Fishing with Danny Bassgood and Little Man

After having a tougher day than I was expecting i got lucky and found a special spot.

Fishing with what I think is the best topwater bait ever...The Evergreen SB during a late fall day on Wilson Lake in north Alabama. Shout out to www.thehookuptackle.com at the end of the video.

I get a few topwater bites ( evergreen sb105 ) and talk about my favorite lake. Wilson Lake in north Alabama. It has sentimental value to me because of the memories with Fisher and also have caught three of my personal best here and show the clips.

It's been a while since I posted a video but I got inspired to start filming again. I was out on Pickwick Lake and grinded out a few nice fish. Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

With working all week plus the weather changing every 24 hours, fishing on the weekends is tough sometimes. Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

Made some changes from the last video when I was stubborn and stayed with a jig too long. The water was clearing up so I changed to soft plastics and caught some bigger fish.

Sometimes the weather isn't good and you stay home but then you wish you would of went anyway...That's what happened in this video, I was going to stay home because it was rainy and cold. I'm glad I went and caught a huge blue cat, some bass and saw a buck chasing a doe close to the boat.

This is the 2nd day of a weekend where I threw a topwater the whole time. The previous video was Saturday. This video is Sunday when I made some adjustments that I probably shouldn't have but I found a bunch of fish schooling under a bridge that saved the day.

I've been struggling catching some big fish out deep so I decided to try shallow and caught some nice fish. Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

Finally got a couple topwater bites ( Evergreen SB105 ). Probably one of the craziest bites I've ever had, it's a must see!!! Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

Being first in bass fishing or any type of fishing in general is important especially during seasonal changes when the fish are moving. In this case during the spawn. Not all bass spawn at the same time so if you can stay ahead of them you can be successful for a while because you have fish in all different phases prespawn, spawn and postspawn. Since here on the Tennessee River your sight fishing options are limited due to the water color as soon as I know they are spawning ( bloody tails ) I start looking a little bit deeper and offshore a little bit trying to stay ahead of the bass.

Because of the high winds I decided to run up the Elk River on Wheeler Lake. I haven't fished in there much so I thought it would be fun to explore it a little bit since it's a popular fishing area. To my surprise it was a pretty good day a lot of little ones with a few nice ones mixed in.

Finally got a nice weather day with light winds and temps near 70. The lake was crowded with a lot of fisherman so that's a perfect time to pitch a beaver style bait. Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

A lot of changes are coming my way plus tournament footage from two tournaments one at Pickwick and one at Wilson. Also how I modify a jig and trailer straight from the package to the water. Please check out my other channel Fish Catches Only it's just short clips of fish catches.

Sometimes when you aren't getting many bites moving fast and hitting as many high percentage spots as you can is your best option.

Even though the water is cold the big females will move shallow to feed up before the spawn especially if the water is dirty. Don't let water temperature be a crutch in your fishing just use it as a general guide to get an idea of where to start looking for fish. Here in Alabama usually in late January to early February if you have dirty water and a nice sunny day you can catch some big fish shallower than you would expect. This was the case at Wilson lake today. Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

I finally caught some fish in 2022. Because of all the bad weather we were having during Christmas and New Years I wasn"t able to get on the water so it was good to get back out there.

It's been a year since I uploaded my first video so I wanted to say thanks to everybody who watched and subscribed to my channel. Hopefully we can grow a little bit more in the coming year. See you in 2022!!! Music courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com Track: In Another Mood by Johnny Berglund https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/HP3WUuEgSj/

Started the day fishing for largemouths but it wasn't going well so I switched and tried for some smallmouth near the dam. I got really lucky and caught a few including one giant.

I fished a different section of the lake but the jig bite wasn't as hot...One of my favorite baits in late fall and throughout the winter here in Alabama a War Eagle Mike McClelland 5/16oz finesse spinnerbait with a Strike King rage tail menace saved the day.
