How to finesse fish the Senko and catch more bass than ever before!

- With a little 1/10 of an once jig head, a 4" senko and 10# line on a spinning reel, I can catch a jillion bass! Not all are big but every once in a while a big one bites! I'm fishing a Hydrilla laden canal in central Florida but this technique will work from Connecticut to California! I'm basically a power fisherman but I grew up with light spinning tackle and I'm a good fineness fisherman so let me tell you how to do it!
Roland, your line watching tip resulted in my PB! I was fishing a weedless skirted bass jig with a 4" worm and thought I had bumped into an underwater twig, but thanks to you I was watching the line and it twitched sideways, so I set the hook and reeled in a 6.9 lb bass! Thanks Roland!
Big bass usually don’t hit hard. They suck it in and swim with it
Roland: “Catch four or five in a row and move along to the next spot..”
Me: “Catch four or five in a row and you’re set for the entire summer!”
I set the hook just like Roland, except I only catch bluegill. They’re all in orbit now.
The poor bastards. LOL
Shoot some of the bluegills around here feel like logs when you hook them on 6 lb test.
Tried Roland's suggestion, use a frog first and after a bass explodes on it but doesn't get hooked, quickly throw in a Senko worm and bam, I caught a nice 16" bass this morning on the Senko!! Thanks again to the man!!! :) and yes, I use Spro Frogs!!
Who doesn't want to fish with Roland after watching his videos. Great teacher and enthusiasm. Thanks.
This is the closest to a fishing mentor I will ever have. Thanks so much
Thx for teaching and giving advice to all of us through the years. The best teacher in the field!🙏🏼✌🏻🇺🇸🤙🏼🔥🔥💥👊🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I’m your protege in Ct,you teach me everything and I love ya😁❤️these videos are priceless ,Thank you for loving us and sharing your Knowledge
Whoever gave that thumbs down needs to burn their fishing license.
It was probably Jimmy Houston
No joke
Great job Roland 👍👍
😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍🤸awesome video roland finesse fishing is the best
Outstanding Roland..Mr. Dana Bqtes ..
Thanks for the video Roland! I love fishing a Senko. Something relaxing about just taking it easy, not worrying so much about size and just fishing ...
9:08 is a gorgeous picture with reflection of clouds on water
Look forward 3 times a week to see your videos and I catch myself every time looking to see how much time is left on each video. Hate when they end!! Looking forward for Friday’s video!!🇺🇸
Roland loves his 297 color ☝️👌👍
Oh Son!!! Life long fan!
Good to see even Roland loses fish on his hook sometimes. Happened to me the other day/ Used a plastic worm Texas rigged and had a 3-4 lb bass on the hook (or so I thought I thought he was hooked) and as I was reeling him in he got off my hook. Heartbreaking!! :( He seemed like he was on the hook well but then jumped out of the water and wiggled himself off the worm. LOL I hate that when that happens!! The fish in Florida are very smart and know the ways to get off a hook.
The way you can catch more fish don’t let Jimmy take you rod. You 2 are like Laurel & Hardy you young guys may not remember them. GOD bless you. Rick O’Dell Carthage, Mo
Rolands the best and still outfishing the rest!
Nope, im better
Roland you teach me all the time thanks for being you
Thanks for all the tips! My granddaughter loves the videos as well! Keep up the good work.
Around here, we call that the Ned rig, otherwise known as the “Midwest Finesse Rig!”
Yup.. Love it, it's a fish catching machine.. and avoid Gary Yamamoto Senkos--they tear too easily, too much salt. They work--but at $5-$8 per pack of 10 or 5, depending on the size, that's too much money. 2-3 fish per worm is not a good ratio.
@@ldsudduthhanover Zman all day! $5 for a pack of 8, and you’ll catch easily 30 fish on one bait!
@@ToddReuterOutdoors hate those. Too stiff and impossible to put on the hook without jamming the hook in my finger.
Catching so many fish couldn't even sign off without one biting! Great video Roland!
Another winning video to help us learn to catch them instead of fishing for them. Thanks for sharing your expertise!
Hey Roland, I carry a small jet lighter to fix ripped plastics.
Beats superglue, but don't burn yourself.
Thank you Mr. Martin for another good video. It’s steaming hot here in Alabama, may have to get out the spinning rod and try this.
Thank you for another video Mr. Martin! I’m so excited every time I get a new video notification from you!
Can’t beat that Headwaters fishing especially with a Senko.
This look like Fellsmere to you?
George Meyer yes it it
It's definitely Headwaters
Yeah, tell everybody..
Ole Roland looking slim! Keep up the great content!!
Roland that was a awsome video. That will give me another way to fish. Thank you.
