I love how you always let us know about new things to try. One of my favorite things is trying new lures or casting methods. Now I’m gonna go watch your bass master bible study video again, great job Tyler. 👍🏼
I caught my pb 12 pounder on a straight tail worm on a jig. Didn’t really think about it until you released this as ive tried fishing my jig with a craw since and havent had the success in the pond ive gone too. This friday imma put the yoto worm back on.
@@TylersReelFishing funny enough after this comment i went fishing this saturday and caught a 6.5 pounder on the same watermelon jig and yoto worm. Must be juiced
I've caught a bunch of fish on Toledo Bend throwing a missle baits mini flip with a Ned style worm on it all summer through this spring... I've even thrown it at fish on livescope and they tend to run it down to the bottom or eat it while I'm swimming it past them similarly to how I do with a minnow. It works and it's a bite getter for sure... Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!
Before I even watch the video....berkley done a test with a craw style bait. They started to remove the appendages or the pinchers and the more they removed the more and the quicker the fish would eat the bait. It's a defenseless craw so this is why the ned jig works so well. Sometimes it takes a minute for us to understand or realize or think about these type of scenarios as anglers. We are so Uber focused on presentations, conditions, colors, baits etc that we fail to think of the si.ple things.
I’ve been throwing spunk shads and caffeine shads on swim jigs for a while and almost always get more action with the soft jerk bait trailers than I do with paddle tail trailers
Yeah BassfishingHQ already talked about the same thing months ago. Ned rig hits that, however Brian Latimer talked about hitting bass all day with a ned rig but not the biggest.
@@krum81when fishing gets bad put the ol’ airpods in set the phone up down by ur live scope and watch some fishing breakdowns 😂 you might learn something WHILE YOUR FISHING!!!
Tell me why, I was going through this same problem, I was fishing for large mouth in MN but I snagged a huge northern pike. Most of us Minnesotans would have been happy but I was disappointed 😅 I just want the bass mane 😂
I’m wondering if the inspiration came from the “strolling” technique that came around. I know hating on livescope is the thing now, but it is a great teaching tool. Awesome video.
Tyler, the bitsy bug finesse jig with zoom jr z-craw trailer turned vertical with the bottom appendage removed was my go to jig for the past few months. Got bites behind other anglers and some of the biggest bass I've caught all year.
Spoiler Alert... you can achieve the same results with no trailer. I fished a northern open at Champlain a few years back and the well named pro I was paired with was alternating between the same jig with and without a trailer. He won the tournament .
i think it may be for the silouette, staying a bit more compact it should allow to get in the covers and in brush piles better? only reason that comes into my mind tbh
You almost face-flipped that last fish. I missed if you mentioned your jig weight--I'm wondering how much difference in fall rate would exist between the two trailers with a lighter weight jighead.
I use a soft plastic lizard 🦎 on my jigs usually and man they love it. The tail on the lizard looks like a swim bait on the retrieve with it's tail and limbs, if your having trouble finding a good trailer, try a lizard 🦎.
My friend was fishing with worms and he looks down at my jig and trailer and he’s just like “interesting..” bro we both cracked up. Are they silly to fish with? It seemed dumb when I started to think about it. But idk haven’t had luck with anything in particular.
Fish definitely bite the most interesting things! Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason, other times it’s incredibly specific. That’s all part of the game!
@@TylersReelFishing the Tyler Reel! Thank you for your response 🙌🏼 I just got back in to fishing and I’m loving it! The scenery and chillin with my bros is awesome. I get it lol. Just bank fishing for now. Thanks for your content! I learn a lot from it.
I say that the jig worm won 9-5. You had 6 bass plus 2 pike, and lost a third to, probably, another pike, for 9 bites. But I think its fair to say that the quality goes to the craw trailer. No shame in counting the pike, imo!!
This video confirms my theory that smaller bass are more likely to avoid large pinchers and the big bass aren’t intimidated by them. Hence catching more numbers with the worm trailer yet the biggest bass went for the craw trailer.
