Big believer in the Zoom Ol’ Monster and Magnum Ol’ Monster. Love the Mann’s 9 inch hardnose ribbon tail too. Both of those have gotten big bites for me. I used to turn my nose up at Zoom lures, but I learned how effective they are last summer and have since I repented of my error. I’m trying to learn how to trust all three of your experimental lures too Gene. I have magnum Tricks, have had Coffee Tubes and Senkos sitting around for years. So, I have much to learn. Thanks Gene.
on the tube. I like the Owner twist lock in 4O or 5 O . Fl bass love them. Fish it like senco, lift and drop' good luck!
That senko wacky rigged is my go-to in a kayak. Great video as always Gene 👍.
Man I LOVE fishin a tube. I use it all year round fishin north Georgia lakes. They are especially good for catching spotted bass.
Texas rig it with a wide gap hook and skin hook it to make it hang free... The biggest secret I have learned, especially around rocks is to put a glass bead between the tungsten sinker and tube. You are correct that almost noone around here uses them, but I've put a lot of fish in the boat and money in my wallet at tournaments with them.
What’s your preferred weight for fishing them? I’ve tried them with a 1/8 oz but have also has success with 1/16 oz
You are a bass fishing genius.... I love every single one of your videos.. keep on keeping on brother.. GO DAWGS!!!!!!!
I appreciate that!
I love the approach you always take for angling. Takes the luck right out of fishing!
Yes it does!
We like the tubes up north because they slaughter everything. Pike, musky, walleye, lake trout, you name it. The best one I've fished is the Craw Tube by Big Bite Baits. Swim it, drop it, drag it, doesnt matter. It will be interesting to see if I can catch anything on it down south!
Very cool!
You taught me so much in the last couple years! Inspired me to make a channel myself!
Proud of u
Why did you stop?
I do love a rage bug. Man that thing is off the charts.
Alright, so I bought a lake house two years ago (on Lake Jordan in Alabama), but have never fished in my life. I have a boat and love to cruise the water, but hey, if you're living on the water ya might as well learn how to fish, right? Gene, your videos on beginner stuff have been a godsend and I really appreciate you taking the time to make them. God bless ya!
Thank you T.J. I really appreciate that.
Awesome video brother! Thank you. I'm sad you didn't mention the brush hog. I've caught a lot of fish on that bait.
Gene, IF you've seen/read any of my comments, you know I'm no noob. Been T Riggin since many watchin were born. That said... Vids like this... I TAKE NOTES! LITERALLY!! Thanks!
The Senko is my mainstay. 99.9% of the time; I throw it weightless. Secondly, the Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver in green pumpkin. They are killer!!
I got the Zoom Ol Monster because of it's big ol tail to fish the dark water creeks here in Eastern SC. I clip off most of the body and fish it weightless. Kind of looks like a leech in the water. Green Pumpkin is the color. Also the Zoom Fat Albert Grub. Killers!
Using the right ewg hook is just as important as choice of plastic as far as your texas rig staying rigged true as you fish it. Took me a while to learn this, to learn how much of a difference a hook makes. I love the mustad ewg grip pin hook, the keeper makes all the difference.
I put a piece of those squishy orange ear plugs soak in scent inside the tube and hold it in with a tooth pick . Texas rigged or nose hooked. Carolina rigged the ear plug keeps the tube floating off bottom.
Nice!!
Thinking of testing out the rage bug with the Texas rig. I usually use 3/0 and 4/0 size worm hooks.
New to bass fishing btw.
Gamakatsu are my go to hooks. Been fishing those since I was a teenager fishing for salmon. Sweet beaver was the deal.
Been throwing tubes since early 1990s. Go to in Susquehanna, Juniata and Potomac rivers for smallmouth and largemouth when present.
Question for you? Fishing a body of water that the main forage is alewives and bluegill what is the best bait I could throw?
Gene try the tube Texas rigged I live in Florida right now and a black red flake tube crushes especially in the summer and fall for me even in the "winter"down here some cold days it's all I could get bit on plus I'd love to see if you pickup some tips for using that setup.
