hey guys welcome back to wendell fishing darren here and today i'm going to share with you
four sight fishing tricks of the trade to help you with your bed fishing game now here's the
thing i probably could have spread this lettuce out uh to 10 but i wanted to focus on four
to really get to the point and as a bonus at the end of this video i'm gonna be sharing some
of the top lures that you can use when you're bed fishing if you love kayak fishing like i do
this is my native slayer propel ten my number one video on my channel right now is the walkthrough
on it i've done a review on it check those out up in the cards um but if you love that i have
videos that drop every thursday at 11 45 eastern so hit that sub and bell notification and i'll
keep these coming all right let's hop into the top four sight fishing tricks of the trade starting
with number one get some quality optics the great thing about sunglasses is for about 40 50 even 60
dollars you can get yourself a really nice pair if you have a pair of sunglasses and you're wondering
are they polarized there's a really simple trick they can do to figure it out all you got to take
your glasses put it between a computer screen or your phone turn it 90 degrees if your lenses go
black then you my friend have a pair of polarized sunglasses congratulations here's the thing they
may not be quality you see reflective eyewear is designed to reduce glare from bright or reflective
surfaces so you can imagine when you're fishing out on the water that's why it's really important
to have a pair of polarized glasses non-polarized glasses are fine as well to help filter out the
light however they don't have the filter ability i'm not suggesting that you run out and buy a 250
pair of coasters but i do think there is a noticeable difference between the five dollar
yum brand that you get at walmart and the price points of the sunglasses that you see between 50
and 60 so you've been fishing for a long time you might be here like oh yeah you got different lens
colors for different water clarities well i'm here to tell you that's not true you see the lens color
affects the wavelengths of light allowed through that lens tints so it has really not a whole lot
to do with the water color or the turbidity of the water but more has to do with what is allowed
to come through that particular color of lens so if you have a choice choose the copper lens
here's why since copper lenses block blue light this allows you to be able to focus a
whole lot better on an object and this is true for all watercolors get yourself some quality
optics alright number two keep a low profile what does that mean it means quiet as a mouse people
where are the eyes on that large mouth bask you're trying to set hook on and what are largemouth bass
predators well outside of you and me on the water i fish up here in northeast ohio and there's this
lake that i absolutely love it's called wingfoot lake but there's a lot of bald eagles around and
often times i'll be sitting near my boat catching nothing and boom the eagle comes down and just
smashes a bass so be aware if you want to up your sight fishing game keep a low profile bass
are very aware what's happening above their heads alright so here's some practical ways that plays
out turn that trolling motor off on your kayak once you get closer to the bed uh if you're on a
pedal kayak just slowly slowly get close to it and make sure you're controlling your paddles banging
your paddles or splashing in the water on the side of your yak is not doing your fishing game any
favors the best way to get that quick bass fight is to make that cast before the bass even knows
you're there guys this stuff matters all right number three keep your distance guys gals it's
gonna be much easier for you to catch that bass that you're tracking when the bass don't know
you're there you don't need to shake hands with it you just need to be able to make out the outline
of the fish the furthest the way that you can do that the better chance you're going to have in
order to get that bass bite now the thing quality optics not these we'll help you with this but also
if at all possible position your kayak and your back to the sun it's a little bonus for you all
right and number four over cast your lure guys girls i know a lot of you are deadly with these
things you can put this lure just about anywhere you want it so after you locate that bed of fish
instead of putting your favorite lure on there casting it out there and dropping it like a bomb
right in the middle of the bed making probably the majority of the fish scatter
try overcasting your lure meaning casting it a few feet past the bed and dancing that bad boy
right through the bed causing that reaction bite all right let's review quality optics keep a low
profile keep your distance over cast your lure once you've mastered these four tricks of the
trade you up your sight fishing game for sure now that you know these tricks what lord do you use
with bed fishing well here's my top two all right it's bonus time you guys ready for this
if you watch any of my other videos you will not be surprised with my favorite number one
bed fishing lure it is the yes the senko boom look at this these are actually the walmart's
creme brand i love these things and i i hook it wacky style it means right through the center of
the worm and to slowly dance that bad boy work work work right across the bed bath love it
but the second one this isn't working i break out the tube i specifically like the uh the
watermelon uh this one has some red fleck in it a green pumpkin and man these things are deadly
as well once you jerk these to the water they kind of go over the place and the bass bass candy
love it so there they are senko tube bait if you love sight fishing for bass that's
great but here's it's also a very important of the bass's life cycle so please set the hook
on that largemouth bass take that photo show all your buddies put that bass back in so they
can finish having babies so you and i can have fish to catch for generations to come alright
