I was lucky enough to be one of the very first people to get my hands on the Hover rig. I put it through its paces over a long weekend when I first got it. I rigged it with several different plastics, but for me, the winner was just a 5" stickbait. Also, I fished it in places and ways it was never designed for - skipping under flooded brush and into thick hydrilla. What happened? Well, I caught so many fish that I lost count. My biggest so far is just north of 7 pounds. Jonny, Matt, Jimi, - you guys all know I'm a Hover rig nut by this point.
The flying lure! That's exactly what the bait was all about. Amazing how the banjo minnow also was put out and put out and considered as a gimmick. Both actually caught fish very well under the right conditions. But that is the same with all baits and rigs.
That technique looks absolutely awesome for saltwater fish too, not just bass. Flounder, redfish, snook, trout, jacks and lots more would bite it. There might be a market for bigger hooks for bigger baits used in saltwater.
I feel I was amongst the early buyers, only used it twice and it indeed works. For me best results were shallow at bank. Simply because I have yet to learn how to cast it far. I bought core tackle version first, and when I went to local tackle shop they told me that rig was crap and sold me on Japanese hooks and Japanese tiny weights. First fish today on Japanese style I landed fish, the plastic fell off and lost weight....I immediately tried core bait style and fished rest of day with single hook and plastic till got snagged ( I took weed guard off though). Good product...will experiment more because I want it for offshore not on bank. Bc
I’ve followed both you and Matt for years and I felt lucky to get my order in early and I have been using it and catching both bass and crappie( during a club tournament) I am so happy for your success with this rig and I look forward to the Growth of Core Tackle💯🕺🏻
What bait did you use and how did you work it? I've tried all kinds of retrieves and all kinds of baits and so far the only thing that I've had luck with was a beaver style and just barely hopping It Down rocks and everything else has failed I've tried
Hey Joe good for you bro that's awesome I'm almost 60 yrs old and I have medical issues and I can't compete but I can go fun fishing hey Joe have a great tournament season this year and I hope you win some tournament's this year God bless you and your family.
I started using these on a highly pressured lake near me. It has worked so well I have already made a second purchase. My baits last an exceptionally long time. This is a very effective technique.
Like your videos. Matt responded back to my comment, Bless his little Heart 💕 I seen your Hat. HOW may I receive one and do you have any stickers or Apparel? God Bless 🙌 you and Matt.
Before buying my Bass Boat, I was into Kayak fishing the local rivers for Smallmouth. I wanted to start targeting Largemouth on docks in some of the larger lakes. Which I did. That was the Spring of 2015. The Fall of 2016 Gene Larew and Lew's both came out with a "Dock Shooter" system for Bass fishing docks. Just the thing I was looking for. The Larew set-up used a hook that somewhat resembles your Core Tackle Hover Rig hook. They called theirs the "Pinhead Jig". The lure was a flat Bluegill type of bait that had a keel shape on both sides (Bobby Garland has a Crappie Shooting lure that I believe Gene Larew makes for them). They even came with a Pull Tab with a holographic design to aid in shooting. I haven't been able to locate the Larew stuff for a few years now. Lew's also had a "Dock Shooter" Spinning set-up that came out at the same time. All of which I purchased. Anyway, I bought some of your Core Tackle Hover Rigs and have been shooting docks with them. I've been using the Berkley Creature Hawg's (Thanks Matt) with good success. The 1/8 oz. 3/0 hook works great for this. I haven't seen anyone talk about this technique, so I thought I'd put it out there. Good luck all!
Love your stuff Johnny, but you’re so big now that I try to fish the opposite of whatever you’re promoting 😂 I checked out one of your offshore spots at lake Tenkiller 2 weeks ago and found a lot of lure shy fish. That spot has been hammered since you put that video up lol
Haha I’m having the same issue myself! I’m having to change the way I fish because all of my normal strategies are not as effective as they have been. I’ve figured out some cool new strategies with the Hover Rig this past month that I’ll be sharing soon that are working really well.
Technically, that’s a “jig”, not a “rig”. I was called out by a TH-camr last month for calling a swing-head jig a swing head rig….because to officially be called a fishing “rig” you need some combination of a snap, swivel, sinker, bobber, or even a second hook added to the end of your line….I know Damiki calls theirs the Damiki Rig, so the differences between a jig and a rig can become a bit cloudy ……but it’s your product, and you can call it anything you want…I wish you much success on it….for suspended bass, it will be highly effective!! 👍🏼
Interesting comment. On a high level, a fishing rig could be thought of as equipment consisting of miscellaneous articles. Even a combination of line, weight, hook and lure would be considered a rig....a Texas rig is commonly accepted nomclature for example. So a swing head could certainly be considered a rig as well, like you stated. A swing head is very analogous to a Texas "Rig". I also agree with you that unlike the original hover rig, which is line, lure, weight and hook in combination, this would be more accurately described as a hover jig. I got mine, BTW and they look great!