Next time yall do the “fish catching” test. Yall should switch rods every time someone catches a bass since one person might have a different fishing style than the other person.
I know this is heresy but I actually have a blast catching pickerel 😂 I enjoyed this video a lot, BTW. You seemed really relaxed compared to most of your videos where you’re so polished-which is great too! But it’s fun to see you acting like you’re in your 20s sometimes! 😅
I would agree. Recently got into bass fishing and have learned so much from your content. Thank you. Without it I probably wouldn’t be into bass fishing still and so thank you.
This now explains why a clawless crawfish creature bait still worked well on a jig. It had claws when I started then I just kept tossing the rest and fish were still smashing it
Ive never been too successful with jigs, seldom really. But I suppose showing em something they're not used to has their advantages. Also attaching spinner blades on soft plastics might be something worth trying after seeing a few people doing it. Good to stay on top of new techniques/approaches to fishing
Just sub to your channel Tyler and a huge thank you to someone returning back to the fishing game. Not that I wanna be a pro fishermen or anything but just knowing my stuff is very good so thank you.
Really interesting, I'm going to try it. Although for me the best part was watching you deal with the pike - especially getting bit off. All I can say is welcome to the party pal!
I have a few Ned worms which haven't caught anything. We don't have smallmouth here in my SoCal lake, and lots of hazards underwater so the Ned rig just gets snagged. Now I think I know how I will use them with reckless abandonment. Bye Ned!
Technique definitely works ... We've been throwing ripped Senkos on the back of our jigs on Cherokee and Douglas Lakes since the 90s here in East Tennessee
Im not lying when i couldn't afford other baits or find baits like senkos neds and worms i was using them on jigs myself it actually works now im more fortunate to do both and much more but less to say this works
Unreal cold water trailer. Once water hits < 55 degrees, I have it tied on. Some of my best bites came fishing it during a partial freeze. … I also use it on a swim jig during late fall around wood.
@@TylersReelFishing oh yeah, I ran out of swimbait trailers for my swim jig last fall and all I had with me were stick baits. Cut one down and ended up catching them even better. In the colder water temps of the northeast, if an keitech easy shiner isn’t producing i now put on a cut down stick bait and will catch them swimming it by wood, cement structures.
I think geography and speciesbheavily play into this. Where I am, River smallmouth feed HEAVILY on bloodworm, washed crawlers, milli/centipedes, salamander, baby water snake/copperhead, and even some sand worms that get up above the brackish. So senko trails absolutely work better…not that the craw doesn’t though. Lake smallies and of course largies I tend towards my comfort jig with craw
I don’t think it matters. But I did notice one thing that might. The pros were fishing for smallies and it seemed like you guys were on a largemouth lake. Maybe there is an advantage using a ned bait as a trailer when fishing for smallmouth. I don’t know 🤷🏼♂️.
Opened my first (and only jig I had on me) today at the lake. Tied it on and added a trailer. First cast I must have had something set wrong on my baitcaster because the bait violently stopped midair and the force caused the jig to snap off my line and go sailing into the lake. So depressed lmao
How about muddy water or murky? How about fishing at night? I always think that more action in those conditions is better because when you need to search the fish this makes more sense? I don't have much confidence to finesse fish at night
@@TylersReelFishing Do you use smaller baits or baits with less action to search fish in those conditions when bigger reaction type baits don't get a bite?
I've been using the worms on jig's and spinner sometimes chatter bait. It works one day I didn't have any plastic I found one in the color people was using and matched to the spinner. People that I was crazy doing that. Nice video
I've been using zman turds as jig trailers for a couple years now and I've honestly had so much more success by doing that instead of a craw or any other type of trailer.
I love how you always let us know about new things to try. One of my favorite things is trying new lures or casting methods. Now I’m gonna go watch your bass master bible study video again, great job Tyler. 👍🏼
You bet!
I was actually throwing a Ned trailer on a Bitsy Bug today and was slayin em! Came home and this was on my feed😂
It's Bitsy Bug all day for me too bud.
That’s amazing!

