  1. I know why you are catching fish with it. By hooking it in the middle and lightly popping the rod it is mimicking a dying creature. If a fish encounters a large school of minnows and just one minnow is dying that fish will target that dying minnow.

  2. I just heard "Hi everyone" and realized I NEEDED TO SUB. bro your voice itself deserves it. you should be narrating audio books. Please anyone in the comment section HELP! iv been fishing for 5 days now.. I spend 8-10 hours fishing a day. I havent caught a single thing. NOT even a tiny perch. I tried worms they eat the worms off the hook. I tried everything. If anyone has a particular bait they use for all types of fish (i think salmon, bass, trout, walleye and perch are the fish at my lake)

  3. Nice bass rescue. : ) I've never tried the pink. I use the watermelon flake a lot and have had good luck with it. Someone should sell them with the shrink tube already on them. I've wrecked a bunch with braid, when fish thrash they tear pretty easy.

    Also the camera doesn't do justice to how big a 4lb bass really is. : P

  4. Your videos remind me of my good old days in Wisconsin. I wish I had known how to fish back then. Now with fancy Shimanos and Daiwas, I'm stuck in the middle of the structureless SoCal reservoirs. I dream one day…one day…I would go back to midwest and enjoy fishing in calm rivers and lakes. Thank you for the videos.

  5. When the more active baits stop working, I like to switch over to the spinnerworm. It's just a senko (or imitation) rigged with a #3 spinner screwed into the tail. You may have to experiment with hook size and weight depending on the weight of the worm to get the desired rate of fall. I generally like to Texpose it on a 3/0 lighter wire EWG hook. The cool thing about this bait is the versatility. You can throw it into the wood or the pads or weeds. You can run it on the surface like a buzzbait, or like a spinnerbait mid-column, or just drag it across the bottom slowly. I've caught big fish on all these methods. And whenever you kill it, it sinks with that wacky senko action with the addition of a shiny spinner wagging on the back. One other advantage over the wacky is casting distance. You can really rocket this rig out since it's more aerodynamic than the wacky. About the only application that is suboptimal is grass since the spinner sometimes gets twisted up on the grass. It's a particularly good bait when fishing weed patches with holes. Run it across the top and when you get to the hole, just kill it and let it wag all the way to the bottom. It's a great go-to bait. Give it a try.