Best, most informative video I think I have ever watched on TH-cam!!! Thank you so much for the in-depth info!!! Glad I ordered some Core heads last week!! Lol
Jon, Don't know Matt Stefan but I do recognize how many hours you've put into your channel, your lake breakdowns and your entire business model. I guess my advice would be to make sure you get paid 1st and most in all of your business dealings
I am very lacking when it comes to finesse fishing. The lake here cleared to 10-12ft vis. I could see them on the scope but could not catch until I threw the hover rig worm, ended up being walleye but they bit.
I’ve tried several baits on mine, best results were on Googan Bandito bugs. Good tip on moving further back in worm, tried with senko but further back might help.
Really cool lure. Maybe you guys Can re-develop the flying lure. I still have a box of those and they are great for gliding backwards under docks. The concept was great but the plastic and weed guard not so good.
I'm glad I watched your video. I planned on trying different tube jig weights to set up a hover rig. I was gonna try a tube jig weight but the problem on the tube jig weight it doesn't have that nose like the core weight. So I ordered 6 packs to try the core weight hook. I'm definitely gonna give this core a world. Thanks for the content. Your doing an awesome job. I now have content to do a you tube video on this product with my test. Thanks!
Great rig!!! I pulled out my PB bass out of the neighborhood pond just a couple of weeks ago using this Core Tackle jig with a Missile Baits Ned Bomb. I can't wait to take it out to the big lakes in my area.
I use the Float and Fly on Dale Hollow. The bait is suspended above the fish with a small cork . The bait gets its action from the water surface. It works in cold water. But basically it’s the same concept the bait set above the fish and shakes and quivers.
terrific vid! I got my core tackle jig heads, couple of months back. Like you said, very similar to fishing a hair jig on certain retrieves. Good stuff!
I'm excited about this technique! In the time it took to watch this video I've already thought of all the spots on lakes I fish. I'm on my way to your website to place an order. I would like to see a 1/32 oz. setup.
I just received mine today in the mail. I help the High School bass team. I have only been doing it for a year and get a lot of joy watching them fish. I got 6 packs of them and hopefully that will help them in their next tournament next week. That’s the biggest drawback I go through a lot of tackle.
Johnny what is the name of that bait that you show on the hover rig on core tackles website? I've been trying to leave through your videos for several days to find the one that you showed it in as one of your favorite baits but I cannot find it. Also the new car tackle swim jigs Steam incredible! I ordered one of each the moment I found out they were released. Which will complete my collection of owning everything you guys make. Thank you and keep up the great work and innovating the fishing world
Can someone explain to me how this is different besides obviously the weight but when you Texas rig say a Strike King caffiene shad weightless with the boot tail I can make that make hover in one place quivering ever so slightly towards me on the kayak at any depth I can see with my eyes wether it’s 1 foot or 8foot- but I’ve been playing around with weightless retrieves and i actually had a decent amount of 2-4 pound smallmouth commit to me working my bait that way as normally I’m fishing it “ about half as aggressively” as I would a hard jerk bait, just giving it longer pulls instead of short hard twitches….how is this technique different from that?? Just the fall rate? I know I’m only inquiring about one bait but there’s 1000s on the market comparable to it, so it’d go for about any of those , bootail or not I fish them a little similar, the straight tails i fish mkre aggressively but if I needed to I could fish them indenticslly. Anyways a response would be great since I always ask questions and never get any answers
I have been going to the website to order some and its "Grayed" out. Its letting me use the Cart but not check out its says "there is a problem with the site try later. Its been doing this for a couple days.I'm using Apple OS Any Fixes for this?
I flip and pitch a Matt Lures crappie bait thats 4.5, maybe 5 inches long. The bait has no tail action and gets bit on the fall. Sometimes it gets bit by "hovering" it with longer casts. 🤔
Has anyone tried this on the bellowsgill surely it must snash em im going to try it in the north, its funny ive been trying to think of a way to rig the bellowsgill to look like a dieing shad then i find this videl
Jimi from the Bass Fishing Declassified channel has been using the bellows gill down in Southern Arkansas on clear and dirty lakes and has been smashing largemouth and smallmouth with is since November. He said the 2.8 and 3.8 sizes work best.
