Thanks Johnny . You are no dought the best bass teacher I have ever seen ..wish my forgetter didn’t work so good .

One of my favorite “Fish the Moment “ videos!

Great info Jonny! Thanks for the great info you continuously put out on your channel.

As always, excellent content and visual aids. Thanks Jonny

Excellent. Thanks Jonny

Thanks Jonny, excellent video! I really appreciate how you cover every possible scenario so well. My closest home lake is a lowland res with very dirty water and I could never figure out where to look in cold winter water. You covered it beautifully as always. Thanks again and keep the vids coming. FYI: Absolutely loved the Fishing “Jeopardy” on the live stream. I had a great time(and scored a decent 300 even). You and Randy are still my favorite channels.

Since I started watching you . I have learned a lot . Since I am a amateur bass fisherman I am very thankful for your value information you put out

Awesome job Johnny

Wow I’m impressed with your breakdowns

Great video, always learning!

Amazing information

Need more of these types of videos! Awesome!

Thank you for the video brother

Great video man! Very informative.

Thank you Jonny for another exceptional instructional video. I’ve learned so much from you. You are truly the bass professor!

Great info!

Excellent video!!!

Another good video thanks

I'm shocked that you don't have 500k subscribers by now! I've watched ALL of the big bass fishing channels and yours is on another level! Keep it up brother!

Thanks for the info man!! Great content!

Thanks for the great advice.

Very great tips thank you

Great stuff

Details galore! Thanks!

Excellent video here, Very helpful. Awesome work.

Your garage setup goes hard 🔥

Another great video! Loved all the details. And love the magic exposure of the A-Rig at the end. I love the A-Rig, I say throw it, and I hope/wish you would do more A-Rig videos!

Thanks Jonny. I’ve been out there fishing a few times this winter mostly jerk bait fishing and having some success. Best so far was a 19 incher on a rock crawler. 47 degree water in two feet on shoreline cover! Guess they can move shallow almost any time. Your info helps me alot

That's something I figured out this year. Any moderately warm day after a few cold days pushes bass shallow, even 2 feet or less

Thanks for the video, and tips I am a electronics fisherman as you are, and consider myself pretty salty catching deep fish. I use your jigs great product. I have just put an order in on the vision 110 + jerkbaits this is a technique I want to get better at thanks for all the great videos you my friend have put a lot of money in my wallet sir 👍🏻

Great video

Thanks Jonny for all you do My fishing has improved from watching your vid's

Thanks for giving up the juice like always

Hey Jonny, I really appreciate your video’s. I’ve been fishing for 40 years( catfishing, fly fishing, occasional bass fishing) however, I’ve just jumped in the rabbit hole of real bass fishing. There’s more to it than I could of imagined. This is my first winter, and I’m struggling. By far my hardest struggle, are you still doing on the water lessons? I would really appreciate your time!! I absolutely love fishing and see this as a challenge

Thank you Jonny would love a video on how to identify creek channels using a contour map. thanks again great info .

More 🔥🔥

Got my first boat last March and having my first full season of fishing. November and December were phenomenal on the smallmouth front biggest bags of the year. January so far 4 trips 1 bass 🤦‍♂️

Try downsizing the plastics on the Arigs. You'll get more bites with 3" swimbaits than with 5" swimbaits . We catch 25-35 lb rockfish on 3-4" swimbaits on our Arigs

Great Info. Love jerk bait fishing

My kid fishes for the middle school league, and everybody seems to be getting whooped this season. I’m going to get on google earth and try to locate some of the places you suggested and get him out there. Thank you.

In Randy’s videos he preaches spinning rods and six pound line with the jerk bait. Can you give the juice on why you use bait caster on your set up and what line size. Now I have two bait casters and two spinning rods rigged up and switch back and forth between the two. I will have to admit that spinning reels have given me a lot of misery over the years regardless of how the line was spooled on. They have turned a lot of good days on the water into bad days.🤣

I like your stuff even though I target mostly shallow bass and you concentrate on offshore techniques. Post spawn I will fish deeper water and your content has been helpful for the limited time I spend doing that. Your videos are really well done and your techniques are well presented which is unique on KZread. What I find somewhat amusing is how you teamed up with Randy. You use your electronics alot and he, like me, is somewhat averse to relying on them, especially FFS 😉 I really enjoy both your channels I just find you two an unlikely partnership. Just an observation I thought you might comment on. Not a criticism

Great video!!!! Are you still going to do the Crankbait, Jig and jerkbaits only challenge for the entire year?

Wish someone would cover natural lakes in this detail since that’s all I fish

Jonny, thanks for the detail. I live in San Diego County and fish lakes that are typically man-made reservoirs with steep banks to create more water storage areas. A little confused on the distinction between "highland" vs. "lowland" reservoirs. What distinguishes one from another? Altitude, geography, average depth, etc. Thanks.

Good info but this information has been known for over 75 years , thanks to Mr. Buck Perry !!!!!!

