My favorite thing about this video Wheels is how real you are, you mention companies youre not sponsored by. I watch several other Pros when they do these monthly style bait videos and they all only mention companies they are sponsored by. You the man!
Good point
Ya'll, that 2nd palomar knot was the absolute fastest I have ever seen someone tie! LOL Insane fast 😆 Great Video!!!
I like how you broke everything down and gave examples and the goods is a awsome bonus!!! Keep up the good work brother!!!
Hey what's up, new to the channel. I'm going re-watch this video tomorrow, but I appreciate all of the bait suggestions. I've moved to VA from CA and just now getting into the VA fishing scene, so it all helps. I've always been a top water/crank bait guy but looking forward to learning more of the plastic/swimbait side of fishing out here
Thanks Jacob!! A northerner here from the mid Wisconsin area and when everything else fails we break them flipping jigs (swim jigs) and beavers out! In the summer that is, thanks a lot for the video I love learning new things and the tying tip is a big plus, love it! never new that would make a big difference in hooksets… got a tournament to fish Sunday up here, hoping to find them! Best of wishes to you next week as well! Great content and looking forward to seeing more!!
It's easy to see that you have a passion for fishing that is next level, so do I. This passion is what drives us to be the best we can be. I could listen to you all day. Thanks for taking the time for us.
Here til the end, and never thought about clicking away. Your personality and ability to share your knowledge is a captivating combo. I just bought a couple madrafts and the tuning tip will definitely help. I also really appreciate you sharing the rod/reel/line for each bait. Have a great day!
Always appreciate you breaking down everything. Best of luck to you this season!! Hoping to use some of these techniques my next trip out. Mainly bronco bug and magdraft
I do enjoy following all you guys (DC, MDJ, Avena) and the info is so much fun to listen to and I'm sure there's so much material or insight y'all hold out on; but these videos have helped more anglers than imaginable! Thanks for all you guys do!!
Great tips on the glides, and I knew there would be a stick worm coming down the pike.Favorite tip was the way to face hook when tying on for flipping.Never knew that never heard anyone say it mattered.
Good video today! Thought the map work was very helpful in relating what you were looking for in terms of a place to throw the various baits. Thanks!
I appreciate the insight regarding where to look for fish paired with the mapping.
Awesome video
Just finished the vid! My favorite thing was definitely your little tip about tying the Palomar knot right. I will definitely make sure I’m doing that all the time now! Awesome watching your videos and learning from the best in the sport.
Really enjoyed this one.. love how you break down each bait and showed places on maps where to fish them.. watching the whole video was definitely worth it...
Great summary for April baits, I like the green pumpkin and white craw teaser tip. Also, the swim bait versus spinner bait subtle tip.
Great video. I have the Mayor and Clean up Craw and they have caught me some good fish. Thank you for sharing.
Jw definitely watched the whole video like always. Appreciate you taking the time to make them for all of us to learn something from you. Please keeping coming.👍👍👍
I watched until the end; I enjoy all the content, but really enjoy the real experiences you’ve had and the map tips… the bed fish story was awesome 👏
Thanks, Jacob! The 1-2 punch with the 2 craw colors was my favorite tip. Appreciate the videos!
Thanks for all that you do! Favorite part is the fact you’re open and honest about all baits and not just sponsored ones.
Yes great job! You are always very thorough with everything you teach. We don't get told things that do not work! Thank you.
I love all your information I try all the advise you give out and most of the time it helps me catch more fish so keep putting out your opinions on the monthly baits and have a great weekend
In addition to being one of your supporters and enjoy watching you and the gang in the tournaments, the great advise and coaching you are giving us anglers is awesome. Thank you for doing this, as a new to Bass Fishing I am looking forward to using these tools and techniques. Thanks again, have a great day! Oh, last thing, I did watch to the very end (that is one of the reasons for this commen)
Always look to you for advice and pointers.Going to Watts Bar this week. I caught my personal best at Lake George using advice about fishing in Florida. She weighed 8lbs. 12 oz.. Always pull for you and love your enthusiasm. Good luck
Thanks for your tips and knowledge. You help me with new techniques.
