Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.
Last year, we were catching largemouth all day on Red. My grandson looked and looked for hours and finally found some crawfish, they were all green patterns, none were red. So we noted your "match the hatch" hypothesis too.
Thanks for sharing!
I live in Ireland and I used red in lot of diff lures and all ways had pike and parch trout going for them. Top videos keep it going..frm dublin
There is something to be said about "red" in general, it seems like when red hooks are used the fish will bite it more and from what I have seen on some of your lure modifications red does enhance or "trick" out the lure for a different presentation. Thanks for this information Randy! :)
It could be that RED, hooks or otherwise, loses it color before any other when submerged in water..
This fact can be gleaned from a study of Hydrologic Optics, which can be a big help to anglers when choosing colors.
Maybe fish tend to bite better on Red hooks because they're harder for them to see.
I have not found red to be better at any time. Maybe it’s the muddy Oklahoma water chartreuse or white has always dominated my fishing. I do catch fish on other colors. The red blade on a spinner bait seems to out produce sometimes. That why I just throw everything until the fish tell me what they want.. if I fished different lakes with grass and better visibility I might find reds more productive 🤷♀️ love your videos
Here on the IL River Chartreuse and White dominate in all lure categories; 3/8 Nichols Rado (double Colorado blades) Chartreuse and White with the gold main blade and that red/orangish kicker is a killer.
What I’ve noticed is that the crawdads burry themselves in clay banks in winter and come out usually when water temperature gets and holds around 50 degrees. I thinks that’s why you catch a lot on like an red body crankbait and green pumpkin back where the clay mud has washed off.
I caught some on red and orange and Rayburn red this past weekend, I also caught some on a black and blue jig with a blue #11 pork frog on the river here in south Mississippi
In very stained water, several feet away fish see other fish as a dark blobs going through the water, the faster the blob moves, the more it looks like blob, they would not see any color until the moment they hit the lure, sound on the other hand travels much farther and faster then they can see color. So sound may be more of a key then color. That’s one of the reasons big bladed spinner baits are so effective, sound before flash!
With clear water, one could write volumes on Color!
up in washington/idaho. i always have a 6th sense cloud 9 in boiled craw (orange) and it works all year long
I love that color, it works for me year round but especially in the fall.
Thanks Randy never considered the tint of the water but no question it is different in the winter. In my area the water appears more dark and not as green
Hey Randy thanks again for another great video bud appreciate your time very informative. God bless.
I am using swim baits more and getting confidence in them. Thank you for your time and tips. Tight lines..
I catch fish on red crankbaits all year. Especially in July. Just started doing it couple years ago. Have no clue why.😎✌️
Great tip Randy! I'm hoping to get down your way at some point this coming year and have you guide me on a jerkbait trip . Up here in NH there isn't any winter jerkbait fishing available but this past spring I caught my first open water bass on a jerkbait and it weighed in at 6.40 lbs so I was pretty psyched to start my year off on that note!
Hey Randy, I stook up for you on Big Bass Dreams live cast tonight. Just wanted you to know how much I respect you.
Was i getting slammed?
@@randyblaukatintuitive yup. a question came up about the possibility of the Smallmouth record being broken. I posted a chat saying "with FFS, it's going to be more likely". Then the host brought it up and mentioned "the controversy" and your name. Ben Miliken was the guest of honor and he was being a regular blowhard making all kinds of accusations and insults.
I kept neutral, but I did make corrections to what they were saying. And I did remind Ben, indirectly, that you were famous before him or TH-cam. That we should show more respect for the pioneers of the sport. And I made a side comment saying "TH-cam has been berry berry good to me" mocking his accomplishments in life.
Then I gave it to him real good with several $5 super chats. You know my angle with the made in china stuff. He got real brash and started insulting the American people for not wanting to work and blah blah blah.
His brashness created an opening and I stuck it to him good! had everyone laughing with the questions I was asking him. Maybe you can reach out to the host, I forget his name, to see it. The replays are for members only, so most people won't be able to see it.
Anyway, thanks for asking about it. If you check it out, I hope you find it amusing.
Tight Lines!
@@randyblaukatintuitive I haven't seen the replay yet, hopefully it's all there. it's at the start of the second hour. it's only a dollar to join the first level to watch it anyway.
@@secretbassrigs I appreciate for you having my back. Yeah I don’t know what his is… more than likely some type of professional jealousy.
@@randyblaukatintuitive You are already a made member in the bass legends mafia. He still has to earn his.
Everyone thinks you both should do a livestream together. some of the members were pledging hundreds of dollars if Oliver could make it happen. I think it would keep the topic on FFS alive. Maybe even find some middle ground.
The more exposure the better for everyone I think. It is certainly a good topic. I actually think you should have Ben on your own livestream.
Red definitely works in dirt water in Feb. & Mar.
I think your hitting upon a couple of concepts and theory here in color spectrum and light refraction. Fish see in a infrared to ultraviolet spectrum (ROYGBV), this meaning red disappears first and violet disappears last in the water column. Second is light refraction in that the clearer the water and the more sunlight you have the further red can be seen, in clear ocean water at full sunlight red will start to disappear at about 20' depth and any variation to that makes red less viable.
