I can confirm that the TUSH hook is money. It's really a different way to present a swimbait and it opens up some options you don't necessarily have with a ball-head jig or belly-weighted hook. I use them to almost drag along the bottom and keep that bait low in the water column. You can feel that bait working in the rod tip because of strong that prevalent that belly roll is.

Been using it as well. Catching some extra fish over the top of piles with it. Good ones too.

I've been catching some big ones using a 4.5 in spunk shad. missile baits or hog farmer spunk shad both work and I use white pearl for hog farmer version or the pearl purple or whatever they call it, which just looks white really for the missile version on the 3/8oz 4/0 hook tush and the letting it hit the bottom past the fish and reeling real fast 4 or 5 reels and stopping and letting it hit the bottom again, then four or five reels and so on pretty much like a hair jig and they've been nailing it, even if they aren't biting the hair jig. The other retrieve, when they don't respond to that one is starting the same as first but you have rod tip high and for each reel, you pull at the same time about a 8 in to a foot per pull as you do a single reel simultaneously, which moves it about a couple feet per pull/reel and you do that 3 or 4 times consecutively one right after the other and let it go back to bottom on semi slack line after each set it will come up between 4 to 6 ft off the bottom after doing it. I've cought hundreds if not over a thousand fish doing these two retrieves with this one bait fishing it these two different ways in the last month alone. I fish with a lot of other baits as well, so that really says something about how good this is.

For my swim bait set up I ordered the hooks to match my line size. Then I simply wrap lead wire around the hook to match the weight I need. By wrapping the wire around the hook I can get a perfect balance to make different baits set perfectly horizontal. Add a touch of super glue to the bait and wire . Now you have a low cost DIY setup.👍

Great! I enjoyed watching each one talk their side to it as well. I tell people all the time I learn stuff with each video I edit.

Yes sir!!! Appreciate ya

Does anyone know how to keep the swimbaits from rotating while fishing them weightless on a ewg or Texas Rigged?

After super gluing these baits, are they difficult to remove? Are the baits trashed after? Thanks guys

So from my experience, now some soft plastics are different then others of course. They can be removed but if you catch fish with them or fish around heavy cover... then yes they can be done for. - Jimi

There seems to be a lot of time spent on lure “brand”. Could I get a greater emphasis on time of year, where, and conditions. Thank you

I guess you don’t watch all of our videos? We typically make videos that are around the time of year / areas to fish and etc. Some of the anglers do go over brands they like / work for. I watch a lot of YT and this channel does less “brand” then others - Jimi

@@BassFishingDeclassified I should have said "I'd hate to see this become...". I apologize man, I do watch all the videos and yes for sure you guys definitely do it way less than just about anyone. Didn't mean no hate or anything. ❤❤ I truly appreciate the stuff you do for the fishing community and think this is the important things to learn about fishing.

Man your good! I love to hear feedback and I don’t want to be bias toward our channel. This video was a unique specific videos towards the Swimbait. We have a content schedule and this one can be more toward a brand. Just an idea we tried! Thanks for watching - Jimi 👍🏽
