The way he says "AYE BOI" when he gets one us funny asf😂

Iv been waiting Bill Dance from the 80's my one guy that I've learned about bass fishing 🎣 my family growing up only fish for trout and me everything. Thank you for your knowledge.

I remember when rods had a pistol grip handle and you could change rods using the same handle you could even build your own rod. I had one that a walnut grip bad idea is would slip in your hand my Son has the handles now. GOD bless you! Keep on keepin on!

To go fishing is one of the most pleasurable experiences I can imagine. Thanks for sharing this video..

Great video!! IMO the 7ft medium fast is my sweet spot for bass fishing in ponds and lakes here in Florida 👌

Heck yea bill I appreciate the tips and advice to help pick better rods for my arsenal of fishing gear!!

More importantly... find someone who can handle your rod like a pro, regardless of length. Mine may have some scars and a crooked eye, but man has it whooped up on some big-uns!! Also, it just feels perfect in my hand! Thanks Bill! Your advise has paid off in many ways, Your "worm fishing" vids have produced lots of "large mouths": throughout my life. No, I dont take pictures of them, only measurements.

Sure appreciate you doing these Mr. Bill

Thank You Bill for sharing your Experience & Tips. They are Always Appreciated. I've learned that the Longer Rods in Spinning & Casting are Much Better. You can stay farther away from the fish, which doesn't spook them. Also that you have more leverage in fighting a larger fish. My Success Rate has Drematically Increased. Shorter rods are a thing of the Past.

Love watching this guy, I feel like I’m back fishing with grandpa

Good info as always Bill 🎣

"I am confused"... damn that had me rolling. Exactly how I feel right now about shopping for a new rod. I am an experienced angler but I have not had the need to purchase a rod for a while now and the game has certainly changed. I require your help and with that line, you got me hooked. (Pun intended)

Great video, I appreciate all your tips.

How about something about multi-piece rods vs 1-piece.

This needs more views man great video

Looking good bill!

Great video

I just came across some pistol grip rods in my garage. They had their time also back then 😊

My standard rod, my go to for the longest time until very recently was a 7ft med power fast action rod. Recently I switched to a 7ft med med rod.

Nice vid

HI Bill, Good info here, But what is the best rod length and action for crappie fishing. I don't have a boat so I fish from the bank.

6’6” medium fast is my preference for spinning or casting!

Sometimes I’ll break out my 7’ casting rod but it’s rare.

6’6 is a great manageable length. Long enough for good casting but not so long you can’t reach the tip to untangle a twisted line.

I do think 6'6" is the perfect balance.

I started using 7ft rods the first time you spoke about them and it's hard for me to use shorter ones

I hope I learn something today bout rod

hey billdance fishing do you still have the TV show

Novice shore fisherman here. Can anyone explain why he missed so many fish? No shade, genuinely curious.

my daddy watched you on tv, an im watchen on youtube:P

Hey

I just watch a Mr Martin video talking bout rod strength and he said that heavy action rod was better for worms cause can set the hoock

So there’s no longer a short of it? I kayak fish small boats in small streams. Took a 7 foot rod once. Never again! Lucky I didn’t break it , very unmanageable in a boat 10 feet long and skinny water.
