Which means this is SHIMMY's Post NOT Mine . . . .

See ya

This is a video from fishing in Minnesota. Now, keep in mind this is not from California so if your looking for 15 pound bass, they don't grow that big here. This is just a video of how amazing the fishing is in the state of MN. I live in VA and just moved from Utah and i can attest (still biased-don't care) that nothing compares.

and i take my hat off to the big guys in charge of bassresource. There is not a better bass fishing forum

yeh, it was initially a challenge to block out some baits and then turned into an obsession. Since most anglers on this website are great fisherman, it makes no difference whether they see the baits or not. They can probably figure it out

Nice fish!

At first I didn't realize you were blocking out the baits...

I just thought there was a finger print on the lens...

But after I saw it the second time I though "oooh secret bait".

Nice video, man! That is some great footage of some hawgs!

Wow   some nice fish. Great video

You're right. I want to go right now. It's cold, rainy, and windy-I guess I really don't want to go right this minute. I do have the itch though.

Nice video. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thanks for sharing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Thats pretty cool.

Is it just me or are at least some of the fish in the opening segment dead?

Also, at the 2:50 mark, the double hookup, seems pretty clearly a case of rehooked fish. I mean, they are both "hooked" within feet of the boat, and are completely played out. When guy A sets the hook, the fish is back underneath the boat, despite the way the wind would have been drifting. When guy B sets the hook, which he barely does, the  he wasnt even moving his crankbait. Not to mention the complete lack of excitement. I get stoked when we get 5# doubles out here.

Maybe I'm just a pessimist. If I'm wrong, then my mistake. But those two things just JUMPED out at me.

setup... no comment : (however, no fish died in the video-all were released alive and well)

Yeah when i saw the second guy pull it in it seemed kinda weird to me how he "reacted" to getting a fish on and then when he pulled it out and it was a crank i was surprised b/c i didn't see him working it. Either way great vid!

Man after watching that a second time it really does look like what fourbizz was saying. Haha not trying to tick anyone off but the first one looked like it was hooked under the boat ahha and he set the hook and it was there. Then dragged it in like it was a boot. I know big bass are lazy but that looked to be how a bass is after getting him to get the boat.

Awsome vid! and Great bass fishing!  

nice video... but seriously, blurring the baits?  have you found some magic bait that nobody knows about?  come on mang.

You wouldn't have to worry about blurring yours baits with that music if people weren't smart enough to mute it, they would just OMG ESC!

Hey shimmy nice video, I LOL hard at the music  ;D

Very nice fish. Glad to see the C&R going on too.

Great footage i cant wait to get back out this weekend

on second thought I agree with above, some of those look like bogus shots.

I need to move to Minnesota! Nice video!!!!
