100% watch squad! Show Hank you respect how hard he works at this and the effort he puts in by watching 100%! If you like the neko rig, I'm sure you'd love the bungee jumper rig if you've never fished one. It's like if a neko rig and a Texas rig had a baby. Fish it almost like a football jig or a shaky head. No one else is fishing it, I can guarantee! Also, Texas rigs and jigs are always getting it done, so you know I have those tied on at all times!
I love all top water baits including a spook, and popper but the money bait in Massachusetts right now has been a huge wakebaits. Spro 50 Rats, MS Slammer's,Pat's Perch, Bucca Gill wake. Last ones are garage built and expensive, but the Spro 50 is easy to get for 30 bucks and it's worth every penny! Let's see some cast to catch top water bites! Great video, n good luck. I got my biggest of the year last week at 5 9oz on the Pats perch waking.
Thanks for the video Hank. My top three baits/lures for June are the football jig, drop shot, and then some top water. Frogs, poppers, and whopper ploppers get used. Sexy dawg too. 🤘🎣😎
I like 5-1/2 to 8” swimbaits, chicken rig, neko rig, big wakes and popping frogs at night. I do most of my fishing in the evening up into the night when it starts getting hot.
Hey Hank great video as always. For June when the heat turns up I’m tossing a frog. River 2 sea walkin frog over grass & in the muck. For grass edges. Some sort of walkin bait in black,chrome or bone. For deep water I’m cranking the rapala D16,20 & of course the good ol’ yum dinger weighted wacky rig. Keep up the great work 👊
So I watched this video then went out and bought a bone colored Yo Zuri top water walking style bait I went out early this morning and at 7am I had a huge hit caught my P.B large mouth I had no scale was easily 8-10lbs After that the bites stopped which I wasn’t complaining after landing a monster. Then I switched to a Googan click bait in the bluegil color and put on a bluegil trailer from big bite baits. Caught a 4-6 lbs large mouth and then mins later a 2/3 lbs’er. Insane Thank you Bass geek your favorite June bait video help me have a great day
Top three June baits for me are. 3.Scum frog(trophy) color: green& red flake 2. Zman elite chatterbait color:white and chartreuse 1: big bites jerk fluke color:alewife on four ewg is money
my new favorite popper is the berkley bullet. It got me a top 10 on chickamauga june 4-5 hobie bos. it caught 3 new personal bests in a row. 1 on day 1, then a bigger one day 2, then an even bigger one like 30 mins later. It walks great and bloops great. i would change it up... walk, walk walk, bloop....pause. bloop, bloop, pause. walk, walk, walk, walk. pause. bloop, bloop, pause.......etc. i was using one of the 2 translucent colors. the one with teal blue back. theres also a bluegill translucent.
Deep diving cranks, shaky heads, and I use a rig called the Gypsy rig that my grandfather always used. ( its more or less a heavy headed (3/8 to 1/2 oz) bettle spin with a 3" to 6" paddle tail with Chartreuse paddle. )
We're shore fishing from docks with some weeds around and we love the top water frogs, It's nice to pull them over the top to the open holes looking for the bass to blow up, Very fun.
That's a great line up for June. I do most of my fishing at night during the Summer so I would add a short arm spinnerbait, big worm, big wakebait, and a Teckel Sprinker Frog ( i thought it was a gimmick lure but I throw it up on the bank and drag it off and slowly wind it in....They CRUSH it at night.). BTW I bought a Firefly stern light that I saw on one of your vids from a show....It makes fishing at night so much better. I told them I learned about it from you.
Great video. I like the shallow to deep approach. Actually just picked up nail weights, some wacky rings, and trick worms to try them wacky, neko, and Texas rigged.
@@BassGeek confirmed they do. Went out just to catch fish with the tick worm wacky rigged. So many different types of bites. 8+ fish in about 45 minutes. All small fish but it’s just fun to catch sometimes. Next up is I’m gonna try the neko setup to try and get it to the bottom quicker.
I’m a big fan of topwater in the early morning/evening; my favorites being a popper like my Yellow Magic in bone or whopper plopper 75 (louder plop) in munky butt or perch, when the topwater dries up I throw a shallow diving crank bait like a Hybrid Hunter , then if I’m on the bank in the heat, I go deep as I can cast out from the bank with a jig or Texas-rigged plastic.
@@rowdybroomstick6394 about four days ago, a black/chartreuse zoom. Quarter ounce unpegged weight. No luck in really muddy water. I was fishing a reservoir that’s only about 20ft at its deepest point. I was fishing a road separating two bodies of water.
Good baits for this month. And yes you said waking a swimbait. I love it ew G weightless drag it across the thickest weeds like a frog you can throw it anywhere actually up into the trees and get it out. Awesome technique
My top 3 June baits 1 - Yum Mighty Worm 10.5" T - Rigged 2 - Shakey Head 1/8 oz BUCKEYE Pro with a Trickworm but playing with the new Z - Man SMH 3 - Big Wake bait
Does the water color matter on these June lures Wether it’s muddy color or dark green like where you are vs a black bottom lake that makes the clear water appear black?
Good question and yes. Now be careful about black water the question is is it dirty water or just the bottom? I need to do a video or at least a short on this
Love your channel. I have an idea for a depth finder invention that I would like to speak with you about. How can I contact you to discuss the idea. Might be willing to partner with you on this.
Hey Bass Geek! I’m looking to buy some soft plastics and I’m not sure what to get. I already have green watermelon 5in flukes and some four inch creature baits. What other baits and jig heads/hooks should I have? Thanks, Jack
@@BassGeek I fish small ponds and lakes in NJ, lots of grass and weeds. Usually with a mud or sand bottom, clear to slightly dirty water. I will be fishing with a 7 speed 7’2 MHF bait caster combo and a 7ft medium spinning rod with a 2500 reel.
@@BassGeek Great! Thanks BassGeek, I’ll check out one of your videos on color. I’ll probably get some kind of dark almost black color and something like green pumpkin or watermelon.
That would be great for those swimbaits. Deeper crankbaits heavier underspins. It’s still a fast enough reel to cast jigs, worms, spinnerbaits swimjigs. To make it simple it’s a great do all combo
Thanks for the response, I throw a spinner a lot and just recently picked up a chatter bait can’t wait to try it. I am also going to try that swimbait deal!

