Easy Bass Fishing for ANYONE - Affordable Fishing for Beginners

- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- Is there an easy and affordable way for anyone, especially beginners, to fish for bass? Yes! A wacky rigged stick bait (senko) on a weedless hook is a great place to start. Stick baits can be found at very affordable prices if you look for them on sale. I am using the same Big Bite Baits lures as the last video. They worked so well that it was easy to catch 6 bass over a couple trips. That's 6 largemouth bass for $1.50! I am still using the super affordable $15 Lew's combo I purchased at Walmart. Anyone can get started catching bass with a similar, easy and affordable setup. Yes, even a beginner.
The eternal question. "Do I keep going or do I go to work?" Such a struggle.
Fr bro work is keeping me from the fishing grind
This is all too relatable
The real challenge
Randomly found this video. Watched it. Straight to the point. No over priced rods reels or lures. Simple rig. Subscribed. 👍
Thats what I was going for! 👍😀
Realistic Fishing well done sir!
This guy is 💩
Same here brother
True fisherman style...Im going to make 1 more cast by this grass*proceeds to make several cast* lol
Its an addiction 😂
Mike B 😂😂
@@RealisticFishing "one more cast" is fishing lingo for "I'm going to try this a while longer"
Yeah, like when you are "almost done eating" lol!
@@RealisticFishingwhat state are you fishing in
A bad day fishing beats a good day at work😉
A really bad day fishing I lose $50 in lures.
A good day at work, I make $500. But..
Id still rather lose the lures.. 😅
One more cast at the edge of those weeds.
3 casts later...
I love that you show a realistic POV on fishing. It takes time and patience!
Straight to the point and no blabbing, just like no one else.
Less than 2:30 in and this dude has a fish.
"Finally," he says.
"ALREADY?" I screech.
Me fishing: oh its only been an hour and I caught one.. yay!
I went bass fishing today for 6 hours and got nothing 😂
"Whoo, gotta cut back. I stayed out what, 6 hours? Taking up too much time.....Caught one crappie though so absolutely worth it!"
I mean there is definitely editing the video has been trimed down a bit
Finally someone actually explained everything I needed from the hook and bait to how to actually catch the thing. I'm a beginner and I couldn't understand why you don't use a bobber cause it just felt like my bait is just sinking into lake muck at the bottom, I didn't know you were supposed to shake it like that to mimic a worm in the bottom of the lake.
Blue Gill is great live bait for bass too brother. Hook em in the back and throw em out. Real them in across the surface is nice
THANK YOU!! I’ve caught bass before using live minnows but never could catch anything with lures and plastic worms. Today i used the same wacky rig with weedless hook set up you used here. Caught a 2 pound bass!
Nice. I’d recommend looking for ponds or areas in lakes where little to no people fish. It makes a huge difference in the amount of bass you catch.
I'm new to fishing and I am so happy to find someone that spoke without fishing lingo. Thank you for the help!
I like that you show that fishing is not always easy. Most youtubers only show them catching fish every cast. Realistically that does not happen. I love your videos.
Hands down most relaxing fishing channel on CZcams.
Just tried a new little “secret” spot with my brother and his wife. He mentioned this rig and now I’m sold. Cool video, thank you.
This method actually does work! I didn’t believe my 11 year old son when he was using this method, until he started catching more than me. As soon as I switched I started catching bass as well. He showed me who knew better!
😂
how exactly do you mean "this method"? What specifically? What were you doing before?
I am curious since "this method" is kind of default way to fish
tom jens Wacky Rig is what I meant by “this method”. Truthfully, I can’t remember what I was using at the time. As it was about a year ago, I guess wacky rig is how the fish wanted the bait presented at that moment.
Good to know I'm not the only one who talking sense onto the fish they catch before taking the hook out and releasing.
Have you ever thought about doing anything like a Catch n' Cook type video? And it's great to find a local fisherman CZcams channel! 😁
Maybe some panfish, one of these days.
Thanks man, always been a panfish guy. Tried targeting bass for the first time today in the bluegill pond I take my daughter to. Only had about 10 minutes to fish when we were packing up to leave and 2nd cast I got the biggest fish I've ever caught using a Texas rig green pumpkin senko. Think I may do more bass fishing!
