I looked Neko up. It means "cat" in Japanese. Pronounced like "neck-oh". Another great lesson, thanks Jonny.
God bless
I did not know that. I always figured most bites would come on the fall, but you have instantly helped me improve my offshore Neko rig fishing. Thanks!
Don’t let Randy see that braid to flouro leader lol
Great channel Jonny! This is, and has been a staple in California for many, many years. Out here we throw 5" senkos 95% of the time in clear to stained water and shaking your slack vigorously with pauses in between seems to work best. This technique works great from winter throughout the year, very versatile!
Your data u give is second to none great job bro ,the way u break it down is unique to other channels, when I want to learn I tune in to u !
Guys, just did a lake breakdown with Jonny.
Highly recommend it. Got some tips that aren’t in the channel vids, and I’ve watched em all. God bless.
Thanks! I never gave it much thought to fish the Neko rig deep
I love the versatility of the Neko rig!
Excellent content today. I never considered lifting the Neko higher off the bottom like you demonstrated today. I will do so next time out. Thank you.
Great video Jonny! Sometimes I use a nail weight that has no head on it and it works great. Neko rig is a great setup. Ya got great content in these videos Jonny and really helps us out. By far the best instructional fishing channel on TH-cam! Keep up the great work brother, you are slamming it! God bless!
Thanks so much dude, expert fishing and great content. You are really helping fishermen and the sport as a whole.!!
Great video! I'm another one that hasn't had much luck with the Neko rig but have never done much with it but hop it on the bottom or drag it. Definitely want to give this a try! Thanks Jonny!
Thanks for all the great videos Jonny! So glad I found your channel
I plan on trying this setup for offshore at Table Rock this weekend. Thank goodness it is Labor Day and the boat traffic should start to die off after this weekend. It has been stupid busy from 10am until sundown.
Thanks for sharing the Neko Rig 😁🎣with us hope you are doing good 😃
great video, I love your attention to detail
Very intriguing. Never tried it but I sure will now. Thanks Jonny.
Sometimes bass hit a crankbait when it starts coming up to the boat i think its that moment when a bass has to bite it or let it go. This can create that scenario over and over in the same cast. Great observation Johnny.
I caught 3 today on a 102* day. I pulled it away from some that followed it to the bottom. I'll let it sit next time. Ty!
Awesome video!!! Thanx 4 the tip. Next week on da H2O I’m gonna utilize this technique! I like the approach of pulling it up 6 ft...makes purrrfect sense to target the suspended bass with a different look.👍😃
Works good up shallow also, shake it to the top of the water and let it fall again. That way you appeal to bass at all levels of the water column in one cast
Thanks for the tip Jonny! Always great info!
I Really Appreciate the thorough Equipment Breakdown and the excellent pics & Discussion of how you Rig & Use Your Equipment.
Do me a Favor SLOW DOWN when you are talking a LITTLE. I know that You're excited but Slow Down Some so I don't have to backup the video to hear a keyword or two.
The Neko Rig works well with a 5” Senko as well.
Hey Johnny your videos are always great I can't wait to move to Missouri and go to your seminar s fisherman Mike
I moved to Arkansas, and I blame it all on Jonny. One day I hope to meet him so I can thank him personally.
Amazing fishing beautiful fish, congratulations fisherman, your fishing videos are very good.
Hug !!!👍🎣
We've been throwing the Neko Rig since the 80s. Wasn't developed in Japan. It's just a wacky rig that we nail weighted to get casting distance and a faster fall to get it down faster. Jimmy Houston laughs about the younger generation calling it a new rig.
I think the "Neko rig" ( NAME) may come from Japan but the wacky rig (US version) has been used for many years now.
@@ejzabojnik834 that I know. There's no need to give them credit for a rig that was developed here in the U.S. I've been using it longer than probably most guys who watch this channel have been alive.
Thank Jonny great video I'll have to give this a try
Try fishing a Carolina rig instead of just draging it on the bottom. fast pops/jerks lifting the bait off the bottom some 5-6 ft then let it sit again again for a 1-2 seconds and repeat. I use this technique and the bass and smallies smash here up north. 3/4-1oz weight 3ft leader minimal, usually a a tube at the end. Imo it imitates a fleeing crayfish or bait fish perfectly.
How intimidating fishing next to Jonny, poor guys. 😆
God bless
Great tips. I can't wait to try it!
SUPER SIC" THANX!
