Punching at its finest

A few months back I had the pleasure of doing some punching with my friend Justin out on the CA delta. At the end of the day Justin spent a few minutes talking about he had learned and his thoughts on punching. That video was posted here and many of you have already watched it: Punching the CA Delta
Since then Justin has been out catching fish and was nice enough to send over this clip. I was told these fish were caught using the Miller punch System from millerpunchinweight.com and from all appearances, they’re worth giving a try. I hope you enjoy the video!

Punching With a Jig

This video is another step in the jig fishing series. An often overlooked and incredibly product approach to jig fishing is to punch heavy cover. Most people think heavy weights and texas rigged plastics when they hear the word “punch” but me, I look for my heavy jig box. Give it a try!

Punching in Heavy Cover

I had the pleasure of spending a day on the water with Justin VonSpreckelsen. Justin, while not an amateur to bass fishing, confided that he was quite new to the technique known as “punching”. While some would see this as a negative, I saw a golden opportunity for some unbiased information! Justin isn’t a novice anymore. He endured tough conditions and put in a full day punching the tidal waters of California’s delta. When the day was coming to an end he sat down in front of the camera and explained his experience with the 3 most commonly used punching methods.

I hope you find this information useful! Personally, I have a huge bias to the punch jig. I love the hookup to land ratio and the lack of maintenance it requires throughout the day. However, that isn’t what this site is about. You just got an unbiased viewpoint from a man with a keen understanding of punching heavy vegetation.
