[Music] [Music] [Music] do [Music] [Music] what is up everyone welcome back to the channel welcome to the first pro bash shootout of 2021 and it's gonna be a team event i'm not gonna tell you who my partner is right now i'm gonna tell you catch a few bass he's been caught a few bass in his years but who are we up against okay these boys right here we got carl jochenson bp brandon pauline these guys are the hottest two anglers definitely uh over there the bassmaster elite series caught them everywhere carl ian brandon brandon you've won like freaking 27 000 tournaments i mean carl you know you want you know you had your first big one you've had some solid finishes yeah and then of course who is my team partner okay otter i defoe what's up jack and i and this is the only tennessee river lake i've never been on that seriously never and i'm gonna fish barefoot but the the one catch and i really appreciate these guys doing this today but the one catch is they have to fish strictly with a rappler og slam i just just worked these up these babies up in the garage and uh and just brought them down here today so a fresh batch off the press and uh and yeah i really appreciate number one i do i appreciate you guys doing this to help help promote my little bait absolutely hey dude ain't no problem this is the other catch okay this is the winning to make things fair yeah because we have i think there's 14 calories in the lineup but this is 12 right here i picked them out yeah and uh this is the deal we only will actually select each crankbait color but brandon and their team gets to go first and selecting their crankbait coach so if they pick a color we cannot throw that color today so it's all different so don't only be fair you guys i wish i knew i wish i knew exactly which one was oh but they're all good and that's wheeler freaked out i mean 12 of the 14 dynamite colors i feel like that's there's perch and silver's they get the whole man you don't get to throw that color you can't throw that color once we select it did you hear like this oh that's not fun [Music] i'm really curious to see what he's going to pick yeah i'm going with some gizzards let's just go ahead and clean them out water's pretty clean we've got some sun i don't know maybe this dude that's a better one the strategy that's better we've gotta think yeah i think okay it's kind of painful this is scary it was bad enough you take it green you got you got green we got green yeah you got green gizzards yeah i'm gonna pick this guy yeah i already say it he's like don't don't pick her up root beer i can't believe old red stand already well see a lot of this is based on water color and yeah absolutely yeah absolutely water's fairly clean we have about a foot to two foot of visibility bright skies and we've actually just picked up a little ripple which is new so uh darker yeah yeah we'll go big shot big shave that will stink thanks pigs [Laughter] that's your turn back to me back to you and we didn't discuss this i mean we didn't i know we did and they may have but we did not we did not well i just i just know we haven't always got a shad i'm i'm gonna go i'm gonna go with i'm gonna go with citrus it's kind of oh no i'm gonna go with helsinki i'm going with helsinki yeah he's going with the helsinki yeah going with the helsinki back to who is it back to carl yeah okay then we've got it covered we've got a cup we've got on the shoulder yeah you should [Music] what's to be funny is if one of these last pick ones is going to be the ones that win it's like literally in dodgeball he's like the last guy he makes the play that wins the game live rivershad yeah oh what do you think wheels otter ah so we have two shads we have uh like a clear water um probably goes probably what's funny is if this was a spawn event that probably would have been the first that would have been the first made to be big 100 it is pre-spawn so a lot of these fish waters are about 53 54 degrees this is great and so hey can we use when i use some of them colors or yeah oh yeah absolutely absolutely it's just the whole boat it's like this whole box is our boat it's all we get to fish from today for three full hours of competition all right this video one eight minimum pound eight let's get let's take it to the lake boys let's go we're using official raffle scales yep the only scale there is the official official official ride that is the other deal yeah every fish counts one eight minimum total on a deal three one hour periods we're going to do a 10 minute break but it's a 10 minute break in between five minutes bro we're it break yep so quick five-minute break sit down make sure everything's working split all right there you guys have it you know the rules we got our box of plugs right here otter let's do it let's do this thing will's and i only shared a boat together once before it cleaned my clock it's an ultimate match fishing on chickamauga so i'm glad i'm fishing with him i mean not not that i want to be fishing against these guys but i'm just glad i'm glad we're on the same team because it's it's going to be cool to me because we fish so similar yeah i mean in practice the way we look at stuff it is so so very similar so it'll be cool to be on the front deck side by side trying to accomplish the same goal and uh right here just take me to them you're my god jack i never been here before [Music] [Music] [Music] what's up everybody welcome to the first pro bash shootout of the year thank you guys so much for joining us we have almost 500 people live right now and these events have we started this up basically during covid last year because a lot of tournament bass fishing was not happening and it's something that's turned into something that's a lot of fun competing these three hour tournaments it's a three-hour tournament um three one hour periods a pound and a half minimum on this body of water we are nika jack like pre-spawn water temperature varies from about 50 degrees to 54 so i'm gonna try to i'll be here and i'll be in the chat room trying to answer some of y'all's questions um but just giving you guys a little bit of a rundown of what really to expect another thing in it is ultimately um we're just having fun we're having a good time and team format fishing some people call them dog fights uh down here in tennessee team format to me is always one of the most fun going out one of the most fun events you can possibly fish going out there with your buddies um enjoying um that time it's uh it's something really special so i will tell you this we did have a quick run um right around we were able to have like 15 minutes to sort of get to our locations well in total brandon paul in fashion brandon decides to run 35 miles up the river so we're gonna have the first 15 minutes we'll probably be you'll see the front of bp's boat um carl running chopping down the lake but we will be casting so without further ado here we go first 2021 pro bash shootout of the year let's go [Music] i've got mine laying down there tell you it's pretty handy the scale the scale's handy yeah our stuff there's more stuff like you can see them way out there yeah okay there's some more right there sorry to tell what i'm looking at just yet i got shad that's what i got on my twelve yeah yeah that's why i got rigged up on twelves thirty seconds oh i see the clump over now that's why i like 80 foot two on the on the 360 because that's if i see it at 80 i can maybe touch it but when i get it to 60 like i mean i'm gonna be in it see i'll be over here do this wheels i like your rule don't suck that's that's the game play that's the game plan gave him 10 seconds [Music] oh only about it that's so ridiculous that's me you don't have to run mine down i don't stop it that much ain't gonna get that much of a look sorry you better start swimming you oil my cricket no it's definitely not yeah it's already got me thinking of putting on roof here that orange it's sitting there ain't it i hated that one cass i ain't it seems okay we failed it really in or no yeah i felt it one time got it you gonna go yeah he's gonna go where'd you put the scale right there i got it all right like i want to help i want to help you but i want to fish maybe he might even be 113. starting yeah was that our first pick that was our first pick wouldn't it one twelve cool right yeah i just missed it was golly they got rattled it dude uh-huh coca-cola didn't get it i mean it just rattled it 112 on the board i start wheels yeah i feel like that 360 i looked at it yeah to the right okay so you need to throw right underneath the left so you need to throw where you're at okay this is correct that's not far off gotcha the bite i had was kind of like where you caught that one throwing about that tent yeah it was where that that one right i mean is it just didn't get it i'm gonna put red beer on i can't stand it i caught that one on earlier that had it just eight i'm like yeah yeah that's right right right big thing that'll be interesting too i think we're both doing 12 here right now right