Nice video. What kind of electronics would you recommend for canoe? Unfortunately I can't keep a bass boat in my neighborhood.
Awesome content Jonny, any chance you could share the water clarity and temperature for that part of lake at around that time of day ? Thank you for sharing all the great knowledge...
The water had 3ft of visibility and the water temp was 97 degrees. I was on a hot water power plant lake
How would you fish or in the wind? or would you? would it be effective?
and or in stained to dirty water and grass?
Neko, deep water rig has won me money in local tournaments.
Good video. Do some more finesse fishing vids
Thanks for the videos
Great tip's
What's your preference for fishing glasses?
what you recommend regard the spinning reel and gear ratio?....That was nice to catch bass on neko rig. i want to try this.
Hey man love your vids. I have a question about your new app, and it’s awesome! How more accurate is it compared to BassForecast? Seems that the two have a difference in bait choices. And some similarities. Do you consider yours more accurate than BassForecast? Just trying to figure out if I need both. Thanks bud.
I'm not sure how Bass Forecast makes their bait recommendations, but Deep Dive strategy recommendations are based on real tournament results from professional level tournaments. This means the strategies you get recommended have been used to finish at the top of a real fishing tournament. We then only select patterns that should work based on the current lake and weather conditions. Now there are still times when a pattern or bait won't work, but most of the time, each strategy you get recommended will work if you give it enough time.
What water clarity to you need in order to fish that effectively?
I'll be going to table rock at the end of October for the bbt event. Will you be there?
Jonny in the video you said you were using 20# braid to an 8# leader, but in the next sentence said the leader was 10#. No big deal but just curious as I am just getting into Neko fishing. I would guess super clear water might support the 8 # but especially deeper under normal conditions 10# PROBABLY WOULDN'T SCARE ANYBODY AWAY....?
Wish I would of known you were at SWEPCO!!!
dude shut up
Jonny what hand held scale do you use ?
And what type of o-rings do u use?
I think the floating worms from ZMan or Strike King might also be effective
I've tried the floating worms and they don't give me the action because they want to float.
Plus, it's really hard to get the nail weight into the worm, at least with Zman worms.
Would a Texas rig not get the same bite?
I don’t think so because when you twitch it, it bends in middle of the bait much more than TR. it’s all about the wacky type movement on the twitch because of where the hook placement is located. 🙂
Johnny or anyone else that knows. Im interested in Randy Blaukets bass movements seminar this Thursday. But i want to know once u pay for it. Is there ways i can watch it over an over again? As it usually takes me a few times to retain all the information
All participants will receive a recorded copy of the seminar that you can watch again as many times as you want.
@@FishtheMoment thank you....i will be signing up then. Thanks again for doing all this
86 the click bait titles.
Where can i find the o rings?
Tacklewarehouse.com or any hardware store
Interesting you didn’t get any bites while it was sitting still or falling... that’s when I get the majority of my bites on this exact rig, but I’m also putting it in different places than just deep.
Were the other guys fishing around you catching anything? Did they ask you what you were doing different?
They caught a few 12 inches. Haha I actually told them what I was using and they said "I don't fish with a sissy stick. I'd rather through big baits all day and zero than fish that bait."
@@FishtheMoment WOW!! All take 3-4 pounders all day. Sounds like their bait was bigger than their fish and your "little" bait caught the big fish they were looking for. Pride goes before the fall (or fail). LOL
Keep us updated on your "experimenting". I use 1 1/4 drywall screw and a fat baby finesse worm most of the time....mo` thrifty.
God is good
👍🏼
Is it Nee-ko or neck-o
Neck-o. Means 'cat' in Japanese. Like catch them like a.... As opposed to Neeko which means 'boy.'
You said know one else was doing this was why you were getting bites,well guess what now everyone knows about it.
Is it just me, or the way you pronounce this irritating me. Hahaha . All love and I understand just funny to a southern man. We pronounce it (knee-co rig). Great video brother
I still don't know how to pronounce it hahaha. I say it differently every time
@@FishtheMoment just messing with you brother. God bless you and your little family
This is nothing new been around for years it will get them
It knee ko not neck o
Wrong. Unless you're being funny. 😛
That's a chunk of a bass ah how do I let him go. Oh I ll just throw it sorry but that upsets me set the fish in the water like the rest of us do your gonna bust there swim bladder and kill the fish yes I know they jump but they have control of how they enter the water unlike when you just through them in from six feet
