As a fishing veteran, I never really got into using jigs, crankbait, poppers, etc. This year, I want to try to get into using those kinds of bait cuz sometimes, worms aren't too effective for what I intend to go for.
If you are a freshwater fisherman, I'd recommend watching NDYakAngler, I've got a bunch of the same exact stuff he's got and I've had success although I'm an amateur.
Last year I never fished a jig, been fishing it for the last 4 months and broken my pb multiple times. I stray away from using crank baits and all the baits with treble hooks, nothing better than a jig, Texas rig or frog.
Crankbaits, rattle traps, spinner baits, buzzbaits, rooster tails, chatterbaits, and swim baits are all the baits I use. I don't have the patience for jigs, worms, etc
Try a buzzbait at night and since you have the patience for soft plastics try a weedles underspin hook that's in between 5-8/0 with a boot tail swimbait that's at least 5 inches and steady retrieve slow enough to keep bumping bottom. Those are the 2 ways I've caught bass over 5 pounds consistently besides a hollow body frog and chaterbait/crankbait. The wobble head is a great bait to dip your toe into faster moving baits while keeping your confidence in soft plastics and staying weedless.
I'm so glad you're spreading this method around. I'll always remember after a year and a half of trying to learn and catching absolutely nothing, I threw the ass end of a senko on a size 6 hook and threw on a snap float, thinking I might as well have some bait sitting out there while I tied on another lure that was bound to be unsuccessful. Before I had even finished tying the knot, the bobber had disappeared and I had my first trout. Soft plastic worms just plain work, but not all are made equal. I've done best with Yamamoto and the maxscent version of the general worm
@Hamiltime This is a rough time of year to fish from shore in most cases. This dude has a few videos where he shows how to use powerbait for trout, for a beginner there's a few things I'd recommend. Once April/may hits, try using an ordinary snap bobber with a few split shot, light line and a size 6 hook with half a live night crawler on it. Fish it close to shore, or as far out as you can cast. Or you can use the powerbait method, but what I find most success with is a leader between 6 and 2 feet long, with two powerbait "magnum floating eggs" in garlic scent. I push the eggs onto the hook until the second egg is barely still hanging onto the hook by just the eye. Then u wanna put half a nightcrawler on that, n you've got a floating live bait
yessir! had a very similar experience with my first crappie. Tried tons of jigs and none of them stuck. Then someone recommended using half of a beat up worm and it was endless slabs!
No! You don't have to cut them in half. Just always save your torn worms. Only use half if you're OUT of worms or if it's tough fishing. Downsizing most always gets more bites when it's tough.
Been doing this my whole life. I try to tell folks "All you need is a pack of finesse (straight) worms and a few (3/0 EWG Superline) hooks". Cast it out. Let it fall. Watch your line. 'Bounce' it thru the water with a 1-2, 1-2-3 rhythm. Let it fall again. Repeat. Spinning gear, thin line. Works everywhere.
@@dontcallanimalspetstheyare7871 God said we do with animals as we please , including catching and eating them . God also likes animal sacrifices the most .
Good stuff but if may, I'd like to see more about how you actually fish these lures/rigs. Quick overview of the knots you use and how you work the retrieve. Ik it's a lot to fit into 60s but it would help a ton. Cheers
My assumption is that since it’s just a plastic worm on a hook without any weight in front of it like a jig or Texas rig is that he fishes it like a fluke where you kind of swim/bounce it through the middle of the water column
@@kunaiwithchain5278 if you use a weight use a clamp weight . The little round one you squeeze on the line about 18 in up from the hook . In deep water cast let fall and start a slow retrieve
I would just let it free fall near the edge of a current in a river or maybe put a weight a foot or 2 up the line and let it sink to the bottom like others here have commented. I’ve fished similar setups in creeks and slayed bass.
