Dick’s Sporting Goods Brings Back Fishing Gear – Best Winter Fishing Deals & Tips

I just found out Dick's Sporting Goods sells fishing gear again! A few years ago all of my locals DSG stores stopped selling fishing stuff. I even have an old video about it! So I just had to stop over there to see what they have. While I didn't get anything this time, I will add it to the list of stores to shop for fishing gear. After Dick's Sporting Goods, I went to Academy Sports. This is where I found some bass fishing lures on Clearance so I decided to spend $20. Check out which clearance lures I decided to buy, and maybe you can find some yourself! #realistic #fishing Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Cold Weather Bank Fishing & Walmart Ultralight Gear: Do Fish Still Bite?

Today I am doing some bank fishing when it's freezing cold. But do fish still bite when it's cold? I start out fishing with a Rapala Floater on my ultralight. After trying a couple of spots without a bite, I give up and switch to a Gulp Minnow. I try to fish a float rig, but there isn't enough room on the bank to get a decent cast with the new rod. After removing the float and fishing with just the jig, I catch my first and only fish of the day. No bass today. A 15 inch skipjack saved me from the walk of shame. Do fish bite when its freezing cold? Yes, but not many. #realistic #fishing Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Budget Fishing Gear & Shore Adventures: Shimano FX, Bank Fishing, and Clean-Up Efforts

I just picked up a new Shimano FX Spinning combo! This ultralight fishing combo cost just $30 from Walmart. The price on this Shimano was so low, I couldn't pass it up. And, I would like to add a new ultralight combo to my arsenal. I will be trying this out in a few days while doing some ultra light fishing from a boat. I also picked up a bag of bass lures at pretty good prices, from Meijer. I got some spoons, jigs, soft plastics and more. I am looking forward to trying this budget friendly spinning gear from Shimano. #realistic #fishing Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Fall Bluegill Fishing: Simple Rigs & Bank Fishing Tips for Success

If I was starving, at least I would have bluegill to eat. Today on Realistic Fishing I am fishing at two different locations to see if I can catch anything from the bank. Using a simple float rig, and fishing a jig and minnow I am able to catch about a dozen bluegill of varying sizes. The bluegill were larger at the log, but both spots were producing fish. Even in fall, you can get out there and catch a bunch of bluegill. A simple float rig is all it takes. Bluegill are a great fish for the dinner table. Please harvest responsibly. #fishing #realistic Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Fall Fishing From Shore: Can You Still Catch Fish in November?

Can you still catch fish from the bank in November? Yes! Fall fishing is fun because its not screaming HOT outside! The fishing might slow down a bit, but fish still need to eat. Today I am fishing for bluegill and crappie at "the log". I am fishing a float at different depths as I look for the fish. I end up catching a bunch of bluegill, however none of them are very big. No bass, no crappie, not even a skipjack was caught. The largest fish today us only six and a half inches. But, if you are looking for something fun to do with a few spare minutes, try fishing from the bank this fall. #fishing #realistic Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Beginner-Friendly Fall Fishing Tips and Fishing With Live Bait I Just Caught

Fall fishing is easy enough for beginners. Here are a couple of simple ways to catch fish in the fall. I like to start with a jerkbait to see if there are any aggressive fish around what want to chase a hard lure. After that, I like to switch to a smaller lure, on a finesse rig like a Realistic Rig. It is easy to set up, and easy to fish with. Today I catch a variety of fish including a shad, a skipjack, and several bluegill. If you are a beginner, you can copy these techniques to catch fish in the fall. #realistic #fishing Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Largemouth Bass Rescue & Top Fall Bank Fishing Lure for Bass Success

I just rescued a largemouth bass! But did I do the right thing? When I arrived at my fishing spot this morning, I discovered a bass tied up on a string. The string was tied to a ratchet strap on one end and the fish's mouth on the other. I suspect it was there for a while, and there was no one around. So I let it go. I hope I did the right thing. After that I got to fishing with a jerkbait, and gulp minnows. I couldn't catch anymore bass but I did catch some bluegill. If you found a fish tied up and no one was around, would you let it go? #fishing #realistic Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!

Fall Fishing Rigs and Realistic Fishing Update: Minnow Rigs, Bank Fishing Setups, & Personal Reflections

Today I'm fishing with three different minnow rigs on a light spinning rig. All of these are fished on 6 lb test in case I get a decent sized bass. I start out fishing with a Gulp minnow on a Realistic Rig. Then I switch out the gulp for a larger artificial plastic minnow. The last thing I try is a hi-low with two different sized artificial minnows. Despite all of my effort to adapt, I only manage a few nice bluegill today. Don't be afraid to manipulate your rigs and try different configurations, especially if the bite is slow. #realistic #fishing Send mail to the show here: Realistic Fishing PO Box 2005 Lebanon TN 37088 Try it yourself!
