Thank you everyone for watching! I hope this helps you when fishing around RIPRAP! 💪 What teaching point was most helpful to you? Let me know in the comments below! 👇👇
Went and hit the rio rap on the bridge by my boat ramp here on hartwell. Caught them throwing a square bill, and a shaky head. Water is super high on Hartwell at the moment. Keep crushing it Edwin
I have watched a lot of teaching videos on bass fishing but the depth that you go into starting with the electronics then lures and retrieve, water clarity and presentation it is the most complete I have seen. You are really good at this. Thank you!
The guys that are able to find the differences in the rocks, such as transitions, current breaks, holes, and indentations, are the ones who are gonna catch them. Great job breaking it down for us E.
E.E., these videos are excellent! I really appreciate how in-depth you go while teaching different techniques or how to fish different structures. Thanks a lot.
Im a bank fisherman. There was a lot of good points u made here. I think the points that I takeaway are bass are moving constantly, not sitting in one place and fish both directions of rip rap. Thx it was a good video. I also.like how u made in the details page points u talked about like chapters of a book at the listed times.
@@EdwinEversfishing Wow, that would be great if you do bank fishing videos for us bank beaters. Its hard to find a pro or a very knowledgeable fisherman on youtube that does bank fishing videos that teach us the quality and quantity of information that is given to boat fisherman. Im going to subscribe to your channel so i dont miss out on these upcoming videos.
Your series is very good. The professional quality is excellent. When you explain the techniques you are using its as if we are both in the same boat. Thanks
Heat sinks, in the winter, never forget the rock. Thanks for sharing it Edwin. Good stuff, sharing the juice. 100 plus days and nights many times on rip rap.
I really liked the tip about water clarity and lure color selections. One thing you may have mentioned, but possibly I missed, is what kind of line you usually use for your cranking and spinnerbaits? I usually use fluorocarbon fishing line because it has low stretch and it is super sensitive. Many times I will actually fish my crankbaits and spinnerbaits by simply dragging my rod tip in a slow sweeping motion so that I have an even better sensation of what those baits are hitting down there along the bottom of the rip rap. Great video!!!
Moving from Arizona to New Mexico for my retirement, our lakes' main structure is rip rap. Once I accepted that, I have caught more fish. I'm still always looking for more tips. Our lakes constantly fluctuate, and I always see holding crevices for fish, for when water rises. Pointing them out to other fishermen, they don't seem to understand. You gotta think like a fish, sometimes. (-:
Heck yeah, great info on rip rap. Thanks for the tips. I liked the part of mixing up lure retrieve speed. I fight that issue with my stubborn self all the time. LOL. Stay safe out there.
Thanks for sharing 👍 I find it difficult to fish weighted worm and jigs in riprap some time crankbaits. I get my baits wedged in the rocks . The are got fish from the bank . I sometimes make a plug knocker out of a fallen sapping. Thanks again.
Good stuff. Been Fishing the Rip Rap of Lake Texoma(Dam). Interesting as they continue to draw down lake (2.5’up ) the bite varies varies from day to day. One day cranks worked the next finesse baits were used to get bites(calmer 2nd day as well- water dropped 6”) Think your point on targets(maybe a little more bush in the water along bank) and bait activity(wind) made the difference. Guess if it gets slow throw left and catch Striper.
1/2 oz compact jig n zoom is my go to bait for dams, also spook early in am or low light. Our fish in Illinois are over pressured so the jig seems to get me the most bites.
It was super reassuring to watch this video! This is how my dad & I fish riprap! We don’t usually catch as many as you did in this video, though, looks like we have some practicing to do (;
Welcome to falcon Edwin! I hope you had a great time and thank you for giving our lake the the attention that was needed. I would encourage everyone to come on down and fish for some big bass. 100% safe regardless if its shared waters with mexico.
Fishing the rip rap at a 90 was my best takeaway. I always catch myself paralleling the bank on rock. My home lake has 10+ ft visibility and can be challenging at times. I’ll be giving this approach a try! It would be an honor to be able to fish with u !
Edwin Evers Fishing / yea dude I’ll definitely will be watching your stuff because everything you’re putting out is no bs. Oh! Also the fact your E-Square!!!Sorry to be fan boy but dude!Ha Ha! I’ve been following all the pros for probably 35 plus years! You know how people keep up with like NASCAR and know names where they are from stats etc. I get into it big time.Fired up on the tournaments back up and going! Good luck the rest of the season!
Everything helped 😂!! But how you listen to the fish and made changes and fished a single run spot multiple times and kept changing things up and kept catching fish. Taking notes of special rocks for different water levels.
when i see the fish moving by the rip rap at the lower here they are always going clockwise. very rarely counter clockwise.. thoug here it seems to be more specific timing.. like if the crawdads spawned and are all up in it.. or post spawn when all the tiny fresh spawns and fingerlings like to hang out in them.. on the banks.. what would you recommend near the rip rap just wondering.. i usually do weightless texas rigged. i think from boat you can take more advantage of it with more baits. how can they spawn and make a bed in the rip rap.. lol. the bottom edge? where its dirt but on the rocks.. i never seen that. my lake is different though.l. its hard for me to even see beds here and its super clear water. usually they make beds deep.. the upper here is a pain also because in the spawn it lowers they start to make beds then the water raises 20-25 foot because we are at bottom of aqueduct.. but the lower has rip rap too and stays a little more steady with water height but ya its high pressured here so maybe the bass just smarter and make beds deeper where they know fisherman cant see em.. i do get hogs near rip rap post spawn though.. and usually its consistent every year one near there post spawn..
Thank you everyone for watching! I hope this helps you when fishing around RIPRAP! 💪

Making long casts with the spinnerbait!
This is my first time watching you and I am hooked. Great stuff, I'm subbed and ready for more.
Most helpful teaching point: vary your retrieve speed, thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us E!

