I love the Aruka Shad by Spro
Cotton Cordell spot is my go-to
I was on drugs for 10 years got out of jail had no job hobbies no hope. I remember my grandfather use to take me fishing so I opened up his old tackle box and pulled out a 1/4 rattle trap ,went to a local pond with a spinning set up with a 5ft rod I caught a 1 pound bass and from that moment on in 2016 I’ve hooked on bass fishing. It’s now 2023 and have almost 7 years clean I thank god everyday for fishing
The tug is the drug brother. I am happy and congratulate you on your revival-recovery. Cheers to many more🎣👊😎
@@adrianalvarado7407 Thank you 🙏. Appreciate your support.
Rip to the LV😭😭. At least you mentioned it for us west coast guys.
Love y’all’s back and forth it is fun
Rat-t-Trap 9 out 10
For sure
There’s bass in Indiana everywhere brother Adrian 18:36 😅 largies and smallies and spots
Love these bro thank you
Red eye shad is the Perfection of the trap !!
Good to see video on blade baits, I would likr to a top prop baits ' pompadours, devils and wood choppers
Great video!
Never lackin always trappin
Great job
Rattlin Rap is my go to!
Same here, coke covers all flavors of drinks, Good idea need to do a rate the bait on soft plastic jerk baits, good content
Great video again. Can’t wait for the next one
Really glad Adrian stuck up for the SPRO. Thing is dope.
Spinnerbait, favorites
Caught 1000’s growing up on rattletrap and cotton Cordell’s in the local ponds! Firetiger or chrome blue
Years ago I caught a 3 pound brown trout on the snake river, eastern Idaho. I threw original Bill Lewis rattle trap, and that fish tore that bait to pieces , cracked the sides of it and pulled the hooks out from the body. That fish wanted it bad!! That was fun!
Easy to relate to Adrian, since we are from the same area and I frequent tackle direct as I drive by it daily. Like he said we catch a lot of small fish. Typically 1-2lbs. I’m more likely to catch a 4lb pickerel than a 4lb bass
Flatsided crankssssss
Thanks
Out in California fishing Lake McClure I caught an 8lb catfish throwing a Cotton Cordel lip less.
Clear Lake, Calif. Stayed at Bob Todd's marina/motel/Ranger dealership. Let me wife sleep in while I went out early. Threw a chrome-blue back Trap and boated more than a dozen in little over an hour. Caught them all around the small islands very near the motel.
Spinner Bait rate the bait!
More More we want More!
13 Fishing actually makes some great traps with great hooks.
Many moons ago my box had rat-l-trap and a shad rap. The rat caught 20x more fish for whatever reason
The original Bill Lewis rattle trap had a different sound compared to the ones after late 70’ to early 80’s
Let's gooooo appreciate yall, let's get a spook review
This is dope!! 🔥🔥🔥
Would like to see a review on 6sence lipless
Strike King red eye is a killer. 11/10
To this day I have never found anything that beats a Bill Lewis rattle trap.
Love these videos! Found MDJ through the MLF teams series and really liked your approach to fishing and your high level of positivity! These videos carry it forward and show what good friends all you competitors are!
Next rate the bait … swim jigs or frogs or poppers .
in Tx. we say coke to all soft drinks
Great video but you need to try the Booyah trap its the same as the Old Excalibur One knocker great bait, how about a video about the different chatterbaits, and spinnerbsits
Here In the North it’s all called a Pop
Do soft baits in either flipping baits(beavers), creatures, craws, flukes, swimbaits
I fish Geist all the time...Great lake to throw anything you want...
MDJ! Hook me up with some lake names when you were in western MN with Zona! 😉
Interesting to get 3 different views from across the country on the same bait.
I feel you dc around my house if we ask for a coke everyone knows to ask what kind
Great videos!!! Have you done underspins?
Let’s hear DC talk about some swim jigs
Love the spro lipless man! Great bait
North of the border we go to the fridge for a pop!! Great vid boys. keep the content coming.
Let's go boys maybe I can fish with you on the flint river this year I live close lots of shoal bass smallies large heads. Good luck to you all.
Great video,see y’all at Redcrest!

I have thrown a trap plenty and have caught them on it. But, if the waters dirty enough for a trap, I'd much rather throw a jackhammer now that I found a good rod for it. The only time I still to throw it is yoyoing a 3/4 over deep offshore grass, that can get bit even with a little clearer water.
