Hey Pat off point question I cant seem to get any of your videos , I tried a few things but still no luck who might I reach out to thanks in advance george
Terrific reminders, Pat!
Great tips Pat! Does the same technique apply to freshwater fishing? Do freshwater fish like the same kind of structure as saltwater fish?
Pat, this is what I do in between wake ups in the middle of the night. It helps me dream better. Thanks as always
My “Aha !” moment was when I learned to fish the down-stream side of structure…🤪
Great information 🙏
Excellent presentation, thank you!
Thanks for the video. I almost hit a bingo. Definitely need to move from dead zones quicker and scan for birds and bait also.
I would have to assume, if you are not seeing any bait on the fish finder, there is no need to fish in that area. Good report and I have “practiced” several of your mistakes. I think I have some perfected!
Sometimes, especially in shallow water, it’s a visual scan too. No bait usually means no predators.
Thanks, Pat. Great presentation!
Thank you Robert!
