    I watch more KZread than is healthy for a person, and you have consistently been my favorite channel. You are so goofy and genuine, and it feels like you take us along for the ride. Thank you for that. Also make a telescope eyed goldfish please. They are very pretty, and bass love goldfish, so I think you would knock it out of the park.

    I agree!! Great Dude and enjoyable videos!! and I like your idea, I would love to see how he would mimic the action! careful I been addicted since 07, only two thing you can do in life, Consume and create, the more you consume the more you have to Create, ( not talking about just videos but everything in general) and Life gets better the more I go out meet people and share All the knowledge and information I've consumed from YT over the years. Idk Just me? gets to a point where everyday is pointless, Idk how much YT you watch but If you go deep, remember, everything boils down consuming and creating Sorry will delete this comment if you think it has no value here, I just know too much yt at one point was damaging My mental health ,so I only hope to help anyone who might relate, to my plight and how I'm getting out of it

    I'm concerned on how you know bass love goldfish.. Goldfish are actually the WORST feeder fish, because they produce a toxic slime that over time can kill fish if they eat the goldfish.

    @@EarthshakerOnamazu I’ve never tried it, but I know some people who fished the canals and ponds of Florida in the late 90’s early 2000’s and they swear that bass love them more than shiners. It’s illegal to use them now, but a lure would hopefully produce the same result.

    As an Aussie, we have a prized species of "flathead" called a dusky flathead with is dark brown, sunset red to almost an olive green mixture. Mostly found around weedbeds feeding on open sand bars in shallower waters. Where as a sand flathead will bury itself in sand for the ambush. These are a salt water fish in no way similar to flathead catfish or whatever they are over there(:

    This was by far one of your most applicable fishing baits you have made. I'd love something similar to snook fish with. An interesting idea would be for you to make a few saltwater or larger lures. Then if you ever vacation near the saltwater with the larger game fish. You can bring the baits with you and have an easy video.

    If you ever need inspiration for some crazy colored lures, the "Darter" fish has some variants including the "candy darter", which look like some kind of silly shaped freshwater clownfish. They're also a protected species and apparently bass are their major predators.
