Nobody wants to get skin cancer.. 💀 Bimini tops can lengthen one's life expectancy if you spend enough time on the water. 💯 I always keep a waterproof cover for the bimini top in case of rain. 👍

Just watching this, great info and video, much appreciated, good luck with your tournament fishing, 👍

I live in your area and have been fishing lake notama

i have a point one onmy boat but i just bought a new simrad unit, do you recommend using the point one or the built in gps in the unit?

ZERO RESPECT for use of cameras. Like sonar isn't enough for YOU to prove there are fish. Simply pitiful. REAL FISHERMAN don't need cameras

thank you for this video ive been on the fence about putting one on my tracker for a few years now but havent because of height and what else not but i cant stand having my rear end on fire from standing up for two seconds. (i also have black seats big mistake)

Back in the day when they delivered mail by horse the postman generally average 10 to 12 mi per horse. And hear you guys are doing a 100 mi in 24 hours

Hope all u pos Nascar drivers keep ur boats on folsom lake.natoma is a paddling lake.u mf end up bleeding in the parking lot sooner or later.

Fished the delta yesterday and got some on the plopper using your tips. I was fishing toolys and troughs. First time on the new Bass boat too

Me and my son smoke them out there all the time.

does the top interfere fishing in the back

Don’t think so

I used to fish Lake Natoma when I was younger and I even caught an 11 lb 4 oz largemouth at Willow Creek back in the mid 80s, at the time I think it was the lake record

Yea! Congratulations! I will live vicariously through you as I no longer ride. How special for you too.

No one likes boats on that lake ...!

🔥🔥I can’t believe how long that lure been around, I just started fishing it here in Massachusetts 5 years ago 2018 and still love it,mostly 130 &190 nothing smaller 🤙

Yooooo🔥 this is a great video 👌

Great video Aaron. These tops are definitely a game changer. I was going to buy a T-Top for my bay boat, but bought the bimini top instead. There are just so many more advantages..plus I save over $1000 if I were to have bought the T-Top. Thanks again.

WOW!! I never imagined that someone could make Buck's Bar look so good!!! Dope clips of the routes, rappelling into Unconquerable. Legend. This is my gym. Thanks for showing it off!

Must have for boat owners!!!

Not sure but the anglers have lost interest in using the Whopper Plopper

That’s absolutely incredible!!! I hope I can at least try to attempt this ride. You guys are beautiful!

Hey why not just use the 706cb for the 130 whopper plopper too. Since the 130 size is bigger and weighs more then the 110 size. The 706cb should work perfect for the 130 size too as it does for the 110 size

Gotta use 6-8lb test on that lake if you wanna hook into giants more often.

My buddy just caught a 10lb-11oz giant yesterday. It was wild. Lol

I won't own a boat without one down here in Florida

It is a tough lake, I live at the Rollingwood bluffs and fished more than a few times. Caught a 3lber near submerged trees next to dam..otherwise 1lbers next to those shallow spawn beds. Many hours cruising the canoe. Shouldn't the carp be removed from the lake?

This is fantastic, thank you for sharing!

This looks so exciting, I’m definitely gonna do this one year

I never knew that section was trolling motor only. I had a small boat with a 2.5 hp motor that I been using there. I like fishing the lake during spring time. That's usually the best time they start to hit moving baits and top water. During the winter is super tough.

Folsom police officers are corrupt, their behavior is that of pedophiles. They steal pictures of your adult daughters online and they send these pictures out to citizens in a fraudulent way with an intent to sex traffic your daughters and with an intent to entrap citizens. They invited my friend over. My friend was under impression that he was going in for a massage, these cops used abbreviations unknown to him, my friend figured that it would be a quality visit with a quality massage for an hour that would include a fast shower before and after massage. My friend wasn't aware that these cops had sex on their mind and that they were using pictures of your daughters that they have stolen with an intent to entrap citizens. So here these cops engaging in theft, fraud and sex trafficking, serious crimes. And then on a police report these cops lie that these stolen pictures are of an undercover officer, who doesn't look anything like the pictures. Per my friend, a female undercover officer is an older woman and a heavy set woman who does not look like the stolen pictures that were sent to him. Falsifying a police report by lying on it is a serious crime also. The behavior of these cops is that of pedophiles, they steal pictures of your daughters online with an intent to sex traffic them. One can conclude that if they steal photos of your adult daughters online then they also steal photos of your underage daughters. These cops are very twisted. We need them off our streets. Their names are Gavin Plank, Lou Wright, John Stegner, Patrick Thibeault, Howard, Zelaya, etc Also on top of all of this, these cops were endangering people that were staying at the local hotel where they were sex trafficking your daughters by not wearing masks. Masks were required in public places at the time of this incident. Per my friend, there was about 10 of these cops in 2 rooms and none of them were wearing a mask. These cops were sneezing and making jokes that they have covid, they are perverted human beings, they need to be stripped of uniform and badge immediately!!