Good luck!
How big? If you had to guess?
Green pumpkin is a old reliable
@@illusion9119 been a long time since then, but I bet it was about a 16" largie. Been bass fishing a lot since then and my PB is 18" and fat. I don't have a scale. Got a 28" pike last fall too, super fun!
I caught a 19 inch 3lbs large mouth couple weeks ago, was my biggest fish, i used a minnow and a number 6 hook.
Me personally i say i got lucky is all lol
I just fished this exact set up 4/15/22 and I caught my biggest bass so far! About 20-21 inch, Around 5-5.3 pounds.
Nice!
@@RealisticFishing thank you for the video!
I have the exact same combo, I use the exact same bait set up. my catches have improved 100%. thank you for telling the truth. you are REALISTIC
Someone's gotta do it 👍
Its good that you show people that you can catch fish with cheap stuff. Ive hooked and caught up to 50 lbs fish on a cheap Walmart rod with a cheap 40-50 lbs test line in salt water
Me and my 2 year old sister have watched Jon b and the googan squad but your the only one she actually sits down and watches
Way to stick it out in Storm, Alex. We've been in a hot drought all summer here in Missouri. So, yesterday mother nature decides to unload on us. Over 12 inches of rain in about 7 hrs.! We're flooded here in St. Charles MO. So many ppl affected. Fish are now coming to me. Lol...stay safe and tight lines.
You are a awesome fisherman who proves cheap fishing stuff could catch fish
It sure can 👍
Dude I love the idea behind your channel. You're a very relatable guy
Thats right!
I know this video is a year old, but I just watched it and really like how you quickly explain how you are fishing the stick bait. Love the videos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Jon 👍
Thanks for the video. Tried it myself this evening and caught 6 bass. Not big but nice to catch something. I used a zip tie to create an o ring equivalent.
Good thinking!
I love when you hook one and just say "Fish!" like its a command. I'm being compelled to go fish now
the fish are waiting!
Wow You're good bro. I ve never had a day like that in my life.

Great Chanel

I use that exact Combo Alex and it’s been really great without any issues at all and landed dozens of nice Fish but mine was way more expensive at 24 dollars lol it’s really smooth.
Anyone else loves when he gets excited when a fish hits
I do!
Realistic Fishing holy shit you replied
I live in Canada on the shores of Lake Erie,and I have had great success with the Keitech Swim bait,Bass love them.There’s few things better then when a fish strikes your bait and makes a run for it.
THANK YOU. For not overthinking everything. I keep finding stupid videos where the dude makes it sound like you need to first understand the 284 different kinds of plastic worms and how to put each one on a hook in 357 different ways and learn how to use that exact jig or whatever in 48 different ways before you can even think about catching ANY fish
Persistence pays off again. I swear you catch 90% of your fish within 5 feet of the bank. Your Academy Sports has way better deals then mine. "Do I keep going or do I go to work?" Always keep going, work isn't going anywhere. Great video
Always keep going 😂
Wish I had a place to fish like that
Thank you for posting this video I’m gonna try it out myself, hope i have good luck lol, going this entire weekend
Hank Parker says it's awesome. 😆👍
Put his name on it 👍
John's Fish Tales 🤴
I'm loving my combo still. Glad the rain finished up today to use it more this weekend. Great vid as always, man.
Thanks, and good luck out there 👍
You too if you get out there. Hopefully this cooler post storm weather will help instead of hurt.
I like your style sir.
Finally a simple, to the point video. Seems easy enough. Maybe I’ll finally catch one.
Same I can’t catch any
Did this exactly setup with my Walmart rod and caught my first fish 🐸👍
AWESOME!
I really like the eagle claw brand when it comes to hooks...they are affordable and easy to find. Plus they are just terminal tackle with a quality that is just fine....don’t get me wrong, Mustad and Gamu are really nice, but when you just need some hooks you can’t beat em.
I especially like this weedless variety 👍
Saw this video a few years ago. I believe it was probably the first video of yours I watched tbh. Ever since then I've loved this channel. I even bought the rod used here lol. And it's my favorite rod.
I love your vids, and the "write ups" you do in the description section. I have several friends that have wanted to get into fishing over the past few years, I always refer them to your channel and just tell em "watch this dude.... '.
