New Hook Shots: Grande Mexican Largemouth
By Joe Cermele
I'll be the first to admit that of all the freshwater fishing I do, largemouth bass are not the targets as much as smallmouths or trout or crappies. That doesn't mean, however, that I haven't longed to get a true trophy largemouth on my list of catches. Up until my good buddy Kevin Jarnagin from Abu Garcia invited me to legendary Lake El Salto in the Mexican sierra a few weeks ago, my personal best largemouth weighed 6 pounds. At El Salto, 6 pounds isn't a drop in the bucket. All I'll say is that my personal best is no longer 6 pounds, though you'll have to check out the episode to find out by exactly how much I trumped it. This was truly a dream trip in a setting like no other I've ever fished. If you are a largemouth fanatic, El Salto is one of those place you should wet a line before you're fishing the big pond in the sky. Enjoy, amigos.

"Listen to your guide." No truer words were ever spoken.
New video format blocked at work....and the youtube vid has not been uploaded yet. Anxiously awaiting the hourlong download of this episode at home tonight!
Great video, gotta love the big bucketmouths!
Awesome! Nothing like catching them big ole bass! Love it. And its funny, not unlike El Salto, "EL Nino is spanish for, The Nino"
Doin work Joe, a great PB.
Nice, Joe...new format loads quick...i can watch it straight through without pausing and loading...Looked like an awesome time down in MEXICO
Here we go again! SOSDD! Why can't a so called "professional" handle LMB w/o Jaw cracking? Starts off Ok but the same old bad bad habits get the video shot! Same old crap! Check out time stamps 5;00, 5;02, 5:09, and especially 5:40, 5:46 & 7:59.
These jaw cracking fish handling has to stop. Come on, no reason to mishandle fish like that! For you beavis's out there who will defend this BS - show me one biologist who endorses this type of fish handling. Just one fisheries biologist. I can show many many state fisheries biologist who state that this is NOT "professional" fish handling. Come on Cersmelly, how about setting a good example? Why the con't. BS fish handling techniques? Too cool? Check out 8;13 and see that the jaw IS STILL CRACKED (over extended jaw) AFTER RELEASE- THAT"S AFTER RELEASE! Clean up your act Cersmelly and crew. Learn.
go a little overboard, king fisher? say what you have to say and leave the little insults out maybe? maybe at least try to be an adult?
the video still refreshes a lot but i got through it. great fish!
king, LMB have a jaw designed to over-extend. That is how they catch and swallow large prey. Maybe you should take care of over extending your own jaw?
Took a full 60 seconds to play the 12 second fenwick ad, but the video loaded faster than normal speed play time, which on my 640k down/256 up speed, that's damn good.
Ahem-
problem citing a biologist that backs up your ignorant jaw cracking technique?
Wise cracks and insults vs facts - priceless! My point is made.
Clean up your act when handling fish - especially you so called "pros".
Thanx for making it so easy.
