I have been bass fishing for 6,205 days. I've been making YouTube videos for 4,380 days. And this is my best day of bass fishing ever. We caught five bass weighing a combining weight of nearly 40 pounds.
My boy Adub also caught his PB bass in this video. So what are we waiting for? Sit back, relax, grab some popcorn, because this is gonna be good.
oh my gosh don't do that to me baby don't do that to me don't do that to me get him though all right guys we're gonna rig up a standard texas rig here quarter ounce weight three odd extra y-gap hook we're gonna tie this on with a uni knot this might be our go-to today if we can find some of these fish on bed this is a little texas rig caught him here great in the passed on this so we're gonna give it a shot see if some of these fish are up shallow on some of these sea walls and banks see if we can spot any bedding got a brand new pack of Strike King Rage crawls I know this is my favorite crawl bait and it has been for the last ten years this is all I really throw this one's just in June bug the water looks a little stained we had a bunch of nasty weather blow in last couple of days so with that water being a little murkier than usual i'm gonna put a darker color on and start off here if they're not eating that we can go with like a more natural or maybe like a summer crawl color that is our rig pretty basic got this paired up on my kicking their bass tvx loose baitcaster if you guys want to check them out kickingtheirbass.com it'll be linked down below before we get deeper into this video only 27 of y'all watching these videos are actually subscribed so if you could take the time hit the subscribe button really helps the channel i'd appreciate it oh there we go i think i just got bit yep that's a big one that's a big one guys first fish look at him running oh he came on holy cow that's our first bite that might tell us a little something about the shallow shallowness up here dang man he totally was pulling me to the left i couldn't turn him oh there we go that was a freaking slam He's totally spit it out. Here we go. We're gonna make another cast here.
It didn't feel like a big one. Kind of felt like a small one bite but he's got it. Oh my gosh yeah. He's definitely on bed.
I haven't been biting like that 100%. We're gonna throw it up there. Boom hits the bottom.
He's got it. Oh, he came off again. See, that's a fish on bed.
You know what he's got? He's got the pinchers in his mouth. He don't have the whole bait.
See how he stole one of my crawls right there? Hopefully I didn't get a piece of him that time. See, that felt like a small one, but we got to remember these bass, that bass is on bed and a big one can feel like a small one like that when they're not grabbing it all the way. Dude, what in the world? He broke me off.
Completely. What is going on here, man? I'm getting schooled right now.
That might not be a bass. Dude, that looks like a catfish bite. I'm sorry. I don't know.
I could be wrong here. But the way that that... fish was biting i mean it could have been a bass on bed there might be a bass up there but that second bite felt it felt odd there's a lot of catfish in here so that wouldn't surprise me i don't know why he would be up there on the edge of the grass you know we got a rough little start but we're gonna redeem ourself let's get back in there i can't believe that man lost a big one and that that felt like heavier too but i just i don't know man you how'd he eat it again there he is there he is yeah that's a nice one yeah it's like a solid three pounder there's no way this is the one i broke off right just imagine imagine he has the bait in his mouth i don't think he does but oh that's like a four man oh there we go first fish of the day beautiful fish right there definitely not the one we broke off look at look at the tail beautiful three and a half to four pounder right there wow that is why i love being out here stanley traditions right there beautiful healthy fish getting back in the water fresh release There we go, boys.
Hey, we had a tough little start there. We broke off and then we lost that other fish, but we got redemption there. And I want to say that's a different fish.
And he bit it like a bass. See that? little tiny bass i think i he came off i don't i don't care about losing that one that's what was pecking me guys that might have been the one little tiny male but this this is the dude they're locked man they are on the beds this is a crazy stretch too i've bed fished a lot over the years but dude i haven't seen bass this dang aggressive that's a little one i think that's a little male they're so aggressive man oh my goodness they are so aggressive look at that fish right there beautiful two and a half that's a little chunkier than i thought he was beautiful fish so pretty and healthy that time i had him he wasn't coming off beautiful little two pounder Right now, they are biting so good. I don't think I've seen a bed bite this nasty.
And we haven't even been fishing long. Uh-oh. That's a big one, guys. That's him. That's him.
I haven't got a good chance to feel him good. I'm trying to keep this pressure. He feels massive.