Thanks Daddy'O
Keepin' it Realistic on a budget! Wacky rigs has saved some tough days before. Good to always keep one handy!
Definitely one for the arsenal. 👍
Big thanks to you, THANKS!!! Keeping it simple and affordable, (like fishing was when I started fishing.
I comment on every vid and say this but you are quickly becoming my favorite CZcamsr. Dude these videos are a blast to watch and informative. I'm buying that combo tomorrow to go along with my nicer black max set up. Keep em coming buddy
I got mine a few weeks ago. I am not sure if its still available for $15.
Realistic Fishing they didn't even have it unfortunately. Thanks for letting me know.
Wacky rig saved me from a skunk this week. Definitely a bait that should be in everyone's arsenal.
You know it!!
Wacky Rig is so simple, but looks so 'wacky'. Like somebody who doesn't know how to fish rigged it up! But I know a lot of guys swear by them. I don't do a ton of bass fishing, but I'm gonna give this rig a try next time I do.
Team Cramer Fishing
The wacky rig is my go to lure when the bite is tough.
Nice catch today. Alex v. Carp… I remember it like it was yesterday
Love your videos man! I dig the message you send out, that anybody can fish with insexpensive gear. You've inspired me to go find a $15 combo at Walmart even though I have more expensive stuff haha. Keep it up!
Hopefully you find a good one 👍
Never thought about this rig definitely trying it out
I got inspired and went and tried my first wacky rig today. Got the same hooks and some strike king 5" senkos, black with blue sparkle and blue tip, and wouldn't you know about an hour into it, we get our first noon time thunderstorm this year and now I'm back at home waiting it out.
That sounds realistic. Hopefully you can get back out there and catch one 👍
Realistic Fishing Thanks. Still pouring out, will see.
Wacky rigs make for a super, duper, happy fun time!
They are so wacky! 😂
How do you reel it? Like is there a certain method to it’s movement?
zeroskater720 bass like live bait so let it sink a little bit then give your rod a small jerk then repeat. No homo.
Nice bass man. Yea the senko is a must have. Black with blue flake works every time down here in Florida.
Sounds like a good color. 👍
Nice vid! Very educational bc I'm new to bass fishing n still haven't caught a bass just sunfish and cats. I'm gonna try hooking my worms that way instead if through the front now 👍
Thanks for this video buddy. I just caught my first fish ever!!! and with the weedless hook thanks to your advice. Now I can never go back to regular hooks.
That is awesome!
Well done. And can't believe you got a lews speed stick for $15. That's just crazy.
Walmart has great deals sometimes 👍
Heading out for some wacky rig fishing this morning myself. Man that was like calling your shot on that one between the log and dock. Good stuff 👍
Good luck out there!
Came across this oldie but goodie. Good job. Nice bass
Appreciate it!
Great video, I normally fly fish but have a nice bass lake just down the road, and want to try my hand at it, will be bass fishing tomorrow! I’ll be using the wacky rig you used.
Nice little instructional there Alex! Great job with the wacky worm!
Easy Peasy! 👍
Thanks man! Great video. Got a $10 Wally's combo.....float tuber here, doing local lakes only. Keepin' it realistic!!
The very affordable Hank Parker approved Lew's combo kicking ass on them Bass! 👍great video Bro! and I like the price on those Senkos I didn't even know Big Bite made stick baits.. Got me interested in wanting to try that weed gaurd hook too!
Weed guard is the shiz!
Keifers Reel Planet Bass i use em all the time..get em at Dicks 5 pks for $5..they come scented, awesome colors and more durable then yamamotos..favorite 2 colors they make for senkos is black with chartruese and orange flakes..and black with blue and yellow flake..good worms all around..if ur lookin for a meaty fluke..check theirs out too...theyre bigger..longer and wider and super durable..scented as well ;)
Thanks, Jason!! 👍😉 I've been there once but never went in...next time I'm in the big city I'll stop at Dick's Sporting Goods , and take a look around👍
Great vid! This is what I tell every new bass fisherman I meet, you can't go wrong with a senko! Like you said, it's easy and affordable!
Senkos rule, bass drool.