Good stuff Jonny! I know you have to limit the number of baits to use for the list could go on and on. Lol. I would assume in those ditches, the underspin and blade baits are not too far behind. :-)

Yeah it was hard narrowing the baits down to a few for each area. Underspins, blade baits, jigging spoons, Damiki Rigs… the list goes on and on. The baits I mentioned in the video are the ones I’ve caught the most fish on over the years, but I have a lot of other baits tied on for specific situations. I’ll share more baits in future Catch15 prep videos.

What about blade baits? Caught a couple of giants before ice on an underwater straight drop-off from 15ft to 30ft

I was hoping there was going to be a Spy Bait in this bait list. I’m getting setup for a tourney on a highland reservoir, and all the baits you’ve listed all make sense, but I also feel Spy Baits are one of the most underutilized baits. Anyways, love the channel, definitely one of my go to’s for getting great fishing info. Keep it up man. Tight lines 🇺🇸🎣🤙🏽

A spybait will definitely work as well. I just wanted to keep it simple and give a few key baits in each scenario. If I went through every winter bait out there, the video would be an hour long! Haha

alwayz_be_culling spybaits are more of a spotted and small mouth lure in my experience and those of my buddies that are professionals

quick question if you have a minute: on your first example of flat spot/secondary point/highland reservoir... when you went to the low water view, to show the angle/slope of the areas... the steeper areas has chunk rock. the flatter spots looked more featureless/coverless/clay. are there compounding factors that involve rock/chunk vs just flats at this time of year? most stuff I run across talks about finding transitions between chunk, pea gravel or rock/clay... can you maybe weigh in on this?

What is your thoughts on the rip stop have 3 one shallow and 2 deep? Any advice would be appreciated

Do pvc fish attractors show up on side imaging? Like the Georgia DNR pvc cube fish attractors

Break down guntersville lake for February say browns creek or state park

I wish you'd make videos like this for crappie and other fish...forget bass..i want some sammiches.

What swimbait heads are you using on the arig? Look to be weedless design.

I guess randy got you using megabass now

Question from the lamen. If you're fishing in 50 feet you're fishing straight down or casting pendulum style to the botttom on the fall. Right ? Big Jig ?

Can you do a lake break down on a lake like Greers Ferry. Very deep and all rock.

@FishtheMoment

2 жыл бұрын

All of the examples in this video from a "Highland Lake" are from lakes very similar to Greers Ferry. You can find spots that look identical to the ones in this video on Greers and they will hold fish. I've fished Greers dozens of times and have caught them there on every bait and structure mentioned in this video.

Hey Justin. We moved the livestream to a new channel last year and still do them every Tuesday at 7pm kzread.info

Can you only take the water down on reservoirs? All the body's of water I have around me don't show different levels of the water on Google earth it only shows the surrounding land changing. Water levels definitely change around me cause they have a winter and summer pool and I've physically these pools in person. Also I'm using the historical data on Google earth, is there another tool I can use on Google earth to bring the water down?

I have a gps/finder with no side view….. am I at big disadvantage? Need some help just trying to up my game….thanks

Possible to see google earth history on iPhone?

Channel swings don't have to be against a bank right?

I will never understand guys who get upset about throwing the A rig- why? It's not a magical bait, ppl act like the fish are just powerless to resist it when the reality is, it's like any other bait I've ever thrown in that you need the right time and location for it to work. And yes, there are multiple baits on the rig but- that's precisely how a spinner bait works to- especially the multi bladed spinners, and no one has an issue with them. Ppl throw the donkey rig without anyone getting upset- two baits, two hooks, good chance of catching doubles- just like an A rig. Do bass sometimes get more than one hook in them- yes, but I've never had it harm a fish. I'm sure it has at some point- one of them caught it in the gills or something, but I've had that happen with everything from ned rigs to crankbaits. The truth is, the A rig doesn't hurt bass any more often than any other bait. I tell you what guys don't like about it- just a few days ago I listened to Todd Castledine complaining about how mere amateurs were doing about as well as him at some lake he was practicing at because they were throwing an A rig- and he didn't think that was right. He felt it was unfair for them to enjoy as good of a day as him when they hadn't put in the time and effort he had. As a pro he has of course put in far more time on the water and developed his skill much further and he wants that to matter- how dare someone think they can be his equal. This, imo, sums up in a nutshell why guys don't like an A rig- ego.

What gloves are you wearing?

Could a bank fisherman get away with throwing soft plastic jerkbaits/flukes?

All these points sound like they only work around a creek channel. What if there is no channel

@FishtheMoment

2 жыл бұрын

On lakes without oblivious creek channels, look for the transitions from steeper to flatter sections of bank. Sometimes there will be no creek channel, but the contour lines on one side of a point will be much tighter together than on the other side. It takes more work to find them but they usually get less fishing pressure as a result.

Why don't you break down tidal water, rivers?

Ditches get fishes 😂

Honest question.. if Bass University is charging $120 for acces to thousands of videos for a whole year, why would we spend $100 for 1 seminar video of yours???

my😅no h i😅

Title is very misleading and video not helpful. I only have inland lakes - no reservoirs. So not what every fisherman needs to know. Do not like this video.