Rolands the goat 🐐
Who wants to see roland and Jimmy Houston do some team tournaments? I would love to watch a series watching the old warriors put a whooping on some young bucks! #teamRoland&Jimmy
Great video as always! I like how you catch Bass live during the videos using the finesse technique. I will try this in the next few days. Thanks!
Hey Roland! Another great video on the senko worm! Gotta be a line watcher! Love your videos and learning a lot! Thanks again Roland much respect
I am up in Quebec, Canada where the Berkley B1 is, and everybody is offshore dragging C-Rigs and dropshotting... Me and my friends focus on the "never ending" shallow bite. The only thing that gets em', yep, good ol' slim turd again eh! Keep em' awesome videos coming Roland, good tips has always!
Nice Roland, that is some west coast fishing. Use that often in our reservoirs in California. It catches em.
Love your channel, advise, tips and enthusiasm. Just fun to watch. Be safe my friend. Hope to be down on the Okeechobee in November. Hope we cross paths.
If anybody can find a way ro catch bass it's you roland. you are such a great fisherman anytime of the year
Great moments
I bend my hook( slightly) outward to right or left to insure my proper hookset.Works well when the fish are coming off at landing.
Roland....You da man!!!!!
Roland you should do a fan meet and fish. Ill take one for the team and go first. Few hours that's all I need with ya son!
Great video Roland
Never seen Roland lose so many fish!
So awesome to see you already over 100k ... nice to see you getting paid Roland - the American Angler still knows & loves you - your like a coke classic - 😉😎😉
That was awesome!
Reality show: Roland in one boat. Bill Dance in another boat. Hank Parker in another boat. Tell me no busting balls wouldn't go on and fish stories of who is better would be great! Lol.
Another great video!
Thanks professor 👍👍👍
That was a great video
down in socal we gotta use 8 and 6 pound test line. no hard hooksets for me
Left us with a cliffhanger!
I saw you fishing a weedless Ned rig before 🎣
Hi Roland. Can you help me catch more or bjgger fish at my favorite local pond that is super highly pressured, where folks don't catch fish normally??
Professor why do you pull back the rod whether you spin cast or bait cast?
Why not use 20 lb braid for finesse fishing (no leader)? To prevent spool packing when pulling a snag, I wrap it 7 times around a wooden file handle (no file attached) and can straighten a finesse jig's wire hook and salvage the rig, or if hopelessly snagged break off at the knot and retie. Strong enough to horse a bass out of moderate cover without a heart-breaking lunker breaking the line. I have lost too many nice bass on 8 and 10 lb mono to count. 20 lb braid is as thin as 6 lb mono and more abrasion resistant. In tea-stained bass wares, dark green braid disappears or looks like filamentous algae. Works great on both baitcasters and spinning reels with less coil memory and less line twist. 30 lb braid works well for moderate/heavy fishing. Once I standardized on 20 and 30 lb braid for all of my bass fishing I now save money by buying economy-sized PowerPro 1500 yard spools.
Ok
Well I don’t know how you resisted the temptation of switching to top water!! Hearing those fish splashing around me I would have switched on the first or second splash.
The GOAT!
Where are you watching the line?< At the tip? At water level ? Please explain
Roland: Could you do that same water fishing a wacky senko?
That a way good job
Can you frog fish open water? In Jordan lake NC there is not much hydrilla off the banks. (I don't have a boat.)
Literally watched this video and then went out and tried this technique for the first time today and hooked one first cast and then he broke me off...
How often do you fish?
This has me wondering if should continue using weedless hooks when i wacky rig a 5 inch senko.
I find when i use a weedless hook with my wacky rig set up it messes up my hook set. Makes me loose alot of fish.
If I get a horrible birds nest that I can't untangle, is there an easier way to remove line from a baitcaster besides slicing across the line a million times with a razor blade?
Yes, in short pull ur line out till it stops then pull at he loops on the spool then pull the line back off the spool. Repeat and it will be done easy as works every time and takes no time at all.
@@knifedetective259 thank you, can you recommend a video that shows that?
@@BN-cp6fw Search you tube for how to remove a birds nest and a heap will come up.
You need a 4/0 hook. Melt you a jig head on it.
Is this different then a Ned rig? Seems to be pretty close to the same thing.
Watching Roland fish a spinning rod , is like watching flag football instead of the real deal.
Are the peacock bass still down there?
Hi. Are you using mono here?
The noise the reels making it sounds like braid
what rod are you using
I can't remember ever catching multiple fish with 1 Senko, those things clap out faster than Octo-mom doin porn... but I believe thier soft texture plays a big part of why they're the best. There really is no substitute.
Lmao @ Octo mom 😂
Hey Roland I've watched you fish for year's. But I can't help but notice you have yet to see you invite a person with melanated skin on your boats. I hope that I've over looked a videos or two over the years . Feel free to leave a link if possible. Thank you.
You know very little about me for I've filmed with 3 different bass fishermen of color, this year alone!
