Man, what a terrific video. I got my ass whooped by a lake full of grass today and I found your video when I got home with a broken heart.
Thank you for being so generous in sharing your knowledge.
Absolutely my favorite angler. Man is a pleasure to listen to as well. What a fisherman! Im a jig man like you brother. Brad in Louisiana
Like watching an artist paint a masterpiece. I could watch and listen to Tharp flip all day everyday. I love these kind of videos.
Just found you! Christmas was good this year. Received a Revo Rocket 10:1.1 with a Bass X 7’11” extra heavy! Excited for summer dock flippin and piching and late summer punching! Working on my bait arsenal now!😁👍
Mind blown! Thank you for taking the time to do this.
I greatly totally agree with the whole point you made on if the line matters bro.I get asked all the time,why I use braid,lol.I have no room for errors when it comes to setting my hook and retrieving.
Thanks Randall for the information very helpful good video
So good. More please!
I really needed this video! Firstly on fishing braid with confidence in vegetation- hell Im going to take it another step and go hi vis yellow now and see if it makes any difference- ok ok I might black out 8ft with a marker :-). But the real gold in this vid is the advice on striking. Just got back from a tournament- in practice I buried the hook and didn’t strike. They just wouldn’t let it go. Tournament day 1 the first bus grabs it and I immediately drop the tip and absolutely smoke him on a slack line - miss. Two casts later another bus same story. Missed 5 in a row! Next bite I let her eat, wind down and lean into it - 10lb in the boat and again and again. Such good advice Randall - especially on 1oz weights and above. What a legend!
I discovered this in a weird way when I was a kid back in the 90s. My little boat got blown into a field of pads while I was fishing a “jig n pig” (that’s what we used to call jigs back in the day 🤷♂️). So I just dumped my jig into this little hole in the pads with zero expectation…I don’t know why I did it. Maybe I was procrastinating and didn’t feel like picking up my oars to get myself out of there just yet. But it was immediate…it didn’t even hit bottom and my line started moving back into the pads, STICK. It’s funny, back before the internet was a thing, the only way we figured this stuff out was by sharing information or trial and error. That was a totally unexpected success in the midst of my early fishing adventures as a kid.
Great video with alot of really good info thanks.....
Great info bro,can't explain it no better or simpler
I’ve probably watched this several times. Thank Randal hope to meet you one day
Met you at the Dicks sporting goods humble grand opening, since then I’ve been following you and just now realized you had a CZcams. Super informative! Love Lews, way better than all the others
Hi Randall, great session for me. I fish in similar waters and it was exceptionally helpful. I have a question. Would you use weedless hooks in this type of situation!? Thank you, Frank
Awesome video and very informative! Do you ever switch up your plastic to a stick worm when flipping and punching and why or why not? Thanks in advance!
definitely lake Seminole. late summer pretty much all you can do is flip or fish deep river bends. bites are few but the quality is there.
Thx brother, great info
Would love to see more flipping videos.
Great vid. With the Coronavirus, our lakes haven't been tended to, and so there's a lot more weeds and grass than usual. I'm finding myself being forced to better understand working baits around and through this stuff.
Man i wish you were still on the Elite series !
“They didn’t get big cause they’re dumb. They’re not gonna bite or they’re gonna leave”
That resonated well.
Great video, I just recently started fishing a clear water reservoir with heavy grass. This is a great help. The local anglers have been 'line shaming' me about my heavy line (14 lbs test)
12-14 is in my opinion my favorite size of line to flip and pitch
Very enlightening
RL Burnside intro won me over
good stuff!!