yeah you throwing 12 that's what i'm throwing it'll be different places would go i mean because we're fishing one bait but how we've got it on 12 14 17 20. i know and how you know how you can take that'll be a cool thing i think for people to learn 100 that's how you take one bait but put different line on it if they're on like one act right right you can throw it on eight get it [Laughter] but yeah you can take you take that one action and and cover cover all the bases with it i feel like grass feels good so i want a lot burn it but i don't know if it's quite warm enough not in that grass it feels good it's pretty hill grass well you get just a little little wind behind that thing i'll really get out there right home yep for your uh your bird's length at all or no no yeah yeah yeah that was a hard there's a little hard deal over there it was a club of grat like as soon as i left the first thing i saw was a pump of grass uh the next one was on it was on the hard deal so they're on the they're on the bird next one yep it was out there about towards that voltage sign feels like a decent one i don't know he might make it he ain't big yeah i think he'll go i think we might have one that'll go on the root beer don't fall oh he's gonna be close i don't know i don't know wheels i'm not feeling so good about it oh yeah he need to eat his wheaties i don't know if he's gonna go one eight one eight we're not re-weighing we're just trying to get it saved on the scale it was 1 8. [Music] yep 1 8. [Music] that's a they might be running up to the dam yeah they have been known to run a long way both of them they might be locking through they buy them [Music] that one suspended up higher is that a fish one eight it lays a lot like like gunners will don't i mean real flat but it's not you got some got some spin strips on that yeah modifications were accepted you can't always tell them no i mean they didn't they didn't ask we didn't tell it's just you know you know you don't have to tell them that that's that's a should be a given right sharpie suspend strips all that buff the spirit of innovation the club we hit earlier was back it's back over that way uh oh yeah dang the big old mark there that's funny i switched the root beer was like second cast i mean i said i know that that's what did it but the timing of it was pretty good if we don't get a bite here we won't if we get one we'll the next one there's a lot of stuff in there so ain't no doubt that live stuff you learn just how many fish are in them and the water i mean like that's that's a crazy thing well it's bass crappie whatever it's like 360 i mean we see a lot of stuff we never did but it's that's not what not what you see was live look at look at all the eelgrass we pulled up we we weren't even getting it to the boat as we're just cutting the grass a lot of lawn clippings right here foreign just even along here looks great i think the amount of current just along here yeah like i like how it slows up right on there yeah it's kind of falling in there that orange one like that you think it's cleaner water yeah that's so wild there's a dirty water line yeah yeah yeah i touched him on that one yeah like one little tick yeah treat no updates bam you can put the casting rings on on your way points on that on the bird with them like they went pretty well yeah pretty good yeah they did pretty good damn that looks good girl's diving on something go on a good one look like a fish yes that's an adjustment you're 116 from the one yeah just uh to the left yeah the uh that that dollar mark was like right over there yeah it was like it did start kind of picking up some grass over this way and then uh and they kind of come up come out on that little knob oh they caught a three pounder oh yeah three four yeah yeah we're not not quite too but we're getting yeah that feels really good i mean that grass with the bottoms like that bottom feels crunchy yeah i think jump the other side work our way out might as well get up to the good stuff that should be where they're at it's all in how you slap you can slap it hard as long as you graze the top you know if you just pound you slam it down she gone yeah yeah you can do you can do this number right yeah but you go pow like that just skimming yo but you you slam him down that'll be the last time yep ain't got it yeah we got four others i used to use them real fragile ones but hope it takes you a day to build and then five dollars to get painted you're like no you're not going to mess him up slap him on the water and little plastic bait you get to get the story yeah that ain't no big deal oh yeah uh it shows like we're like straight out from it it would be like dead towards those two campers are still still a decent little piece from 106. yeah you should be about [Music] oh it's about to go down interesting yeah yeah nobody home on that one i might want to buy it anyway there's another i got there's one more dot right up here like straight ahead 235 no he's limbsing yeah yeah that was i think this was grass and that that next one was that little thing came off that tree that sounded rough and this is where that should be this mouse this looks so good if you catch one troll one still gonna count it feels so good how much what's it say on the top oh did you hit yeah okay color change looks so good let's go again i did get a little shell on that cast [Music] this one needs some new line on it here rough places in it [Music] um oh that was a swisher [Music] then you're like downtown ain't you you like about downtown chattanooga up there or is it current it's not quite hitting that yeah yeah yeah but it's like 10 miles per hour it's like a very similar setup yep got him yeah yeah spot yeah i will take it i think you'll keep yeah we thought we're gonna get one up there gotta throw a shot back at him oh yeah he's he might go two he's fat all right he's gotta be one eight oh first fish is exactly the same 112. nice nice work we're on the board [Music] no more they still just got the two yeah okay yeah spock got things rolling um maybe just fish that next little stretch and then get to our stuff and then get to that good night you want to do it they're eating that root beer i mean little fish i call them reaper that they've had like that this is like crossways perfect perfect i i love i love some orange when that water's cold i mean maybe you don't want them over too much that's right this clears it but you got man you gotta have a horse oh yeah yeah yep yeah what you think it's gonna be two two six two six two eight two eight two and a half pounder yo in there yep i got it here i got it oh they got a they got a 112 yeah so 2a that gives 512. i got it yeah i don't i didn't quite feel the grass i just bombed it way out past it and it hadn't been like right as i got to it don't just locked it up okay little corners look so good well hidden failure was already [Music] it was nice to throw a shot that real quick just okay just one over the bow oh a nice cast yeah i got a root beer [Music] it really is and it's it's something there's got a good one and dt's and slim and all of it [Music] those two corners on the next one just hit the two corners and roll like when it's two you got four or five foot but when it's cloudy super dark wind blowing yeah yeah that's right but bright bluebird not much wind you know it's you can get you can get the right conditions and vary from it but it's just a good good good cold water you ever throw it when it's warm at all yeah like right around the bluegill that's a really good bluegill yeah that's i've heard guys say that about chartreuse root beer and i never really considered it but it definitely is is the water stain i don't know what that is so for me chartreuse root beer is one i love if i'm fishing a place that's got spots yeah i don't know why but man i've always caught spots good on chartreuse river we got shad wraps paint that color man i've caught so many on you see more on that yeah so many smaller ones [Music] like a one pounder in the first period or something maybe that crop is suspended they must be schooling where they're at every cast nice little crappy jig out there and catch us some dinner [Music] step there yeah now they handled it together hanging out it's gonna have crawford like through that basser crappie are like uh people in other countries that don't care about your face bass they're like dude get mad give me a little room here i don't want to touch with my tail fish from this body of water lucky we're letting them go touching each other the whole time that's crazy no swimming or biting because they're dumping straight oh it's that first couple does i know i mean it's gonna be it seems like what's in your first throw yeah these [Music] areas nice this might come back in 10 minutes first though catch another one you uh they catch a lot of big ones down here like five pounder a big [Music] catching 20 pounds that's a pretty big clump there it's funny how that eelgrass grows like that crazy yeah i don't they don't spread out you know i mean it will cover them we'll cover the bottom but they don't wonder yeah chokes it out that's like where that place is up there where we fish give us one more grass yeah let them know we're still alive i'll eat one of these a day i'm good finally okay a little breeze hitting it got 5 12. uh 3 3 15. yep 215. 