Oh my god, okay. Yep. He's massive Yep. Oh my gosh.
I gotta get the net actually We're gonna get inside this massive guys. It's like a seven pounder. Oh My gosh, dude, this fish is huge this is him. Oh my god. Come here, baby Come here, baby.
Come here, baby Oh my gosh she came off in my hand Dude she came off in my hand Adam. That's like a seven She came off in my hand, dude, if I didn't go for it. Oh my goodness.
All right, let's get a weight on this big girl. I'm thinking she might be seven. Oh my God, she's seven and a quarter.
Seven pounds, four ounces. Guys, I do want to get a picture of this. A-Dub's over there.
So just for the time being, we're not going to have her in here long because I want to release her right back here. I'm just going to set her here so she's healthy and I don't keep her out of the water. What a beautiful fish.
She's seven and a quarter. quarter we're gonna go over to a dub i kind of want to put them on my boat real quick and see if you can catch it i think there's another one just as big here for my guide trip with noah from kicking their bass what's up adub how you been dude been good how about you man so where do they need to find you you need to find me on uh online at youtube.com youtube channel adub Man, that's a giant. Oh my gosh, did you see the way he turned? I knew it.
I told him he was gonna catch an eight pounder on that. I don't know how big he is. Oh, it's a giant.
Did you see how he just did that loop? That's a giant. You wanna get the net?
I was talking about the eight. Was that not the craziest guess? I mean, three pounder. Dude, what he did, he made him seem like he was 10 pounds.
He went zoom, zoom, zoom. Noah's got the special touch. I guess so. I should have kept throwing him a pink worm.
I mean it's a pretty one. Like a 2, 2.5, 3? It's a pretty one. Can I pull this line you think? Maybe I can.
It's a fatty! That's a good two and a half, two and a half. He's only three pounds without fatty.
He honestly could be. Pretty guys. Old A-Dub special. Oh my god, grab this pole, please.
He hooks at it. Is it on there? Yes, it's on there.
Get him. It's like a one pounder. I was like, take this pole, please.
Oh man, I just I couldn't accept myself if it was actually like a seven pounder. I had to give you the rod. I would have been so mad.
He's like, he's like, he's like, here, you should throw my rod. I'm like, okay, here, take mine. He was here catching two fish on mine.
I haven't even caught anything on his. This is sorcery Alright guys, there we go seven and a quarter get her back in the water Wow There we go guys. That's a fish of a lifetime All right guys pulling up on a different bank we're gonna see what we can get started here throwing a little lipless right now just kind of fan casting seeing if i can trigger one to bite i'm probably gonna pick up this crawl back up there's a bunch of good grass rock and lay downs on the bank i think we could catch a few big ones here maybe we'll run up on another seven eight pounder that would just be insane Should be some up here guys. A good mixture of wood, rock, deeper water. Might be some big ones bedding up here.
General rule of thumb is, you know, shallow water for them bed baths. But some of these big ones will start getting out deeper. That's what I'm hoping we'll find right here.
Oh, big boil up there guys. Huge boil. there we go oh that's a nice one there we go that's what we're talking about a solid like three and a half pounder yes sir oh she's wild oh she's fat too look at that look at that fat bass wow that's pretty Fish are loving that rage crawl. I haven't really had to switch up.
I was thinking I might have to go through a few different baits today to figure out what they wanted but we kind of hit the needle on the head right there at the beginning and knew exactly what we needed and they're eating it so we ain't gonna stop. There's a female up there, though. There's one thing when you're bed fishing, guys.
There's not always going to be a male and a female up there. The general rule in thumb, if you throw up there and catch a male bass, throw back up there, there's more than likely a female in it. And they're not always... gonna bite this good this is actually the best bed fishing bite i've ever got on like i haven't seen fish bite this good just right on their bed we might just time this perfectly like we might today might just be that day that they're just they're eating so good they're really aggressive i mean don't get me wrong these bass are usually aggressive on bed but these fish aren't hesitating they're eating it oh If that was a bite, that was a big one.
I thought I saw a shadow in the water. Yeah, I think I see one's tail up there. This bank looks like it has them pretty good. So that spot that we started off on down there was really deep. This side is a lot flatter.
