Love it in the grass. HH and that and one other thing I’m sure you will be making a vid on soon. Killing me. 😂😂😂. Thanks for the tips. Binged Alabama Waters over weekend need more of those gave me a lot of ideas thanks
Good video the only thing I might like to add is that you can also use the bigger rage swimmers and convert them to line through swimbaits. My favorite way is using braid to fluorocarbon leader Texas rigged my go to bait all year round but for some reason I definitely prefer the kitec over the rage swimmer because of the body style and movement of the bait
Rage Swimmer is awesome. I only use 4 colors but I have them in every size. You can always tell when Todd is on the fish. The second he catches he’s looking around to make sure know one is close. 😂😂
Not many people to my knowledge do this but don’t ignore flipping one into cover just as you would with a creature bait. Trust me I won’t be mad if no one tries it.
A rage swimmer on a flashy swimmer hook has been one of my favorite follow up bait for any of my topwater baits and honestly it's one of my favorite ways to fish it just going down the bank around grass when it is slick calm and high pressure. Most of the time I take the wire and blade off of it just because I think it makes it more subtle. It's a great piece of plastic and it's not showing any signs of going anywhere any time soon.
You can get the flashy swimmer hooks without the blade on them. Just a regular keel weighted Owner beast hook. They’re cheaper than buying the flashy swimmers just to cut the wire off. lol
@HawgWyldFishing I only buy a couple sizes and weights and you dont have to cut off the wire. So if I'm throwing one without it and want to put it back on I can and don't have to retie. If I kept a bunch of different sizes and weights I'd probably buy both types of screw lock hooks.
Definitely love the rage swimmer. I use the 3 1/4" rage swimmer as my go to spinnerbait trailer. In the fall on Chickamauga and watts Bar I will throw again the 3 1/4" on the flashy swimmer in the shallows, but over the topped-out grass. I don't know what it is but dragging that over quickly the bass will come unglued. Blade isn't spinning it's just there. I like skipping it in laydowns and under undercut banks, so I end up using a weighted swimbait hook more then a jig head.
Great info. Chick is my home lake (30 minutes away), the "u" is silent when you pronounce it, Chick A Maga. I had the thermocline question about TVA lakes you answered on the private channel. Since I have been watching your channel, I have gone back and watched virtually every single TH-cam your have done, both public and private channel. You are an absolute wealth of knowledge. Thanks.
Love the rage swimmer...i tried cutting the tail off n screwing a willow leaf but that didnt last long n stick to the flashy. Any chance SK could could come out w a fat rage swimmer that would fit a screw lock double frog hook? I can do it w some swimbaits n can finagle a blade on that double frog hook but I wish owner would make a real double frog hook flashy. Please feel free to delete the comment bc Im pretty sure Im gonna regret putting it out there but at the moment im in the never know unless u ask mindset. Thank you for the channel!
Love the video.

Tournament tip: If you see Todd out on the lake and he starts looking all around, then you know he's on fish he doesn't want anybody to know about.
Absolutely the truth

Great tip!
I love when they thump it so hard you can see the rod jump on video. That's literally all I watch when watching fishing videos is the rod tip.
The ok flashy swimmer just gets bit no doubt
Another great video Todd, you make them exciting, thanks.

Rage swimmers are awesome
thanks for the tips
Bro you are back to putting out great videos..away from the controversy subjects..good job
Rage swimmer break down
Todd needs to work on his poker face 😎
Small swimbaits = flat out 🔥🔥🔥
When they're on bait fish I can go out there with a 3.75 rage swimmer and the belly blade from strike King and smash on em
In Florida I Texas rig them with a light bullet weight and drag them through and over heavy pads in heat of summer when bass are feeding on bluegill.
I laughed out loud when the fish jumped and you went to looking around. I said yep, prefishing!!😂😂
Not many people to my knowledge do this but don’t ignore flipping one into cover just as you would with a creature bait. Trust me I won’t be mad if no one tries it.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh
It works!
What's your setup for fishing the flashy swimmer? Same as swimjig? Thanks
Don’t give away my flashy swimmer trick! That’s my favorite setup for fishing through weeds. Nearly all of my 6+ bass came on that.

The acting casual when reeling in that fish 😂 but when that boat passed I lost it 😂😂🤙🏻🎣

Todd be looking like a undercover agent out there fishing.

When to throw the squadron head vs. a 90 line tie jig head?
If y’all know who Stalekracker is look at his video he posted today using livescope. 🤣🤣🤣 Hilarious
I would appreciate if you just be quiet about these baits and the 19 ways to fish them 😂😂. They catch me a lot of fish 😁👍💯