Ween I was
Filleting my bass I found one of those fishing lures in the basses stomach so that lure definitely works
3 bass before work...nice! If I only had one setup for summer and winter, it would be a wicky rig.
👍
Keep up the great vids i find your much more entertaining than most youtube fisherman that have a ton of subs.
Thanks! I try to keep it realistic 👊
Senkos are great. Its my go to lure if the bite is tough.
They work great in the summer 👍
“Where are all the fish?”
Now THAT is realistic lol
I use that rig a lot!! Gotta love the wacky rig!
It really is a great rig 👍
Nice job..pleased to find your channel
Hopefully going to a private pond in my hometown this weekend. I have been anxious to try a wacky rigged senko....never fished it before.
Good luck out there! 👊
Man your channel is doing awesome! I had to take a break from mine but I'm back. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks
So awesome, thank you for showing us how to fish cost effectively and bring in the fish!!
Someone's gotta do it 🤔👍
You are doing a great job at it! Thank you!!
Nice job !! No BS , simple rig and then there’s fish . Thanks for the tip .
Good video as usual. It makes this IPA taste even better.
Cheers. I need one too lets see what I have... Coors Banquet 🍺
Alex .... " THE BASS WHISPERER " TIGHT LINES and SCREAMING DRAGS!!! : ) !
Ha! Budget bass whisperer 😂
Definitely one of the best fishing channels on CZcams. Much respect brother keep on fishing!
Awesome video !
Thanks!
I know this is a older video but iv got the fever for fishing because it's been too long since I tried bass fishing i just about forgot how 😂 ....so no led just the eagle claw brand hook with a big a artificial worm hooked in th middle ..got ya !
Yes, thats it
@@RealisticFishing my brother inlaw wants us to run my boat I think this spring will be perfect
Is this guy still around? Only channel I saw that helped me learn something frfr
Good class thanks
Wacky rigged senko...can't go wrong man
Anyone can do this one 👍
Until you lose the senko
I stumbled upon your video and I bought this combo recently. Thanks for this.
finaly someone who keeps it simple
Would you be opposed to doing a video on types of fishing line, pros and cons of each type, with your recommendations on each?
I don't know enough about them yet to do a fair comparison. I would only be repeating what I have heard, and that's what is wrong with fishing already.
As always, your honesty is appreciated.
If u need to get braid line DONT waste many on big named brands! There are always cheap ones on ebay and aliexpress that do the work
I caught many panfish just for fun but I've always been curious as to how to catch bigger fish ...like bass , carp, and catfish ...I been using a 10$ rod and 3$ reel from wish
An easy catfishing setup would be splitshot weight size 5 about a foot or so up from a 1/0 baitholder hook and a hotdog chunk...preferably beef they stay on the hook better, but bar s brand will do. That cheap combo may be strained hard, just work the drag. GLand tight lines
I been using those eagle claws for a while they work so well
👍
I subscribed. straight to the point and no bs.
The way he just casually said “fish” and proceeded to yank the rod up is killing me
Thank you very much for sharing. Liked and subscribed. I fished a lot with my dad and I am now able to show my son more and more with fishing. I’m getting into bass fishing because I like the experience of changing rigs and techniques and not just have worms with a bobber in a small pond. Any tips would be great. Thanks for sharing.
No I just see majority the fish u catch are that size. I live in Montgomery, AL I like your show man👍
Thanks. My PB is 4.75 from this lake. Not too bad 😀
Nice job bud!!! Keeping it reel.!!!!
Another good video dude! Thanks for knowledge and entertainment!
Thanks for watching Daniel!
Love this channel......simple and straight forward
Thanks for sharing look great video
Thanks PcC!
I jus random landed here and my bait be different lol welll good luck buddy enjoy fishing and I am off to take my grandkids on adventure that includes fishing and nature and flower bandit lol day !
Keep up the great videos, really enjoy watching them.
Thanks 2BFishn!
thanks good choice of line I use fire line crystal it's pretty bad ass
Great catches today 👍👍 wacky rigs my favorite worm setup 😊👌👌
Nice video senkos are my go to bait. I don't think it matters what brand senkos use, they all catch fish!
If thats true, I'll buy the cheap ones 👍
