Hey man nice video! Looking to get into swimbaits n stuff. What is a good all around size. I want to catch bigger fish but i dont want the swimbait to be too big to the point where barley any fish other than the biggest one can get it. I was thinking like the 3.8 (for keitech) / the 3.75 (rage swimmer size). Is that good? Or should i downsize to a 3.3 (kitech size) / 3.25 (rage swimwmer size), or upsize to the 4.3 (keitech size) /4.25 (rage swimmer size). Thanks for the great tips and keep up the videos!
Those are very good ideas. I think that the 3-4" sizes mimic most baitfish. I think the jighead size is possibly more important. I usually use a 1/8oz jighead for a slow fall and a 1/4oz when the fish want it faster or deeper
Yeah they seem to perform about the same but the rage swimmer is cheaper and lasts longer. I prefer the color and size options of the Keitech. Thanks for the video.
@@OGfishingtexas speaking of swimbaits caught some big ones on them this morning & I’m happy to report the topwater bite is officially on. Mostly on whopper plopper crystal minnow in the 90 size. Fall fishing is beginning!!!
I used Keitech for a long time, but the Strike Kings are better because they have identical action, and are significantly more durable than the Keitechs. I switched a few weeks ago, but it became very apparent last weekend why I switched. I had some Keitechs in my hip pack while wading the family pond and those things fell apart on every single strike, whether I caught a fish or not. I was using Owner Flashy Swimmer terminal tackle (belly weighted underpin w/ lock spring). I started out with an old Rage Swimmer that had already caught 4-5 fish previously, then it caught 4-5 more that day while missing 3. The last catch destroyed it, so I switched to all I had in my bag which was a pack of Keitech’s. I went through every single Keitech in that pack, caught 4 fish and missed 2. I’m a firm believer in the Rage Swimmers.
@@KanonMorris they do not have the same action. Keitech and senkos are superior hands down and get bit more. Which is why these companies try to rip them off.

I like both and usually will go with the cheaper one too! Thx for watching! New video with swimbaits premiers on the channel this Thursday at 7pm CST
Oh My goodness! That rod sling had me freaking out!
Lol, I have NO IDEA how that happened! I'm lucky I got it back!
Never caught anything with strike king but several with the Keitech
I prefer the Keitech as well
Once you find the pattern it’s game time. I’ve always had confidence in Keitech so honestly haven’t tried any other
The ONLY reason the Strike King won was because of cost, .25 cents cheaper per bait

It’s about to get crazy good!
What swimbaits were you using?
@@colbyb24 I caught 4 on the YoZuri topwater this morning up to 3lbs!
Also if you keep it up you’ll have a blooper video like Bill Dance soon 😭
My whole life feels like a blooper reel bro!
They say, everything in Texas is big..Look like they were on a dinkathon ..This wasn't impressive..
Don’t catch 5lb bass every time!
Keitech don't last, if u are lucky u will get 2 fish on each one.
Don’t disagree. I like the new Rapala Cush City swimbaits and a Galida’s Grub
I don’t like ketch either I lost like 4 2” swimbait on a cool bait hook def didn’t like it they’re cool overall but quality not good
@@hiddencityboxing4564 they do tear up easily
@@OGfishingtexas yesir I just got the rage swimmer instead… what other good swimbait for bass fishing for dark water
For dark water I like bigger, 4” plus, dark body solid colors maybe chartreuse tail. Try to find one with a bigger tail for more vibration
Keitech all day. They knocked them off for a reason. Same for Gary Yamamoto senkos they Simple get bit more
I usually default to Keitech too