Yes! Everyone posts videos of "how to catch such and such using a..." and all they show you is the bait and them catching the fish. They never explain how they work the bait, they just assume you know the action to use. I've been a rainbow trout fisherman my entire life because that's what my family likes to catch, but im trying to get into Bass and perch and whatnot, but there's hardly any videos that are actually helpful. I'd like to see a video on how to catch a specific species with the various different lures and baits and how to work them. Also knots would be helpful, and why you would use one over the other. As a trout fisherman, I've only ever used one knot so I'm clueless about knots
THIS!!! I have a bag full of soft plastics that i never use because I simply don't know how. I just stick to a simple soft plastics on a jig and that's my go to.
that all depends on the fish. Change it up until you find what they want that day, twitch it, dead stick it, straight retrieve, varied, fast, slow, it's all up to the fish. Color DOES NOT MATTER. you need 2 colors: something dark, and something bright. Dark water, dark lure. Clear water, bright lure. I like black and chartreuse, but like I said, it doesn't really matter, just match the shade to the water color to get the best visibility for the fish. If they see it and they're hungry, they will eat it.
Another video on the yum dinger…they make a 4” which is a great worm that u don’t need to trim…on a weightless t-rig set up it’s great….it falls differently than the senko and actually stays in the strike zone longer, it can dart and glide down at a shallow angle..it’s just got great action on a weightless texas rig that most worms can’t achieve…it doesn’t do too much or too little. They are also much cheaper!
I once caught a Perch that was about 5 or 6 inches long. And for some reason i just left it on my line as i was rowing back into the dock. By the time I got to the dock, i started reeling my line in and at first i thought i snagged like a log or something at the bottom on the lake cause my pole was bending like crazy but it didnt feel like a fish. My pole was bending so much i legit thought it was gonna snap. Long story short i tough it out and reel it in, come to see that i caught the biggest large mouth bass i had ever seen/caught. Thing was like 2 or 2 n half feet long and its head and mouth were gigantic. And it was all thanks to the perch i caught lol.
Hitting unseen snags/algae with a worm lure can be discouraging to a beginner. With a weedless topwater lure, you can see everything, and a topwater strike is WAY more fun
If anyone would like to disagree with me, I think having a night crawler on a hook and bobber is the easiest way to catch a fish not only because it doesn’t require any skill but casting and having eyes
Other good options would be some mepps spinners and beetle spins, curly tail grubs on jig heads (bought separately), and whopper ploppers, which can all be bought at your local bass pro or Walmart. I would recommend a size 2 plain mepps spinner, a size 3 dressed mepps spinner, and a size 4 dressed mepps spinner for your spinner arsenal. Reel these in at a moderate pace. For beetle spins, I would get a 1/8 oz and a 1/4 oz size. Use these by reeling them straight in at a medium pace. Use these in situations when it is too weedy for a mepps or you just need to change presentation. I would get some 3 and 4 inch curly tail grubs to pair with 1/8 oz jig heads (make sure hooks are small enough to fit into the grub and look up a tutorial on how to rig the grub on a jighead). Use these when fish want a more subtle presentation or are relating to the bottom. Just slowroll them in the middle of the water column or just above the bottom. You can also hop them off the bottom like a jig (find tutorial). You will know the grub has hit the bottom when the line goes totally slack. For whopper ploppers, just cast it out and let it sit on the surface until the ripples are gone. Then, start reeling it in until it makes a plopping sound. It should not be sputtering and splashing, but plopping. I would get the 75 size whopper plopper for a beginner. When you are using a subsurface cast and reel presentation, the bite will feel like a thump, sudden slack in the line, or weight at the end of your line. When you are jigging the grub off the bottom, you will either feel a tap or thump, feel no weight when you lift it, or see the line moving wierd (line moving to side, getting slack suddenly, tightening suddenly, can be very subtle so pay close attention). When you are using a top water like the whopper plopper, you will see a big blowup where your lure is or you will see the fish roll on your lure or suck it under the water with a whirlpool. When you get a bite, yank the rod up or to the side firmly, but not as hard as you can. Make sure the line is taut and has little to no slack when you set the hook. Then, just reel in the fish at a fast pace, but not as fast as you can. For a rod and reel, I would just buy a medium power spinning combo at Walmart and spool it up with 10 lb monofilament line. The rod should say somewhere near the handle “medium power”. Action doesn’t matter too much for beginners, but preferably get a fast or moderate fast action rod. It will say the action next to the power. To take the easy route, just attach the line to the reel using a piece of tape (like me, cause I’m lazy) and stick a pencil through the middle of the spool. Then just hold the pencil with your feet and reel until the spool is about 3/4 of the way full. The reel has a system called the drag. To set the drag correctly, put the line through all the line guides and tie on a lure. Then, adjust it with the knob on top of the reel until it is only somewhat difficult to pull line off of the reel. To make it tighter, turn it to the right, looser, to the left. To tie on the lure, use a knot called the improved clinch knot (look up a tutorial or find a google image). Always make sure to wet the knot with saliva before tightening it down, otherwise it will produce a weak knot. Now, just look up a tutorial on how to cast a spinning rod (do not get a spin cast rod because they are weak and don’t get a bait caster as a beginner) and go out fishing. Sorry for the long comment. Good luck!
