Thanks for the video Chris, where I live there is not much grass. However, there is some and this video helps me to get the right gear for punching ๐๐
Thinking about converting my perfect pitch Levante to a punching/frog rod. Whatโs your opinion on that?
Awesome info im gonna start punching and pitching more this year…thanks
Da man
Great meeting you at bass pro yesterday! My kids are STILL talking about how nice you were to them and how they canโt wait to try the new swim baits!!
Use any tungsten around enough rocks and docks, all tungsten paint chips away sooner or later. Every brands says theirs doesn't chip.
Thanks, Chris! Very detailed video, will have to try some your tips on the Delta!
<<<a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank youโฆ
Never thought about coloring the line ๐ค – definitely gonna give that a go.
Typical googan. Giving tips on techniques he used to not cash a check in the first two tournaments โ2.0โ. ๐
Still hits weird when they announce you as being from Texas on stage
Thanks, Chris.
Such a big secret ๐
Great video Chris. One additional question I have for you is what knot do you tie for the oz and half and bigger? Thereโs a big debate here in Florida between snelling and a traditional palomar. Thanks!
Mr.Z spits a lot of serious game in this video. He is super knowledgeable in this video. Somethings that you talk about, I wouldn't even think of thinking about. That's why you're the pro, and I'm not. Lol.
I love your YouTube channel, bro. And also love watching your glidebait videos. I'm going to start trying more of the glide bait fishing this year.
Great video
Having the right setup will make punching more fun. Get the lightest rod and reel combo dobyn dx746 curado mgl

Man the camera ya'll use in some of this footage is baller af! Especially the shots of you flipping and the water splashing.. wild. Great advice, I don't punch often… just never was something I did. I''ll have to check it out. Great vid Zaldain. I hope to see you in the top 10 in the classic. I'll be watching live. Safe travels brother.
