  1. beautiful 1st bass of the year!!! I feel ya and understand your excitement Jared!!! 10:50 mark 😮 13:30 smallie!!!! Damn dude….i can't believe i missed this video. I'm so glad every now and again I go through the channels to see what i miss. What an unbelievable day for Jan 3rd!!!! All healthy looking fish and threw in a rockbass for the multi species!!!! 💪

  2. Dude, I need to get my ned rig on lol. Love those fish. Why do you make it look so easy!? haha. Hopefully it wasn't too, too cold when it was raining. I always worry about the open side of my GoPro while it's connected to my power bank when it starts raining.

  3. Congrats man. Jan open water Bass!!!! And so much for ned rigs only catching small fish, like some say. Great descriptions about the technique and bite. Every fish looked so healthy, like that area supports a decent bait fish population this late in the year. Great job!

  4. Bro those largies were very nice and healthy!! Very impressive with all of that current you were able to detect the subtle bite! That smallie was super pretty at the end too. Im happy I subbed and will be looking through the rest of them too!

  5. This is the second video I watched today of people crushing bass in January. You and my buddy, AFG.

    I've never even tried to catch bass in January on open water. You caught some quality fish, Jared.

    I hope this is a good omen for this year for all of us. 😀

  6. So hyped that you were able to find enough open water to fish! Even better that you actually caught some 🔥🔥 those are some very beautiful and healthy fish man! Love to see you fishing out there in January 🙌🏻

  7. To catch fish of that quality during the regular fishing season would be something to be proud of for sure.

    Yet you managed to catch them in JANUARY…that was amazing! That was so cool!👊💥🎣

    If this is any indication of what 2023 holds for you my friend, you’re going to be MORE than blessed!

    Way to go!👏

  8. Great video Jared. Beautiful smallmouth man. I do like to icefish but no ice here in the mitten. After watching this video I went to the basement and grabbed one of my spinning rods. Gonna hit the river soon. 🙌🎣

  9. Hey Jared, that was an outstanding fishing session, especially in January. That spot was perfect with that water discharge, the bass were piled up waiting for a snack. They were all very nice but that smallie was something special! Great video!
