This video is meant to depict the never give up mentality of fishing. You never know when the next cast is going to land you a new personal best. In this video I catch my new personal best large mouth bass on Turtle Creek in the Uptown Dallas Texas area. I had fished for an hour with not even a bite and out of no where this 4.85lbs creek monster smashed my crankbait! This whole video was edited from my Samsung Galexy S7 and is my first real attempt at video editing.

Also I have a strong passion for urban fishing and I run the   Urban Fishing Organization on Facebook that we launched in Dallas last year. If you too have a passion or intrest for Urban Fishing become an Alien Angler by going to the link and asking to join. It's a great community to meet fellow anglers, learn some hidden city gems, and brag a little about your catches. We have our first Meet & Fish of the year this Saturday March 31st at Bethany Lakes in Allen TX at 7:30 am

 

Equipment:
Reel: Zebco Bullet

Rod: 6.ft Berkley Medium

Line: 16 lbs mono

Baits:
Crankbait - Chartreuse/Black (One that landed the bass, found the lure so not sure of brand.

Berkley Chigger Craw - Green Pumpkin (one of my all-time favorite plastics)

Zoom 5in worm - Green Pumpkin Body/Chartreuse Tail

Camera: Go-Pro 3/Samsung Galaxy S7

Editing App: Power Director Pro (Google Play)

It was only 3 minutes. Yes longer than i wish it would have taken. I even say it in the video. At least I put him back and you can see it was ok. Thanks for watching.

I learned how to fish a little upriver from that location.

My grandpa use to take me to TC 35 years ago and we would catch carp and goldfish. I've been bass fishing there for the past 20 years and have caught a lot of 2-5 pound fish.

Congrats on your PB out of a historical landmark in Dallas


The day after catching a lot of fish is still a good day.
