*This thing is really neat **enjoyable.fishing** recommend and i've gotten a few people commenting about it when they see me pull it out. Fits nicely in my back pack.*
Congratulations on 30,000 subscribers!🎣🍾🍀
Congrats, Randy. 30,000. That just speaks to the great content you're providing.
Congrats on the 30k. You’re sure to get 100k before long. Love your channel and yes I’m subscribed!
Congratulations on the new milestone and on your comeback on Grand Lake this week. I really appreciate your honest approach to fishing. Everybody ruffles feathers sometimes. Don't worry about it. Just keep up the good work.
Randy you’re a pioneer! I’ve caught to 6 lbs 20+” fish this week throwing vision 110 kohoku reaction in shallow to 8’! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Just got a levante brailist for light jigsband t rigs and I love it! Congrats on 30k subs too your growing hella fast! Love the channel
I love the old school approach...retired from tournaments in 2000...everything is all new to me....
Hey Randy, the grips on your display rods tell it ALL. Great information, AS ALWAYS!!🎣🐟
Just picked up my second Megabass rod, Orochi Braillist for jig fishing, after using and loving the Levante Jerkbait special for fishing my 110's. Great rod and appreciate you putting these videos out going over the gear!
I agree Randy. Mega bass makes great rods. A joy to fish with. I got into lake fishing when the virus started. I fish shallow lakes. Caddo and Cross lake. I have studied my rear off and I am still having trouble finding fish. I try to cover a lot of water. I catch 1 at the most when I go. I grew up fishing a pond. it's so different than lake fishing. I love being out on the lake I wish I just catch some fish. Thanks for the vid.
I'm right there with you on the Whipsnake. If I had to sell off every rod I own except for one, the Whipsnake is the rod I'd keep.
I going to have to come out of retirement soon because you're absolutely correct on Megabass rods. They are pricey but so nice to fish with. You have never let me down. Keep educating!
Congrats for 30K subscribers....keep up the good work !!!
I enjoy all your topics and watch every video. All are informative.
I look forward to your next clips bud... loving your ideas views and knowledge offered on your channel keep it up
Thanks Randy. Appreciate your interaction.
So I watched this video, a year after I pit it out. You was jacked cause u got to 35,000 subs. A year later your knocking in 100,000 subs..... cause you give honest opinions, and solid advice!!!!! So just keep it coming Randy!!!!!!
Thx man
I watch & like them all. Been subscribed since I first saw you on FTM. Love your stuff!
One of your most helpful videos
Randy, please keep posting every day. I put on your latest videos and listen while I am working. Gets me through the day much quicker. I always struggle with finding spring bass on small bodies of water. It seems like a totally different ball game than big water. I’m talking electric only lakes under 200 acres, most have lots of vegetation and no shad. We have lots of these in western PA. Any tips would be appreciated!
I'm liking all of you stuff. I'm a Kansas City area angler and find your info excellent since your pretty close! Keep talking tactics for pre, spawn, and post spawn fish! Thanks!
Way to go Randy guys help him out great content.
Solo pro at table rock today. I went offshore and caught 15 lbs of fat kentuckies. U and Johnny really are incredible at instructional videos. Thanks for all u do.
U like the orochi line better than the destroyer?
I try and watch em all Randy always something to learn
Congratulations Randy. I have watched you for over a year now every single day. I absolutely love your show. Keep up the good work. By the way this is Mark not Nancy LOL
i bought a couple of the levante rods over the winter and i will definitely be getting the rods you recommend also as always great video and tips thank you so much for sharing
Randy, your humility is welcomed each day
Congrats on 30k. BTW, the Megabass I Jack is awesome.
Randy THANK YOU! I’ve learned a lot from you! Rori
All the videos are informative I like all of them great information on all of them 👍
You have a good thing going Randy. Keep going!
First time on your channel... Subscribed! awesome review, thanks.
I bought the megabass levante Diablo spec r paired with the shimano chronarch mgl and I love the rod and reel combo. I use it for spinnerbaits and jigs and Texas rigs. Feels good in the hand and looks amazing. Can't go wrong for price. Megabass makes killer products
Congrats. Love the videos defiantly has help me this year
Your channel is much appreciated Randy. Congrats on 30k. I would appreciate hearing more about your relationships with key sponsors/partners like Megabass. From your experience, what are those relationships like?
I hope they get the xx out soon got them on order. Thanks for all the great information 👍🏻
The orochis are great! Thanx for sharing
I can't get enough. I'm living in SoCal where I can apply some of your bait modifications though the fishing techniques are quite different 👌
Randy love your videos and appreciate your work.
I just ordered a Levaint Tour Versatel. Now I need a spinning rod, for drop shotting Large mouth that bite on the fall.
Thank you for you work.
You ever figure out which one you want to use for DS? I’ve been thinking an Orochi XX whipsnake…
Congratulations on 30k🤙☮😎
30.000 great job you the man Randy we thank you sir......

Great arsenal Randy. 👍

Would love to hear about how you mentally deal with other anglers and crowded lakes, theres some days I will drive 30 mins and I cant even launch because all the ramps are covered in people. Stresses me out to say the least, I have a son and a full time job I get one day a week to fish sometimes and I want to maximize my time on the water. Would love and appreciate a video on this one day down the road.