Kyle Mollet Fishing thank you!
Mr Evers thanks for the tips. Good points on how to fish the rap. You are one heck of a
teacher. God Bless you and the USA!
Can't get enough of Project "E"
E.E., these videos are excellent! I really appreciate how in-depth you go while teaching different techniques or how to fish different structures. Thanks a lot.
Fishing in Faith I appreciate you tuning in! See you next week 💪

Thank you for a nice, informative video that isn't a 15 minute commercial for "brand x" bait. Keep up the great work!

Great pointers brother. Great Video.

Thank you!
Edwin if you keep putting up videos like this, you will be at 100,000 subs in no times awesome.
Thank you for the support!
Great video, rip rap is mostly what i fish since I'm back to fishing from the bank. I like a weightless Texas rig senko. I don't get hung up as much
Heck yeah, great info on rip rap. Thanks for the tips. I liked the part of mixing up lure retrieve speed. I fight that issue with my stubborn self all the time. LOL. Stay safe out there.
thank you, you too!
Some of the best fishing info online!!
awesome video I was just there 2 days ago shore fishing and caught 7, that is Falcon lake just where Rio bravo starts
Project E has to be one of the best video series in CZcams love it man!
Thank you for the kind comments I’m enjoying doing them!
Thanks for sharing 👍 I find it difficult to fish weighted worm and jigs in riprap some time crankbaits. I get my baits wedged in the rocks . The are got fish from the bank . I sometimes make a plug knocker out of a fallen sapping. Thanks again.
Thanks for the great information great video great teacher please keep them coming!
Jamie Hartzell Thank you! They’ll keep coming right here every Tuesday! 🎣

🤦♂️Stripers... I don’t miss them on Texoma! They always gotten my way I wish you the best
Where's this channel been at??? Stoked I found it. RIP rap is a huge deal on Smith mountain lake my home lake. Paralleling that rip rap is deadly
1/2 oz compact jig n zoom is my go to bait for dams, also spook early in am or low light. Our fish in Illinois are over pressured so the jig seems to get me the most bites.
Hey Edwin, I’ve looked into that black spot thing and it is just a pigmentation disorder. Love the videos, great information!
Fantastic information. Great presentation. Very insightful. Thanks.
Thank you!
That looks like so much fun brother! thank you 🙏
It was super reassuring to watch this video! This is how my dad & I fish riprap! We don’t usually catch as many as you did in this video, though, looks like we have some practicing to do (;
Jordan Luciano hope this video helps, good luck out there! 🎣
These are just awesome E! Thanks
Matt Quinlan Thank you Matt!
Love slinging a few lures around the rocks like that.
it's the best!
After watching this video, absolutely can't wait to get back out to Skiatook Lake. Good luck, God Bless.
Good luck John let me know how you do.

Charles Sheid Thank you! 💪
I was there at falcon today for 8 hrs caught nothing... gonna try although info for the next outing... thanks
sorry to hear that - hopefully these tips help. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks again very helpful
Watch out Holloway Reservoir! I'm coming for you with tips from E!
😎 thanks for watching
Good video, Edwin... when do you fish topwater off rip rap rap and how ?
I'd probably throw out a moccasin , size 9 with red trebles, but you know, somebody's gonna be mad when they can't find their shoe.
Its all about changing speed!
Sick video 🔥
Thanks 🔥
My question is how effective would swimbaits be and what would be the best time of year to fish them.
Everything helped 😂!! But how you listen to the fish and made changes and fished a single run spot multiple times and kept changing things up and kept catching fish. Taking notes of special rocks for different water levels.
thank you for watching!
EE, can u advise me what features I should look for in a reel for crankbait fishing or which reel? If it matters i am a bank angler. Thx.
when i see the fish moving by the rip rap at the lower here they are always going clockwise. very rarely counter clockwise.. thoug here it seems to be more specific timing.. like if the crawdads spawned and are all up in it.. or post spawn when all the tiny fresh spawns and fingerlings like to hang out in them.. on the banks.. what would you recommend near the rip rap just wondering.. i usually do weightless texas rigged. i think from boat you can take more advantage of it with more baits. how can they spawn and make a bed in the rip rap.. lol. the bottom edge? where its dirt but on the rocks.. i never seen that. my lake is different though.l. its hard for me to even see beds here and its super clear water. usually they make beds deep.. the upper here is a pain also because in the spawn it lowers they start to make beds then the water raises 20-25 foot because we are at bottom of aqueduct.. but the lower has rip rap too and stays a little more steady with water height but ya its high pressured here so maybe the bass just smarter and make beds deeper where they know fisherman cant see em.. i do get hogs near rip rap post spawn though.. and usually its consistent every year one near there post spawn..
Do more tip videos
When would you NOT fish rip rap? What rip rap areas/conditions/etc. would you AVOID fishing?
What is that gopro chest mount you are wearing?
Edwin how much you charge to teach me how to fish lake Hudson or grand lol
Slight touch. No penalty. Haha. Jk.
What was water temp?
*Also R.I.P. Rap music..
Had to say it.