3 15. man i feel like one took the water off of it that's crazy to me how dead not you put your bait on his head there was one following was there i felt like one took the water off of it what's we just gotta go you hit that little next opening yeah yeah how many times it still ain't really it's like it's not it's not like it's a breeze but it ain't might come back in here like four and it'd be on like donkey kong yeah i had i don't if you saw one if there was one followed mine in i know i had one swat at it [Music] i didn't even want to look at my phone if they've got another good one yeah i they haven't but i don't want to look at my phone somebody tell me why they they like the old tracks they like the old tracks better with all right let's do it live because the the motor points to it where it was like the lowrance motor okay it's not the end of the world like yeah i was thinking andy told me the same thing he's like man it's kind of it's kind of goofy a little bit because you're not dang i feel like i rattled it again is [Music] [Music] [Laughter] that was the first several times i ever went to huntersville that's all i did was fish bridges but by before it was cool i was cranking bridges before everybody did see that's one place you're a lot smarter than me you know turn your maps off yeah i don't i don't think that i don't think that far ahead yeah because they they study that i mean i crap blame them but yeah it's gotta be smart big o big old mega clump i have to adjust that 360 a little bit it drives me nuts being off a little bit like it is it's like hey you follow i've been i've been firstly in the first because i didn't fish hardly any in practice like literally 45 minutes i thought dude i didn't the whole time i didn't get a ride out of the box to 4 15. yeah but uh i started fishing and i'm like man i'm not hitting my stuff sometimes and i look at my my deal was twisted just a little bit just tweaked just a little bit and then i hit everything first oh it's close yeah the wrong way [Music] any pliers or anything i'll keep slinging i'm fishing fishing totally blind [Laughter] they were just fishing it's fishing i think it work i started with a flasher and no graph not no gps you know that was why we started off fishing we put our put our that's what that is that's a flasher yeah that's all that is it looks out you're underway that way yeah we could have done that 50 years ago turned it forward you you have a little outside knob and you adjust your scale that's all that is the darn flasher little stringy stuff [Music] yes it's so little you can't quite pick it up yeah it's pretty thin and subtle in it got it was it it came out of eelgrass [Music] i hadn't failed it i don't think i don't think i was quite getting down to it i need some strips on mine for that should have brought two rods with 12 one for one for deep all right [Music] put 10 on one or something yeah he tweets that one in the box look at all look at all them chasing no yo where do you think he's gonna go a two pounder two pounder work all right nice job whales hey we got a real good team yeah a little bit you know yeah not a bad team not at all so we had 5 12 so now we got 7 12. [Music] do i yeah justin texted us said we better win j mark j martin dead yep just don't suck that's what he wrote on my boat one time [Music] oh i'm not going to throw it real far because there's more i'm down there for sure is that a better one yeah [Laughter] that's crazy yeah but one of those little ones further had been caught before zero meals yeah no hills that's pretty cool even one another two pound another two pounder yeah all right no we appreciate you okay should be 9 12. that's just getting stupid now that means jerk i'm hoping that meant to say 112. 912 score trager update let's just walk into this next marshall spotlight i'm looking after you baby nice suckers yeah it's huge yeah it got totally flat yeah we're gonna have to hit up we're gonna have to hit a stereo if they keep that pace up it's insanity that's like the biggest fish there is yeah we're just saying a 512 is a giant yeah on a 712's even that's insane well that's the that's the deal right there that you see them you see them quit acting you know do that yeah okay okay yeah let's go on interesting wheels yeah it was pretty yeah [Music] so as much as anything they must i bet you they're on that bridge we're going to hit one of these spots and they're going to be loaded one is just a little bit of backflow that's our only high chance we're not going to one until them here and now we've just got to find a spot where they're grouped up now wish it should be felt that might have just been the grass it sure felt like a fight dude that's a big old spot on him [Music] yep come on baby we need this big old sucker right here as long as i don't knock him off that's a pretty one there thank you oh yeah yeah we got the old black spot on i like pulled it and twisted it dude one wheeled it time is it right now 3 12. okay i'm glad you asked my good god [Laughter] in here i was pretty sure and i had one rattle it just didn't get it 313 we got two minutes five two five two do you think they're uh sorry fifteen pounds okay yeah fourteen fourteen right on the edge of that current and the grass oh green gizzard doesn't call it biggie then they go big yep take a break get a little bit okay oh this has got to be good dude this has got to be good look at that one minute 315 lines out 315 odds what's that mean is that what it is oh yeah i bet it is it has to be yeah that's the total we'll just call it but still that means they dry this dude off here a little bit i mean they're still smoking him up if they're 15 pounds it's going to be some strips is that you guys that must be your brody on that taster because at first it was like it's like 112 3 4 i'm like oh they got a 112 and a three four and then i was like oh they got a 5 12. damn and then it was like 7 12 and i'm like oh we're still in the game [Laughter] well i mean that makes me feel a little bit better that you guys don't have a 5 12 a 7 12 like we thought we really missed something we were just like like carl we're 40 minutes in and we're like 18 pounds they're catching them every cast and they're all five pounds or better the 512 and the 712 was believable as soon as it went 912 i was like [Music] not all of them not all of them that big one no he did that big one though and the ones i call the ones you caught now yeah but like probably two yeah two for yeah all right everyone is having a great evening we have so much fun shooting these events and uh so for some of those who just joined on we have quite a few people out here right now we are this is an og rappel event so this i literally created this bait quite a few years ago actually he made a bill to go into this crank bait and ultimately um came to wrap with this idea and they've come out with a crankbait called an og slim and so in this event we ultimately are all throwing the same crank bait but different colors so in the beginning of this we actually picked out those colors and no one else could throw this so one team got six colors the other team got six colors and we chose those in the beginning so if you want to go back in the meeting this will be posted on the channel later on um so but that is the whole premise of this debate this event was ultimately to shoot one uh one day fishing three hours of competition all throwing the same bait type of bait that is so that has been a lot of fun to shoot we have a five hour break right or five-minute break right now and that is i mean i love this you guys have heard me talk about how much i love uh team formats but this is also just so much fun to do for three hours of competition to be able to go out here um and get on it and try to catch these bass and figure it out because actually we had spent a little bit of time actually gotta just go out there on nickel jack and spend a little bit of time and look at the lake but never caught a fish but then ultimately trying to figure it out and getting a little bit of a hint i've never caught a fish in these areas that we were actually fishing right now these specific spots never even got a bite there or i've never even found these places and so i just rolled up just fishing and just fishing that pattern that we sort of figured out and what that is ultimately is offshore grass fishing some of that offshore grass in that four to six foot zone and i talk a little bit more in depth about this but i will be in the comments um ultimately uh going through some of the questions and trying to reply to you guys we truly appreciate each and every one of you and so for if you guys are enjoying this content make sure to give