Good afternoon from Georgia. I watched your videos and I really appreciate you always making changes to your fishing. Keep up the great work.
I really appreciate videos like this, man. For someone who recently discovered a passion for fishing, it’s awesome to be able to learn from professionals like you. I know I still have so much to learn, but I will definitely be trying some of these baits. It’s really hard to pick a favorite out of everything you mentioned, but I think it is actually the crossover rings. I love throwing a wacky rig and a neko, so I’m eager to try those.
Enjoy watching you fish and giving great advice on the CrushCity Baits. Good luck on Dale Hollow I think you are going to enjoy the smallmouth fishing under the every fish counts rule. Looks like a great year ahead.
Still with you my man. Jacob thank you for being an educator and taking the time to! And you are a real thorough and good one for shore. It means a lot to me and I no it does any one who likes to learn in general? So mad respect to you for that really! Can’t pick favorite part hole video was the juice. My self when it’s coming at you like you give it. Longer the better. I am not in hurry. You’re the one sacrificing your fishing time. To hook us up. You’re a good person. And definitely one of the best anglers if not the best. For the reason’s above. You are appreciated my friend. I live in Alabama. I’m gonna catch up with you out and about at some point and tell you in person. No need to apologize on a month or two here and there if people watch you and pay attention you’re teaching if it’s just quick go to on MLF so it’s all good. thank you‼️😁
Never gotten to do much bed fishing before so I really appreciated those tips, I actually caught my first bed fish yesterday on a green pumpkin cleanup craw so I am glad to know I was doing the right thing and definitely learned some new things to be even better
my favorite, was you breaking everything down so simple. I Seriously only been fishing for just "Bass" for 3 years. Its all Great Stuff!!! Stay Solid!!
Great video, and very helpful in helping me understand I haven't been that far off base with bait and presentation selection in April.
Jacob, you are the best informative angler of ALL! No B.S. and right to the point with some of the best tips I have heard lately. Keep it up. I'll definitely be watching everything you put out!!
Always great info Jacob, you and DC some of the most down to earth people and easily relatable! Great meeting you in Columbus!
Definitely some goods JW!
Appreciate all of your content. What a privilege to be able
learn from the best!
Heck yeah!! I’m here to tell ya this is the kind of video I search for I’ve followed a lot of content over the years and for me I really get fired up when someone as you gives up some juice lol the mayor stuff and flipping I really love and seeing you on my home lake was awesome!! Dude your killing it!!
Awesome stuff right there. I’m liking the crush city also. Wish for you to continue to have a great season. Behind you all the way sir.
You really did give us some goods and the best bait you talked about was probably the wacky worm because I catch a lot of bass on it and it’s another great bait coming out that you designed 😊
Always watch the whole video. Thanks for all the help you give. Can't wait for the next one
A lot of good info and you explained it well. Now I have some new baits to get and try out.
Jacob, great explanation of the baits and their purpose. I enjoy your videos because they help me to understand what I'm doing wrong...lol
I'll get it right one day! Looking forward to seeing you at Dale Hollow. Thanks for the video.
This is my favorite time of year just because I love to watch it all go down. Growing up on Toledo Bend I've caught some giants and can still remember my 1st one I caught off bed and been chasing that feeling every year since. Those cross over rings are freakin awesome for wacky/neko rigs they're definitely more pricey then o-rings but it seems like they make my plastics last longer. Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!
Thanks for the tips Jacob!! Good luck this season!! 🎣 👀
I love all the little nuggets you drop with the baits! Awesome video
Thanks Jacob. That was a great learning video. You went in depth with the bait and your set up too. I very much like the way you used the lake maps to give examples of where to fish them. You went from faster moving baits to try to locate the bass, to pitching right to the beds. I'm sure everyone has learned a little something from this video. Good luck with all your tournaments and be safe on your travels.
