    Blows my mind how knowledgeable you are about every single bait

      That is one of the reasons I was so stoked when I found Milliken Fishing. So much shared knowledge.

    I don't really do well with swimbaits/glide baits, but I keep trying. I always find myself coming back to this video.

    Anytime you say “swimbait glidebait” video I’m watching. Learning these baits are definitely a challenge in themselves and that’s why I love using them. Awesome video.

    Bro I love how you explained everything in a way a person that just loves the sport of fishing hope for this sport. Tournament videos are very entertaining but I do understand the cost. Just keep faith and keep believing in yourself.

    Really appreciate that you shre the knowledge you have, it's one thing to be good at something, but to be able to explain what you know and learned is not easy. Alot of other channels just fish which isn't always bad but I tend to sway more towards the teaching channels thank you.

    This video was worth the $$ to subscribe! Seriously, this video saves us all time and money . I continually throw bigger baits , but it seems in vain until you snatch a big. So this helps the confidence to continue!

    @toph2o676 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for going through that in-depth dissertation on swimbaits. I don't think I've ever seen anything on the internet that in depth. I don't think any pro MLF or Bass fisherman has ever posted anything that in depth. Time location water temp all dictate and when to use what swimbait excellent dude you rock it's like watching a modern day Al lender with in fisherman haha

    Yoooo!
    Another good swimbait video. I know you’ve done a few videos that are HOW TOs, but sometimes I can’t tell if you’re imparting more action with the handle, the rod tip, or both. During the video you made in your pool Cole would cut to the action of the bait, and not how you were imparting the action. Fishing the baits well is a damn art and if you don’t want to give out all your secrets I totally respect that. I have many glide baits, some of which I feel confident in my ability to fish, but most I get frustrated with and switch back to conventional ish. My frustration isn’t with not catching anything, but just that I can’t translate the action from my head to the bait. Any help with a video, or even a small clip while you’re on the grind would be amazing! Thanks for all the great content 👍

    @larrymoss9954 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Dude great reviews and very helpful. I am just getting into fishing glide baits along with the rest of the fishing world. I would like to see you work the different glides in your swimming pool. I once had a pool ( worked lures all the time in it), moved … no pool now 😢, realty miss it. Pools are great assets to fisherman allowing them to see The response of the lure when you twitch your Rod and how small subtle topside movements create and make your bait come alive. Please keep your videos coming.

    I’m sure I can find it if I looked, but do you have or know of a video to reference how you rig your huds? I’ve only used the ol B.B. treble, but rigging a trailer off the jig seems like it might be the ticket!

    @stevehardin6221 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Ben!!!! I fish tablerock in missouri and am just getting into big swimbait and glide bait fishing. I’ve had a little success on the “Draw” but wandering what you suggest for getting down deeper for the upcoming summer and with that, what you use and how you do it to weight your baits? Thanks in advance.

  • @yakandbassin5808
    @yakandbassin5808 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Okay so I got a question about one of my ga lakes it’s mostly shallow docks a bunch of points rocks here and there a couple different types of grass and some shallow water tree piles I have been trying to figure the fish out glide baits hudddlestons and chadshads and haven’t really seen them key in on it I had a big follower on a phoney glide but I am kinda stuck on what to do todays date is 12/29/22 and I have a tourney in 2 weeks and the water temp will be around the 50s and suggestions it’s a 12 inch minimum on fish and have seen some 5 pluses come in the last few tourneys but haven’t caught one bigger than 3

  • @CoolViews907
    @CoolViews907 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What do you do in the fall in lakes without shad, my local lake has almost no bluegill and is very over populated with bass. I think the main forage is baby bass. Also how can I catch big bass witch for this lake is anything above 4 is huge.

    So I’ve watched the video with Matt Peterson and he said he really likes braid and I’ve noticed that you’ve gone from braid to flouro and I was wondering which is better? I think guys feel better having braid on an expensive bait but the flouro helps conceal the line.

    @justindyson1677 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Have you dabeled with the new Gan craft 70? And if not would you be confident in saying that you could turn it into a chopping glide like you did in the other videos? An would that bait modification work with like an S waver? A BFS video would be cool. My idea was like a finess cranking system!!
