This video is what your name is Informative nothing but grade A+ information. Nick you are one hell of a teacher continue success. How you are not at 100k subs is mind boggling.
jerzcnate thank you! I don't run Adsense like the other channels so they don't notify as many of my subscribers. So in return I don't show up as often in suggested videos.
Dude I can't tell you how much I appreciate this video, I just moved to Oklahoma from North Idaho and my goal is to catch the species of bass in which I could not up there. Spotted is the next one on my list. Tyvm subbed and look for to watch your collection
@@InformativeFisherman oh I certainly will, I'm excited to catch a spotted bass. Watching you catch all of them got me so pumped up I feel like Iconelli catching my first fish of the day. Thank you for the reso
Thank you so much. I live in NW Ga but most of my fishing life was Arkansas etc.. Large mouths. Spots are a totally different animal. I catch only large mouths in lakes in which the ratio is 1 large mouth per 10 spots We need more info like this.. .
Thank you for this video! I fish Smith Lake in Alabama. Spots are pretty dominant. Jerk baits, sexy Shad chatterbaits and spinnerbaits, and green pumpkin Senkos with the bottom dipped in chartreuse spike it are my go-to’s.
Can you explain why you cast shallow to deep in winter months? In case big one is up shallow sunning itself getting warm?? Also an on the water finding spotted bass with electronics vid would be rad! Thanks
Another super video Nick! I'm new over here in the east (NC), fishing primarily Spots in Lake Norman. This video was priceless, and I'm sure I will have better success from watching it. I don't think we have many 5# footballs like you were catching on Commanche :-) Thanks!
Very useful video. My home lake is full of spotted bass. I would like to know more about their spawning habits. I'm sure they spawn on hard bottoms. My biggest question is do they spawn more on the main lake or do they move back in creeks and coves, and do they spawn on flats? I'd just like to know what to look for on lake maps when searching them out.
Bass fishing in your city,from main lakes to your mainstreams..lost ur lures and ur sad you didnt retrieve em...and ur sad you didn't retrieve..! THAT LURE IS A REAL BASS PLEASER let it goooo. Nice vid Preciate the tips.
nice video thanks for all the info.love your YTV show I'm new to bass fishing I live in napa ca. and we only have a few lakes that are close to me... are you fishing any tournaments this year?
What lakes do you fish? Lake Sonoma and Lake Berryessa are pretty close to you I think. Really want to get up to Berryessa soon, never been. Sonoma is a GREAT lake...but I just seen pics of how high the water is, not sure how that's effected it.
www.thekelster.com I haven't fished any of those lakes yet I've only fished lake Hennessy. but I plan on fishing clear lake, and Berryessa too and any other lakes near me.. I don't own a boat I just fish off the shore but I am planning to buy a hobie kayak this spring...
I've never been to Berryessa, but hear great things about it. If you end up getting a kayak, and head up to Clear Lake check out Clear Lake Vista Resort on Soda Bay road.....they are located in the middle of Soda Bay and there is some killer fishing within reach when your in a kayak.
B&Q Fishing Outdoors they noticed that the fish were biting something specific multiple times. It was a pattern not a one time lucky catch. It's been a year since this comment so I'm sure you figure it out by now but.. tight lines. :)
Hay when are you coming back to Lodi I want to take you to a lake I fish at I pull some decent largemouth out of there. nice video! how do I contact you?
InformativeFisherman I know I was the guy that the restraint across the street from lodi yelled at and I wana take you to one of my lakes "mallerd lake". hit me up on Facebook "Jeromy casity"
SpraYzi A smally crossed with a spot is called a "meanmouth" , they can all successfully breed under controlled situations but due to the fact that they spawn in different areas typically they will stick to their own species
ok. i thought so i fish a on west coast called Lake Nacimiento. You mainly only catch small spots with your occasional small large mouth. I've caught 3-4lb fish out there, which is huge for that lake, that look like large mouth but they have the teeth on there tongue like spots do. i assumed they were hybrids.
DEAD GIVEAWAY! I knew something was wrong when a pretty little spot ran into a fisherman arms, dead giveaway! We eat ribs with these dude but we didn't have a clue.

Beautiful fish! Always enjoy watching your video's and appreciate your energy & enthusiasm for fishing!
Thanks bro!
Thank you so much. I live in NW Ga but most of my fishing life was Arkansas etc.. Large mouths. Spots are a totally different animal. I catch only large mouths in lakes in which the ratio is 1 large mouth per 10 spots We need more info like this..
.
John Morgan glad I could help John, thanks for watching!
This is helpful. I live right next to camanche and having a really hard time catching something lately.
Wow, that was a very informative video (no pun intended). I really enjoyed it!

nice vid Nick, headed to Shasta soon so a leg up on the spots is what i need!
Good Chanel for fishing , love it
Absolutely awesome video. Very informative, and detailed. Thanks for taking the time to make a video like this.
Been waiting for someone to make this video.. thanks!