us a like big thumbs up we truly appreciate that and share this on your social accounts we truly appreciate it on to the action yeah thanks guys so cool that's all i love about love about balls there was no doubt more in there i mean i i know i had one rattled it right before that one right before you caught that one and then i had another one hit it when i picked my rod back up and jerked it i had one hit it yeah let's run over here and fish this bridge with that breeze blowing over now it'd probably be pretty good it's actually kind of pushing us you don't feel like you're moving but you actually are this is more this looks like 9 10. is it pretty much flat to where that grass is or is it yeah okay a sad one i just like ran over something i got it oh yeah it was that one yes yeah yeah you're right yeah was that inside there um yeah i think so we've got to [Laughter] that's what happened yeah but you know then it's like you don't got a big that's a good one sitting there yeah pull up reel it through there you go yeah yeah then once but once you mess them up that thing i ain't playing no games the water ain't i guess you know there's more there but it's like it ain't enough current hitting there or the wind they block you know where you're gonna catch three four five and and there ain't 50 there there's three or five [Music] feels good yeah it was that one it's kind of in front of us now i think it's down there you know backfield 12. he gets down there yeah for sure especially with the yeah with the deals on there yeah yeah it'll get that's i know people i'd uh some people first saw and stuff they're like i can't believe they're calling us the six foot diving bait looks like i've only run three or four of them yeah and i'll put that thing out there you'll see you'll you'll see that right there you know i think even when the with dq and those guys when i first showed it to them they were like they don't really get that deep so yeah i didn't get that deep it just like they did i didn't realize it either i was like sitting there like a pretty good place right there yeah i didn't realize it either i was like when i first saw the bait i was like like yeah one of the first prototypes one of the ones that you know the ones i had the hand done once i've done i sent to them and then their tank testing they called it an eight-footer really i like you sure you want to only call it six i said yeah let's call it 60. he's like it's gonna guarantee that's it that's right yeah that's what i like about like a dt it says dt6 you're going to get six maybe one seven or eight yeah you know on a six footer you know but yeah but for a lot of guys you know that they might like cast as far as we do and so they say well the bait doesn't run that deep no it will but did you see him with oliver though i gotta crank this crankbait in here oh chub these fish out here pretty they are they're really pretty that's a that's a pretty pretty sprung one yep he ain't quite as fat as yours two right oh i'm gonna put that one in the wild yeah it's not bad they're pretty funky [ __ ] yep two nine mine barely big enough 110 110 i gotta make sure and a 110. you got it yep one so two nine have to do math that's bad alright no hit that grass what was he saying oh something oh three yeah but for some reason we're good to go yeah at least it should get it'll get pretty good audio on this thing i'm wearing too yeah i figure that too yeah all right we're gonna have to just fish some little [Music] [Laughter] yeah that don't hurt yeah yeah there's not a ton there did you get our fish added in there yeah okay i think we're just gonna have to keep jumping where that put us at it four maybe i think that's i think that would be right yeah that's like 19 just over a quarter so it would be 19 4 or 19 5 somewhere in so there two nine and a one ten would be four three four three back to four fourteen yeah but it says it's 1930 on that scale right like it keeps a hundred so like a fish that's so actually like we have is that exactly that's right we actually got more time yeah yeah yeah it keeps a you know fish that weighs 157 it's still gonna be a 1 8. you lose that 07. did you see that lasso did you i didn't see you oh look at that right when you right when you caught him that's close to him behind you that i got a straggler soccers it might be a crawdad or a bleached out bluegill or i mean it ain't messed up looking shad yeah i put it back on the full because where i was kind of throwing off the bike yeah hit uh if you want to hit menu it mean you can go down and put it on the front i like it or just hit the plus button just that kind of feels that even helps too and you still get the full circle but uh looks a little more stringy what's the water temp out here you know probably 54 or so we liking that green and white hue yeah yo that's about anybody that's got the line tie in the body like that seems like it happens a little more you know a little more frequently yeah that kind of changes changes him up a bit yeah got some slime on oh my god big holy big small mouth yes good job dude look at that thing show that tank choked it oh my gosh damn that's a good one that's a freaking stone i'm going to keep fishing don't get to that that's too deep how big nice i got us in a mess huh i got a mess okay yeah thank god damn that was cool did they not have one did they not have another one yet no did you text it let's try this a little i'll text it they caught another five pounder yeah this looks pretty a little current that's man i hope i catch three or four 19 pounds in an hour did you text it yeah yeah i bet it'd be cool to see just what you see happen down there yeah you know what i mean you see that see that bait working in it and then see a whole boat in it that's what that's my buddy that's what he talks about it's like dude you'll see them blow holes in the bait nuts they must have caught another five six pounder it sent me some videos like a couple years ago with that it was wild have you ever had any times where you just turn it off right yeah yeah needed that one god they're on some stuff like they're on the best spot yeah okay that's seven six there's too much rod up here tight that's the cast oh come off yeah yeah i can't believe i had a bottle on this one just a little bit of current moving through here having a time with these twigs i got it we're not fishing the most user-friendly stuff like fishing friendly stuff kicks out right there overhangs rocks stuff to get stuck on yeah if you're just off you're gonna hook something let's see if we've had any other score tracker updates yep they're up to five seven yeah i haven't made a good castle yep they're 5'7 yeah i must have to i mean it was just a it's just a one update 19-7 decent little lead but so this next this next one will be we started fishing what 320 so 420 is that right yeah junk out here floating and that that's everything about that like her a little rock jumping out like that like if i can a little drink slide unless i just don't want to be in that current at all i mean which i mean we're trying to get ready yeah yeah it's not every wave of fish that's already back in that bays and fish were to start spawning yeah they'd still be fish staging in the middle middle april you know they'll still be fish today this fish is spawning yeah a lot of them not just the stragglers yeah i'm not trying to like cherry yeah he called a 10 pounder on the bed right there by the campground yeah there's a lot of guys called fish out that i mean we're spawning fish but you know they just didn't they were just fishing yeah yeah that's just yeah yeah those guys just fishing and catching them shall we didn't even know it i can tell one major difference between us so far wheels you light your trolling motor the wrong way that stuff is just nice single biggest difference yeah but it's got to be an accurate cast or you're not in it like it's got to be a tight car so you're not going to hit the bottom oh [Music] we're going left here right left ah come on yeah the cast yeah for sure thinking about jumping off too just thinking about it [Music] yeah and then i broke it you know that was pretty freaking cool yeah well in that that deal with fishing chicken like it was a bass fest what's that that's the one that you want one that hank got that 10 in yeah and uh and i'll catch him well they uh really did that second chance part of it you remember that were they those guys down here yeah up there at the mouth of one of those creeks of the river things like chickamauga creek or something okay [Laughter] a lot 12 and a half a whole lot different than that yeah it's got a little whip comes out on it don't to the bottom right there yeah i just had to keep it on it's back here keep them out of there yeah if i was gonna pull up there sometimes they want to be on that out of it oh yeah there's a certain level where it just it does it just pushes them off there's no doubt the bait gets where they're like yeah better float out there a lot of times if you don't wedge