Rocky, I'm almost 60, and back when I was a little kid my family would go to Bass Lake for 1 or 2 weeks every summer (in California) and my cousins and myself would catch blue gill, golden shiners, and crappie using white bread (Kilpatricks Bread) we would literally catch and release 100's of blue gill every week. You are the first UA-cam channel to show this that I have seen. My big brother (15 years older) than me taught me this and every other fishing method. Sadly he passed away in April from ALS, after a career as a Fish and Game Warden in California, he retired as a Captain and absolutely loved to fish and hunt. This video reminded me of him and special moments as a child, thank you.
My grandfather raised me . I'm up there now and can honestly say he taught me right on the river wading for red-eye with seined crawdaddies . I so miss him .
Heck yah ole bread balls use to fish with them when I was a kid cheap bait right there and everything loves them Greta catch and always awesome videos you bring everytime
Great Vid ! That was the Darling family that came down to eat with Aunt Bee and Andy..they'd come down to town every so often 😆 The best episode was when they had to come get Andy to come back up in hills to take care of that pest Earnest T Bass 🤣 you remember when Earnest T ran off with Barney wearing a wedding dress !🤣🤣🤣 Papa Darling was actor Denver Pyle who also played Uncle Jesse on Dukes of Hazzard. Well there's ur trivia for the day Folks ! ...and if you see Goober tell'em i said Duh Huh ..😁 ...and George Lindsey was from Arab Ala. wudnt he ?
You’ve got a smooth and chill demeanor about youse. Much respect to you and your father🫡 I was fishing years ago and ran outta bait, I started using marshmallows and the bluegills tore them up! You should give it a try sometime sir.
Rocky enjoy the time with your Daddy. Hope to see him in the next video sitting in a chair pulling in bluegies right next to ya. God Bless y’all from Ca.
Wife and myself going out tomorrow morning for bluegill. We will fish in an oxbow lake we’ve been fishing for forty plus years. They move into that oxbow every September, and will stay until ice up. We will use wax worms for bait on 1/16 oz. Jigs probably catch a lot but keep about a dozen 7 1/2 to 8 inchers everything smaller or bigger will go back. Trees are turning up here in Michigan but it’s gonna warm up this week, my mom called it Indian summer. NICE CATCH ROCKY, and love that spot👍
Thanks for another great video Mr Drake I really appreciate every one of these videos thank you so much for sharing and I'll catch you soon your friend Billy Simmons
Youre talking about the darlings on andy griffith. Uncle jessie, from the dukes of hazard, played the head of family. They sure could play some music too. Oh darlene was sweet on andy 😂
Of course he is serious about it. He is wild and you got a hook in his jaw. He don't want to see daylight or you!! I like my chanell cat for eatin at about 18 to 24 inches.
Rocky, In today’s world they would send counselors to his house, thinking he’s jumping , to commit suicide. I was at the doctor the other day, and parked in this 8 floor parking lot. Came back to the car and there were police all over. There was a lady looking over the view smoking a cigarette and the security thought she was jumping The lady said don’t tell my husband he won’t take me anywhere. Haha Take care Great video
@@RockyDrakeOutdoors hmm how do you get distance on the cast then? surely your bait must weigh very little and you are not using finess line either which would help in longer cast as rgtfm would say

Thanks for watching 🎣🎣
Rocky,
In today’s world they would send counselors to his house, thinking he’s jumping , to commit suicide.
I was at the doctor the other day, and parked in this 8 floor parking lot. Came back to the car and there were police all over. There was a lady looking over the view smoking a cigarette and the security thought she was jumping
The lady said don’t tell my husband he won’t take me anywhere. Haha
Take care
Great video
Thanks
I appreciate your comment 🎣🎣
Brisco Darlin. Also know As Uncle Jesse on Dukes of Hazard
Thanks John
I appreciate your comment 🎣🎣
The darling family?
That’s them 😀
Thanks for your comment 🎣🎣
are you using a split shot? also does the dough ball tend to float at first then sinks as it gets soggy?
No split shot
Yes it does sit on top for a few seconds 🎣
Thanks for your comment
@@RockyDrakeOutdoors hmm how do you get distance on the cast then? surely your bait must weigh very little and you are not using finess line either which would help in longer cast as rgtfm would say
Tighten ya drag
I thought I had it tight 😊🎣🎣
Rocky! What happened to the turtle? lol
I turned him loose back into the lake 🎣🎣
The channel catfish don't when to quit 🤣
Thanks for watching 🎣🎣
The Darlings were the mountain family you were thinking of in Andy Griffith.
Thanks
I appreciate your comment 🎣🎣
I'm 71 and I could fill a pickup bed with all of the bluegill I have eaten in my life.
Thanks for watching and thank you for your comment 🎣🎣
I'm going to Walmart they won't bite my bread from Publix!! LOL

It's cheaper fishing with worms if you go catch them yourself instead of buying them.
Thanks for your comment 🎣
I appreciate it 🎣🎣
The Darlings and their daughters crazy boyfriend 😅