Yeah I saw that years ago

I was legitimately asking this question with my buddies for a couple weeks now, awesome you made this video, thank you!
Happy to help!
Beautiful lake - I live in MN and never get tired of seeing the different lakes.
I can't catch a fish on a jig to save my life. I will keep trying.
In Minnesota they are SO GOOD! Get yourself a juice jig or stealth feider, and hop it around grass edges! You’ll gain confidence quick
I like it how you take ya time and went down with this. Sum new for me too Tyler! Gonna try it this spring, soon once it’s opener. One more month left
Give it a shot!
“Old fashion chunkaroo” I’m sorry but I’m stealing that🤣
I’ve been using his line of “give him the business”. My daughter loves that one.
Im not even kidding I saw this video as I was fishing a jig
You look at TH-cam while you fish ?
Fr seems like fishing a jig is an activity not compatible w/ watching vids lol

Picked this up from the kayak angler Greg Blanchard. He kills em with this combo.
I need to text him about it

What were those two skinny fish that were also biting the ned jig?
Pike
Love the video Tyler, been enjoying all the videos dropping lately. I was wondering what the best power rod is for throwing a jig.
MH Fast or H Fast
@@TylersReelFishing Ok thanks
Can you use the same trailers on your jig and put them on your spinnerbait
Nice video young man, if I may make 1 suggestion.. Slow down your speech when addressing the cam. The rest of the time was perfect. All love
You almost face-flipped that last fish. I missed if you mentioned your jig weight--I'm wondering how much difference in fall rate would exist between the two trailers with a lighter weight jighead.
I think we were both using half ounce. That would definitely be something I’m curious about.
The ned jig…. Its a powerful tool! 2 killers in one
For sure!
Been doing it for a while. Instead of jig and pig I do what i call jig and eel. I use ribbon tale in Weeds.
Haha nice!
I use a soft plastic lizard 🦎 on my jigs usually and man they love it. The tail on the lizard looks like a swim bait on the retrieve with it's tail and limbs, if your having trouble finding a good trailer, try a lizard 🦎.

Glad it was helpful!
So it may not catch more but does it last longer
For sure
What is your favorite rod/reel combo
It’s hard to beat this one: bit.ly/3I4ALrP
Been doing this for years
To me, the straight tail looks like one of those goby.
Other guy back there at thend clearing backlash 😅
Happens to us all!
Not remotely new - 7 inch Senko is a standard jig trailer south of the border and has been for years - nice underwater footage though.
Never said it was new
👍
Good video 👍
Thanks 👍
Aggies + Math = 🤯
We are the best at it
i did that in 2006
Never heard of this jig company.

No shock the guy using the screen wins lol

Add a rattling Ned 🎤 🗣️
Good idea!
There is no way this makes a difference ( I’m 23 so I’m not as seasoned yet )
It just might I think!
another 20 and called yourself seasoned in life. Seasoned in bass fishing for sure. LOL
Haha seasoned I something
Did you just say..."go bucks"...? Unsubscribe.
This video confirms my theory that smaller bass are more likely to avoid large pinchers and the big bass aren’t intimidated by them. Hence catching more numbers with the worm trailer yet the biggest bass went for the craw trailer.
I totally could see that hypothesis being true
Next time yall do the “fish catching” test. Yall should switch rods every time someone catches a bass since one person might have a different fishing style than the other person.
Greg Blanchard was the first guy I really saw fishing the Ned Jig and having success with it.
and it being a smaller finesse jig to. not those big football ounce jigs!
I need to downsize it too
I am trying to up my jig game this year so this video is much needed! Thanks Tyler!
Same!

Scott’s underwater footage of this really shows the likeness to a craw in defensive position. I love it!

27 now when I finally released this video haha! Maybe I'm fully developed now, who knows

Good luck!
So what you’re saying is when the little ones bite my little flappy things off of my rage bug I don’t need to put a new one on?

Bass fishing as a sport involves overthinking. When the bite is tough use a Texas Rig. When the bite is good use a Texas Rig. 😊

OutKast juice jig. It’s linked in the video description
Ben Shapiro and Nick Fuentes had a baby. That baby likes to fish.

Well, sometimes they are😂
Tyler took you long to get “seasoned”. I’ve been fishing senkos on jigs since I knew what a trailer was
That’s fantastic
Sloooooooooow down, buddy. Breathe between sentences.
Can’t. Life is short😂
Interesting technique, I might try this soon! I feel like it would do good in conditions where the want less movement like in colder weather
Yes I could see that

Google earth a TON
I've been using zman turds as jig trailers for a couple years now and I've honestly had so much more success by doing that instead of a craw or any other type of trailer.
Your years behind the program
Glad I caught up now!
Learned this from Greg Blanchard. Not sure where he learned it
Probably older than we all think
I did this the other day with my girl cuz I ran out of rage bugs and she caught one first cast
Who would’ve thought?😂
Relatively seasoned in life......