it too bad it'll back yes yeah yeah just right josh yeah i mean that's the thing is like rip raps is always a good a good thing to fish just to bring the pre-spawn spring yeah post-spawn i mean oh yeah big time the crawdads get there a lot of times there's transition places like bridges causeways and people want to they want to dumb it down be like oh they're just fishing bridges no there's a lot to it they ain't just they just throw your bait out there and reel it back along the along the rocks one tip you feel like you see day in and day out like as far as like a crankbait fisherman i mean i would consider you to be one of the best you know correct shallow water crank the deep deep deep water crankers in our game like you feel like one thing that a lot of anglers miss on crankbait fishing what would you say speed speed absolutely speed um yeah and that and how much you can use speed to uh to help you no doubt i mean there's there's times when i'll go i mean not change colors but you know just speed up speeding up your retrieve and you i mean i know you've seen it too but a lot of people may have heard this but they've not you know not really experienced this fishing line um but uh i'm gonna go from like getting bites missing fish dude speed it up and just start reeling them in you know what i mean i definitely seen it a lot offshore oh yeah big time yeah yeah i definitely see that fun i think the other thing i feel like some guy mess up on is i see i see you do this a lot like you're slowing and feeling your crankbait yeah like that's a huge deal yeah feeling your crankbait like as it sort of goes over places especially hanging stuff yeah you know speed it's just like you sort of get it especially like this right here yes you're on hard stuff feeling that bait sort of crawl over this rock stopping him every once in a while especially the pre-spawn cold water deal that's the water with the i do that so much with a shad wrap you know i mean a shad wrap that i'm fishing fishing slow like that and then i mean just pull you pull it along the bottom and pull it along the bottom and then pull it and go boom and it's but you're still worth it over a jerk bait in the same situation people say well you're pausing the crank bait why don't you just throw a jerk bait it's still a reaction bite even i mean dude i've called them i called him a lotus winner at douglas 40 41 degrees on the shad wrap and you wouldn't catch him on a jerkbait because it is still a reaction bite not that a jerkbait ain't but yeah it's completely different yeah completely different presentation where that fades on the bottom and it's just right off the stuff yeah yeah but that's your favorite shad wrap number five not six really is is it yeah yeah i i mean a five is like it'll always hold a special place but dude that six it just casts so good it gets just a hair deeper i don't know man i really really like that six guys six is pretty much yeah yeah six is dynamite talking about speed me and me and parker were fishing at douglas my boy and uh back in like june last year and we catch them offshore and not they weren't terribly deep we were able to catch them on a 10 you know so it's not near as hard for him to reel as a 16 would be and uh but i mean i mean there's 100 on this place and i'm like dude you gotta reel it faster you gotta really faster you gotta and it he'd catch one like every three or four throws he'd get bit nearly every cast he'd catch whatever one swat and i throw in there and i'm not they're just just burning i mean it's kind of it's a clean place there was no cut you know you didn't have to fish it through anything and man you could it was all about the speed you know [Laughter] yeah you can you can bring a bait back pretty quick stand on that button spot pick up a rod i threw it out there and i was like man i just keep on getting bit on this one right real it was a 6-3 he didn't even know it i didn't even know it was realized that's funny eyes like everything has same pound line same rod same action everything you know except for this little faster reel and you're still turning at the same speed it just was picking up a little more line that's funny literally all the big ones i caught on that right he was like i had three plugs like they were was the one huh yeah that is funny that's i i thought all cranking i i used to be that way i would throw my deep stuff on a 5-4 up until like maybe two or three years ago and i just i just quit switching my reels out i just i crank with a six eight all the time six eight all the time all the time that's that's the only speed i use for cranking whether i mean whether that's a square bill or a dt20 in between and then a five yeah that's i mean in our in our bass pro rails at six eight it goes from five four to six eight yeah so that's you know that's the speeds i got to choose from so yeah okay yeah yeah but it's i mean it it worry down you know i mean yeah it is that's uh even like a 16 boy you start feeling it towards the end of the day but um but yeah that's that's what uh that's what's going on i mean there's something there's some there's some air let me tell you this thing yeah like they're it's like they're out i feel like they're out deeper let's grab this deeper puddle almost feel like they're sitting out a little bit or something oh that spot there yeah i'm software you know a point like i ain't count nothing yet undergo clear i set that alarm for 420 but uh my phone's actually on central so i think it's uh it would be late yeah yeah yeah but 20 yeah 24 23 yeah have we scored yet this period we've not have we probably yeah that was this period yeah i was thinking that was you caught that big one at the end then we yeah as soon as it started [Laughter] and the rip wrap ain't done i ain't done much no come on smallies let's another crush need water is there any more anymore eelgrass up in here at all it's like a flat i mean get him on the bike that much what's that that's a giant yeah i can't i mean you would have been on that one's got plenty of color to catch one on some rip rap that's for sure and then one more thing and that's it yeah it's that river that river water is a little cooler ain't it yeah yeah that's for sure just rolling down through there feel good about from here to that little point up there yeah it's kind of like a little watch out here [Music] it's just out of the car in a little bit yeah it should should be out of the current more up there yeah that just don't have to unscrap yours yeah don't have to do you gotta play the game too i'll stick with that one you feeling dq later this week yeah like thursday friday okay oh friday yes looks good what is it right here i crank the bottom of the rocks too much yeah and he just can't start catching them really hey i mean we're both on the same bait i'm doing a little bit different one like a different [ __ ] different fashion i grab it i shake it he's got a rattle one knocked a rattle on it i swapped for one knocked her out he never kisses another one really just like that that water being a little dirty from it being that dirty i think it just tracked better yeah that's and it's funny because i mean i'm defending everything i mean whether it's a jig i'm i'm anti-rattle and like [Music] myself i mean i did one when we uh the last elite we fished on dardanelle uh yeah you remember how muddy the main river was super muddy but there's a good shad spawn going on so i it was like the third day maybe i'd been fishing in piney and uh he's a little cleaner in there i mean i'm running up late and i keep seeing these birds keep seeing these birds and then i see a green tree so i'm like okay i gotta wheel it over and there's like seven birds in this one tree so i wheel it in there and dude i mean it is cool cool cool and just shad just going everywhere dude i swim jig it i chatter baited i spinnerbait it i hear that stick and i'd hit him in the head with anything nothing there you go we gotta loosen it up never get a bite so i actually sat down i took my white swim jig because they wouldn't buy the chatter bait you know i mean if it's super muddy you're like well they bought spinner baits everybody's they'll buy a chatterbait vibration right so i put i take my white jig i take the chunk i put like three glass rattles in it i caught four out of that tree no joke yep i mean like dude on my anti-rattle but i in mighty waters it works it was the same thing it was really muddy yeah i mean you can see yeah you know i remember yeah but i i did i was like i mean i could see them you know and they're feeding and i'm i'm hitting them on the head there's something and i was what i i sit down and put rattles in and i didn't change anything about the jig oh then i put rattles in it and then caught four out of that one tree and went and then just went up the bank in every patch of grass every punch of water willow i'd catch a fish out of yeah with a rattle well like three rattles yeah it was funny but in that extreme we're not talking like off color we're talking