For a shrimp lure I use the 6th sense Crube. I also use these for stripers and sturgeon in the Sacramento delta. I've actually had luck recently with 35-year-old Mann's 7" paddle tail worms (Yamamoto makes one like it now)
You guys got me fishing Free Rig last year over Texas Rig. I dont fish soft baits much at all. I did alittle around the early spawn this year . Good stuff as always . I may have to dig my worm rig out and toss around some plastics. See u all Sunday Same Bat time Same Bat Channel.
The big the DoLive shrimp on a 3/32 -3/16oz free rig is🔥🔥🔥 around docks and cover. Pretty much the same thing you'd do with a brush hog type bait on a t-rig but more finessier(if that's a word) yet with the same heavier tackle. Free rigging with DoLive beavers, big gill flats, or whatever has become my go to flipping/pitching technique. The Nishine namazu is also a great choice.
I've found a love for the SMH worms from Zman on my free rig. I use a 2/0 Double Edge Ryugi and when I give slack the worm will pull line and float back up. The worm is perfectly vertical the entire time. I'd think it's something completely different from most of the stuff fish are seeing out there.
Can you do a video on free rigging.. I've seen quite a few and many times it looks like they're just using unpeged Texas rings.Some use Bobber stops.Is it more about the way you retrieve the rig?
I’ll get too see you guys one day when I visit from the land down under, I’ll probably raid all your smaller baits for bfs back here. Osp dolive shrimps slay here in AU on black and yellowfin bream Keep up the content been watching for awhile but only realised I wasn’t subscribed!
On a slightly off topic note, the windbuster is souring on me a bit. Not a fan of how short the handle is, so I can’t tuck it fighting fish. I know you mentioned the Utility player spin for slightly lighter free rig, what about it for wacky rig?
I've been using the Dolive Beaver as a jig trailer, and the appendages rip off even on the cast. Disappointed, thought I'm not sure if it's cause I'm using the smallest version and it tears too easily.
@@thehookuptackle_usa the action is awesome without a doubt. I've seen it with my own eyes. But even on a BFS setup it tears easily on a cast if I use too much force. Perhaps I'll need to explore tougher baits for my style of fishing.
I’ve actually had the opposite experience they get bit! They last me a good amount of bites. If it’s a jig usually use a fínese heavier jig less force to cast like a kietech football. They get crushed by smallies up north.
1. Is trick to free rig a plastic that floats? 2. You guys got me hooked (crack)on lavante But they went up $50 bucks Then as my dealer (dope dealer lol) You don't have the product, is this because supply chain? All in fun guys , great shows
First! Literally sitting on the checkout page with a world expedition rod and a tat 200 in my basket lol. Might pull the trigger by the end of the day....would love a discount code or something to help me decide
Thank you for watching! Valkyrie world expeditions are dope! They’re also going to sell out and it’s going to be a while before the next production run - so keep that in mind 👍🍻
I haven’t tried the free rig . Just looks like a Texas rig to me. I thought guys would be putting more action into the bait . To create more separation between the bait and weight. But every time I see it being used. It’s fished just like a Texas rig. I don’t see the point.
😂 "Story Time With Ben" I'm down! Get Ben all stony and let him loose! I bet Ben has some Hella Stories! 😅

A lot of options. Last week I tried the FreeRig in MX. Using Zoom Magnum Lizards I caught 30 LMB in about 90 minutes, including a 7.52. I’m sold!

Favorite channel and online shop now, awesome!
Thank you for watching! And thank you for your business! 👊🍻
I like the Z Man TRD floating good for me nice and free.

The Reins rockvibe shad has done great for me on the free rig. Has a ton of action

I like the horizontal fall. Need to get the spark shad into the game.
Ive had great success using the quiver worm
As always, awesome video brotha!
Ben teaching us the ways of tackle porn with the Vibra shrimp: "vulva-ish claw thing", "it's gonna be very natural" & "it's gonna be tight" 😂😂🤣
Haha, you hear that too. He says these things so natural it's hilarious. Got me worked up gonna have to get some of those for sure. 🤣😂

Supposed to fall on slack line. Watch your line. When it gets down you can shake a few times then reel and cast back
I’ll get too see you guys one day when I visit from the land down under,
I’ll probably raid all your smaller baits for bfs back here.

Question for Ben,
Do you throw a 1/2 to 3/4 oz jackhammer on the MB Madbull?
Could you show the different types of weights that can be used for this technique,Thanks !
Love the video's..keep em coming Ben.
My best free rig success has been on a baitcater with bigger creatures like a Keitech Crazy Flapper. 3/8 oz weight on 12 or 14 pound fluorocarbon
Dope! 🍻
What kind of hook and size are you putting on the spark shad?
On a slightly off topic note, the windbuster is souring on me a bit. Not a fan of how short the handle is, so I can’t tuck it fighting fish. I know you mentioned the Utility player spin for slightly lighter free rig, what about it for wacky rig?
What do you think about the deca mmz on a free rig?
The deathadder stick 5.5 is crazy good on a free rig too
What's your opinion on free rigging floating plastics? I was using the Nikko Hellgrammite and caught a really nice smallie.
What about the OSP HP Shadtail as a free rig bait?
Y'all ever use the Free Rig to target larger trout? I think I might have to try it in a lake near me with a ton of weeds.
I've been using the Dolive Beaver as a jig trailer, and the appendages rip off even on the cast. Disappointed, thought I'm not sure if it's cause I'm using the smallest version and it tears too easily.
I feel the same about the sleeper baits…that too fin that hides the hook always rips off so easy
Man we’ve been crushing them with the beaver as a trailer! 🤷🏼♂️. It’s definitely not a durable bait but it gets bit for us really well!

@@JuanPerez-fy4jm so you can't bomb it out with a lot of force too?
Do you think the Yamamoto Fat Ika might work as a free rig bait??????
Is there a way to order online for pickup at shop?
That vibra shrimp looks 🔥🔥🔥 definitely gotta stop by soon and pick up one
Guys have been catching them good on that!
Here's a real under the radar free rig bait. Pro point lures the bug bug Jr, and lil bugger. Loaded the boat on 5 straight cast last week.
Sakamata shad color #146 is the one to throw in clear water
OSP dolive shot is a good free rig bait, you’re welcome.
I’ve had amazing success on floating plastics.. have you tried it yet?
1. Is trick to free rig a plastic that floats?
2. You guys got me hooked (crack)on lavante
But they went up $50 bucks
Then as my dealer (dope dealer lol)
You don't have the product, is this because supply chain?
All in fun guys , great shows
This dude is so high in these videos. Like 2 edibles and 10x dab tokes deep type shit lol.
Great video
How well does a free rig do in a river?
It does great around deeper banks for me. My only issue is around riprap. The tungsten weight gets snagged in those areas.

Can't discount those brands I think bud, that's a sick rod tho I'm looking at them too
something is missing, oh wait... WHERE IS THE ORION lol

Please stop talking about the free rig. I'm going to be making a lot of money on it before it becomes too popular.
Why invest a fortune in a showroom and high end baits, and get your test tank out of the salvage yard
I think the old ass boat as a test tank surrounded by $1k rods and reels and baits is awesome
Why call them shrimp when they don’t look like shrimp it more like centipedes?
Too much bs get to the point!
What is the best size hook 🪝 for that 8inch 🪱?
