We throw those bucktail jigs (DH - B52 bucktails) in the ocean for rockfish, calico bass, etc. Same deal. Curly tail grub. 1/2oz all the way to 6oz. Generally on a double dropper loop setup. Those wild feathered ones from Cumberland Pro would work in the ocean too. Thanks for the video Hank. #100percentwatchsquad 🤘😎🎣
I have used hair jigs several times and never got but in them, but I haven't tried them with a trailer on one. So u will give that a try for sure. Thanks for the helpful info as always. You definitely rock brother 🎣🔥 #100percentwatchsquad
#100percentwatchsquad baby!! I don't get to fish a hair jig or bucktail all that much since I'm usually fishing 4-5 feet of water that's choked with hydrilla. But there are times and spots that I would really like to give it a try. I've been considering using them here lately and I'm thinking I'm gonna tie one on the next time I go out.
Hey Hank, I’ve thrown the smaller hair jigs for crappie since I was a kid. Love them & still do. But I’ve never thrown them for bass. This video as well as many of your others really gives me the confidence to give it a try. You really know how to cover a bait top to bottom. Thanks so much! #100percentwatchsquad👊
Thank you and I hope it get's people started on fishing them. I've used them for years out on the ledges and in the winter for bass. They are magic when they are On'em.
I use bucktails pretty often in the saltwater. They're very versatile. They work from inches of water to the deepest water. We usually use a Berkley Gulp trailer tail because of the smell and extra action. I know fish love it because they don't attack regular soft plastics nearly as much. Flounders are suckers for a bucktail with something stinky like Gulp or a strip of fish or another soft plastic with scent added every half hour. The smell is important and adding scent should help with bass too. I used to use those little white feather jigs in the surf in Costa Rica for a species of small snook, snapper, jacks and whatever. It's unbelievable how effective they were. My friends from there throw them with a handline on a board. They catch a lot of fish and never throw more than 20 or 30'.
Thanks as always for sharing another way to catch em Hank! Gotta give this a try. Appreciate you my friend! Keep up the good work. And as always, #BassGeek rocks!!!
Are first highschool tournament is on nickajack and I don’t really want to fish the grass like everyone is going too. We’re gonna run up the river to the dam what would you throw at them river fish
I've used them all my life here in Florida, I started using them in the 1970's and caught bass and crappie on them
They are just a staple if you know how to use them.
By far my favorite TH-cam channel!
You Rock!

Hey nothing wrong with fishing the grass! Wish I had some
I’ve only tossed a thought in this direction but you’ve inspired me to commit
Awesome! They work!
@@BassGeek I’ve been a fan of yours for a long time as well, keep up the great work!
Tying my own and smashing in Missouri
Heck yeah that’s cool!

Tom Thank you very much sir. It is so appreciated.

Thanks yeah they are a killer for me in the summer
I’ve tried hair jigs and caught small mouth with marabou jigs 🤔 and I’ve gotten hits on bucktail jigs 👀 but I’ve never got a largemouth on one 🤔?
Summer is magic time for the buck tail. It's one of those things where they want a fast drop or a slow one so vary the weight
Great video and info Hank. Hundo squad from Mississippi
Hello Mississippi!
@@BassGeek I’m a transplant from Bristol. Looking to get back up before too long

Do you have Live scope?
@@BassGeek yea
Now that’s what’s up and them Cumberland pro hair jigs well let’s just say fire! Thx Bassgeek!
So when you crank them a few time, you don’t jerk the rod tip with any movement?
No not at all. No you can. I allways say try it. They might like it.

Yes sir!
Great video. I have used your grub trailer before 🫣🤫 on the Marabou I use a small chuck of matching power Worm for weight and scent. 🤷♀️
Yes sir that’s a good one
