Thanks! I hope you have many great days catching fish sir!

Hard to beat hands free thumping, especially for those whom don't have I-pilot. !! Catch a fish, drop hand held thumper, lose location where fish was just caught , reel in , remove and place in well or back in lake. All the while you are not thumping . If fishing alone, talk about frustrating !! Same feeling received when I-pilot was put on boat. How in the heck did I fish without it !
Game changer .

I'll admit I was hold out with the thumping, thought it was low tech hydrowave. But I got me a Bobos last year and now I am sold on it. And I added a on/off remote and couldn't be happier.

Thanks gborg and 44Diesel!
I sometimes start to worry that some customers don’t have as productive days as they expect catching fish using my thumpers then I get feedback like y’all’s and all is well. It is greatly appreciated.

I am going to try Thumping this year, looking to build one first.

I have been a believer in thumping for the last 5-6 years. I will also admit we thump in the summer months as well and it still works great.

I thump all year as well. I also use my splasher when the fish are higher in the water column. I started fishing texoma this summer and fished mostly 40-50 ft deep. I didn’t normally limit on fish but did limit on overs almost every time with fish in the 30” range. I didn’t really catch many box fish until winter.

You wont regret the change. Find the bait in mouths of creeks, start thumping and watch your screen.

Quick question for the more experienced thumpers out there. I went out this weekend and thumped for the first time and I was absolutely amazed how well it worked. My question is how do you determine the cadence of which you need to thump? I have been on the youtube and I hear it fast and sometimes slow. How do you determine when speed and slow the motor?

Usually around 90 thumps per minute is a good speed to start. Some people prefer a little slower and some prefer a little faster. I’ve heard some change it as they fish but I’m usually too busy catching fish to have time to be messing with my thumper speed.

Time on the water will give you the experience needed for learning curve. Confidence will increase via your experiences with positive results . Many times the thump will draw fish to your boat , however, they are not taking what you are serving. Switching to live bait in the middle of dead sticking is not possible . Some of the Gulp live bait substitutes can be successful !

Just got my Thumper in today. Can't wait to try it out in the next few weeks on Fork, Sam Rayburn, and Toledo Bend. Thanks Bobo!

I use slower speeds in shallower water sand to see how the fish respond. I tend to use faster speeds in deeper water. Check our this video and you will see why we change the speed...