@@FishtheMoment thanks, actually one of your videos got me using the big hair up north and it smashes the smallies. You need to get jewel bait to make a finnese size, I have a guy make one in 1/8 Oz but the hair is half of a big one. Swim it down docks the fall rate is so slow the hig largies chomp it. Also works good ripping it through grass
For sure! We have a prototype of a 4/0 flipping hook with 1/8oz of weight and a double cable guard. It’s pretty bad-a! Works great for flipping shallow laydowns or even fishing offshore brush in shallow water. We are still trying to find the right weed guard strength to keep it weedless while not missing fish.
All you are doing is what us fly guys have been doing forever a leech, attractor or nymph under a slip bobber what it does is either let the waves do the action in the same area or pull the slip bobber which gives it that gliding motion but the key is depth control so the fish know that whatever the food form is, that it will not go down below them, rather be above them or in their face
Delivered yesterday. Got nearly a dozen this rainy Southeastern PA morning. Some on Keitech straight tails, some on Poor Boys Eerie Darters. All largemouth. All 7' to 1' depth. I'm a terrible line watcher, but sometimes the rig felt heavy when twitching, so I'd set the hook. Very much appreciate your content. I've had a ton of success trying Matt's baits and techniques, and your lessons on finding fish and showing techniques has been awesome. I'm still a terrible fisherman, but much less so thanks to your vids! Ever in Philly region, let's fish!
Fun rig thanx for sum different opinions on set ups n baits. Luv G-crack, Deps bull gill flippin around wood 🪵 n bushes. They hammer it like bed fishin with others in competition, mega food frenzy attack. Totally natural descent with flutters in the appendages make it mmmm mmm mmm yummy! Testing sum 6” unrigged flatter sided swamz. On a 1/0 trokar jig hk with a Nories screw in willow blade that also anchors the plastic to the hook. Lil mo flash as it tickles n pulses the h2o while in a fluttering injured bait dance of death. Almost free riggy actions. Keep at’em y’all & keep feeding us the great technical research 🔬 that flat oot whoops bass
We do well on this as a weightless jig hooked bait for lake trout in ultra clear water. The technique is simple, the less you pay attention the better it works. They literally rip the rod out of your hand. Im excited to try this weighted version!
It depends on the type of grass. If you're fishing in clean hydrilla or milfoil, it works great. But if the grass is slimmy or stringy, it will get balled up. We are testing new versions with different weed guards right now to see how they work in different types of cover.

Its time to bring back the Flying Lure . Those things actually work. People just didnt give them a chance because of the sappy infomercials.
Great explanation of the rig. I’ll have to try it out on lake Eufaula AL.
I was using that on the Cosa River back in the 1960's
It's like the flying lure. Lol. Just Google flying lure. Same thing just pros like it this time around. 🙄

This looks like a dream bait for co-anglers fishing people absent minded or inconsiderate boat owners.
Tried new today. Second cast - 3lb LMB. Unreal!
Could you make a HOVERRIG that can be used on a 2" bait?
Kind of reminds me of the flying lure. That “as seen on tv” lure from the 90s. I remember my dad buying the kit and the banjo lure too 😆
Haha I remember that one! No new ideas under the sun they say!
Just bought 2 packs. Can’t wait to try them out!
Flying Lure
Hi if you come out with a 1/4 oz this would be great for summer flounder fishing in the surf.
This rig straight cleans them up after other anglers
This is exactly what I need to try on a lizard
Like it, the only thing I have a little bit problem with is the weed gard keep getting raped in the line, and I am loosing fish.
Bass will eat anything that will fit in there mouth and moves anything lol 😂 anything do you all get it lol
I got mine today can't wait to use them!
Gene Larew created this exact same weighted hook for their bass shooter bait several years ago.
Hello do you guys answer emails from customers? Trying to reach someone for days now
Many states outlaw lead. Will you offer nonlead setups? Thanks
We are looking into a tungsten version. These have a much longer lead time than lead hooks, so it will be a while before we get anything.
Yes, move out of California
Looks very interresting! Do you guys shipping to the netherlands? On you website only says US
We haven't set up international shipping yet.
Lets go with the hats Jonnie and Matt. Thanks
Looks like the same concept as "the Flying Lure"

I will tried them but when of how come they to Holland.
You should start a series on how to read low grade fish finders.
Video made me order this. LOL
Jonny,
How well does the weed guard work over and through grass?
It depends on the type of grass. If you're fishing in clean hydrilla or milfoil, it works great. But if the grass is slimmy or stringy, it will get balled up. We are testing new versions with different weed guards right now to see how they work in different types of cover.
I just ordered a few! Sweeet
Johnny how does it do in rocks ? I just ordered both sizes 👍👍
It works great! There’s no jig head to get lodged in the rocks and the 90 degree eye makes the bait just float over the rocks.
