Next video will be the Neighbor Darrell's best moments from last year 👊🏻
Hell ya
Anything NEW that would have seen or heard of LOJO . For bait scent's for lures ect: So far this year in 2024 ?🐟🐠🎣🎣🚤🌞
COOL BEANS 👍👍👍👍👍
I'm excited for that
Hey man we're all still waiting for you to drop a video with the lews Reactor baitcast Walmart combo. I think it would be awesome seeing it compared to the Abu Garcia Vengeance baitcast Walmart combo
There’s literally nothing better than having a neighbor Darrell! Don’t ever take that for granted as I can say from experience !!
that excursion rod caught me a 6lb bass, I kinda like it as a cheap toss in the truck rod
1:08 I love how lojo enters the exit way and the bystander exits through the enter way 😂😂
most pfluegers are really good reels to get. Great video, keep it up.
I love the pocket combo, my gf pulled up a two pounder bank fishing while I was skunked. The extremely low gear ratio helps with not over working baits and it catches a lot while floating down the river in a tube. If my 5’6” ultra light is too cumbersome for a brush pile near the bank, I can sneak with it and get a line in the water I otherwise wouldn’t have. I put better line on it but it really shines with 2 lb so I went back. On lunch break I can go with a Fanny pack or a single tackle box and have a good time. Plus the hiker stop and ask, “is that it? That’s the whole pole?” Yup, Walmart $20 and alot of fun.
I’m not sure but I’m thinking Brad caught a 9.2 bass on that Scum Frog!! However, at L&M they bite anything!! Great vid brother!! Can’t wait to see you in March
I can’t wait either!!
It’s a great day when LOJO posts
Thank you my friend
Got a couple the bait cast combo's for step son. Changed line n they been fine for going on 3 yrs. Actually bought couple more for myself. Use a lot cranking and been just fine. If you don't like it just send it my way 👍🏻. Thx cool video keep them up
That is awesome!
That baite caster combo is good.Its just the line it's that good.
That what I was going to say as well
Brother as a vet I need some advice to succeed like you! Love what you do! So happy for you.
Post all the same shit and boohoo vet. You’ll get likes same as lojo
Brother I’m a work in progress myself 😅 but I appreciate the kind words. My advice is to work hard at your job and to work harder at your personal life and relationships. All my career aspirations are superseded by my desire be a better husband and father and friend 👊🏼
Remember: in basic or if applicable R.I.P school when you were convinced your head or legs were going to fall off but you managed to make it that 1 more step? Then another step and another? Yeah well you did it once , get off your ass and get moving! Stop with the excuses and give yourself that step
Being stuck in New England where we don't have warm enough water for anything between november to march. These videos are great to keep up with methods and eases the excitement to wet a line. Thank you for making winter tolerable for a fishing addict like myself🤣💚 Team Googan all the way🙌
Ive been watching this channel since like 2017 and watched most of your videos. Its wild how much you have grown as an influencer and a person. Your content is always great!
I love this video haha.
I got that Ozark Trail baitcaster combo a year ago for $20 on clearance and I have absolutely cleaned up smallies on squarebills last summer. Planning on using it again this season for my KVD1.5s
I have a few of those shakespears rods for about a year and so far nothing has went wrong with them. And I have a few of the Ozark trails combos and the same thing so far nothing has happen yet. Those are just mainly a starter combo for learning how to use a bait caster.
Very true
I feel horrible for anyone who has to learn on such a bad reel tbh, it ruins the experience, you can get a cheap rod and a used lews speed spool for 50$ or less if you actually want whoever your teaching to continue on in the sport.
All the walmart gear has to be taken with a grain of salt. If you take the lures to lakes that are not heavily pressured they will work. You take them to your local park pond, every fish has seen them 100 times in a month. I use to buy a lot of inexpensive gear at walmart that I give to kids for fishing clinics. I always have to think if the gear will help the kids want to fish more or discourage them. I started spending a little more money now for some of the more intermediate lures. Not much can beat the Zebco Slingshot combo for the price.
Been waiting for another one to drop 🤙😎 thanks LOJO
Thank YOU for being here 👊🏼👊🏼
That alarm scared me so bad
Bro we legit thought they were coming for us 😅
I really enjoyed you putting the beat down on these combos that's the crappy stuff along of us guys have to use. Not a carado dc but. You definitely put them to work. Great content lojo
“I 75% sure that’s a hog”
Neighbor Darrell…75% of the time he’s right every time
love to darrells family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥹🥹🕊🕊🕊🕊
Has something happened to Darrell?
