  • BEWARE OF BOATERS!!! On this trip, I had a wake up call! One that made me realize that boaters may not always be able to see you, and that they aren’t thinking about who’s in a blind spot! While crappie fishing and slaying slabs, I had two boats come flying past well within 30 to 40ft of me! The first boat didn’t realize that I was sitting right near the bank in an area that was blind to him, but the second boat knew there was a possibility that I was there as he passed me at an idle speed just minutes prior. Startling situation, but one to learn from, mostly for the boaters hugging a bank!
    Thankfully, I didn’t get hurt and I was able to keep fishing! And after thinking it was going to be a tough day, I ended up with a nice batch of fish!
    Hope you enjoy the content, and THANKS FOR WATCHING!!!!!

    This was really cool to watch I’ve been fishing maybe a dozen times in my life and luckily catch about at least one fish each time.

      Thank you! Really appreciate it! In some of my previous videos, I do have the livescope up, but my unit has been having some issues with that lately. I’ll try to get it fixed and try again! Thanks for the sub and the kind words! Tight lines 🎣🎣🎣

    Nice box of crappie there Will. I see the orange in the dream sickle. What are the other colors? Steve doesn’t name his jigs. Everyone else does. He goes by size, color, profile, and tail type.

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před 3 měsíci +3

      Thanks! For me, I like that orange dream sickle stinger tail a lot when the water is muddy (favorite one), along with the white hot split tail. And of course I like the magic bait stinger tail but the clear body with chartreuse flake and black tail (didn’t name it) works a little better in muddy water imo.

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před 3 měsíci +3

      1.75” stingers and 2” split tail!

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před 3 měsíci +2

      I have, but it’s like every other spot on the lake. Sometimes they are there, sometimes they aren’t! I’m sure you know how that goes!!!

      Yes sir, and it’s even called orange dream sickle lol! Great bait for muddy water in my opinion! And all I can do is keep my head on a swivel and watch out for those boaters. Thanks Mr. Sims!

  • @Fishnthangz
    @Fishnthangz Před 3 měsíci +1

    I can't stand those type of people. Everyone has a right to enjoy the lake, but have a lil common courtesy. Woohoo people is what I call them. Jet ski got within casting distance to me, blew up my spot quick smh...Good job pulling in some slabs!

    The north side fishing pond behind the Academy in Porter was a disaster. I decided to not put up the video, and didn't want to get laughed at. It looks like the rain flooded out the 5 acre pond and washed the fish out into the creeks. Looks like fishing on Lake Conroe, is ph.....&%#ed. Will is right, have to hit up the lakes up north, to get fish. Lake Conroe, wont be ready of clean for 2 or 3 more
    months, by that time its too hot.

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Gonna have to hit it early and be done early. I won’t be on the water all day once this heat cranks up

    • @TrinityRiverTxExcursion-he6sx
      @TrinityRiverTxExcursion-he6sx Před 3 měsíci +1

      I figured that was the situation. By the time the water gets settled and the salinity adjust, the fish will start to show up again, but most of the time they head to deeper water and they have to follow the food source. According to Keith, he says you have to head up north and hit those lakes.

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I’m no expert in that area to be honest, I just try to hunt them down in the waters that don’t get as affected by rain. All good tho!

  • @TrinityRiverTxExcursion-he6sx
    @TrinityRiverTxExcursion-he6sx Před 3 měsíci +1

    Yo Will, me and my Homeies, Sorry youtubers, i had to correct my grammar. Vince, Keith and i will be fishing in Porter, Tx, this Sunday, he knows some public ponds, excellent for land fishing. My boat is not ready yet, have to get that leak fixed. Everyone is busy working, and it's getting too hot, may have to rap it up till fall. Talking about calls, Trinity river, the Riverstone launch site. Be careful is anyone has not gone on that one. Boaters are very inconsiderate and reckless and dangerous. People have accidents so much on that river that Boat Us, since i have a membership with that towing carrier, that they have to terminate doing business on that river, it's too dangerous for even the rescue boaters, that i am better off calling the game wards. Being and insurance agent, this is what i do for a living, so naturally, my Bass Boat is 100% insured. But Texas from what i have learned does not make it mandatory to insure your boat for water, its personal choice.

    To me the expensive garmin takes the fun outta fishing

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před měsícem +1

      Are you speaking from experience? Because I’ve had the cheap garmin with traditional sonar, the mid tier Echomap, and the one you see in this vid. The one you see here is hands down, way more fun to use.

    What are your complete specs of your automated driverless old town sportsman autopilot? Very interested in buying one here in North Carolina!

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před měsícem +1

      I have the 136 Auto Pilot, which is 13.5”. It comes with the trolling motor and I added the 403c Torqeedo motor for redundant motor power. Has two 100ah lithium ion batteries which one powers the trolling motor and the other powers my lights and electronics. I have a 10” fish finder mounted on a Ram long arm and 2” ram ball and forward facing live sonar system. Hope this helps!

    You know it would be even easier if you just drain the lake and then you could just go in there and pick them up cheater. It’s not even fishing no more man.

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před měsícem +1

      Let me know how you do when you get a chance to use it independently. And remember every lake is different Wingnutt

  • @Wingnutt75
    @Wingnutt75 Před měsícem

    All that equipment and you’re still complaining these fish are tough to catch

    • @fishingbythenumbers
      @fishingbythenumbers  Před měsícem +1

      Yes many people struggle on this lake which is why there aren’t many guides who fish it…mostly locals
