    I completely become immersed in your videos. I'm 71 and retired and I think I'm going to buy a kayak and take up both bass fishing and fishing the saltwater marshes where I live for red fish, trout and flounder. You are truly an inspiration!!! I'm always watching for your next video!

    I love your videos! I've been watching your videos for a couple years now. No loud obnoxious music. Just hookset feed left and right. Always entertaining. The attention is always only on the bait and the fishing. It is exactly what every fisherman wants to see on KZread. Just reeling in fish left and right. I'm jealous of the locations you get to fish at. I live in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts. We do have some good fishing out here but it's nothing like what you have. All of our areas are overfished

    For some reason they just catch fish, pretty much any time I tie one on. You can hook directly through the worm but they’ll only last a fish or two that way. Most people use a small o-ring, I use a little band of clear heat shrink tubing at the middle of the worm and run the hook through that. I’m surprised the one fish shook my worm, one will usually last me all day.

    A marvellous fishing scenario all too similar, except for the water lilies, to the reservoir which is my bass paradise over here in Spain: clear water with tall columns of weeds. I enjoyed this video a lot because is about sight fishing, a practice I am familiar with since I was a kid but not by the wacky rig, of course, because that method had not been invented yet. I am talking about the seventies and the lure was a simple black plastic worm which was rigged weightless. Those marvellous worms were our “bread and butter” for bass fishing and were imported from the USA, the brand was Boone. The more veterans of you Americans will surely remember them. It was me as a kid the one in charge of preparing them for the three of us: my dad, my brother and myself. I would rig them with a length of monofilament and three small hooks driving the line through the worm by means of a solid long needle. Bass sight fishing in clear waters, like that of García de Sola reservoir, was a weekend joy: watching the bass dart to the worm, open its mouth and offer the green bright of its flank at the hookset …what a rush of adrenaline…