Hey randy man, how bout a video for first time boat owners. The top 5 things you wish you would have known before you got your first boat!?! Just a thought for a vid. Thanks for the tid bits!
Im glad you reminded me to subscribe, I cant believe I havent already!!
Thanks!
Great content. I have been watching you for about 3 weeks and enjoy every min. Do you ever use a spoon, also have you got some tips for Barkley and Kentucky Lakes. Thanks!
I have the 7'4" Ororchi enforcer it's ...an awesome rod....it did break recently but Megabass has a great return policy
Congrats on the 30,000. What 5 rods do you recommend for kayak fishing? Like those rods you showed but the length might be too long for kayak fishing, any suggestions?
I just bought a couple orochi xxx and 2 levante's and those rods definitely punch well above their weight. Got to get my hands on a XX but never in stock.
Could you do a video explaining channel swing banks, secondary points, main lake points. What you look for and how to fish them?
Check out the Fish The Moment channel. Jonny Schultz and Randy team up on that channel, and Jonny has great educational videos on how to locate & fish those areas.
Lots of good insight in your videos. If you you have a tip on avoiding wind knots I’ love to hear it. When using a spinning rod and a light or weightless setup like a Ned rig or even a jerk bait I have trouble since you can’t pinch the line when reeling slack like you can on a baitcaster.
I would add 2 more to the line up Randy the Ronin and the Brailist love both of those rods. I am going to get the whip snake if I can ever find its always sold out on tackle warehouse
It's just way to many rods saturating the market these days & mad expensive and most of the rods a person may like lord forbid it gets damaged some how the warranties are shitty or just plain bad customer service.. hey it is what it is.. thank you again for giving us jewels that we can truly use Randy..
Hi Randy well deserved on your 30k. I have a question regarding the lake I fish, it is very shallow 2ft to 6ft and very weedy muddy/clay bottom. How would you fish that lake and what techniques would you use
I’ve come close a few times to pulling the trigger on a megabass rod but it’s hard to spend that kind of money without holding one first, I wish more retailers carried them
They’re incredible. Light and perfectly balanced
I own an Evoluzion and a Levante they are incredible rods! You might be able to scour around and possibly find a few used ones, that’s how I got my Evoluzion Diablo much cheaper. Hope this helps!
Oh dude, I have a med lite levante spinning rod with a shimano stradic fl and its next level. Its renewed my love for spinning gear it's that good. If it's out of budget go to tackle wearhouse an use afterpay!!
Bro i know this is a late post and maybe u already have one. So over the past year I have done a lot of experimenting with rods. Ive found out that the rod and hooks you use are the most important thing in fishing. The reel doesnt matter, just get something reliable (i like daiwas) and the line doesn’t matter as much once you get to where you’re doing tourneys and stuff you are probably already using good line. Seaguar, sunline, daiwa, theres lots of good line.
So I have basically swapped out my whole rod arsenal past year or so. I started getting some higher end rods and my favorites were phenix rods (the new m1 is amazing) and tatula elite rods. I also got the megabass levante diablo spec r…..and it was a good rod, comparable to the daiwas or phenix rods. I have the hardest time with jig rods. Almost all my rods are japanese style tapers, they load up deep, have soft tips, almost like a cranking rod. Well Ive never really found my perfect jig rod. I was camping with a guy who fishes tourneys in same series as me at santee cooper tourney and we were comparing gear. He had an orochi xx perfect pitch and a couple others. I said “surely a $400 rod can’t be much better than my $200-$250 rods”. So i compared his destroyer spec-r to my levante and omfg. Its much lighter and just tapping the tip against stuff it was much more sensitive. So I picked up his orochii perfect pitch (his jig rod). And everything about it is stunning. I mean it is so freaking light and the action and tip is just stupid bro. It still loads deep and has a soft enough tip to roll cast and skip…..its insane. So I immediately was like “this is my new jig rod”. Plus i think its back weighted just a hair so the balance makes it where the tip naturally comes up. Now all I wanna do is swap out my main workhorse rods for megabass rods. Put one in your hand….borrow one, ask friends if they have one, etc. megabass is very expensive but they are also super over engineered where everything on them is perfect. The japanese got it going on.
Good stuff Randy! I’m looking into Megabass for the first time. I have lots of technique specific rods so looking at an overall rod I can slot in and do lots of things with. What do you think of Megabass Orochi XX F6-70XX Tour Versatile?
Hey Randy, could you touch on the whipsnake vs the ronin for jerkbait usage? I’ve been thinking about getting the levante whipsnake for dropshotting and the ronin for jerkbaits but if the whipsnake can do jerkbaits just as good then i’d probably be better off getting the just the orochi whipsnake and saving myself a couple bucks.
Hey, what reels do you use on the rods? Great video.
Good review. Do you have any experience with the levante Whipsnake. If so does it feel/fish exactly like the orrochi Whipsnake. I thinking this rod in the levante line for jerkbaits and also 3.5-4” keitechs on 1/4 oz jiggeads. Will this rod work well for those technics?