@@txbassin why would you use a ned rig anyway? Ledger without lures and you’ll see the difference if you use ground worms or dendrobena worms. You’ll catch more than lures ever would.
@@FishingWivRhys when you are fishing up north it’s cold , meaning colder water the deeper it is the warmer it is, there for a ned rig is on the bottom and so are the fish. I live down in the south and when it’s gets cold this is what i do weightless worms don’t work well when it’s cold and deep fish want a lazy presentation.
@440-fishermandrock8 It will *eventually* sink, the goal is to achieve a faster sink to get the lure to an idle/resting position that the fish prefer when the weather is cold
In southern california, where i live, the bass like normal full texas rigs and jigs. I guess in some places you could use a ned rig or weightless but most of the time its full worms.
I go fishing all the time I’ve been doing it for 6 years but never had luck with soft plastics/artifical, my primary bait of choice is ,worms,bread,and shrimp.
I started fishing around 3-4 years ago, and I have caught many fish on my journey. I usually fish for pike in a nearby river it’s just loaded.. I love using jigs top waters and other things.
A few days ago I was catching a perch with my father on my dog the second one was a bullfish so we put the bullfish and my dad‘s knife into its head but then a few minutes later after we caught a perch we realize it was pregnant so we threw his babies back in the water
I wasn’t catching anything for two hours today and then remembered this and threw it on, caught a largemouth in about 5 casts, just wanted to say thanks
I'm from Australia and I have never had freshwater fish but I like soft water but it's still really good to fish and it doesn't matter what waters you fish
A spinner will catch a huge variety as well. So far on cheap Mepps spinners I've got pike, bass, trout, catfish (only in one small spot), perch and sunfish.
I’m 14, and Me and my dad have been going fishing our our ski boat that we put a trolling motor on…. We have tried everything we could possibly tie on but here in Alabama, the only thing we’ve caught a fish on in a while is a red bug speed worm on a Texas rig. Good video 😊
Your pickerel is really a northern pike! The 2 look kinda the same, just ones golden, and the pike is green like the swamp because in the summer, it tastes like the swamp
@Outdoor Adventures with Noah ya I see that now, I didn't even know those were a species! I was today years old when I found out about CP "chain pickerel"..... lol
I fished beetle spins as a kid, 45 years ago. Then I discovered the Roostertail. It outproduced the beetle spin 3 to 1. This is because it has 3 hooks to the BS's 1. They're also located on it's rear, making them more effective at hooking biting fish. I've caught big fish on both but the Roostertail is my 'Survival Lure'!
I have tilapia near me, blue tilapia lot's of them from half to 2kg, and fly fishing with nymphs has been proven even better than live worm. Though, you need clear water for it to be effective. Black nymph with golden head, try that out.
The difference is the way the spool is set up. The spool on a spinning combo is parallel to the rod and the line is brought in by a spinning wire that spins around the spool by the crank of the handle. A bait caster spool is perpendicular and has a loop inside the reel that moves back and forth while the spool turns.
I haven't really ever caught anything on senkos but people in my area will use almost any common lure continuously and fish won't even bite bait but I still surprise a few people with some nice fish though
I nail crappie left and right locally in a very pressured lake on a small crawfish diver bait. Cant hardly catch anything else outta that lake but have caught a bunch of nice 8-11 black cappie outta there
Theres a torpedo, baby torpedo and tiny torpedo. I have some baby torpedoes and on a good day the spots will hit it every cast no matter where you throw it. You should work it kind of like a popper where you pop pop and let it sit but I have had them hit at it almost a dozen times in between the bank and boat reeling it in as fast as possible.