Here in the south we are like DC a coke can go for any flavor, really enjoyed this learned something on these baits, but my favorite is the OG rat-l- trap 1/4 oz red craw color!😎
Aruku shad is a great trap. I bring the nose in the rocks.
Hey MDJ you need to try the 6th sense suspending lip less bait
lol, luv it
You guys make me laugh and great info! How about a rubber worm breakdown, size and color straight or curly tail? I love the Zoom curly tail 6 inch green pumpkin red or black flake. God Bless!
Lots of epic lipless cranks that weren't even mentioned. There is a lot that the "OG" trap can't do and isn't good for. They each have their own situations that they excel in so you're doing yourself a major disservice if you try to just stay loyal to one particular brand or bait.
Love anything that y'all do together and cracking up keeping it real
I take that back I'm not sure what I had back then but the OG is the best till this day
No LC LV or Jackall TN? I would even throw the Magic Man in there.
Are you ready for next week on Clark’s hill
Fizzy drinks are called POP that is all.
Q tips???????????????????
exactly
Crème worms….black/blue tail
Great video, when I was a kid I used my grandpa's Heddon Super Sonic that dates back to the late 50's. No rattling though. I think the Tat-L-Trap came out a decade later. Sonic caught some fish.
Try out them 6th sense traps! Them some bad boys…
Always great videos from all y'all man. Let's see a video with big swimbaits. Y'all ever throw em?
All imma say is try to drag the spro trap like a football jig and see what happen
Og was the water gator
I enjoy rate the bait even more than watching a good tournament.
Great work gentlemen!
We say pop in East Tennessee
Good stuff fellas! I enjoy these immensely!
Love the videos! I'd love to see best pond or bank lures reviewed. Y'all stay blessed!
Love your work lads!
Mark , I really enjoy your channel and your tips. I have bought three Platinum spinning reels and really like them. I’m from Indiana and have been knowing Jacob since he was about twelve. Black guy that’s a friend of Kevin Canada we used to fish together on Morse Resevior . It’s a pleasure watching you guys as pros! Catch ‘em’
Harold Grundy
Guy's great info. Funny thing is I have lots traps & never caught anything on them. So I hardly throw them.
This is one of the coolest styles of videos I've seen , watch the whole thing and was like oh dam it's over
That chili craw red eye shad is a bad dude!! An old school aqua-flash bill Lewis is hard to beat! Wish I could find some more! @MDJ!
Man I watch all yalls channels all the time..I stay on the notification button for sure..I say do a video of all four of you in one boat..most fish wins...now that would be classic..good luck
The “pico perch” was the og lipless. Before the trap
i want to make a 1/2oz rat-l-trap box with only 12 colors what rat-l-tarps colors would you pick i want a variety but i want some colors that will work in the spring some that are good for the fall some that are good for the winter and some that will work for the summer and if there is room some colors that can work for a situation that you need a certain color for
Aruka shad has better hardware than the rat l trap to me. They have sharper but thinner hooks than the rat l trap but that’s always been a plus for me especially when the fish are just swiping at it and not choking it. It’s my go to lipless crank next to the red eye shad and lv500.
In Florida it's either coke or soda. I call all lipless traps.
The Cordell Hot Spot had a single rattle. At first the weight was glued in and some of the weights came loose and guys started catching bass on them better and Cotton Cordell started making a single rattle version even before the Rat-L-Trap. The Cordell Super Spot was the second version of the Cordell Hot Spot. I caught a 11-3 on a Super Spot.
Dude Mark, y’all left off the ONLY level 10 lipless! The Jackall TN60 or TN70 will blow your dang mind on its effectiveness!!!
Hey bring me a Coke! What kind? Sprite is fine🤣🤣🤣
Jigs and swim jigs
Super cool series 😊
LV 500 is the king out west.
Great content keep it up
great video. size up some squarebills
just watched the squarebill video.
XR50 , and thats my final answer 🙂
I love how real these videos are! Keep up the great work!
10/10
MDJ, we need the Frog episode of this! Delta guy might know a thing or two about one
I can't believe you didn't have the floating trap in the line up from Bill Lewis. Chrome and blue or chrome and black. 10 out of 10 on the coosa don't tell D.C. he's taken enough of my entry fees. Lol. Love the videos
You mentioned how you all change your hooks I'd love to see a hook video that would be great!!! Keep up the good work boys
Almost be willing to bet all of them would say owner st35 or st36.
Coke can be mtn due sprite Dr Pepper I’m 17 from Alabama
You forgot the best trap thats no longer made. The Xcalibur XR50 and XRK50