Need me a neighbor Darrel in my life. Love the way he talks and his mannerisms. Seems like a real chill and funny dude
Bought my nephew the steinhauser micro pocket rod and reel 2yrs ago and it is still going strong. He has had no issues or complaints about it. If you would have not spoiled yourself with that one it would have gotten a better result. But I agree with everything else about those rods and reels you get what you pay for.
Can’t wait!!!!! Love what you do man!!!
im new to trying to bass fish. ive been subscribed for about 4 years now. i have been binge watching so many videos trying to understand how to rig and use the different lures. i love your videos so much. the biggest problem for me is trying to get the money for a decent setup. i dont want to go with cheap stuff as shown here lol. keep up the amazing videos.
I would recommend a kastking centron lite if you are still looking for
LUV the camping videos. temu also has huge tent house things, they look interesting.
Been using that white rod and white spinning reel for over a year, has been doing good to me bass fishing. Only got 2-3 lb bass on drop shots and weightless
Love you vids man keep it up
Love the video would love to see some content from that swap by the pond maybe get a swamp buggy !!!😂
My 13-year old got that Ozark Trail one to start with and got it tuned in. No issues, no backlashes...just one point of his star drag broke, but it was his fault.
Great video, keep up the good work!
That Ozark Trail Bait Caster is great. I have had one for three years and it still works like new. And numerous friends of mine also own one and love it.
I've got the Shakespeare excursion, I was out with buddies fishing and forgot my rod so I just went and got a cheap one expecting it to last just the day, but I've been catching little catfish with it since and have had no problems with it
Hi lojo love your videos i have recently lost some big fish and want to find a better and stronger knot and i was also thinking that maybe you could do a video on knots like using the stromgest knot vs the worst knot feel like it would be a good challenge
I have two of those Ozark trail baitcasters. They were both given to me. They make a lot of noise while casting.
I bought that bait caster combo took it back and just went and ordered an SLX DC. I’ve not regretted it once!
I literally have and use that blue and white Pflueger reel and the blue and white Shakespeare excursion rod lmao I haven't had an issue with it so far. Nothing broken, nothing bent.
usually those tiny rods like that are for ice fishing where you only drop straight down though you could also use them at like a dock in a marina where the bluegills are stacked and just drop straight down on em. i bought one of those cheap reels there before they do work but probably only for like a few months of hardcore fishing. but it will catch fish. even some of the better reels only last so long also. its best to learn how to keep them maintained anyways and to learn on cheap stuff is better. so then when you do get nicer reels you can always keep them maintained once they start acting up.
i bought a Abu Garcia baitcaster rod/reel combo, was like $80 and i bought it just for a back up bc i needed an extra and it ended up becoming one of my main poles. got it from walmart and haven’t had any issues with it whatsoever
Fishing hack: 1$ buzz baits + 2$ pack of beads. Bend out wire and remove blade, add bead on front and back of blade bend wire back to 90° spins like a dream. I’d rather lose 1$ bait over 6-20$ each
The Shakespeare excursion baitcasting rod is a beast. It was my first baitcasting rod and I still have I and use it
I love these videos!!
Next Can you do the cheapest but highest rated bait casters at Walmart/bass pro
Controversial opinion, i rather have a bad baitcaster than a bad spinning reel. At least a baitcaster has pretty standard parts.
Not smooth anymore? Get new bearings, heck get ceramic bearings and it will be even better. You get the point
Wish I could’ve gotten my hands on that winter tackle box from the last video, congrats to the winner ❤️❤️
I use ozark trails ultra light combo for river fishing for hybrids and have had no issue with them at all. I also used the $1 dollar buzz baits and spinners since I was a kid, now the rubber bands they use for the skirt aren’t the best but just replace the band and you’re good to go. I also have the same rod that you got and the only time it snapped was when I caught a 20lb drum on it while river fishing. literally most of my equipment is what you just bought and haven’t had any real bad experiences with them.
Good Video.
I think it's time to build you a couple raised platforms at the pond or an upgraded floating dock.
Maybe review some of the bobers that can map a pond?