Great video! Gene you should check out the X Zone Blitz worm for dragging worms. It floats straight up off the bottom too!
Hey Gene, give the weightless texas rig Senko an extended trail - you'll be converted. You don't need to fish it slowly back to the boat. My experience has been that 80-90% of the hits happen within a few seconds of the initial fall on the cast. And yes, I feel dumb offering you a fishing tip!
Best fishing channel out there!
Another great vid fluke ..man u r blowin up my dude...amazing thing u r doing here bro...u r changing lives buddy and u don't even realize how much. Keep on showing out bro.
Thanks for the tips. Definitely gonna add this stuff to my arsenal!
Man that blunt force in black and tan on a shaky head has been the deal for me its been super tough up here in pa and thats what has been doing it for me
I freakin' love fishing Zoom 6" lizards. The junebug with chartreuse tail lizard is money for the fishing lake at work. The last 3..whats wrong with fishing a senko/stik bait? I dont buy the Yamamoto's much because of the price but give me a pack of Yum Dingers in Carolina Pumpkin/Chartreuse or Watermelon seed/chartreuse and I am a happy fish catching dude. I recently discovered the Zoom magnum finesse worm and I really like them too. Junebug is the juice for alot of the ponds and small lakes I fish. Never have fished a tube. Like you said Gene it's more of a nothern bass fishing thing. Want to get more experience in with the big worms.
I use Zoom Lizards all the time and caught some of my best fish ever.
Carl Cassella Zoom was the first lizard bait I ever used some 20+ years ago.
Thank you so much for this video! Very helpful
Nailed a banger with a tube 2 weeks ago here in Maine!
Moved to Arizona from Vermont and I seem to get some funny looks flipping tubes around heavy cover. They seem to dissipate after 5-6 fish.
that wall is my dream!!!
At 5:11 Flukemaster wanted to have relations with that D Bomb lol.
Yet to throw a lizard, may have to purchase some. Thanks for a great video, looking forward to the next one 👍
Awesome information! Thanks for sharing! Big thumbs up!
Have you tried the Senko on a 4/0 weightless? It's great for shallow cover.
"It's got a nice little spiral spawl...fall." LOL 15:28
Hey brother......love your videos. Always good topics. That being said, quick off-topic question cause i value your opinion. Do you still use the Slipstream torqeedo/power pole bracket and if so how do you like it? Thanks so much in advance......stay safe.
I don’t use it right now. I’ve been testing out others but it’s a great mount. I totally recommend it.
Finally got a small mouth today on some zoom worms. Carolina with texas hook. Dragging the worm slow slow. Took about 30 seconds. The worm was gone, is that normal?
Great info, I have done very well with missile baits D Bombs and the D Stroyer , actually do much better with the baby D Stroyer than the D Bombs , also have a friend that throws a tube here in Tennessee and does well, I keep saying I'm going to throw one but never do haha
Lizards are great, but I’m a little surprised there wasn’t a brush hog or similar lure in the mix. Ignoring why you don’t... If you did fish one, how would you fish it?
If you haven't tried the rage recon from strike king you should. Thing is awesome. Like the best of two world's. Got the ribs like the d bomb but in a 8 inch worm
Gene, pegged or unpegged, great video, love Tuesdays....
Both! I mostly fish it pegged though
New bass fisher here. Threw craws last night for the first time and had an “issue” with the bass ripping the claws off, but not hitting the body.
First cast, violent strike then slack. Reeled in and saw 1 claw gone. Next cast to the same spot and same thing. Reeled in and no claws left.
Changed craw out and same thing happened.
I feel like I’m just wasting money
Those. Bites were bluegill ,. Not bass
I’ve been Texas rigging flukes lately no weight and man have they been hitting it mostly green with red flake
i was waiting for you to mention how like oily or idk what is on the d Bombs but they are more slippery then other beaver style baits that ive tryed anyways
I have grown fond of the Zoom Super Salty U-Tail worm.