Great episode and information!!!
what a great video,loved it. I saw the video you did on sanpablo reservoir I live about 10 minutes away from there thinking of going in febuary
It's an awesome lake! Thanks!
Great Video Nick! Really helpful tips for my next tournament I'm having at Flat Pine lake🎣
Great Video. Thanks Nick.
very helpful. little bit different here down south, but the same rules apply. thanks!
You should do a Folsom Lake episode.
Another super video Nick! I'm new over here in the east (NC), fishing primarily Spots in Lake Norman. This video was priceless, and I'm sure I will have better success from watching it. I don't think we have many 5# footballs like you were catching on Commanche :-) Thanks!
There are a few 3-4lbers, at least in Lake Wylie and Mountain Island. Norman is one I've only tackled on a few outings and I'm rarely successful
Thanks for the video, want to come out new malone next week
Great video! Thanks for all the info
they fight harder pound for pound than largies right
Yea
dude thank you so much ur right about the other videos man also thanks for going so in depth too
Thanks Noah!
I have become a big fan of spotted and gotta say I’m hooked on them (pun intended) West Point Lake in GA is loaded with them.
This is legit 💪
Great tips
Nick, do you ever hit up McClure, Melones, or Don Pedro? Can't recall seeing any videos of you on those bodies of water.
Nice video and beat!!!
Crystal Aaron thanks!

That was awesome
Those Bama spots came from my local lake, Lewis Smith lake!

Christian Turne Hahahahaha!!! Clean!
I caught a 4 pound spot once and was angry because I thought that I had a 6-7 pound largemouth. Was still a fun fish to catch.
No joke we had a 2 pound spot pull our 17 foot aluminum boat at least 20 yards and it wasn't the wind it was flat calm in the mouth of a cove
nice video thanks for all the info.love your YTV show I'm new to bass fishing I live in napa ca. and we only have a few lakes that are close to me... are you fishing any tournaments this year?

www.thekelster.com Rite on thanks for the info.when I do make it there I will let you know how the fishing went..
I live in Georgia and I have always wanted to catch a spot
Ga Bassin fish lake lanier it's full of them.
I catch mostly spots in the winter too I've noticed that a lot in Stockton
More fun too!
Great vid. Would you be able to do one for Smallies?
Thanks John, it's in the works!
InformativeFisherman I can't wait. I'll be on the look out for it. Thanks again
During spawn, will they tend to move away from current or stay near the main river?
What like should I throw on a A rig
What ball jig and worm where u using
THHHHHAAAANNNNNKKK
YYYYOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how did you get started fishing?
Black Beatles nice
Could you go to Scotts flat lake in Northern California. Thanks! Great vid by the way!
CaliFishing I will look it up, thanks!
InformativeFisherman there is some good small mouth action there!
hey Nick, what does it mean when people say they developed a pattern while bass fishing?
B&Q Fishing Outdoors they noticed that the fish were biting something specific multiple times. It was a pattern not a one time lucky catch. It's been a year since this comment so I'm sure you figure it out by now but.. tight lines. :)
Mercy, 6 commercials at the first third break, i do like this guy and he gives great info, but that is almost abusive.
do you still love to catch carp from those old vids
Yeah I do!
at the minute 8:40 there is an app on your phone i signed up for it but how do i use the app the way you got it?
It should be under map options
hahah that girl she's a real crowd pleaser
These fish are more fun to catch than large mouth, they fight more
Hay when are you coming back to Lodi I want to take you to a lake I fish at I pull some decent largemouth out of there. nice video! how do I contact you?
sk8andslick I basically live in Lodi, what's up?
InformativeFisherman I know I was the guy that the restraint across the street from lodi yelled at and I wana take you to one of my lakes "mallerd lake". hit me up on Facebook "Jeromy casity"
Caught 2 3.5 pounders on Sunday . They fight like a demon but NEVER jump. You know you have a spot if it stays deep on the fight
What rod do u use
The baitcasting setup for my A-Rig was an iRod light flippin' stick, the spinning was an iRod spin
I caught a 6lb spotted bass at Folsom Lake is that a record?
Not sure, have you tried looking it up?
I did some research and there is hardly any information for spotted bass on the web but more to do with largemouth.
do large mouth breed with spotted bass?
SpraYzi yes, only anally
SpraYzi A smally crossed with a spot is called a "meanmouth" , they can all successfully breed under controlled situations but due to the fact that they spawn in different areas typically they will stick to their own species
Yes on rare occasion
ok. i thought so i fish a on west coast called Lake Nacimiento. You mainly only catch small spots with your occasional small large mouth. I've caught 3-4lb fish out there, which is huge for that lake, that look like large mouth but they have the teeth on there tongue like spots do. i assumed they were hybrids.
DEAD GIVEAWAY! I knew something was wrong when a pretty little spot ran into a fisherman arms, dead giveaway! We eat ribs with these dude but we didn't have a clue.

2!
I can’t catch a spot on a jig to save my life
nice vid Nick, headed to Shasta soon so a leg up on the spots is what i need!
