Welcome back to the Taco Cave Fish and Freaks
0:08
We're going to do a little crappie dangling today. I'm feeling a catch and cook coming home baby
0:13
Now we're going to try a new technique with the crispy. We'll get into that here in just a minute
0:20
Today's video brought to you by the new Tasty Tube and the crispy, the Golden Crispy Batter
0:26
baby, it's coming. We're here. If you want to try the Tasty Tubes, you must try the Golden Crispy Batter
0:33
It is amazing. I recommend the spicy, but if you're an original kind of person, I'm not going to judge
0:39
That's great too. Also, don't forget about the Saucy Slimmer. This is a swim bait that has been tapered down from the Saucy Swimmer that has that
0:50
big, sexy, wide action. This is more of a tight wiggle and it seeks
0:57
It hunts on the jig head or a weighted hook. It's amazing
1:01
Try it out for bass. Great cold water winter action, just cold water temp action on that swim bait
1:08

1:21
You know what to do. I'm also very pumped because something awesome happened this morning
1:25
I was reading tackle in here the other night. I was doing little crappie jigs and little things like that
1:32
Then I heard scuffling. I heard scuffling and I've been seeing this
1:37
We all know what this is. It's not what you want to see in your garage or in your house or anything
1:42
It is the remnants of a rat. A squirrel-sized rat came running across my feet and I quickly grabbed the BB gun
1:50
I was on a hunt to try to get this baby, but it was up in the ceiling
1:54
It was crawling around. It was sneaky. This thing avoided two of my glue traps
1:58
Got caught in it, got out, and then snapped one of the regular traps off, but I came back
2:04
I came back with a serious trap, the old box trap that has worked for me before
2:10
I don't know if you guys can see up in here. Let's get a look
2:19
I see a tail. I see a tail back in there. That means we got one
2:23
We got a rat that is...wow, that thing is huge. Cute. He's kind of cute
2:32
Kind of cute? He's kind of cute. Really? You want to keep him as a pet
2:36
He's so cute. He's not as like...I was imagining one of those rats from...what's that movie with the
2:45
Rat King? Oh yeah! You wanted him to have a mustache and talk like a New Yorker
2:53
Yeah, I thought he was going to be like the Mob Squad. Yeah, he actually has a nice pretty little coat, but I assure you..
3:00
Ew, but the tail...I can't. Look at how long the tail is. That tail is gross. Oh yeah
3:04
Oh yeah. Aw, it's so cute. It's not cute. Let the coyotes clean him up
3:08
See ya buddy! Major distance on that one. The rat has been eliminated and the wife knows. I need a rod tip replacement, probably so

8:13
Full comfort mode. Welcome to the show
8:24
Hooked up boys. Hooked up. First fish off the tree. Oh gosh, it's a largemouth
8:31
Oh gosh, here he goes. Oh, he's jumping behind the boat. There we go, there's a runner. I'll let that sink in
8:35
Oh, he's jumping behind the boat. There we go, there's a runner. I'll let that sink in. Oh, he's jumping behind the boat
8:39
There we go, there's a runner. On the tasty tube. Oh gosh, it's a good bass
8:48
A little high suspendo. What a fight. I'm going to chase him around here
9:09
Goodness. Come here buddy
9:23
Oh yeah, look at you red-lipped goodin. You old red-lipped goodin. I thought you were a giant crappie
9:38
Come here. Oh gosh, look at that one there. That was a fun ride
9:48
Unhook this guy here. God, that little hook man, that little hook just gets them
9:56
Pretty amazing
10:07
Tasty tuber. Not the species that we're looking for, but always a fun one
10:13
Let him go. Oh gosh. See you buddy. Just made my way back into a little creek
10:24
I noticed one fish on a tree, looked like a big crappie. Stuck it up there
10:29
It was a little more aggressive than a crappie. Just rigged up a new pole, 10 footer pole
10:37
The 16th ounce. That little googan green head with that electric chicken
10:42
It's a beautiful looking little combo. Just lightly sank it in there
10:47
Kept it around the tree and that fish circled around the tree and went..