Alright gene i was watching ur witch lures for witch rod and the one was on what u said was ur favorite rod and you keep saying medium action throughout the video did you mean medium power with a fast tip or do you mean to say moderate action so medium heavy moderate action
Caught some nice ones with EWG U Tail worms
😂 The worms that are more fatter are more better 😂 Nice video .. keep them coming...
I love throwing tubes on the Ned
Nice info. Appreciate you sharing.
those tubes.. try to rig it the opposite way you would think.. if you have crawdads.. the way they fall makes them look like em and those tentacles look like claws as you pull it up.. at least thats what I always thought about tubes, and ika types the new tube I guess... I should try them here also.. when the crawdads show up in the rocks. trying new baits also can be a pay day especially if the smarter fish haven't seen those baits before.. I have also gotten a few on lizards though I don't use them much.. it might be a sign I should use them more. im on heavy pressure on the banks.. that get hit multiple times each day sometimes a lot . so I get skunks but I can still bring some up here and there.. some nice ones every once in a while also. this place is a grind fest though at least on the limited banks.
15:05 i know this isnt PG-13, but am i the only one who was thinking "yeah cause youre wrapped in a condom!"
When u say put a weight n the front...does that mean pegged or free weight???
What happened to “I’d rather watch paint dry” than throw a Senko? :)
I think its wacky rigged that he hates throwing them on
What should I use for river fishing, there is rocks and trees everywhere but no grass or anything. The main fish in the river is smallmouth also
I always have luck on river banks with spinners but i fish for largemouth so idk
Spro Rock Crawler lol
This guy is legendary
What line do you use when throwing a Texas rig?
Gene, does the pegs for your weights effect the rate of fall of the bait?
nope
Thanks Flukester!!!
Going to spend more time with the senko? Who are you and what did you do with Gene?
Lol. I gotta admit that a waky rigged green pumpkin senko saved me from being skunked this sunday tho..
Don't sleep on the senkos, I have caught many 6-8 pounders on them
Gary Yamamoto said that he designed the 5 inch senko for a 3/0 ewg hook
Dude these bugs are sweet. Why do you think that is?
I've never had any luck with the Rage bugs.
That senko gets it done
I caught my personal best on a rage craw which was 7.1 pounds
Tubes are great
Awesome video!!!!
Texas rig vs Carolina rig when dragging?
The0NLYTurtle depends on what your focus is man. If you are searching for them or on a big gravel flat or slopped banks it’s hard to beat the Carolina. But if you are dragging or flipping through cover or off drop offs the Texas.
You have so many baits in the background. Please can you send me some. Love your channel fluke
Love the videos, but you really need a lesson on bending hat bills lol
Can you cast a Texas rig?
Yes
Gotta throw that senko weightless! I’ve seen fish that won’t bite ANYTHING else, chew on senkos
No BioSpawn?
BioSpawn used to be the best around...
Black no flake senkos'!!! Do it!
Love your channel man! Roll Tide though!
Glad you enjoy it!
You don’t ever throw a craw like the rage craw on a Texas rig ? The strike king rage craw is always killer for me on a Texas rig.
Space monkey is my all time fav of all rage products.
My personal best was on a Berkeley fatty craw Texas rigged
I listened to everything you said in the begining so it though me off when u said medium action instead of power please help me flukemaster
lost boy it’s a common mix up. People say it all the time.
who does not love a lizzzard?
Shush! We do not speak about the rage bug! TW is going to sell out like they do when tactical bassin praises a bait!
It's ok tho, I still like you.
Straight tail worms.......then everything else.
Tell John David I said I and could u try to send me his gmail so I can talk to him.
Ana Castro tell your mom I will send her a Facebook friend request
Ok
Btw this is Sebastian
And send it to Ana Castro bc she is my my mom
Oh I forgot "GO BULLDOGS"
Awesome vid!!! Just did a quick vid on my channel about the strike King bug. Works as a great trailer on my strike King jigs check it out!