Have you ever tried the technique you were using outside of that pond. What I mean is will it work in a lake just as well? And have you ever tried using that on ned rig Jig head? Believe that you would get better results
Been Fishing 50+ Years, Your Video was a Good Bait for me, But I Know from Experience the Best Way is Fish 🐠 somewhere that Has had no Pressure, and Spring 🌱🌼 Time Nice and Hungry, Before it Gets Hot,.
Over the summer last year I caught my first ever fish on a crankbait, it was a top water crank and the fish that bit it was my first ever black crappie, so to me that was a double kill
Ironically, yesterday I went to a new lake and up in a tree, attached to a broken piece of 3 ft line was this exact 1/2 worm/hook, with much effort I got it out of the tree and in my tackle box…..I was wondering about the lure since I’m new to fishing…glad I saw your vid
I'm so new in this fishing world. One day i go fishing with my brother-in-law, i used worms and even shrimp, only to know that the fish didn't actually grab the bait. They SNAKCING on it , bit by bit, until it's gone. We're fishing in an artificial pond , the fishes are mostly catfish and tilapia fish.

I started fishing around 3-4 years ago, and I have caught many fish on my journey. I usually fish for pike in a nearby river it’s just loaded.. I love using jigs top waters and other things.
Thanks for the tip. Going to try it out. Wish me luck 🤞
Thanks for the tip but do you use weights? I am new
First water warm up of spring, you can throw anything on a hook and catch something.
One time I caught a crappie on a popper…
A few days ago I was catching a perch with my father on my dog the second one was a bullfish so we put the bullfish and my dad‘s knife into its head but then a few minutes later after we caught a perch we realize it was pregnant so we threw his babies back in the water
I wasn’t catching anything for two hours today and then remembered this and threw it on, caught a largemouth in about 5 casts, just wanted to say thanks
When ever I use this tactic it always gets me crappie,bass,bluegill and pumpkin seeds
It's that worm. That color with black fleck is absolute slayer. It's my go to.
*video starts with a fish with a wide open mouth*
Me:myes,i think i might start to go fishing for fleshligh-
FISH!FISH!i mean fish...
I'm from Australia and I have never had freshwater fish but I like soft water but it's still really good to fish and it doesn't matter what waters you fish
I always accidentally catch crappie when fishing for bluegill 😭💀
Mini crank baits are my favorite lures for crappie. Those are also simple and catch many species
A spinner will catch a huge variety as well. So far on cheap Mepps spinners I've got pike, bass, trout, catfish (only in one small spot), perch and sunfish.
For me, the challenge is finding a spot where they'll bite 😂
I love how you are disappointed with catching a chain pickerel but in Texas I’d be so excited to catch one lol
How the heck did he catch a perch on a lure as big as the perch itself?
Float and Fly is hands down the best crappie tackle where I am.
Crappies are hands down the best fish eating wise and catching wise
I’m 14, and Me and my dad have been going fishing our our ski boat that we put a trolling motor on…. We have tried everything we could possibly tie on but here in Alabama, the only thing we’ve caught a fish on in a while is a red bug speed worm on a Texas rig. Good video 😊
Your pickerel is really a northern pike! The 2 look kinda the same, just ones golden, and the pike is green like the swamp because in the summer, it tastes like the swamp
No that is definitely a chain pickerel they are green with a black chain like pattern on their sides
@Outdoor Adventures with Noah ya I see that now, I didn't even know those were a species! I was today years old when I found out about CP "chain pickerel"..... lol
And one of my favorite go to baits is the beetle spin I just caught like a 4 pounder on it today
What sizes do you prefer for different stuff?
What stuff?

@@spice7620 I was using my ultralight rod 8lb test with a white 1/8 ounce beetle spin but I’ve caught another 4 lb bass on the black one
I fished beetle spins as a kid, 45 years ago. Then I discovered the Roostertail. It outproduced the beetle spin 3 to 1. This is because it has 3 hooks to the BS's 1. They're also located on it's rear, making them more effective at hooking biting fish. I've caught big fish on both but the Roostertail is my 'Survival Lure'!
I don’t recommend plastic bait cuz even if it is efficient and super super easy it’s bad for the environment and harmful for us too
Well I’m no veteran but I have a question. Do peacock bass like eating bread because when I caught one off of bread I didn’t know what to say.
Thats what I do everyone looks at me like IM crazy lmao
Nice could you give a tutorial on how to work the lure I have never used one before 😂
Loved all of your short videos. but in my area here in the philippines the best for beginners is bait and wait with a worm. Target is Tilapia.
