
Keep it up!! thank you
Sweet video man! I'm a big promoter of the pro qualifier reel on my channel as well. Hard to beat for the price! 👊💪
#tacklejunkies
How do you keep track of your fish and live well during a tournament? How to you cull and keep track of your fish weight? Maybe some basic livewell and tournament tips and tricks video. 😎 Thanks for your videos E!
Thanks, for the great information.
Love the tips, thanks so much for sharing. My home lake is Wheeler in Decatur, Al. I watched your video from a couple of years ago when you fished it and you ran all the way to Guntersville Dam. Would love to have some thoughts from you of where to fish other than making that long run!
Noted. Will do! Thanks for watching
Thanks for the info
Thanks for the video. I've been using a 7'MH for my whopper plopper and seem to miss quite a few fish. I'll switch up to a medium rod and see if that helps.
Great videos
I thought I was the only one.. stuk to the bass pro qualifier and the jhony Morris version. Haha 😄 I love the way they work and feel. Super smooth. Compared to other brands out there . Big fan of the abu garcia. Have a couple. But my go to is the qualifier. 💪
I have made a living with Pro Qualifiers!! Thank you!
@@EdwinEversfishing when u coming back to falcon lake. 🎣
Love the rod video thank you !! And do a reel in depth please and why
Will do. Thank you!
Love your videos Edwin! Thanks for all the tips. Got any tips for bank fishing? I know covering water is important but dang my legs don't move too fast nowadays! Or tips and gear for co angling
Yes got some pond videos coming soon.
Like the pro qualifier as well won 5k with it. The ones making fun beforehand were short to come shake hands. Which made it all the sweeter
Can you do a video on Crankbait rods and if you can only have one or two. Thank you for your enthusiasm!
Great video! What about a setup for spinner bait/chatter bait????
Your channel is Awsome.
Thx for sharing
Enjoyed this one... Any info on rods, reels and setups is greatly appreciated...
Thank you i will do some more
Great information, I have champagne taste , but beer budget.
Man I look forward to your videos each week. I've been a fan for years. Watching your videos and learning you as a person is awesome. Maybe some day I can shake your hand and say thank you in person. Stay safe brother, good luck in future tournaments and I hope the good Lord blesses our pecan crops.
Thank you so much Robert! I look forward to the day we meet!
I still use reels I bought nearly 20 years ago. Lews laser reels I paid $60 each I beleive. Rods was and some still are BPS bionic blade and crankin stik rods. I wanted all my rods to feel the same. The rods had same reel seats and handles. I used to fish tournaments. Quit fishing for nearly 10 years. So now I rely on you to help me catch up with the times. If you want to learn Lake Hartwell I'll teach you. I lied I suck but I'm having fun trying to learn it.
You should do a video of all your rods that you use.
Great channel tks!
Never thought about putting mono leader on but i will from now on
It really helps!
Good info EE. Thx! I dont know if this excites you for a video topic, but as a bank fisherman I have weight and rod limitations to carry. What do u think of doing a video on carrying 2 or 3 rods and what all techniques i could do on these limited rods i carry. For example, i usually carry my finesse spinning rod, 6-8 med light, fast action to use for dropshot, ned rig, wacky rig. Then I have casting rod 7-2 MH fast action, for almost everything. Then i bought a dedicated jerkbait rod 6-11 probably a med action fast tip, its a Megabass levante jerkbait special. Per Tactical Bassin videos i think i could also use this jerkbait rod for small swimbaits like the 2.8 inch and small finesse jigs. I also have a 7-2 Heavy rod, fast action that i ptetty much just use for 6 inch swimbaits. I sometimes carry the heavy rod. I sometimes carry all 4 rods when i want to include the larger swimbaits that day. So im wondering what techniques i could overlap and use on my limited rod selection. For example, would crankbaits work better on the MH rod or the med jerkbait rod or finesse spinning rod? U follow me? Given three rods, what techniques could i use on which rod? Thanks buddy.
Absolutely will do it!! Thanks Mike for the suggestions!