You know it! I have not seen that one I’m checking it out now! Thanks

I do like big wake baits but it’s all open water here so you have to be more subtle
4 baits: chatterbait, ol monster, soft plastic fluke and a craw or jig....OK, it's 5, my bad! Lol, as always awesome content!
Hahahaha hey I'll take 5 I can never have just 3 either.
Great info sir thx
Thanks
A lot like you. Zara spook, pop R’s and Carolina rig zoom centipede smoke purple glitter.
I like a crig
Got hooked with the shorts now watching your whole videos

The blade bait is pretty good in June

Thanks for the tips I will have to get a under spin and a walking bait.
Man A underspin is my go to summer lure
Great video
Thank you

Nice top three for sure.
These videos have definatley help me come a long way

Got stuff I like’em all

NICE WAY TO GO BRO! I'm happy you're loving that Yak!
Seriously need to get me that top water walker. Thanks for the info.
Gotta a 15%off discount below
Best intro ever !!! Lol ... 😆 😂
LOL had my creeper vibe going.
Deep diving cranks, shaky heads, and I use a rig called the Gypsy rig that my grandfather always used. ( its more or less a heavy headed (3/8 to 1/2 oz) bettle spin with a 3" to 6" paddle tail with Chartreuse paddle. )
That's a dang cool Rig!
You just called my whole line up...except my flutter spoon...the ole neko rig gets em when nothing else does.
Yup I love a spoon also
Drop shot 10 inch green pumpkin worm frog or popper crank nait
I like all those also.
Walking bait anywhere
Swim jig around shallow vegetation
1/2 oz Wobble head with Rage Bug
I looooove all those.
We're shore fishing from docks with some weeds around and we love the top water frogs, It's nice to pull them over the top to the open holes looking for the bass to blow up, Very fun.
I love a frog