10:52
Eeeee. Never going to complain about catching a bass, they're always fun
11:01
Alright boys, got ourselves our first suspendo crappie. And it is a tasty one
11:11
Come here buddy. Tasty tube. There we go now. That is a good one there
11:23
That's the lone female right there, I can almost guarantee you. That's a female
11:30
She's getting ready, she's back here in this little creek just warming up
11:36
Add it to the chain of crispies. Get a few of those and we'll be set
11:49
Biggin' on a treetop. Gosh, she came out and just tattooed it man
12:03
There's another one in there too. I think she was the biggest one though
12:11
Golly, look at this one. Got a lipper, she's so big. Look at that big dad go
12:21
Just got it in the vicinity and she smacked it dude. Wah-bam
12:31
14 and a half inches. Come and get some Sally. That's only my second bite but both the strikes have been awesome
12:45
Couple of these man, couple more of these and we are golden
12:56
Good, good fish right there. Bites are few and far between y'all
13:02
But when I come up on one and she's hungry, they're big
13:09
They're big man, that just keeps me in the game excited because one of my big freshwater goals is to catch a crappie over three pounds
13:20
And I've come fairly close, a little over two and a half or so but not that three
13:27
I started in the back of this creek and that's where I caught my first fish and I'm just working my way out
13:35
They're not primed yet, they're not really coming in good but these ones that are just kind of suspended on these trees
13:43
The first one was suspended over nothing, just kind of warming up
13:47
They are good ones, they are good ones. I'm not looking for any big wads, I haven't seen any big wads
13:55
But this system is working out good right here with the Bill Dance chair
14:00
Got the pole right here to my side, working with my left hand, looking at the scope here and then fishing with my right hand
14:09
And having that long rod actually helps with this. Like on that fish, I started out on the left side of the boat and the boat started drifting
14:19
This boat drifts really quick so I was able to just move my rod over to the right, keep it on the fish where it was interested and it came out and smacked it
14:29
It wasn't like the normal crappie where you just have to put it on it's nose. I just had to put it on this branch and she came out and smoked it man
14:38
Love catching big crappie, it's so much fun. This out here Bill Dancing it, you know, looking for old big
14:52
We got a suspender right here. Perfect. Perfect
15:03
Oh yeah, fish sees it, wants it. Got him. That's a good one
15:09
Just suspended in the middle of nowhere. Oh, you're all big, I love you
15:16
God, I love you so much. That one was like 10 feet long
15:23
Thank you so much. That one was like textbook. Just middle of nowhere, floated it over there perfectly and she just choked it
15:41
Tasty tube man. They are now available. Oh yeah, two more of these babies we gonna be eating good
15:51
Alright, we gonna have to put you on here. We gonna have to put you on
16:11
Got one kind of close to the bottom here. Still suspended. Just got to get it in front of it
16:22
Alright, here we go. Here we go, open water, suspended crappie, tasty tube
16:35
Let's do this. Sees it. Got him
16:46
Oh yeah. Come here baby. Not a giant, but we'll add it
16:59
Add it to the stringer. Okay, got one perfectly located right in front of this tree
17:09
Gonna send it. See what happens here. Oh, this fish already sees it
17:24
Oh, I cannot believe that didn't happen. For sure, suspended crappie is just not, won't play ball
17:39
Got him. Had to give him that shake, little buddy. That's why you didn't want to eat because you're too small
17:52
Don't want you. That shake is definitely a thing guys. Like I'm not bumping the bait up and down
18:01
I'm literally just shaking it like this and their fins just go crazy
18:07
It's like they just can't handle it. Got a big one located
18:13
Let's make our approach. It's a big, it's a big. There's two of them
18:31
Oh, this one wants it. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. How did it not eat
18:38
How did it not eat? Came up to it like it was going to scream on it
18:48
I'm going to follow this one. This is a big one. Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on
18:57
Going to the 12 footer. These fish are spooky. These two big ones are being ghosts
19:05
So I'm going to, uh, I'm going to change my bait. We're going to go with toxic waste
19:18
Little chartreuse in black color. Sneaky. Gotta be quiet. Croppie are kind of interesting, you know, to watch them on a live scope because sometimes you'll see them like they'll, they'll move
19:33
They'll move because your bait or something like that. You spook them. They'll move off like 10 feet, 20 feet, and then they'll just sit there again
19:41
So it's just different. It's just different than other fish. I love them so much
19:46
Love to smell them. Love to eat them. Just love everything about them
19:52
16th ounce. I should probably go a little bit lighter to be honest with you
19:57
They're so spooky. But we're going to give it a whirl. Sitting at the top of a tree right over here
20:04
There's one of them. Don't see the other one. Oh gosh
20:14
Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Eat it. Oh gosh. Oh gosh
20:21
They're like actively moving off now. Two times they just charged at my bait
20:26
I actually thought it was going to eat it. I set the hook just thinking, oh, it's got to have it
20:30
It charged at it so hard. 49 degree water. It's definitely cooler than it was back there
20:37
They're still out here though. There might be something about them when they're in pairs, when they're together
20:42
It's not as good. They might talk to each other, you know
20:47
Tell each other it's a bad idea. Come on, baby. Got him
20:56
Little buddy. Just had to get one. There's another one up here
21:02
Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh
21:12
Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh. Oh gosh. There's another one up here that's a little juicier
21:25
Got him. There we go. A little better. Little males. What's going on here
21:35
Actually, no. I don't want you. I need one more big femme
21:45
Come on, baby. Be a good one
22:00
Oh my gosh. Just came and tattooed it. Sat there for a second and then said, I need it
22:13
You're not big. I need big. This could be a good one right here at the base of this tree
22:30
Got him. That's a good one. Better one. Come here. Get on my stringer, buddy. Yeah
22:45
Seems like all the better ones have been... Well, not all of them
22:50
Some of them have been right on wood and some of them are just plain in open water
22:58
Look at these. Yes, sir. You know how we do
23:09
Catch them, eat them, and repeat
23:21
Get down there and attract some of your friends for me. Okay, looks like we got a juicy one here
23:26
It's right on the end of a log. These bigger ones are just tricky
23:32
It's going up to the base of this tree now. I'm going to get my bait right at the base of this tree
23:43
It's just nosing on it. Got him. Oh, God. I missed him
23:50
I missed him. I missed him. Oh, no. It's that shake. It's the shake of the rod
23:57
It's like there's more in here now than when I started. Not a giant, but I'll take him
24:16
Take a bite. Those little ones are not hard to convince. I'll tell you that
24:21
Let them go. Let them grow. Well, the day is winding down
24:38
It's about time to head in, but we got a great stringer of crappies right here
24:44
Timber crappies, man. Timber and suspenders. Look at these babies. One of those is an absolute whopper
24:53
Whop bam. Those are going to eat good. If you guys want to pick up the tasty tubes, they are available now