Do some educating on how to tie up some different rigs.
How and ware to throw..
Lots of fishing channels doing the same kind of things.
Definitely would love to see one of you Start throwing more of the learning aspect in there along with the entertainment.
Keep Grinding LoJo!!!!
Luckily I have a Bass Pro Shop in the next town and it's just one bus away. And there are pizza places on either side of the store.
Great video man
Loved it! It was a fun time
you always get the good fishing stuff .. funny walmart ..bass pro here we go..
Great to see you trying out the cheaper stuff just to show what you get. So much of Walmart tackle is stuff you only buy once and avoid any more in the future.
Thanx for ur uploads unlike other you tubers u grind tru difficult fishing condition showing u care about ur audiences and also u don't just make stupid videos u put real effort in hats of to u keep it up o yea I'm all the way from south Africa it 3am here and worth being up watching u
U should make a video of clearing the trail to the swamp again. Get it ready for spring. Plus it will make it easier if u catch small bass and want to relocate them, ya know.
I have the excursion spinning rod. I used it for a ned rig rod. Probably caught 50-70 bass on it and had no issues other than one of the inserts on the line guides coming out.
The spinner at 11:19 is one that I actually buy a bit and rate kinda nicely. It's not the best thing, that fluff will wear off quick, but on my ultralight rig I managed to catch some nice sized fish off it. The spinner will get caught sometimes on that front bar, but once you get it free and make sure it goes up and down the shaft freely it should spin relatively alright. Not a panther martin, but that bluegill will slam the piss out of it sometimes.
A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work.
Always remember that.
I remember when those xcursion rods were around $14. They used to be gray. My buddy and I always kept a couple in the boat. They had decent sensitivity and balance for the price but the guides kind of sucked. Most people snap rods because they don't know how to use them properly. But for $14 we would have just bought another.
Let's go lojo. Love the channel man
I’ve had that pole for 2 years, caught a lot of big bass & never had a problem with it
I have that excursion rod and it’s ok. Lojo is right at that price point you kinda have to know what you are getting yourself into
I have that ozark trail baitcast combo. Still use the rod, and I still have the reel as a backup because it does what I need when I need it. Immediately replaced the line.
It also has caught me a number of fish with no problems at all.
You should do a video on reviewing everything about the Krazy fishing rods and reels
That alarm at Walmart showed me why I shouldn’t have my volume up watching lojo😂
Just want to say thanks for the great content. Keep it up. But I also have a question. Have you got a new drone? As your drone footage looks so much clearer than before. If so, what is it? As the footage quality is incredible.
Best thing is my local dollar store had googan baits last year got some jig heads, Jr banger and some soft plastics last year and I'm in canada so they were half or less than what it takes to order googan baits
I bought the ozark combo a while back and immediately split it up. I purposed the rod for crappie and put the reel on a better rod to pitch jigs. I have no issues. 😂
I have that Pfluger on a cheap 2 dollar pole I got at a garage sale. Some old 60s solid fiberglass pole that is somehow whippy and stiff. Just keep it as a trunk reel in case I drive past somewhere cool. Never had an issue.
That baby spin caster would be fun for tiny bluegill.
The lures... i can see them all working in certain instances.
I have that Shakespeare rod &20 caught a PB Brown trout on it. I use for finesse fishing no issues 🤙🤙🤙
Ps the Brown trout was 10lbs using a jerk bait 🤙🤙
Love watching your content lojo!! I've had the ozark trail baitcaster combo and I have to say it held up well for the fist year it handled panfish,bass and a 8lb northen pike without breaking, it did snap one day right next to the threads when I was setting the hook on a 1 lb bass in its defense I did set it aggressive and 10 mins later I snapped a lews rod it was also 38 degrees sooo....
Anytime you buy a rod from wal mart you better inspect it top to bottom. Half of the tips are already broken or hanging on barely. I got the Ozark Trail combo for the price to keep in my office since there is a private lake at my work. The reel is garbage. Replaced with a semi decent reel from KastKing and for a quick trip to the lake at lunch it does the job. Is it a Shimano Curado? No but for a combo under $80 total to keep on hand and throw around it gets the job done. The rod is halfway decent and the length is perfect for pond or small lake casting. Pairing with the Kast King that’s a 8.3:1 makes it perfect for buzzbaits, Texas rig, and lipless. I’ve caught enough 1-2lb bass on it for a fun fight. But yes, the reel is garbage. Thanks for the video LOJO! Not everyone has the $400 combo budget!