extreme stream yeah like a lot of people wouldn't even stop there you can't catch bass in this [Music] um yeah it was it was kind of eye opener and i used to i mean at home fishing the buddy i grew up fishing with a lot and he was really good fisherman he would flip a tube a lot even really muddy water but he'd always use a rattle and i mean i've caught a i've caught a lot of bass with a uh there's something there is something about it yeah with a rattle in the tube still roller yeah we got this this angle right here too okay ain't much of a ripple but it's breaking the surface you know crappie swimming [Music] uh around but the last gunners classic i fished i got the one that randy won man cranking rip rap was my my deal on that one too i had a couple places the first two days i caught them on rip rap but the uh the last day i caught them on on the river on the river water was real stained or it was like really cold and warmed up yeah but the river was still like 48 on the last day i caught an eight pounder on a six like at 1 30 or 2 o'clock or something my fifth fish i had 20. no i just didn't have any other real real good ones [Music] i'll tell you what's so interesting is like how like when you go up in size and line how a rod can get too heavy yeah it's like the perfect rod yeah when you throw 20 it's like whoa this is it's super stiff it's like how much of that you don't realize how much stretch you have with a floor garbage when you go that smaller size yeah and yeah it can yeah it does it really takes the takes a lot of stretch out of it and that heavier stuff broadcasting 7 16. real good i use a seven and a seven six pretty much i mean i use a seven so i have a seven six my series yeah and i have this one so basically i have those two just for this one's more for square bills flat dude look how dark that fish is yeah [Laughter] they're right there uh-huh we've cranked a lot of rocks i was i was really shocked and we had to start patting them okay yeah that was like a i mean that fish was it yeah in the grass this is going to be the spot where we yeah [Music] i know that's another big thing about team tournaments that's right you just work together like otter well you're doing 12. yeah with and with the spin strips yeah and you were and then you were tight yeah that dude was he's a person wasn't he was up there looking for a crawdad he said i think i'll eat that that looks pretty dang good yo proud on that corner i mean that's when you fish fish a bridge dude he's been out a little bit yeah yeah but just a single like that he's liable to be in there tight yo i've also seen like surf days like in clear water where like this color will catch oh yeah like it's just like especially on cloudy days yeah like five for the visibility a little bit of wind yeah i've caught them good on table rock yeah like table rock i've caught i've smoked them on that and where it's clean you know [Music] what's up yeah yeah i'm glad you paid attention to that because yeah that didn't count yeah no i forgot about that again something in the towers in there well i've been running over now there's a lot more to that brush pile so good thing even i don't know how much water's on that rip rap but just that shallow man i've absolutely busted them on shallow you know usually when it's muddy but man i've caught them on three foot deep rip rap you know in the spring oh yeah yeah it's going to get chained up over there on teleco there's some real shallow rip raps like that that man when it gets muddy they can yeah i'm not being too too scared do you know they got us you know they swim around on it when the water's clear i mean why wouldn't i it's going to be just as warm you know but dang you can't get them to bite yeah yeah you can forget about that that stuck got him i had one did you really yeah i'll put a little stick i think it was a real small one yeah yeah we're both hey that's the team we're in this together he did well to survive that [Music] hey when you said it was blown out of here the other day this was probably about the first day it cleaned up was probably good right in here that's nice that's seven foot that's that's deeper than i thought it'd have been right in this corner just run up there and see what it looks like oh pulled it off that one rock and then it run under another one there we go pulled at least one and got on another one man if you had some good wind hitting this right here yeah yeah definitely definitely changed yeah hopefully they haven't got those right-hand side ones that's that's shocking to me as much real prep as we've cranked and we've had one bite this is crazy this fish just want to be in the grass that much no they are where they are no five seconds the end of the second period ain't it well i almost got to where there's like a little ditch right here yeah see what they got to say make sure they aren't trying to think sandbags yeah not letting us know what they really called you like get way up get close or get ahead of something oh score tracker update 92 pounds started fired up school out there yo what about it buddy oh we're getting booked [Music] [Laughter] you're just taking it easy on this last period hey that's like we actually cranked rip crab for the last probably like two miles yeah i caught one caught one bite and he was rna in willow stalks he was actually probably sleeping up underneath the right yes yeah he looked like he was under a man i probably could have punched him out of it he was one of those you know what i'm saying oh man yeah i'm gonna make some adjustments like we gotta you gotta turn it up i know you're here we go i already know you boys ain't gonna you're bringing it you're bringing that last period i already know you're right we are yeah [Laughter] all right yeah i'm gonna get this day i'm gonna i'm gonna sharpen these hooks on this green gear trust me ugly we took the wind out ourselves so you can tell [Music] but you know what's crazy like one bite in that situation right there you're like in the right hand oh yeah you win yeah that's how it is that's the way it is it don't take much right i'm proud of proud of that little creation that is freaking awesome dude yeah thank you hotter dang dang thanks for making a song who can go ahead and reel one in yeah i'm waiting on you to get us a top water so we'll have we'll have some i know that's the top part of it ain't straight reeling suckers in yeah [Music] oh yeah [Music] and letting it all out of there too [Music] freaking your 360 is pretty straight yeah that's pretty straight i was trying to try to make sure but it's pretty that's pretty good oh he's got a minute there we go yeah you gotta gotta dial back in so let's see let's get let's do a score tracker update we're gonna throw my phone final period five seven to twenty one five that i mean here's the thing we caught 14 that first period we caught we caught a couple blasts up here but three you caught you caught a couple i caught one i snared one you woke them up and i caught one that's all that's all about teamwork i've retied this one seven times yeah it's five minute break right five minutes yeah i think it's run down lined out and uh i don't know if it's worth doing another pass oh that's right 525 yeah yeah on the inside of that but i just i don't know i don't think so i think we've got to go down and fish some of the mouths of those little cuts oh fishing line i thought i had a little tiny little green right there i'll step on that in a minute get a rookie rusty hook in my foot [Music] oh [Music] [Music] right you know there's a time when that water's running out left that they you'd sit right there and catch 20. you know gotta be get a good warm rain yep that bounce off that rock right there water be up about a foot to be loaded a little stop i've caught a lot of sticks that feel like a bass i'm cranking oh yeah absolutely plenty of sticks yes tree was so funny tree pounders the real story same dude that that does the green pull it crankbait good the green the green yeah okay so he cranks the spinner on okay like all the all the time spinning up all the time no [Music] that's always good for the audio right there phenomenal the uh so we go out we have to go crankbait we call back and we throw a lot a lot called a weenie yeah small okay cranky and we're throwing this weenie little crankbait up on his rock he hooks his fish oh we got his neck oh yeah ten foot handle comes up it's hooked to nintendo's bluegill on the back no way yeah put the tennis ball in the back so then fish yep it just loaded up dude i said it was yeah that's the fish if it's a bastard it's a bigot i don't know that it's a bass i don't think it was a bad there's no way no look look there's the last one right yeah okay it's okay it's all good look at the scale that thing's biggest right there yeah that's not a bias nope it just and it didn't feel like one that's why i was like ah it just got heavy and then i just smooshed and started swimming back to the store okay so back to the story he's he's like he hits bluegill