So if not hittin red, try shad pattern, good tip, I’ve never been able to get on a red crankbait bite
I was listening to a podcast and the guest was a fish biologist at a conservation department. He said they had a fish tank with large mouth bass in it and they had a bunch of colored ping pong balls,every once in a while the Fed toss them in and he claimed they would go nuts for the red one.
Also red turns grey at deep depths
Quick question? I got these big ass orange crawfish. Should I throw an crankbait all year? Livewell always have orange crawfish parts. Thanks
Randy thanks for all the tips.
Read 10" worms with a shiny brass weight Works unbelievable especially for predator fish like musky I have a musky that measured 52" weighed 32 pounds 4 oz was caught just after the spawn would have been a new state Record With the eggs And I've caught a lot of musky on that combination
Great tips Randy, appreciate and will apply them 🎣🙂
Red disappears before any other color with water depth. It will look dark grey in just a few feet of water. That doesn't exactly mean it'll "disappear" though, it'll just look more natural.
Randy, I know at certain depths in the ocean certain colors disappear or change to other colors. For example red after a certain depth looks green. Do you think it’s possible that the water clarity and conditions make red or orange baits look more natural to them than the baits look when they’re out of the water and we are looking at them? Just an interesting theory I had.
I saw a chart just the other day on Google image search and it showed that red turns to black the deeper you go.
@@darrellgrant7615 depends on how far down you are. Saw a video of a guy free dive bow fishing and when he would shoot fish at certain depths their blood would appear green, but when they would get nearer to the surface it would be red. I would say we normally don’t target fish with these red crankbaits in depths deep enough for it to look black in my opinion.
Talk about those master looking swim baits in the back left corner please 🙏
How you doing on your arrow head hunt's?
Good question 🤔 I found one the size of a $1 coin to big for an arrow.
Up here in the North it's ice on time. I am the average weekend angler. I have never seen an orange/red colored craw ever up here. They are brownish with a little black and dark green/gray pretty much year round. Post spawn my fishing buddy and I are fishing live craws so I know what they look like up here. The smallmouth really don't care what the color is. They gobble them down.
Crawfish only get red way down south because of all the red clay. I live in New England and it’s the same as you. All shades of brown with some even being black.
The water is purified in the winter. Best time to catch bluegill and crappie because the water is cleaner which late the sun shines through more which changes the tin of the water. The closer to spring brings on the junk water muddy from run offs 💯💯💯💯👍🏽
What about pond fishing in Florida where we don’t have crayfish. The bass here eat other bass or bluegill so baby bass and bluegill colors work well but I have not caught any base with bright red or orange lures 😉
Thanks ✅
I’ve been killing it with a red chatter bait with a green pumpkin trailer all December.
Caught so many fish on these red and orange....!
Understand how water clarity and light exposure not only impacts ability to see the bait at all but to know what colors look like at different light intensities.
Seth feider has a video on this. He hired scientists to run tests of different colors at different light intensity to see how the color might look like a different color and ability to detect bait movement.
Good thing I got my chili craw strike king shad on.
That does it I’m unscribing orange lures matter 😂
I keep different colors of lures tied on and let the fish tell me which is best.
More people throw red in spring, so they catch more on red. It's about percentages.
I've always found brown and purple to work better than red.
Red works in January,February and post spawn
Remember, bass vision is dichromatic… they have only red and green receptors unlike humans who have trichromatic vision. Studies have shown they can distinguish between ref and green and dark and light colors. They have trouble distinguishing between black and blue and white and chartreuse
Why do you paint jig heads red
I personally don't own a single red bait. A red eye here or there, but that's it.
Thats why your bass numbers are weak.
Wind is definitely the key
Man! Red or Orange? Try both true ... I'd rather listen to your story telling about old tournaments , and crazy fishing partners those videos are awesome!
Fished a tournament where they were gorging themselves on crawfish. But they wouldn’t eat anything remotely resembling a craw. They eat a frog all day. Go figure.
What about pink
One thing that can possibly help Randy is putting on TH-cam on the PC at home and select 'play all' - I do this often and it just runs for hours while I'm away with the benefit of getting back to it and sometimes getting a refresher on an older video- just something I do
Thx!
I enjoyed fishing as a child , it's been heightened for centuries men women nations tribes and native tongues 👅 flourishes of people have fed.. " simply love the people feeling on the shore or on the waves under the 🚢 boat a catch is a catch.. " and the One seated had the appearance of a jasper stone and a sardius stone and all around the throne was a rainbow like emerald in appearance ' [ESS] ( Mrs. BOATRIGHT) BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP..Hey fishers
Cgw
How about red jerk bait over. Rock .& .brush piles
Love your content but you do need to change it up a bit. you basically start every video with reminders and pro mo stuff....i now just forward every video to the 1 minute 15 second mark. why not ask people to subscribe in the middle or at the end
this will really help you and also keep you from being so boring in the beginning
👍