Randy, I would love to know what your take is on scent. It's been said that a bass has a greater smell than a bloodhound. I know you like to soften your baits by hand and I'm curious if you think that is a need for scent or what your overall perspective is on that topic. Thanks for what you do. You're much appreciated.
Randy I enjoy all your video's. I have a MB Levaint Tour Versatile, MB rods are the best feeling rod I own. I use this rod to power fish a Tokyo rig. I am interested in buying a Brailist for drop shot Texas Rig. Do you have a recommendation?
I watch cause I believe you are sincere .
was waiting for an orochi to come in stock, but just wasn't coming in. so i went for an expride
I just recently switched over to Megabass rods and I love them. But I WISH I could find the XX Launcher!!! I can’t find them anywhere 😩
Hey Randy I do have question for you tho.. I am just getting into megabass lures and I live in MN now and are waters are the clearest I have ever dealt with coming from Ohio my question is what is a good color to use here when using a flap slap & popmax I hope I bought the right colors to use this spring & summer. In the flap slap I went with GG iwashi, HT Ito Tenn shad & Ozark Shad. And the popmax I went with Pagani raigyo & white python..
Have you used any megabass travel rods? The orochi, levante, triza, valkyrie?
Any recommendations?
Senkos,when to use laminate colors? And when to use colors with the fleck in em??
Do a video on northern largemouth and southern largemouth differences.
Hi Randy,
What reels would you recommend pairing with Orochi Whipsnake? I’m glad to hear your glowing recommendation of it, because I’ve been eyeballing it lately as my first “high end” spinning rod. Thanks!
For anyone else curious, I ended up with a Daiwa Certate 2500 on the Whipsnake, and it’s a match made in heaven.
I tried it with a Vanford but that reel was far too light and the balance was way off.
If I could pick 1 company to be sponsored by it would be Megabass without a doubt. Every thing that they do, they do it the best way possible...cant complain with anything they do, except the prices but u get what u pay for in this industry
I agree its so refreshing to see a company only produce high end stuff and price it accordingly.
Thanks Randy. It's a shame that tackle warehouse is sold out of all megabass rods you mention
what do you think about the gen 2 Levante Casting Rods vs the orcohi rods ?
Those whipsnakses are on intergalactic backorder on tackle warehouse
Try the ‘Hook Up Tackle Shop’. They get product all the time.
I sound like a broken record but I'm gonna keep asking. Can you please give tips on arkansas lakes. Thanks for everything you do!
Do you ever add scents to crank baits?
What size reel are you using on the whip snake like the 2500 vanquish or 2500 exist work
Randy are these the Gen.2s your reviewing here, or the Gen. 1s?
Mmmm, love my orochi.
Which one of the casting rod would work for a Shimano Calcutta 200gtb can you help ? Like the old style round reels thanks !!!!!!!!!!
Hey Randy I have a 7ft s glass composite spinning rod would that be a good rod for jerkbaits I figured it would be good for my small wood crankbaits but I don't know if that would be good for jerkbaits thanks your pal fisherman Mike
Which rod for the big M crankbait? This thing weighs 2 ounces. I have caught a lot of fish on it but haven't settled on the best rod.
Hey Randy where going to get you 100,000 subscribers your pal fisherman Mike
I have to say Randy, if you haven’t tried the new P5 baby buster for open hooked drop shooting it is really a beast. Also, for shorter guys like me I really like the Ronin for jerkbaits. Just a great length and works the 110 great while handling fish really well. But if I had to pick one, the P5 Wind Buster would be it. I know they designed that for casting light cranks and such into the wind, but it has a great tip for working finesse, is a great rod for light soft plastic swim baits and frankly an incredible rod for free rigging, which is beginning to replace a lot of my Texas rigs duties. If you haven’t tried the Windbuster I would highly recommend it despite the price. And I’m with you on the Orochi XX as those are great choices and a better value, in my opinion than some of the previous destroyers, but in the spinning category that Windbuster is pretty amazing and so light and well balanced in the hand. Thanks for a great video sir and congrats on 30K. You are climbing the ladder fast!
Baby buster?? no such rod. Windbuster or baby plugging
Would you use the Levante whip snake same would it work for jerkbait
If every bass in the lake was in post spawn, what would you use and how would you fish... I do realize not all Bass will be in post spawn. Thanks!
Could you please go over water color to bait color selection.
Perfect pitch is a great frog rod.
Wow, how are you fishing jerkbaits on whipsnake it's rated to 3/8 oz.
By the way can you make a video about how rods are rated and how you choose rods?
No Orochi XX Ronin in the lineup?
How much do they cost?
Not saying $250 is cheap, but the Levante line is well worth $250. To be fair most decent rods start at $150-200 anyway. Do getting the quality you get in the Levante line for $250 is well worth it. Imo many other companies charge $300-350 for a Rod that compares.
Why don't you use the P5's?
Used the new P5's yet?
I would love to have the super high end sticks. I've figured the only way for me to obtain 400 to 700 dollar rods is to build em myself.
Do they make a travel rod ??????
What is the warranty on the Megabass rods ?
Three years
