    Jeff, You rock! I was in professional education for a few years of my career, and I can tell you it is NOT easy to put together what you do. The learning objectives, outlines, planning the modules, cameras, microphones, script, and on and on, are a lot of hard work. I want you to know that we as learning fishermen really appreciate it!!!

    I’ve fished the Carolina for a long time. The video is spot on very nice guide. I use the Carolina rig as a kinda depth finder and structure finder. You’re right you really can feel the whole bottom of the lake, feeling the difference of sand and mud is easy with this and a good rod

    Hey!! I got a new bait caster and talked to a guy that worked at bass pro, and luckily I picked the right guy because he was a professional bass fisherman. I asked him about baitcasters and he told me all about them and eventually invited me to fish him. I am going some time next week. Keep up with the videos man!!

    A well produced and presented video with excellent graphic category breakdowns.
    I don’t know if you ever (before your birth) seen the 1980’s commercially sold Carolina Rigs. They were pre rigged heavy 40+/- lb line with two 90 degree spring steel (stainless) elbows that held (about 1”) 20+/- lb line with two 3” finesse worms. The line went down the length of the plastic worm and had 2 hooks. One in the head, and one in the tail. The line was so stiff that the worms had a 90 degree kink in them from being folded in the package. I know that I was very skeptical when first seeing them, but on the first use at Lake Euphalla casting to a sandy beach with a fairly stiff wind and chop going on shore, 2 of us caught 24 bass in an hour. More than once, we caught two fish at a time. I have never seen these rigs sold since.
    Thanks,
    The old professor

  • @cheesecream8472
    @cheesecream8472 4 роки тому

    Started fishing with just a line to a hook. Within a week the carolina rig was my main rig and I love it. I can "feel" the bottom and love the floro leader like to be about 2-2.5 feet. Catches fish!!

    In all honesty I believe this is the most consistent Bass catcher year round. Even during a tough bite. I mean even the split shot is just a Carolina rig for shallower water. Simple Carolina rig and worm catches Bass anywhere