gets to get the net you're kidding me or maybe get yeah out on bluegill and uh so next fish she goes post is like any good no jump six and a half hour no it's protection right out here slaying out this way yeah you see that interesting that was a big fish but it was not fast no and i'm glad it came off [Music] some of them feel really good too they do come over one and you're like yeah yep you gotta pull back on him that maybe nope it's always like this oh yeah way out there then it messes up the whole thing it's a fishing line either last thrill oh yeah take me too soon i'm just ticking rocks that whole way back we picked up some garbage out of the lake anyway see if you're if you're good you know you take care of stuff you take get some trash out of late fish will pay back for it i appreciate it what is it oh well i just don't pick it [Laughter] that's my liking gill pickers dill pickle flavor crankbait need to make a crawdad color like that still bigger put some orange on it rotten dill pickle got some green and some brown call it rotten dill pickle that's pretty sweet those are good yeah those are like a plastic oh [Music] where's the next slight little opening get a little breeze wheels okay [Music] ah all right yep the water's dirtier it definitely is definitely is yep got him still rolling ah damn it so there's a small mouth and hit yes yeah yeah wow okay yeah i'm just i'm comfortable with it you know i mean i've fished with a 6-8 so much yeah it's it's like it's like that with anything i mean you could crank on 83 if you got a feel for it [Music] yeah yeah [Music] yeah yeah yeah eight three three eight three i mean there's a line in there not for chatterbait yeah stuff i'm still reeling but we're reading nikki jackson stuff so many of those bites you get on there should we go down this rip rap or sprinter bait they a lot of them are so shall they come at you so fast that's a six eights like ain't quite enough okay so i know edwin does that like he'll crank cold water he always cranks with the five or five cleaning out the fish the bass population yeah that was that was kind of where i what i used to do right i just was just trying to be good i just got used to the feel of the sticks all the time i just know what the bait sure does feel good out there [Music] oh come on this can't continue that's where this place is more like gunners it's more grass bars on the river hard spots on the river like a chick you'd be fishing hard stuff still ain't no grass ain't no grass out there to fish right now that's a cop like in the bays and stuff as it started does it show up at all this time of year still ain't it's still clean if we get eelgrass yeah this got weird didn't it perfect amount of carnia none at all now one of the updates pretty quiet pretty quiet on the scoreboard yeah you never know all right guys you know one thing real quick here that's a lot colder down there we're all cranking an og slim but uh if you guys enjoyed this content you are enjoying this content do me a favor in the description of this video we have all the guys that are fishing this event carl ott brandon all have a youtube channel so click on their channel subscribe to their channel they have some great content just want to give a big shout out to all those guys the box of og slims right here and so basically the big color that is caught almost all my fish is this color right here we have it up on the screen it's the green gizzard um and then the guys like brandon and carl they're actually up the river a little bit more which really is dirtier water that's coming out of chickamauga had a lot of rain earlier in the week which ultimately made it to where a lot of those fish up there they had a lot of currents those fish were getting those eddies and stuff and we were fishing further down the lake where a lot of the fish had grass flats rip rat banks and that was sort of the deal we were on so just giving you guys a little bit of understanding like what sort of what's going on um water was that mid you know load of up upper mid 50s you know 50 degrees to about 55 i mean that's what we're doing so back to the back to the to the goods [Music] the hard bomb or that grass was there grass a lot of it yeah you got to be a fish in that i mean three or four uh yeah this is just the grass just got down in it really good uh huh yeah the inside corner of us that's the stuff right there that should have been should have snapped out that and went the other way fish oh yeah what they wanted what's it gonna be oh are you gonna do it i threw it in there snap snap snap [Music] when i got it in the tail of the bait was still sticking out of his throat and the the front hook was like back in his in his tongue almost i mean had the bait sucked in headphones crappie it says 3.43 that's a lot of not uh yeah if you could if you knew you were about to make them buy oh guaranteed yeah when they committed yeah you catch more on the deeper the shallow loco oh one sixth i had a couple places it was like out eight seven eight nine foot but most of those fishing was crappie four or five you know yeah so it was it was mostly awkward yeah yeah yeah and that's what my better stuff was yeah we just got to keep moving on these i think we can we can find one that hasn't stacked there was a room down the bank oriented i think so yeah on this same side yeah that'll fit yeah a little that's where they're at and now i just need the size it's closed for one hour it shouldn't be that hard yeah what are they doing fishing tournament major the pro fast we fished that already didn't we [Music] yeah this looks perfect we know there's a couple swimming around right up here yeah i got a bomb might be some around yeah this is like this time of year on this body of water like this you could just put your troll motor down in here and just fish yeah you know i mean that's there's not you know that's the only thing i see this would be absolutely yeah up the river smallmouth yeah we got a large amount down there's a here scattered out in between yeah so hmm bait out there too it looks like a little water bait surprising not to get bit there oh i just rattled it around i mean just uh yeah it was it ain't a little looks pretty good yeah that's what they without as you can see i mean it's you could tell how much of a difference yeah just how deep how things really get that's what that's what makes it so nice yeah that stuff that we were like well i just kind of confidence in my head yeah good or you do something like that this gives me more confidence that you know whether that really makes a difference or not you see that it does all through here it's the water temp in the same yeah and you add those couple little strips boy really get it out there [Music] is that one we've got till oh yeah you can air it out then yeah yeah i think 30 seconds i think so 16 to be pretty heavy yeah man they did some trying to stay off mm-hmm yeah get him give him some room oh looks like it was like [Music] oh yeah dude come on baby oh he's fresh yeah baby yes nice that would stick if like please be along here we've hooked so much fishing line i'm like it feels like fishing how big oh yeah i thought he was bigger than that put him in the well them scattered out yeah and that's the way they wanted that morning but they were they were scattered out you couldn't you couldn't get by culture actually like an hour before i did and didn't get by went through there with a jerkbait and huff huh that was fun a little while later that winter got to kick in a little bit we both look we're both looking we don't really know like i don't know i've walked too much fishing [Laughter] that was the evening hours i mean that was not like that was the street yeah dad we would have been in this morning it was like we just you got a really good start on that shad spawn and uh if it was like that was the thing yeah yeah yeah but that was i mean the first period was always my worst one when it on the evening yeah but the through that third period i would just be just whining man she choked it yeah it was gone yeah that third period ever should be catching like one at the mouth one in the pocket roll to the next one or one or two you know 30 minutes or so a lot of clumps out here a little shallower ain't it i want to get a cast up on the inside of that dock but i'll get hung on that cable let's all win there you go pretty good little clump right over there yeah should have been a couple ways i just want to get a couple get up to 15 and just give them a bit of a scare for all those years back home like right now we're inside covered yeah look at that that's crazy you know that typically is about the best the best zone it's been about you know four to eight foot has been back today it's the high spot or a low quality i mean movements unless it's good in general yeah it's really about more if there's too much grass back to the good one that's where bass would like women whatever you've got an abundance of is not what you need yeah it needs to be the more subtle more