For a new fisherman, what are 4 baits he should learn to master ? I think 4 is good starting numbers to build confidence bass fishing. Mark south Louisiana
Is wtd action done with baitcasting discipline?
Is it easier to do with baitcasting or with spinning? for shore saltwater.
👍 thank you
I got a Dobyns Fury 703C for topwater because I’m in a kayak and I need it to do a variety of things. I can’t carry 15 rods with me so my combos aren’t dedicated to one thing alone.
As far as rods go do you recommend a glass rod with softer tips? Or graphite?
Do you label somehow what each rod is spooled with so you can remember on the water?
Quick question, what would you say is the best all around gear ratio for topwater fishing? Throwing like, poppers and walk the dog style baits
Do you ever use a quick clip for changing topwater lures?
hey just wondering can I fish a 7 foot medium for jerk baits?
Is an extra fast rod tip bad for topwater?
Hey brother, how 'bout us bank fisherman? I`m 5'9 tall, would you choose a 6'6 rod for better action, or the 7'0 rod on those poppers for a little more distance?
Is that the Johnny Morris Platinum rod & reel?
Great info. I’d love to hear about your setup for jerkbaits?
All the medium 6/6 6/8 rods seem to only throw up to 5/8 at the most. Some of my spooks weigh 3/4 or so. Will that be ok? I’m throwing them on a 7/3 right now and it is wearing me out lol
How come you don’t use the same rod for top water with trebles and your crankbaits?
Great advice. What do you use for swim baits as in rod reel line and lures!
Great question I will do a video just for you Simon.
@@EdwinEversfishing I cant wait to meet you some day! Thank bro!
Edwin is there a way you could do a video on the right way to do and things we should look for and do when doing reel maintenance
Will do!!
@@EdwinEversfishing Thank you so much. I just bought some new reels and want to make sure I take care of them.
3:38...there's a creature in your vicinity...;)
What about copolymer line? Can it be used for topwater?
Edwin, I do have bait casters but my reels are not high speed except one that is 7.3:1. Is it ok to use a spinning reel and rod. Duckett medium light and smoke speed freak 6.2:1. I can throw it a long way. Thanks Edwin.🐟🎣
Spinning would be fine for most baits that you reel in like buzzbait and choppo. Might be harder to work a walking bait with though.
@@EdwinEversfishing l didn't think of that of course you are right.
I’ve got a 2, 7’ medium heavy fast action rods, one has 6:8:1 gear ratio and the other is 7:5:1, both 16 lbs mono. And then one 7’3” with 7:3:1 with 50 lbs braid, can you suggest what I should use each set up for?
Use the 6.8 ratio 7’ for spinnerbait and bladed jigs. Use the 7.5 same rod for football jigs
Use 7’3” for frogs, swimjigs etc
How bout 6’10” medium heavy for all around top water rod?
MH sounds a little stiff....
What action rod, I have a 6'6" med heavy fast action rod I bought a long time ago for creek fishing when I was younger for creek fishing that I have rarely used doesnt even have a reel on it currently. Is that too stiff and fast for walking baits?
I thirst would be ok, especially for bigger topwaters. If you loose a bunch on it go to monofilament to offset the stiffness. A medium would be best.
I always use 40# braid to a 15# mono leader for treble hook topwaters, and straight braid to single hook topwaters
A great budget rod for non walking topwaters: www.tacklewarehouse.com/Daiwa_DX_Type-H_Glass_Reaction_Casting_Rod/descpage-DXT.html
Awsome, thanks for the reply
What are you setups for sight fishing for bass
I will do a video just for you!
@@EdwinEversfishing Cool thanks! You made my day!
Would my jerkbait rod work? It is 6'10" medium, fast.
Yes same rod!!
Get the metal qualifier not the new one.
Babe , you got 20 shoes 👞 in there
I need my top-water! Lol
Just subscribed to your channel because your my kind of fisherman. Your not telling people they got to have $300 dollar reels and $300 rods. You've been using the same stuff for years. I stopped watching a lot of UA-cam guys because every year they're telling me this setup is so great and a year later it's this setup from a whole other company. Just not trustworthy or believable.