I think that's been the key to why these fish are here. I think there should be one right there. uh oh there we go another bite that's where he was not a big one another male maybe some of these females aren't all up i mean we know they are because i got that seven seven and a quarter there's some of them not but a lot of these might be male bass that's another male that one's close to two pounds if not two a lot of these males biting thank you baby and one thing to think about when you're bed fishing usually when you find a setup when you find a bed with a fish on it there's more than likely going to be more in the area so that's kind of what we've experienced you know i fished around didn't have any bites for a minute there then i pulled up on that bank didn't have any bites and then we get down a little bit more to where it's flatter and these fish are these fish are eaten That's a giant.
Oh yeah. Look at that bass. Wow.
First fish today that is totally... Coke the bait. That's a beautiful one.
Adam is hooked up with a freaking large one. We're so far out. There you go.

You're not even setting the hook that hard, bro. It's because he's scared of breaking off. We're going to set her just in that water.
I'm going to let her recoup. Big fish like that, you want to take very good care of. They're a little more fragile than them smaller bass. Boys.
Oh my gosh Senor, hey, let's freaking go baby. I think if you like How do you call it like now now rating what's going on?

I looked at him and I said, dude, we're about to double up. I see him. And I didn't really think much about it, man.
So, boys, that fish for today, you know, we were getting extra footage for Juan because we wanted to get a video together. He was on the kayak the whole day. So we came back out after fishing earlier. So between our best five, between all of us today, is that 35 pounds. Which is the biggest bag.
My biggest bag is 33. Got it twice and that was last week. So this is the fourth 30 pound bag in a week. probably probably eight or nine days that's four 30 pound bags and i've never had a 30 pound bag in my life on the boat crazy bro i've had 28 29 pound bags never 30 and i caught how do you catch 430 this is crazy man every year i wonder how can the next year get better and it just somehow does here we go boys nine pounder We're gonna move the trolling motor to the left just a little bit and we'll release her right by her bed I wanted to get her in the live well Before we took a picture just so she had some water in her and we're gonna release this true giant She's feisty too That's a beautiful fish You ready?

This is a day of a lifetime guys. I mean not only is the fishing good but the weather is just so pretty. The whole scenery.
Yeah the scenery here at Stanley's is just beautiful. Nope, not yet. There should be another one there.
I mean they're all so nice man. All so healthy. Look at his lipstick.
This one has makeup done. Look. Do we really have to go bro? I know, I could just sleep out here on the boat right?
Are you sure we gotta go from Stanley? I like Stanley, bro. I'm with you on that. Excuse me, sir. Go to the right to me, where I was.
You gotta be up there. Excuse me, sir. Up there. See by that bush and that knee?

It might be. That's your pee, buddy. Oh, my gosh.
Don't do that to me, baby. Don't do that to me. Don't do that to me.
Get him, Noah. Get him, Noah. Get him, Noah.
Oh, my gosh. What are you doing? Bro, that was the most disaster.
Dude, the net was flopped on top, so it was like a pancake when I got on top of it. Dude, you got him in the net and he slithered out. It literally just fell right out. He slithered out of the net.
I never do that either. That was like the most disasterful net job I've ever done in my life. I'm disappointed.
That was probably the worst net job ever. I'm just glad we landed. Wow, look at the belly. Look at that belly, guys.
Oh, dude. Dios mio! She eating hamburgers and hot dogs.
Yeah, she's gonna be eight over eight for sure. Oh, she's not a 10. She's not a 10. 978! No way!
Bro, I ain't even kidding. Oh my god, wait 970 D6 976 It's a PB! That's 10 pounds bro Dude, oh my gosh 76 bro What in the world That is insane Adub just caught his PB All I can say is wow Been waiting for this moment for a while. It's still not a true double digit, but we're rounding up and saying it's a 10. Caught it with the Mock Crush, borrowing this one from Noah, and got the Rage Space Monkey.
I love this bait. A lot of people don't know about it. It's money, dude. And it catches fish like this.
You might want to check them out and you might want to check out Stanley's because They've got some really big fish here, and it's really beautiful I mean, it's just it's a perfect place and they grow these here. I mean if you don't want to catch these there's something wrong on with you. There's a giant.
We got two fish for over 19 pounds. All right let's get this big girl back bro. Let's get her back.
