- The Roman Made Mother is not your everyday swimbait, 12" long and 10.5 ounces, it's a true giant glide bait. Today, I go out and see if it's actually practical at all or if it's just a complete waste of time and money!

that heart pounding moment when a giant nips at your swimbait...happened to me the other day. love those moments.
almost as fun as landing one but almost nothing gets the blood pumping like having a tank eyeballing it lol
Bruh shoulda done the figure 8 for those fish that tried to bite at the boat.
Damn you Geoff!!! I want that silver scale blue back Roman Made Mother sooooo bad!!
Wraps make the Mother OP.
First fish was not big, but she was eating to become big! Fun stuff and thank you for sharing!
Awesome content as usual!
Great video love your breakdowns
Love the videos man
Can’t wait for the next video!!
That’s freaking crazy! You def know what you’re doing using the Romanmade mother! Still trying to get my mother fish, only had two followers but no commitment. Nicely done man!
2 casts in.. i am wondering, any followers!!!!??? Got a nibble. I am sold. Lol not on the bait but on your skills and presentation. You rock dude!
Please make this a series 🙌🙌
Hey man thanks for getting me into buying a k9 and just being a great content creater
Another video of caliber and size, Geoff. Thanks!
Your opening statement is so true... at least for me anyway. A 12 inch lure is too much for me to cast from the bank. I made one of these lures from Poplar wood a few years back after seeing Marling Baits make one. It has a Rainbow Trout paint scheme and looks much like the real deal. Since this was just too big for me, I gave it to my brother who lives on the coast and takes people out on fishing trips. Then I made a Roman Made Negotiator for myself. So much more practical for my fishing needs. I've made a few more since, and really like this style lure... just not its price! 😂
Nice catch!!
Great video, I was off camera at 3:56.
Has to be the best color mother I’ve seen
Sick footage and cast to catch Brodie. 🤙🏾
Let’s goo the frenzy challenge😮😮😮
What an incredible Bait and knew it would work 🔥🔥🏆
That's awesome!!
Really love your videos man, keep on doing what you're doing!
Any chance that you're going to try to catch japanese snakeheads?
Excellent
Great video! For me 8” swimbaits are the sweet spot. Plenty of drawing power with much better cast ability
this video is gonna do some numbers i can feel it🤘🐟🎣
There are a ton of Musky baits that are pretty much just like that bait, but are way cheaper, have bigger hooks and cost a hell of a lot less. You might want to try using some to catch bass with. We catch some big small mouth bass on Lake St. Clair on musky baits, so I know they work. lol. You could get a dozen Musky baits for the price of that bait (at about $30 each).
Hell yeah, if it makes you happy, it's worth the money.
SUPER SIC" CONGRATS from Idaho!!!! jd
nicely done Geoff, Pleasant?
I hear ya, enjoy throwing a Gan Craft “303”!! I enjoy the Challenge!! And let me tell ya, I ain’t no Spring Chicken 🐓. Still none the less it is FUN!!!👍🏼👍🏼
Do u perchance got any spare glides a snook js broke mine off while i was fishing for bass.. in a deep depression rn bro
Oooohhh the frenzy is going to be a tough one unless there are stocked trout or later in year when the bass get canniballistic with smaller lmb.
Man I wish I could get a bait like that
You’re a beast my boy
What rod are you using? Do that fast figure 8 Japanese retrieve. Those treble hooks look so small.
Which reel would you recommend for throwing something like that around? Is the Shimano Calcutta Conquest MD suitable for that size of lure?
You need to do the crazy figure 8 with it
I’ve seen S wavers get the same bite action if not more than the Roman made so I’d say it’s not the bait it’s the fisherman
Big bait videos... Can't be beat!
😂😂😂 damn it. This got me wanting to go fishing. Right now right now! ❤
Do you think the iROD Genesis III Series Swimbait Rods 8'6 could handle the roman made mother?
What reservoir is that?
It is your money!!!! For some people, 400 is spare change
Huge baits and lures intimidate me. Lol. I am not sure if I could handle what it would hook...
Stoked to see how you do with the frenzy. I’ve caught a couple here in WA on it but, nothing big yet.
How do you like the Artex Addiction? Curious how it compares to an American blank. I recently acquired a Border Patrol and love it for the Tiny Klash. I feel like the Japanese rods are more true to their ratings than some of the American rods.
Its an amazing rod to be honest, best rod I have ever used for giant baits to be honest. The rod is balanced so well for giant baits. I really want a Border Patrol, seems like such a sick rod.
Don’t matter what size fish! Swimbait fish is always sick! 😉
I want to be like you when I grow up 👍💪👊🙏
Nothing like a bit of breeze to get the bite going. I throw a Negotiator often and love the action, but I'm not sure I'd enjoy tossing a 10+ ouncer all day long, either. I'll stick with my 250s
Hey bro where is the best place to score an Artex rod?
You and me both. I’ve seen them on eBay for astronomical prices other than that you have to find someone who is willing to give it up. Please let me know I’ve been on the hunt for the last 3+ years. The search continues for the holy grail 😂😂
@@Daiwa_Is_King Are they built on north fork blanks or am I thinking of a different rod? If so, have one built.
