BFS Fishing With A MICRO BASS JIG!

This was a fun video to watch! The hook killed me 😅

You look and sound like an AI

When a fish jumps you should point the tip of your rod towards the water . This takes up the slack in the line. Stopping the fish from throwing the hook
Love you video,just purchased two 4 foot 6 casting rods and two BFS Shimano Cardiff 100 can't wait to do exactly what you were doing in the video.
Great content thanks

That was gnarly dude, but good on you for getting

Been interested in the BFS stuff for a short while now. Looks like so much fun. Any tips for a bank angler that wants to do it?

that hook in the butt tho!!!! crazy!!

its a dag gum warmouth! love it 😂

Love my BFS. I'm in Minnesota on vacation catching Whopper bluegill this whole week

Definitely looks like a fun day of BFS fishing. That set up was spot on!

First off ultralight fishing is literally my favorite way to fish for fun. Second you need to try the missile baits Ike micro finesse jig! It’s super tiny. I think it has a size 1 hook and a 1/16 ounce weight

Cmon bro, you gotta admit....BFS is just fun...

Great fishing video man. It was very entertaining to watch all the action

Would you do a review of a beginner real like Zebco 33 Micro Trigger Spin or a Diawa Under Spin 40. Appropriate real to help a 10 year old or younger start fishing.

Love those little mono spin jigs. The bluegill color one is great. Glad to see u throwing that bfs setup.

Looks like fun, my dad used to go fishing in Michigan during summer when he was younger. He was from Ohio so not too far. I remember your Northern Bronze series and man it looks like a blast out there. Not to mention that smallie river fishing too. We might be planning a trip out there at some point.

I've been dying to try the same lure set up. Glad to see it working! Also glad you finally launched the site!

Nice Vid.

I fish bfs basically 99% of the time. I also use mono jigs (mostly 1/16th) and the dobyns rod. The dobyns probably has a lil to much back bone for the mono jigs lil hooks causing em to tear free more easily. I use a kuying teton light action with more of a parabolic action. no more than 6# fc. braid being no stretch not always the best match for heavier bfs rods n small hooks. I use those mono jigs and 2 1/2 inch tubes in my local rivers to play a game called Dink Dink Donk! :) I use donkey jrs on the 1/16th mono jigs for a killer lil micro swim jig.

I have a 17 conquest bfs on my dobyns strung up with 8# fc. Its my power bfs setup. lol

on a related aside....i wish i could find those lil hooks keitech uses for their mono jigs. those would be awesome for my 1/16th jig pours.

Stick with bfs. super versatile. The same setup can go from those lil jigs to 1/4oz spinner baits then to 2 or 3 inch swim baits with light or no jig heads for skinny water action. Then texas rig some small plastics weedless.

Id suggest tryn out some other rods. the right rod makes a huge difference in bfs.

Do you target mostly bass crappie and sunfish or do you also fish fire other species like walleye, Muskie, catfish, etc

Should do more BFS! I picked up a similar jig (1/8oz) and it has been producing well

Was this filmed recently or back a couple months ago?

That hook must have been fun to pass.😢

Glad to see you using the BFS gear.

Great action out there Ethan. I still have a BFS on my list but I too have been killing it with the ultralight and light spinning outfits. Keep it coming..love the website idea. Blessings

Good timing on the video, I just ordered some of those little Burro Bugs for my micro jigs that I plan for hitting up the river smallies with! Really selling me on the BFS, and exactly for the reason you mentioned--the 1/6 - 3/16 stuff.

Well, now I've gotta break out the bfs. Bought one earlier in the year for my birthday, and just haven't played with it a ton. This video has motivated me to break out a tiny jig and get going.

Nothing goes together better than rock bottom and jigs

I love the little jigs on my light action baitcaster. Zman trd bulletz work for me. I need to try some mule fishing plastics with them

Warmouth and green sunfish are HIGH on my bucket list. There's a forest preserve lake north of Chicago stocked with them, but I failed to catch any on two different trips back in 2018.🤷🏼‍♂️

Hey Ethan buddy, I'm loving these recent videos! BTW, your new Burro Bug seems to also be a perfect match for the 1/16 oz. Strike King Bitsy Bug Jig. Also check out the Size 1 Bass Pro Shops XPS Wide SuperLock Hooks for your micro Texas Rigs with your Burro Bug. The XPS line has a few Size 1 hooks, but the other styles run longer than Wide SuperLock Hooks.

Rodeo Clown Burro Bug on a purple 1/32oz Mule jig popped 6 fish of 5 different species in about half an hour the other evening for me! I can't wait to get some extended sessions out on the bank. Love that tiny Keitech jig. I'll have to look out for those.

Looked like you were having a blast, Ethan. Although I enjoy the UL fishing because of guys like you and some others I'm considering trying bfs. Thanks for the video.

Small hook , is best let them hold the bait 2-3 seconds before setting the hook...delaying the hook set...

Well, you just sold me on those jig’s. now I just added them to my shopping cart. Thank you.

Glad you got the bfs out. I have been trying to get into it, but still trying to get the hang of it. I like Ultralight no matter if it is spinning or bfs. What type of Varivas were you using? They have a ton of different types.

Nice! I was wondering when something bfs was going to show up again 🤣

Wanting to order one of your performance shirts. I wear a 2x-3x. If I get it and it doesn’t fit. Is there a return policy?

I'm very new to BFS. Glad to see you pick it up again. I have a budget set up, and have been having great fun catching decent bass on a micro chatterbait with a mule minnow trailer :) Cheers!

I've pulled hooks out of bass multiple times. I hate seeing it, but I also feel good knowing that they safely passed it and can live on.

Great video 😊 I went fishing yesterday and caught a Yellow perch for my native fish tank

Great video.

I love it when fish jump, but I hate it when fish jump.

How do you like the curado vs the alde?

Do you have happen to have the Dobyns 7'4 BFS rod also? It's perfect for jigs and drop shots, Wacky, Ned rig all that. And hair jigs

I picked up a technique by watching Brian Latimer where instead of using the drag system on his baitcasters when the fish is running he will open the reel and use his thumb to drag the line by feel. With some practice it really is effective and kind of fun. Spinning reels definitely have better drag setups for the most part.

I love ultralight fishing but will never understand they want to throw light baits on baitcasters.

Checked out the new website and signed up on the email list.

What weight size on the jig you were using.always great vids

Oh cool, a bfs vid.

Love your vids man!!!