Best vid I’ve ever seen! The way you explain where on the lake kept me interested 100%!!
Much appreciated Jacob, learned a lot and I really liked the swimbait portion of your video- the hows, what, and where after talking about the baits itself (the Arashi, the Mayor, the Magdraft,) and the under spin( after bass spawns and the shad spawn begins). I’m a newbie to bass fishing , into it for a year now and caught 35 total so far (bank fishing), until I can get a kayak, God willing, then I can really go live.
Two nice tips were the Palomar knot and flipping. Also the magdraft straightening.
Thanks!
Jacob, so much great content in this video today. With all the new technology and lures coming out it’s hard to keep up. You have done a excellent job explaining and showing how and where to fish these lures. I have been fishing for bass since the sixties and I’m learning so much from your videos. 🎣🏌️♂️
Thank you for the information. My favorite is the wacky worm but struggle with wind a feel!
I liked some of the swim bait set ups and the glide bait info. But some of the wacky tips were helpful. Thanks for the tips and continued blessings to you!!!!
I watched the entire video as I do for every video that you put out and , you are the real deal , just the game about the flipping hooks and the bed fishing and not using a bopper stopper,, there was plenty of more game and I also wanted to thank you because my hook up ratio has definitely came up and definitely catching way more fish by just listening to you and if I could ask one favor and that's to never change from the way you are
Great stuff as always!! I am getting big into the swim baits glad you shared some info on it going out this weekend gonna try to get them on the swim bait and wacky rig!!
Hey Jacob.. watched from glide to wacky. All good stuff in between.. I appreciate the lake map and where to look for fish in April .. all the juice tips are awesome.. I liked the map locations to bait usage .. much appreciated!
I love the mayor! I have had some good days with it. Can't wait to see what else you come up with. Thanks for the tips
Thanks for the extra tips this month. The wacky rig with the nail weight is going to be the first thing I'm trying the Spring to see if it steps up my wacky rig strikes. Thanks again.
Good info. I'm glad you mentioned tuning the Magdraft, I didn't know that trick.
Yes watched until the end. Great video and thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Thanks a lot for the report, great video as always!
Appreciate the transparency. Probably one of the main reasons you're a successful as you are! Tight lines Wheeler 🎣💪🏽
Great info ...looking forward to the to the senko you are testing and your magdraft tip
I have been fishing a very long time but you always seem to share something I don’t know or something I haven’t thought about a certain bait. That Mag draft tuning tip was a great example. I had no idea you could tune a plastic swimbait. Anyway, keep the vids coming they are appreciated by fishermen/fisherwomen of all skill levels. You share details that can help everyone catch a few more fish. Tight lines brother.
I like how well you go through each bait as well as giving bits of tips that can help get bit! Big fan bud and hope to get to see you at the dale hollow event comming up!! Keep it up you and DC are neck n neck with wins this year get after it and have fun!!
32 years living on Caney Lake, Zoom Gunmetal Wacky rig is legit this time of year! I have yet to try the crossover ring, I'm still using the o-rings. But taking it back old school, my all time favorite bed fishing worm is a Culprit Fire & Ice. Something about that flash the bass can't stand. Keep grinding Wheeler...you da man.
Hey Jacob! Watched the whole video, been following you and the “ding” group for years, you all are informative and entertaining 🎣 Betting that you have many favorites that you don’t share because of the loyalty owed to your sponsors, but that’s the nature of the business. Still love the new products you’ve come up with!
I’ve been crushing them on top water in April, that’s one that I think you left out.
Thanks for the quality content 🎣🎣🎣
Thank you Jacob.
Enjoyed every minute. The one-two punch with the creature bait …… 😁👍
Great video and always looking forward to your next one. I like the crossover saves a lot of worms.
Watched it to the end. Great info, thanks!
Great info here, love seeing new stuff
You absolutely brought extra to this video! Thanks for the juice!