@@rhodesianhunter9360 the Pulse rod is the rest is just some other blank. I had an NFC 8’ Loomis EDGE swimbait rod built the Silver Widow it’s the lightest swimbait rod I’ve ever held. Weighs nothing for a 8’ rod
Figure 8 that my man
What was your setup to fish an 10+ ounce glide bait?
Would you consider a record caught using LiveScope a "real" record?
Grab you a green leaf moby and give it a try. 15 in gizzard bait
Never seen or heard anyone caught one off the moby yet. The mother is the holy grail of swimbaits
Pretty sure ive seen milliken do jt@@TacoDudeYum
@@drewanderst7023 anyone other than ben miliken. He can catch bass on anything
Calico candy
400!Ha!!! I would had just bought me a baby shark and just add my own hooks 😂
Fuck yeah bro! 🔥🔥🔥🤙🤙🤙
Get the Mother Chaser back from Ben and try that.
I hope soon we can see you start throwing at seawalls for big glide bait snook
figure 8!!!!!!!!!
change the goal to 10 fish that was too fast 😤
When are you going to start using forward facing sonar to catch Bass?
UGEN!!!!
🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
I will now be buying 6 rm moms
Nice
Those hooks are way to small for a bait that size .
Try at least a 3\0
3/0 That’s an anchor lol
Yeah 3/0 if you wanna put a 9mm hole in a fish’s stomach
Those hooks are way bigger than u think
😅😅😅😅@@Bourger
@@Bourger keep dropping fish with those lil hooks . I fish with baits that size everyday for striped bass and hooks that size get lost on the hook set . That's a lot of wood for those baby hooks . But like I said keep dropping fish .
Lure is more of a sculpture, too dear to fish!
Cocaine's a helluva drug America 😂
Definitely not practical
Lure pays for itself first catch.
That wasn't a $400 bass you simp.
Nothing that catches fish is a waste. I don't think it makes a big difference other than in your wallet but to each is own
To me, it is not that the bait is not worth it, I can see the craftsmanship and the attention to detail but is like someone like to buy very expensive shoes or jewelry to get the same results from someone throwing not that expensive baits and still catching a double digit fish.
Im not even gonna watch the video. Yes a $400 lure is both a waste of time and money.
Waste? Literally helping a lure company and catching fish on a custom made handcrafted bait. You don't get better than that. But keep doing the same thing with the same 5 baits and having the same experiences... Swimbaits are a totally different thing. Like the difference between live bait and artificial in Saltwater ...
Yes its a waste of money. Never in a million years can a bass lure company justify 400$ price tag. Its literally rip off but big swimbait guys don't care. As long as its Japanese they will spend racks on it while sucking off the company. Example the Roman made mother chaser 1000 fucking dollars. I don't care about supporting a company like that. Especially when someone was recreating the lure for personal use because he didn't wanna spend a ridiculous amount of money on it and almost got sued for it. And yes you do get better than it. Its called supporting a lure maker who handcrafts and doesn't charge you gold prices. You're acting like the only way to have fun and catch big fish is if you break your bank account. I know big swimbaits are a totally different experience to regular fishing. Its one of my favorite things to do. I barely pick up my normal rods. But guess what? When i first started i was able to buy 5 swimbaits for only 100 dollars and i didn't need any of them to be an overpriced piece of japanese wood. Its a fact that almost all big swimbaits hard and soft are overpriced. Especially soft swimbaits. The prices for certain soft bait are actually ridiculous and they only give you 1. But you do you boo. If you wanna throw 400 dollars down the drain go ahead. Im not gonna stop you or care. Ill stick with my budget baits that work beautifully. Literally my first two fish when i started big swimbaits were back to back 13 and 11 pound snakeheads so its not like i don't have big fish experience.
@ColorblindBullpup disagree with what waste is. $$ for R&D is worth it. Baits proven to work on trophies are worth it.
@ColorblindBullpup the 1000 dollar lure isn't for everyone lol you have to have gear to throw it 16" and like 22 oz lol it's specialized. Pay for the experience just like everything. But you can't say it doesn't catch WR class fish...
Of course its proven to work. Scum frogs are also proven to work. Still doesn't justify the price point and it never will.
Yes, a lure is not worth $400. Anybody that buys one is just that guy that says "hey look at me, i bought a very expensive bait and deserve to get hung up because i realize that lures aren't worth $400."
If you’re broke just say that
While I have lures up to $160, I will not pay $400..However, handmade baits that can take weeks to make 1 are probably worth the money to big bait fishermen....There's a big difference between handmade baits & mass produced baits
God forbid a man spends his own hard earned money on something he likes 😂😂
@@andybales7318 relative if you are solely a Glide Bait fisherman. Roman Made should be in the tacklebox
Where I am from people pay that and then some
Using the Lords name in vain isn’t doing you any favors bruh
Leave your god damn commits to yourself
You took time out of your day to pick on his choice of words?
I wish I had the kind of free time you've found...🙄
hey guys look at this guy
This is a fishing channel, not a gospel one. God damn dude 😂.
@@sk8rfromGAyou took time out of your day to pick on his choice of words, too. 😊
$400 that’s a lot of suckie suckie
Really enjoyed this sort of "mission" video!🫡
Next up, hawghunterz?!
