    Really digging your videos. No fluff. No advertising. Just solid info delivered rapidly. Im a beginner angler with only experience fishing trout in faster moving spring fed rivers with lots of shoals. So fishing lakes and slow moving water is an alien concept to me. Your videos are second to none. Thank you so much Nat. ❤

    Ive been wanting to catch one of those since I got into fishing, the last time I was fishing was in September 2023 I used Canadian night crawlers on a simple bobber setup and I still didn't get any bites next time I'll try using a jig head with a piece of nightcrawler so I can catch bass hiding in deep water

    • @FishingwithNat
      @FishingwithNat  19 днів тому

      Largemouth are caught often on nightcrawlers, so keep trying or you can give another type of lure a shot. If you like using live bait, a minnow under a bobber is a good way to catch largemouth.

    • @FishingwithNat
      @FishingwithNat  7 днів тому

      My guess is that the bait just needs a slight tuning. If the line tie is slanted just a bit left or right, it will cause the bait to run off to the side and sometimes up and down instead of just diving down. A slight adjustment is probably all that you need.

  • @marcuslinton310
    @marcuslinton310 18 днів тому

    I call total BS on the idea that fish can recognize lures. The studies were BS because you simply cannot read fish minds and they certainly aren't going to tell us anything. Fish are just fish and for all the study knows the bass that wouldn't bite again possibly ate other bait fish after being hooked and simply didn't want to eat again for awhile. There is no possible way for anyone to justify this claim.

    • @FishingwithNat
      @FishingwithNat  18 днів тому +3

      Fair enough. I believe the study looked at captive largemouth bass where they could present lures to the fish multiple times and they knew what and when the fish were eating. So they just had to observe the fish's behavior toward a lure, no mind-reading involved.
