Have you had a chance to try the Hover Rig yet? What are your thoughts on it? Like it? Hate it?
I’ll be fishing mine for the first time tomorrow morning and I can’t wait!
Shake the rod tip as you real , thank me later
Skips good under docks but your luck if you get it back. They hang on everything. Yet to catch much.
bought a couple of packs but haven't has the opportunity to try them yet. this video gives me hope that they will work for me from shore.
Bought some of these from core tackle, going to try them out in two days.
I got some on order still waiting for them to get here been waiting about four weeks.
I like using them with the muscle worm
Thank you for this review!!! Would you say you got more bites on the fall or after hitting bottom and twitching it?
Ordered some, waiting for them and some decent weather.
Good review! I need to downsize my gear when in the yak, so I bought a couple packs and need to redo my terminal boxes. Hover-rigs, and ringed hooks…game changers.
How do you think 60 degree vs 90 degree hook? Neko rig vs hover rig?
as disclaimer and full disclosure, I too am member and subscriber to Matt Stefan's you tube. they are 3 for 6.49. I used the hover rig this weekend on a no vegetation lake… clear to about 6 or 7 feet deep. It glided; it spiraled; it even dropped straight down for a foot or so, then started to glide. 10# braid with 7# leader; 7 foot, Medium, Fast with KVD 300 spinning reel. 3/64 size. Other than to get the shakey head itch out of my hand, I fished this for about 5 hours out of the 8 hours I fished this weekend. First thing I did was cut off the weed guard. I don't have good hook up ratio with weed guards on Neko hooks or wacky hooks, so I just went ahead and cut them off. I used various worms and even a baby rage craw. went through quite a few worms until I figured out the amount of pull it took and the distance from the tip of worm to get the nose of the rig into the head of the worm. skip it once by accident and it was not pretty but that was user error. I do have some 1/8 oz but did not use them. I will be next time out. one of these will be tied on every time I go to the water. @mattstefanfishing
Thanks for the review! And excited to see you fishing it in heavier cover and appreciate the feedback! It does skip so well!
awesome plug for Matt. can't wait for the ice to melt and give it a shot for myself. hopefully April.
LB Nice review, Matt will be happy. I think a little more slack line on the cast they glide in nice .
That does skip really nice. I saw that posted the other day and had not watched it yet, so I appreciate you putting this one together!. Thank you. I am huge fan of a tube so I will definitely have to give that a try if it works similar.
Lowbrow, excellent review on the Hover Rig!! Nice to see someone else's review even though Matt did an excellent job as well. Glad we had the opportunity to get them and will be looking forward into using it soon. Stay Safe & God Bless!!
That's just a darter head imo
Haven't tried the hover rig yet, but will this year. Thanks for sharing!
Just got my order. Will try this week for smallmouth.
Seen the video by Matt and now by you .was looking for a alternate of the tube and this has solved it
Seems similar to a tube rig and also similar to the old SLIDER ( can't remember the anglers name who these were designed by sorry) jigs, only the ones I use currently ( there are several designs) the weight is just behind the eye but that's not at a 69 or 90 it's online to the EWG style "work" hook… Looks legit, gunna hafta try it
If anything is good in fishing you can bet there will be copycats!
Those look really good! My lake doesn't have all the vegetation like yours has. I wonder how much difference that would make.
That little boat you have is neat. Do you like it better than something like a jon boat or a canoe?
I haven't tried those yet but they look like they would work really good.
That has to be the ugliest worm I've ever seen🤣