BTW I bought a Firefly stern light that I saw on one of your vids from a show....It makes fishing at night so much better. I told them I learned about it from you.
Walking baits and swim baits but I really like the z-man bubble gum TRD. Fishing it very very slowly around cover on a weedless rig.
Yeah that’s a good bait It’s more of a spring bait for me
As always thank you for sharing another great video. An as always you Rock
Thank you for watching
Great video. I love the Wacky Senko. Junebug or brown/tan (sure thing by bps). Landed a 4.65 yesterday
I love sneaky but they go deeeeeeep in the lakes I fish so it has to be weighted lol
Thanks for the great tips! 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Very much
Do you have to use a straight shank hook for the Neko rig?
No you don't. You can really use about whatever you want.
@@BassGeek sweet!
Great video. I like the shallow to deep approach. Actually just picked up nail weights, some wacky rings, and trick worms to try them wacky, neko, and Texas rigged.
They shine in late summer
@@BassGeek hope so. Picked up black, green pumpkin, and white. Start at the surface and work my way down the water column.
@@BassGeek confirmed they do. Went out just to catch fish with the tick worm wacky rigged. So many different types of bites. 8+ fish in about 45 minutes. All small fish but it’s just fun to catch sometimes. Next up is I’m gonna try the neko setup to try and get it to the bottom quicker.
When did you get that SLX DC?
I've had one for about a year maybe longer. It's sweet.

Now that's a bank tip right there. As deep as you can cast out. Good stuff sir.
Good baits for this month. And yes you said waking a swimbait. I love it ew G weightless drag it across the thickest weeds like a frog you can throw it anywhere actually up into the trees and get it out. Awesome technique

Man try that yum worm on a neko look at the worms in my description lol

Good question and yes. Now be careful about black water the question is is it dirty water or just the bottom? I need to do a video or at least a short on this
@@BassGeek the lake im thinking of is a black bottom
Great lineup! I think you covered that pretty well. I'd use that worm as a shakeyhead but it's bc I've used them more and have more confidence in it.
Try something new man you might like it.
@@BassGeek this is true
Love throwing a spook and a whopper plopper
Yup great
Love your channel. I have an idea for a depth finder invention that I would like to speak with you about. How can I contact you to discuss the idea. Might be willing to partner with you on this.

Hey Bass Geek! I’m looking to buy some soft plastics and I’m not sure what to get. I already have green watermelon 5in flukes and some four inch creature baits. What other baits and jig heads/hooks should I have?
Thanks,

Jack honestly I hate to say without knowing how, where, and what type of lake your fishing. Give me just a little more information.
@@BassGeek I fish small ponds and lakes in NJ, lots of grass and weeds. Usually with a mud or sand bottom, clear to slightly dirty water. I will be fishing with a 7 speed 7’2 MHF bait caster combo and a 7ft medium spinning rod with a 2500 reel.
I would get some drop shot gear for the grass with some Berkley flatworms. Some kind of straight worm for Texas rigs and shaky heads
@@BassGeek Great! Thanks BassGeek, I’ll check out one of your videos on color. I’ll probably get some kind of dark almost black color and something like green pumpkin or watermelon.
Hey bassgeek I have a 7’3 mh blackout 13 fishing combo with a 6:5:1 reel, what application would you say is best for this setup
That would be great for those swimbaits. Deeper crankbaits heavier underspins. It’s still a fast enough reel to cast jigs, worms, spinnerbaits swimjigs. To make it simple it’s a great do all combo
Thanks for the response, I throw a spinner a lot and just recently picked up a chatter bait can’t wait to try it. I am also going to try that swimbait deal!
