    • @secretbassrigs
      @secretbassrigs 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In Southern California during the late 80's and early 90's, because big soft plastic Swimbaits for Largemouth Bass didn't exist yet, we used to throw custom rigged (shad head rigged w/stingers) 9" saltwater swimbaits, originally meant for "surface fishing" the Channel Islands. The actions on those things were so minimal compared to today's soft plastic Swimbaits. They were ugly, but the Bass that got spoiled on stocked trout didn't know any better back then. They don't work today lol

      @@Zaldaingerous right on bro! Thanks for the reply. I noticed a resemblance of the slider in the mag also. The Loaded is a sweet line through, though. Definitely one of a kind and well thought out. The hook sits perfectly in its place. Love it! Tight Lines and best wishes, sir!

    I have always loved steve kennedy. That tourney at Clear Lake got me hooked. I love his stance on sponsors also. I remember him saying one time that he had won enough money, he didn't need a bunch of sponsors. For a "regular" guy like myself, that was awesome to hear. Awesome pod.

      Regarding the Quickfire trigger configuration, it only took a week or two to figure out I had to hold onto the handle with my palm, when setting the hook, so the rotor wouldn't add slack when swinging backwards to its resting position.

    also, my buddy and i followed him around during that derby after his 30 sack. Though he did break the 4 day record; if the "hooking a fish outside the mouth" rule hadn't been a rule. he would have easily set a 4 day total weight record and single day weight record that WOULD NEVER be broken. i truly believe it. the fish he was throwing back... just mental.

    Frogs 250 put a split ring and treble hook on the nose ring under the line tie split ring. You won't miss the head shot bites. Using two split rings on the bottom hook hangers gives you more rotation and pull fewer hooks. I just weigh my factory rings and hooks first then adjust my upgrades to match the factory weight as close as possible. Works awesome!

    Glidebaits and hard Swimbaits are more for near surface presentations imo. I personally use soft swimbaits for deeper near bottom presentations. The Bucca Baby Bull Shad and Gill are great near the surface, fast with pauses or as a wake with a steady retrieve, my favorite.

    Excellent show with one of my all time favorites. The one and only Steven K. Hes told that story before about his job in college. I used to believe it absolutely but not so sure with onslaught of FFW. I do believe we don't keep enough bass these days though to eat. My dad never met one tonsmall to fry lol and we use to argue over him keeping them. Cant stand FFS but its probably here until they make it obsolete with better stuff. Chris you're show getting better and better man . God bless

    What's your favorite big swimbait rods for 7-10 inch baits including size, power, action. For hard glide/treble hook baits & big soft single hook baits?? I only have 1 big swimbait set up currently. A Diawa 7' 9" heavy power Mod-fast action, rated up to 6oz. It's been good for both hard & soft baits for me so far. Been throwing 8" magdrafts, defiant 210's, 8" savage gear wedge tail, drt K9'S, big shade glide.

    I have a citizen 7 with 13 calico bass, another with multiple white seabass, and a battleshad with 15 calico on it. The misfit citizen 6 has gotten me 9 calico bass and 3 wsb. They have lasted for me

    Im surprised the Bacca Burrito wasn't mentioned by SK. Maybe because its a jighook. The Burrito has an ideal technical design that is easy to overlook for a soft Swimbait.
    For any 5"+ class shad profile, it's my goto, 24/7. Anytime of the day. I'll be testing a black one at night a lot this season. The understated tail really has a thump and cadence that really triggers strikes. I also like the durability of the silicone. It's flexible yet has a hardness rating probably in the 20A range.

    That was Bad Ass pod cast. Kennedy is freaking bad ass, any one that fishies with a curado CU 200 knows what’s up. This was the best one yet in my opinion. Freaking good job keep up the good work. I have to ask is Trait a Noah Gradson fan, I noticed she was a Noah shirt on a different episode. Keep them come I enjoy the hell out of them.