Killer info

Aaron-1) Is your 1,2,3,4 pause retrieve your go to retrieve for walking the dog with top water lures? 2) Are there any good places to fish from the bank at Lake Natoma? Thanks for your informative videos. Philip

None.

You look like you are pretty successful at fishing but.... have you ever tried fishing heading UPSTREAM? The fish are always facing upstream, waiting for food to float down. They can see you when the water is clear. I have better luck sneaking up behind the fish

I hit up Natoma earlier today to try out a new Whopper Plopper and I got a whole bunch of nice Largemouth. They love that Whopper Plopper! Also got a Smallmouth on a soft swimbait just pulling it through the weeds. I've heard a ton of anglers complain that the lake doesn't hold fish but I've been lucky there over the years. Such a great piece of water, right in my backyard, always tranquil, and if you know how to approach it, you can spend an awesome day pulling bass out. Great video Aaron - love to meet you out there one day!

One thing you did not mention, from Hangman's bridge on HWY 89/4 to the the Nevada state line, only artificial lures with single barbless hook may be used, zero keep on non hatchery fish. The very quick look at the sign with the regulations, was way too fast to read. I recommend to any one fishing any part of California download and print the regulations, especially the special regs. sections as applied to different parts of many rivers, streams and lakes. Like a lot of bureaucratic/political foul ups in this state, California no longer prints hard copies of the booklet.

Awesome - I have been loving your videos Aaron. Have you ever spent any time trying to hit the huge trout that live just below the prison around the bridges? The water is really deep and I have caught a couple of heavy trout there, but they're wary and unpredictable! Access is tricky unless you have a boat/board but mostly the fish are deep and they are well fed from the chum which comes out of the dam, so they're tricky. But I love that spot and I know that if you hit it right you can bring big rainbows up to your lure. I'm out there quite often - I'd love to meet you out there!

The best way to catch them is the ned rig

Very well done, great overview of the race! It would have been cool to include footage of Cougar Rock, the iconic rock scramble. Congrats to Shellie and Rashid for such an incredible accomplishment!

I volunteered with the tevis cup a few times it was a lot of fun

I spend years in the mtns at gold mining ops 50- 60 years ago as a dumb kid fishing crystal clear tiny streams, small streams, small river to catch food, not fun fishing, fishing to put food on the sticks and plates and my tackle consisted of a used Mitchell 300 with 30lb or so mono and a rod that was probably around 8' long and never used a leader, hell, I never even knew about leaders. I had some small hooks that worked and the large hooks I'd put them in the fire and bend them to make the gap small, looking back those hooks were in the range of 4/0, 5/0 range, LOL. That rod I ended up just cutting in half because it was a total pain in the ass fishing with a pole vault stick in the bank trees, boulders and scurrying up cliff faces to get past waterfalls ect. Caught thousands of trout from 6" to 18-20" with that set-up. Pros and ect talk about needing a 4lb leader for brook trout, this lb leader for this and that....No, you don't need that to catch fish in even crystal clear water or even dirty water. Now, I'm old and live in the valley and started fishing dirty water for bass, trout, stripers, salmon...and it's the same thing. The only advantage I can see from small line and long arse rods is casting far with these big rivers, up in the hills if I wanted to "cast" far I'd have to put a piece of bark on the line, let the barked line drift down the waterway, give it a hank and the bark would fall off and you're fishing. Been fishing 3 weeks now and still don't use a leader, I use 30lb dark green braid instead of 30lb mono that was already so old back in the day as a kid when it was like a stiff Slinky toy. Yesterday was 4 Stripers (3 keepers) and 4 Large mouth bass while everyone else was catching nothing by fishing the wrong spots/the wrong way. I watched these Lesieur videos on fishing and Roland Martin videos and applied that in the field..it works. Funny, looking back decades at that tackle I got given to me it had some hooks with leaders attached and looped at the ends and my thought was "Look, there line is already tied to the hook!" since I didn't know any fishing knots or leaders back then and all my fishing knots consisted of one, two granny knots and that's it.

I've been hesitant to put a bimini top on my bass boat but the sun is killing my fair skin. Your video convinced me to get one today. Thanks! New subscriber

Rashid is is a stunner!

Great content! Really learning a lot, will there be more videos coming soon?

Good catch!

He sure is handsome!

Holy cow, I just started watching your fishing videos and didn't realize you're the Bixxel Aaron! Ashley (Smentek) was telling me about you for photography and I listened to your episode on Robert's podcast. This is awesome! I'm sure we'll bump into each other on the trails at some point 🤘

Have u ever wished u would have more height ?

Nice Fishin where do you guys launch your boat at on the Delta never fished the Delta it will be my first time
