Live Bait BFS Combo Round 1 - Fly Fishing for Bait, Then Freelining BFS Style!

Live Bait BFS Combo Worked!

First round with the live bait BFS Combo where I fish using ultralight baitcasting gear to cast live baitfish with no hardware other than the hook!

Round 1 was a success once I figured out how to hook the bluegill I was using for bait. Lips and dorsal fin were a no go; the fish would head for cover quickly and clobber the hook.

Anal fin worked best. Fish swam towards the surface and away from the bank.  And in the end, a nice Bass took the Bluegill!

More Ultralight Baitcasting (Edited) #Mobile #Fishing #Livestream

Another Round But Cut Short By High Temps!

The edited version of the Mobile Fishing Livestream video where I start fishing a 3D Printed Lure, then switch to a Rooster Tail Inline Spinner.

Key Highlights:

• 3D Lure needed adjustments. Balance and action were not natural. No fish on the 3D Lure.
• Fish were deeper as anticipated given the 100+ Temps. Countdown retrieve using an 8 count seemed to work best.
• Be sure to watch the phone and the livestream status as the heat cut short the livestream!

Unleash Your Ultralight Fishing Passion by Creating Custom Inline Spinners for BFS Fishing!

Custom Inline Spinners for BFS Fishing.

With a few essential tools and materials, you can craft inline spinners that perfectly suit your fishing style and target species. Start by selecting the right wire, beads, and blades. The choice of blade is crucial as it determines the spinner's action in the water. Willow blades provide a tight, fast vibration, while Colorado blades offer a slower, more pronounced thump.

Next, thread your components onto the wire shaft in the order that ensures maximum attraction to the fish. Begin with a clevis to hold the blade, followed by a series of brightly colored beads to catch the fish's eye. You can also add a small brass or tungsten weight to help the spinner sink to the desired depth quickly.

Once you have your spinner assembled, use a pair of pliers to form a secure loop at the end of the wire, ensuring that all components stay in place. Consider tying a feathered treble hook to the end for added movement and visual appeal.

Experiment with different color combinations, blade sizes, and weights to find what works best in your local waters. By customizing your inline spinners, you'll not only increase your chances of landing more fish but also add a personal touch to your fishing gear, making every catch even more rewarding. Happy fishing!

Success Tip: Use Ultralight Lures to Entice Wary Bass to Strike!!

Smaller May Be Better!

Whether you're fishing in clear waters or heavily pressured lakes, ultralight lures can make all the difference.

These small, subtle baits mimic the natural prey that bass are accustomed to, making them more likely to bite even when they are feeling cautious.

Additionally, ultralight lures can be fished with finesse techniques, such as slow retrieves or gentle twitches, to further entice reluctant bass.

Pair your ultralight lure with a light line and a sensitive rod to detect even the slightest nibble.

Remember, patience and precision are key when targeting wary bass. Happy fishing!

Un-Edited version of today's Mobile Fishing Livestream. This round I fish a Z-Man Ned Rig for Bass.

Really like the durability of the plastic TRD Pumpkin Worm.

Fish it like a Senko... cast it, then slowly bump it along bottom, watching the line for Bass picking up the lure and running with it!

Another in the GoPro Mobile Fishing Livestream Series! This one has me at Lake Glenn in Arlington, Texas!

Fishing with an Ultralight Baitcaster Combo - Shimano Scorpion 17 BFS-XG Reel, Bass Pro Shops MicroLite Fiberglass Rod, and 4lbs Stren and using Z-Man Micro Finesse Ned Rig in Green Pumpkin and a 1/15oz Jig Head.

Bait Finesse gear cast the rig easily save for the windy conditions that had me clearing a backlash or two.

Managed several Bass, no Bruisers but lots of fun on the ultralight gear!

Ultralight Baitcasting Lures - Let's Talk Fishing #livestream #fishing #tips

This round I continue to work through streaming hardware issues as I learn to use the system. Gotta little more "learnings" to do!

That said, I managed to show the different lures I use when ultralight baitcasting aka BFS Fishing. They range from inline spinners to small crankbait and other lures as well as a few vintage ones from the past!

Of note are the 1/16oz Rooster Tails that seem to work on local ponds.  Additionally, there was one vintage lure I used to catch a nice one - see video below.

Do check it out!

Try These Trout Fishing Lures 😃 #fishing #ultralightfishing #tips

What is in our tackle box when ultralight baitcasting aka BFS Fishing? Here is a video short detailing what we like!

Of note are the Super Dupers in Copper, Gold, Silver, and Rainbow Trout! 

• Fish them low and slow when the trout are holding deep. 
• If active in the upper part of the water column, then fish them with a steady retrieve.
• Additionally, if no takers on either retrieve, then try a "stop and go retrieve" by reeling in, and then pausing for a second or two. 
• Wait for a strike as Super Duper slowly sinks and flutters on the pause!

Also, Mepps Inline Spinners in Copper, Gold, and Silver hold a spot in our tackle box.

• Fish them with a steady retrieve and when the trout are holding in the upper part of the water column.
• Adjust the retrieve by reeling faster or slower until you get a strike. A "stop and go retrieve" may be called for on occasion. 
• But, typically, it is lure blade color and the trout's location in the water column that matter more.

Rooster Tails in a variety of color combinations are another lure we keep handy.

• Start with the Fire Tiger, White, Yellow, and Black. And then, expand to other color combinations - blade, lure body, dressing.
• Fish them like the Mepps but take the slow retrieve on step further and reel it slower! The Rooster Tail blade will spin at the slowest retrieve which will come in handy when the trout are picky. 
• But, do take note, when sight casting to passing trout schools, a faster retrieve may be called for when on trout breaks away and you see its V wake head toward the lure!

Rainbow Trout Super Duper

Ultralight Baitcasting for Trout on the Blue River in Oklahoma!

Fished the Blue River for trout this round. Opted for Super Dupers and Ultralight Fishing Gear. Three of us fished - two fished with Ultralight Spinning Gear and yours truly fished with Ultralight Baitcasting gear.

Cold front rolled in the night before dropping the temps below freezing. Anticipating trout tending deeper, decided to fish Super Dupers.

Stopped at Scotty's Blue River One Stop to restock on Super Dupers - picked up Rainbow Trout, Silver, and Copper Super Dupers to add to the gold and silver ones I  already had.

After a quick check at the low water crossing, went downriver to fish. After finding the pattern limited out with three trout each!

PS: Yours truly wore hip waders and went a little too deep. Lesson learned where Pants Waders or Chest Waders.  Also, we did have a wading boot blowout after many seasons. Secured the sole with rope to make it last one more trip. It worked... and has now been retired.