I have the Shakespeare excursion casting rod and I've caught 8-9lb largemouth and still works amazing
I don't have that model pflueger. I do however have the presidential series and I absolutely love them . I have 6 different ones in various sizes and I've never had any issues.
I would like to see someone do a kastking vs piscifun reels and rods great review and video
I have that same pflueger reel and I love it.
It would be cool to see a video of store baits vs hand made soft plastics! Just so happens i own a custom tackle business 🤷♂️
Use the excursion rod on the UK for saltwater lure fishing and never had any issues with fish up to 8lb
@T.ele.g.ram.lojofishing2 love the content got hooked on your channel when on holiday in Florida.
Now watching every episode over here in the UK
The proficiency combo is the bomb
I’ve had my EXCURSION rod for a year now and I got a 5# and several 3# and it keeps giving me enjoyable days at the pond
I have that excursion rod. Use it for Ned rigs and drop shots. Works great for me.
I actually bought the ozark trail baitcaster a few years back when I was just starting with baitcasters, I had 12 lb mono on it and caught a lot of big fish, learned to skip, and threw all sorts of lures on it. Tbh I have 500 dollar combos now and still like that one.
The buzzbaits were trash, hardly stayed afloat at all, even when reeling. The spinner is pretty good, caught a lot of trout on it.
So that buzz bait is bad, but it can be modified. I rebend it so that the prop is facing the right direction and usually rip off that skirt. I use them in my local canal system that has ALOT of stuff to get snagged on. I use these cheap ones there and throw them in the nastiest places I can find. If I lose it, no big deal
I have the ozark baitcaster combo and its actually pretty good except when i first casted it the line got stuck inside reel but if you put some 17 pound line on it, it aint so bad. Ive caught a lot of fish on it while using a crank bait
that lil jerkbait u had is killer on some green lights
We don’t have any Ozark trail fishing gear near me in MA
I would suggest having the passenger hold the buzzbait out of the truck window on the way back home to kinda wear the hole in the "buzz" part of the bait
That tackle box combo teaches the best lesson in fishing. Be careful on what you spend your money on.
The inline spinners work the sane as rooster tails. I use them alot and depending on how fast the water is you wanna go lighter if its fast
I have 4 of those excursion rods and not a single issue. Other than jamming the tips in a car door which broke it. I caught my 7lb pb on the rod and it held up amazing
Thanks for the draft kings promo lojo your the best
Great video yall .. Shout out to neighbor Darrell … I buy the little Ozark trail lures they are great for fishing for Crappie with them .. But I buy a lot of the cheap $1 lures too cause that way when my buddies go fishing with me and start borrowing / losing my good lures I make them start using the cheap ones .. 👍👍👍👍Stay safe and Keep’em coming
I have been using Pflueger spinning reels for years and I LOVE them. Get a President or higher model though. I prefer the President XT in a 30 size for finesse style and pan fish.
i bought the orange shakespeare reel because my old one broke when i was going fishing with my cousin and it’s worked pretty well for me it casts great and reels fine j haven’t had any problems
I bought a Pinnacle bait caster at Walmart about 10ish plus years ago for $50 ish used it on a frog rod. Now have it on a Googan black muscle rod. Cleaned,oiled and greased once never a problem works like the day I purchased it 🤙🤙🤙🤙
Nice setup!!
I use that exact Shakespeare excursion rod. And catch 15 plus pound cats on it. I've had it two years. And it has prolly 30 plus 15 plus pounders, and 5 of those over 30. Among all the other fish I've caught on it.
I the Ozark in-line spinners, 50% of the time they work I always test them at home before so I can take the bad ones back. The ready2fish brand ones work well and are $1. Few cent more
I caught my first bass ever on that white beetle spin😂 haven’t used it since
Rooster tails and mepps will also not spin if you get pond scum in them. Im bet thats what happened with that one too. Its built on the same everything as a rooster tail but cheaper.
I got two of those shake spears and haven’t had a problem out of them I’ve had them about 3 or 4 yrs maybe
If your ever trying to do any creek videos in Dothan I can tell you some bridges that lead to good spots