Thanks Jacob! I’m ready to go catch a big on a glide🎣🎣
Great tips I never knew you had to tune a mag draft either! I love all the little tricks thanks!!
My name is Esteban Medina. I watched this entire video and let me say. Thank you for being so specific about each lure and equipment for that style of fishing. Very helpful stuff you spoke about. Especially with showing the map contours and where to use the lure. Thank you once again. Have a blessed day.
Thanks for all the great information Jacob! Always good pointers and insight for the month. I'm an East Tennessee guy and always look forward to your videos. For me, pitching a creature bait or a jig and throwing a wacky worm are my go to baits in April. I have just got into throwing glide baits. Hoping this month with be the month that pays off with the glide baits. I have been catching several on the Freeloader rigged with the Hybrid head and the hover rig hooks. Good luck this season.
I Always learn from your videos. Much respect!
Watched this twice. JW DROPPING knowledge something that deserves a second listen.
Appreciate the instruction on various uses of the lures and how you use them. I also liked you showing where to start on the maps and what to look for steep banks etc.. Look forward to seeing your new worm hit the market, ... and I have been using the wacky worm collars for 2 seasons and quick change from wacky to neko without changing the worm and adding the noseweight. Works extremely well. TYVM
Love the videos and education. Liked the magdraft tuning
Appreciate the map tips, getting my first bass boat this month. Thank you.
My fav thing about this vid is the plug and play aspect. I know it’s marketing but it’s easy to be overwhelmed at places and it i can make a couple notes on specific things to get it helps big time!
Excellent Jacob! I definitely did not know that you could tune the Magdraft I’ve had that same issue with it rolling. I’ve tuned plenty of crankbaits over the years but never even considered it for the magdraft. Thanks continued success!
My favorite thing was some of the bed fishing tactics. Great stuff AZ always
Love your advice. We watch all your videos. Will be at Dale Hollow rooting you on. My son fishes for the school here in Pickett co. We are looking forward to seeing you you and the crew here. Be safe and God Bless…
Dang dude this video was LOADED with the knowledge we all seek! Well done.
I watched the whole video and started it over.I appreciate the fact that you consider the fisherman that doesn't necessarily have the money to buy certain baits and that some of the best ways to catch the big one is a worm not pegged or a wacky worm with 10 lb line or whatever works best for us.Stop teaching Connell how to fish lol
Been looking forward for this video. you and DC have been slaying them this season.
Jacob, thank you for sharing your April picks, how you use them, where you use them and what gear you use! I'm a weekend warrior and really appreciate these tips!
Great great video my favorite thing was the craw tips!
Honestly every tip was put into a great perspective. But I am someone who fishes a highly pressured body of water where the fish do things way different compared to status quo across the country. Differences and special tips are super worth it. Thanks for the video! Didn’t even know it was 44 mins long because it was so helpful
Good video ..thanks for keeping thoughts in my mind!!
I like the advice on just a straight crawl for a bed fish. I'm using a straight crawl profile with just a EWG jig head and a black crawl and it's done really well for me this spring so far. See I just hearing that simplicity and you actually saying something I know is true is pretty awesome to me so yeah I like watching all your videos to the end.
Gave you a thumbs up and appreciate your willingness to share your skills with those of us less advanced.
Great information for me being new into the sport. Thanks much from southeast Michigan!
I love how you break down the bait and explain on map where you are throwing it
like the straight forward approach with your spin on what works for you - been a long time since you been on Geist or White River - keep producing excellent content
Would be awesome if you would make a vid on how to break down a lake spring summer fall upper end lower end etc. great vids Jacob!
Favorite thing, the entire video. I learned allot. Thanks!
Like the breakdown of the places on lake and also the rod breakdown deff helps to see what's to come from crush city
Thanks for all the goods Jacob! Good luck bud!
Watched the whole video, thanks for keeping it real on the tips, tight lines brother!!