Awesome video! Def have a grasp now on the flipping, I've been learning all I can on flipping I love it! However I often hear the pros say when u c ur line jump I'm curious r they addressing the bait falling? Or how do u identify line jump! I know if my line is swimming ones got it but if they pick it up on the fall I'm clueless
Bassin’ Passion the “line jump” means a bass just bit your bait
@@randalltharpfishing9931 u need to start a channel full time! I’d love to dive more into ur head! U keep it simple and don’t get spun out and u stick to ur strengths
Around here in Oklahoma we have docks in submerged grass is there a way to skip under the dock and still punch it
That’s my heaven
this guy says it rite
Do you go to the bottom every flip or do you punch or flip just under the matts sometimes
So is your braid tied directly to your jig ? Or have you a leader ?
As a prefered flippin and pitcher, Do you prefer more padding in your boat? Reason I ask is I'm dealing with an issue of having back pain from this technique. Yet it's a technique that's putting fish in the boat.
Kayem Kay I understand but i can't set the hook with a medium rod. It's too flimsy.
James Hall fishing, I fish medium and medium fast rods when i fish the slop cause i don't have a flipping rod yet and i've almost never had a problem setting the hook, but anyways maybe try using a chair if you can fit it on your boat, other then that you'll just have to deal with back pains. you could also just have bad posture when your fishing, idk.
Too many fisherman give up way too early when they flip or pitch. It is a slow process, however you will get the biggest bass using this method.
Looks like Lake Fork back in the 90s
There has been a couple of times my buddy out punched me , he had 20 lb Fluoro and I didn’t but who knows he coulda had the hot stick that day
I fish with 65lb braid all the time. Im pretty sure fish can see the line but its more like they dont care about the line
I wish my lakes had the vegetation needed to flip
did he clarify the exact braid weight? ( lb ) if so I missed it....
50 or 65 lb
Ive fished invisible disappearing red braid next to hi-vis yellow and catch as many fish on one color as the other. Can fish see the bright yellow line better? Of course they do! Can they reason that the line tied to a bait they are about to hit could be attached to a rod and present a danger? Their brain is the size of an acorn....dont give them too much credit! Line color doesnt matter, I've seen it 100 times. MAYBE a to brookie in a clear stream may make a difference, for bass in heavy cover...doesnt matter!
What I like is most of these guys that want to tell you how to fish never catch , so what they do dose it really work
you're a special one :)
Kelly LeBlanc I'm guessing you have no idea who Randall Tharp is...
Mr Tharp can catch them👍
Kelly LeBlanc is highly uneducated in the subject of bass fishing.
Randall, are you fishing with a leader here?
Florida won't let that happen sprayed over sprayed bout to be sprayed, dead sprayed main lake sprayed FWC HAS KILLED MY HOME LAKE
I'd rather just fish with a topwater frog
The longer the rod the more leverage THE FISH HAS .
Why not just use a lefty reel? What a pain in the ass constantly switching hands. Not like the fish is a big marlin or something.
John Chang I fish left handed too
Yup.... I do the same. Makes no sense to me switching hands like thay constantly. I get comments from others regarding my left hand reels.
It just feels that much more natural.
For myself I agree with that. The only time I would maybe want a right hand retrieve is when flipping and pitching so the line doesn't get caught in the handle.
@@m14hh5, I can tell that you ACTUALLY flip heavy cover, because the line DOES get caught in the crank/handle when using a lefty when flipping. I use a lefty for everything else; but for flipping, it can't be done without getting your braid wrapped up on your reel.
@@joshuaflores3647 Haha I really don't do much flipping but I figured the one right handed reel I had would go on the rod that I would be most likely to flip with. I am thinking now that might not be the best way to go.
At what point with all this talking do you catch a fish
You lack power in your reel because its a Lews ;)
Randall Tharp I did too...until i picked up some Shimanos
i’m telling you right now my $250 dollar Abu Garcia reel catches the same amount of fish that my $10 dollar Shakespeare combo catches.
It’s how you fish not what you fish with.
Not in Texas u will not stick one with the 10 dollar combo
Bring that set-up down to Okeechobee and see what happens.
Until the 10 Dollar reel falls apart on a fish of lifetime.
This dude didn't catch a single fish haha. Shiiiiiiii...