irregular if there's a lot of anything it can't be good definitely yeah yeah they just stopped being in the current didn't they sorry babe if you're watching this they wanted to get back in the staff that should be a fish like both them calves just there should be a fish is that grass in front of us or is that like cardboard yeah oh it's got a seam off the corner too okay shoot over and then look for another one of these did this show up on the humminbird yeah last little bit i mean oh we do have an update they're up to nine six yeah let's go we gotta get ourselves my arms are all yeah you dug for it it's a double hander grip gorilla grip yeah you don't have to hold on with a rod yeah i'm good stuff like that it's worth the cost is that one of the bigger or biggest fish ever on a pro-bass shootout yeah i think it is yeah i don't think i think we're going to have to default to another house yeah the first pass ever on the pro bus shootout i forgot about that yeah there's a 6-4 6-12 yeah yeah that was a big one and i wonder i still wonder if i wasn't a fish i caught with parker like a week before that 60 foot up the bank that weighed 6 14 when i caught i mean the fish i caught with him yeah yeah it's got like a big arm that comes out yeah there he is wheels locked it up son locked it up yeah plenty big enough to score feels good to finally get a bite again help the team out a little bit it's been a minute for for o.g slim 113. all right let's see 113. that felt good is in that grass no 23-2 it was so hard i sent 22 too then i sent back sorry 23 too yeah 21. no wait no that's not it's like a slow death it was two pounds so if it was 21 we added almost two so yeah [Music] yeah make sure i'm still thinking through hey a lot of bassiness buddy biggest out of the current right now that's another good yeah that's that's to me why pre-spawn i mean pre-spawn's always been my favorite time of year two fish and it typically is when i usually do here really good i think it's because it makes sense it's like you know you go to the biggest creek on the lake and start fishing and you're going to run into them somewhere they're heading up their head you know you know where their destination is it's like they're somewhere between a and b that was one wasn't it rod loaded up where was that big culvert pipe that we both like looked at each other and were like oh is that a little ways back oh yeah oh damn it that was like smallmouth dude it lacked it hit it twice super short sharp quack [Music] it's a bit of me i didn't catch that last one it was definitely me letting the team down rattle i don't know if one hit it or just fouled on its own but my bait got failed yeah that might have i never failed it but my bait was just all of a sudden foul good to know well there was you can't tell me this little large mouth yeah uh there's fish in it too look at him on 360. must be a culvert under there oh yeah it is yeah yeah keep getting tapped yeah it's the deep breath of running out of time we'd like them at the same time if possible yeah so i pulled some up on that last cast might have some more now [Music] yeah a lot more high drill up here that's fine big thing we're doing where most of our fish have come from it's been in grass and we've caught just a fish or two out of hydrilla i mean that's all that's left of it out of the hydrilla but most of them being actually an eelgrass um but both are good shallow side of that island anytime you've got a mixture like that that's always always a good thing it could be just a spot where there's a bunch of spotted bass and smaller ones and we can yeah not on a crankbait but a little swimmer yeah yeah just today they might be up let's make sure it's still rolling us good that's a cold that's a little feel on that is your mic on a uh i'm gonna deal with that camera is it on just an independent thing yeah okay it's got a wireless yeah caught them right on that doesn't extend out that far yeah that little marina another little one yeah yeah that hydrilla looks really good yeah hmm the bait really pulls through that stuff pretty good i mean it's not like this is a real it's pretty thick yeah it's not like it's the best cranking grass no but but it's like not like i meant yeah that's i mean like this this grass ain't even the best four crank you know like it's not good crispy easy stuff to clean off your bait yeah but it's still it still comes through it pretty pretty fair so yeah i'm on bottom now good watercolor come on this spot could easily do it for us it should be just bunched up right there that's perfect like gravely bottom right there there's the bathroom i can get him in here yes kind of twisted off that hard stuffed in there that he was yep he was on the rock hey i'm just glad you got me back in around some bass again get me around some bass wheels two five two five two five let's see how bad my math can be this time nice little chunker pretty pretty old bass let's see that's the two five on here so 23 two plus two five a twenty five [Music] that's a 525. i think it's catching anything there you go just idiom in the background yeah it's 25. okay cheers squad don't catch one of them biggins like what you call oh yeah a good place to do it right there's pretty good stuff yeah yeah that drain there is that marina uh it's barely that little that marina yeah definitely they just went to 25 7. animals i mean like that was the first thing i told it hip-hop works yeah i mean that was the first i can't touch was locked up there's a marina i think there's a rip-rap wall on the inside of that marina too i'll see ya that yeah that was mine from earlier that was when i set the wrong one earlier we got five more minutes yeah i was like dang i missed it yo what the heck that's awesome oh dang dude i loaded up on him and it just popped off that was a good buy oh it's a good buy that's what happened to that one right there i cranked down it was like locked up yeah i mean i got the rod boat up and then it i felt it pop three [Music] oh [Music] oh oh damn it felt like a fish come on fish lock it up again we can't want to miss two yeah three three three yeah [Music] small mouth come up behind something got a little [Music] mushy uh mm-hmm is it is that a road bait or is it natural rock okay yeah yeah is all that looks i can't tell if it's concrete but it's actually just natural rock bring it grass hey 45 seconds i feel good about our chances i think yeah we know we still like to catch one more a lot stressed out as dustin was no big deal no not at all that's so awesome someone just rattled it right there yeah i felt so good awesome how did that inside riprap not just produce something for us really happy for him he's got two of the catchiest sayings in bass fishing they ain't gonna catch themselves and i just love bass fishing [Laughter] well yeah i think it went okay will i think i think we ain't checked it in the last minute i think i think we're gonna be with the checks yeah it'll make sure hold up here and wait on our boys looks like it's still okay [Laughter] that was fun buddy that was fun yeah plugging them up that's it that's what it was man you caught him on roop here i did catch them on roadblocks yeah i caught one on dart brown crawl yeah every one i caught was on mine yeah what the little modification you did i dude i think that made a big difference today getting down there a little bit more yeah getting it down there because we need to have a bonus slide session right at the end and each one counts for like 10 pounds yeah you know probably that probably that eight yeah probably four or six to eight yeah the majority of our bites yeah yeah absolutely it was just like let's just make some rules like either they keep them really bringing it yeah or just like you know we slow it down and just sort of play with it a little bit and lock up so yeah that was really what it was all about here we saw oh that was bad you guys had the game plan man if we just had like eight hour day you you all had to come back we were starting to struggle we're all the way in chattanooga y'all getting some sushi y'all slide over there by the day there's a little spot called uh aaliyah you need to slide bye this is a good little italian spotted there while you're up that way yeah you guys want us to bring you some biscuits on the way are you that far up there oh yeah we're right next to the center shut up you are not a slur literally idling past the southern belle right now literally hey it's like he just loves i'll tell you one thing it's like he's not afraid of is making a run yeah he's not afraid of making a run no one can ever say that about you yeah in a three-hour derby [Laughter] 35 miles up there yeah [Laughter] oh [Applause] oh it wasn't a good plan [Laughter] that's awesome all right we'll see you boys get back you you're gonna catch a couple more [Music] [Music] [Music] all right guys we are back finished up the pro bash shootout had an awesome time and you boys caught some name biggins though y'all caught some naked vegans yeah i'll tell