I have tilapia near me, blue tilapia lot's of them from half to 2kg, and fly fishing with nymphs has been proven even better than live worm. Though, you need clear water for it to be effective. Black nymph with golden head, try that out.
How do you work the work? Do you let it sit there, or throw and reel?
That would be great to know
the secret to catching fish is you have fish where there are fish.
I caught a 1-2 lbs black crappie on a panther Martin spinner while pier fishing. I didn’t even know they could get that big!
Hey what’s the difference between the spinner rid and the other rods?? Please I’m very curious
The difference is the way the spool is set up. The spool on a spinning combo is parallel to the rod and the line is brought in by a spinning wire that spins around the spool by the crank of the handle. A bait caster spool is perpendicular and has a loop inside the reel that moves back and forth while the spool turns.
How do you work this lure?
Also what factors play into choosing how to work it?
The crappie looks like the green gills from Zelda: Twilight Princess
What type of hook do you use? Size?
2/0 or 3/0 ewg
Thanks for the new idea
I find the green worms with a pink jig head works best for bass and crappie in my area
4’ worms are the GOTO
I haven't really ever caught anything on senkos but people in my area will use almost any common lure continuously and fish won't even bite bait but I still surprise a few people with some nice fish though
It actually works I caught a 6.2 lb largemouth on one
I nail crappie left and right locally in a very pressured lake on a small crawfish diver bait. Cant hardly catch anything else outta that lake but have caught a bunch of nice 8-11 black cappie outta there
Could you do another heddon torpedo lure video please? I love your stuff and am thinking about buying one of those lures.
Theres a torpedo, baby torpedo and tiny torpedo. I have some baby torpedoes and on a good day the spots will hit it every cast no matter where you throw it. You should work it kind of like a popper where you pop pop and let it sit but I have had them hit at it almost a dozen times in between the bank and boat reeling it in as fast as possible.
Do you have to twitch it or keep reeling it in or anything specific or do you just let it sit there like a real worm and a bobber
What pound line do you use on your ultralight? Im in the market for one and wondering.
How do use it? Do you let it sink or reel it in slow/fast? Would like to learn!🤗
Thanks for the advice
You fish around Massachusetts, right? Need some good spots I live in blackstone
Ive got quite a few stacked in my tackle box, how do you move it? Jig it around slowly?
Shouldve explained what type of action your using
I use this to catch crappie at a golf course pond near my house and I use crankbaits and they are pretty effective for me
When me and my friend were bass fishing a huge choppy came and distorted my Lure
And sure enough
When u cast this, how are u retrieving it? Are u slow reeling, reeling with a pause. Anyone care to chime in im all ears, new to fishing here myself
Use jigs and minnows for catching croppies
I do the exact same thing except I use a 1/8 jighead
Have you ever tried the technique you were using outside of that pond. What I mean is will it work in a lake just as well? And have you ever tried using that on ned rig Jig head? Believe that you would get better results
Which size hook should we use? Also should we use a weight
Been Fishing 50+ Years, Your Video was a Good Bait for me, But I Know from Experience the Best Way is Fish 🐠 somewhere that Has had no Pressure, and Spring 🌱🌼 Time Nice and Hungry, Before it Gets Hot,.
You can catch crappie all day long with an 1/8 oz jig head and a white curly tail grub.
Never caught anything but a bass on a senko
You can use a stubby soft bait like the Hideup stagger roller
Over the summer last year I caught my first ever fish on a crankbait, it was a top water crank and the fish that bit it was my first ever black crappie, so to me that was a double kill
That yellow perch looked like a redfin
Ironically, yesterday I went to a new lake and up in a tree, attached to a broken piece of 3 ft line was this exact 1/2 worm/hook, with much effort I got it out of the tree and in my tackle box…..I was wondering about the lure since I’m new to fishing…glad I saw your vid
Basically a Ned rig
I'm so new in this fishing world. One day i go fishing with my brother-in-law, i used worms and even shrimp, only to know that the fish didn't actually grab the bait. They SNAKCING on it , bit by bit, until it's gone.
We're fishing in an artificial pond , the fishes are mostly catfish and tilapia fish.
Black and yellow swirl trickworm is where it's at
Looks like a small weightless Texas Rig
