    This time of year I love using a white 3.3 Keitech Swing Impact Fat on a 1/0 Owner Flashy Swimmer with a willow blade. Actually I love using almost all year here in Ohio. My lake has smaller shad, so a 3.3 is perfect. The blade really helps the bait stand out from the thousands of shad

    Ben I think u have to take in consideration as well that shad spawn mainly during night time and into a couple hrs into the early morning so also fishing during Dusk is also a great time to catch bass feeding on shad and into the night time with wake baits so I think u could get away with not having to wake up early to fish for them and what I experienced here on the Delaware.

    After I’m done with topwater for the morning, my high producer is flukes. The 6” Sakamata is incredibly versatile. Rip it, swim it, sink it, shallow, deep, slow, fast, whatever I need on that cast. I only find a significant limitation with a nose hook rig. I get way better action from a Zoom on nose hooks.

    What’s the best hook for the 4” cover scat? I ordered some Gama Finesse Hybrid Worm 7/0 that should arrive soon and tried to get Decoy worm 18 in 7/0 but you guys must have been out because my money got refunded. Is 7/0 right? Would 6/0 Ryugi Limit work? I guess for that matter what’s your preferred hook for all the cover scats?

    Hey Ben. When are we going to see a big big restock on 6” Mag Draft in Albino Pearl Shad color ???? It looks to me like you need to triple your order on this one specific bait and color. Just say’n. I believe you stressed in this video the importance of the color white. At least let us put some (10-15) on back order. Thanks for another great Video. M.V.
