My favorite bait. I’ve caught muskies, northern, bass, bowfin, crappies, you name it. Casting, jigging, trolling. These really work.

Replaced spinners for me! Work just as well, bon't doesn't twist your line! Be sure to change the stock hooks though, they're usually very weak. Lost a 1kg Zander to it with the Berkley Powerblade.

Thanks Mike for all the input you’re giving us towards the blade bate, I caught so many fish with any types of blade bait just like you said you could do anything with that and any season thanks again you’ve been a good help

Thanks Mike for explaining what the three holes on the top do! Can't wait to try out this bait! Keep the great content coming!

You're a very positive person Mike, thanks for your great explanations and inspiration, greeting from Millstätter Lake in Austria !!!

great video and explanation by Ike, definitely something to try

I know it's an old video, but I love watching Mike.

Thanks Mike! Just bought one of these metal blades, and gonna try it soon. 💯

I changed the split ring and used a 4/0 inline hook and caught a bunch of 28-30” striped bass in the Northeast. Good lure to jig off the bottom

Thanks for sharing your wisdom Mike! Big fan.

@@beerandgunz40g4l7 I just caught my first bass in January on a straight retrieve. It was a dink, but still a bass.

Thanks for the video

I thought that back hole would give you tighter vibrations. Ow... We were talking fishing. Never mind. 🤭😇😂

I love using my blade baits at my local fishing pier 🎣

As a beginner should i use the lure in middle hole or front or back hole? I just purcased my first rod 180cm 20gram and 2 of those 14 gram 😄, i used to fish 270cm rod 50 gram with 25 gram jerkbaits and weedless spinners and i got my record pike of 8kg. But this is so new to me and it looks more fun.

Newly subscribed. Just this moment. Enjoyed this clip and the wisdom immensely. Gotta ask though, who’s the brand of shell/jacket you’re sporting? I think I need one …

Mike can you conceive fishing it under a slip bobber if you are fishing from the shore?

last time i used a baby spoon i got some bomb bluegills .lol they pull hard as a gas racecar toy 6lb on med light 5 10 spinning rod

What is your jacket? That is awesome

I’m not dragging especially brush pile unless I have 100 extra copies in the boat. Also most silver baits have 3 holes. You don’t need a fancy silver blade...

I forgot to tell you Mike I will be using blade baits in the tournament that I joined it is an international tournament in Lake Murray South Carolina this week I hope I’ll be successful with blades look me up thank you again. I will be with team Philippines and my name is Gary.

I fish with blades almost every time no matter the pond or lake

I wonder what would happen if you ran a small split ring with a swivel to it will it change the action

it would change it

I’ve dropped them on bass in 30 ft vertical jigging in the summer

Caught everything from cats and bass to tarpon and peacocks.

ooof... yo yo technique is almost impossible in AZ lakes how do they do it without snagging.. i guess that hook really makes a difference!

A lot of lakes in the midwest... the ones that are man made have giant large flats with no structure on them at all.

I'll pop a bladebait anywhere for anything. Actually had a tarpon hit one once!

“That’s means you can fish this bait around cover, and it doesn’t snag..” ……as much as

At 10$ a piece I think I'm going to have to not.....

How did I know there would not be 1 fish catch!? Reason, it's a COLD water/weather bait. Low 50's and below. Funny Mike, we've never seen you or any other Pro fishing these baits on tour - there's are reason.

I have had immense perch action on the Daiwa Prorex Metal Vibe from June-September in warm weather here in Norway atleast! I always use it as a starting lure to find where the perch is. Compared to other spinningbaits my fishing partners use I catched way more on this one. Never had below 8-10 perch in an hour of fishing my home lakes. Probably differences around, but the Daiwa Prorex is really good, and it makes good action when sinking too, caught many big ones on the drop. Ordered a couple new ones for next season, but I bet there are differences from place to place, but they really work for me :) Look at Perch Pro competition too. Biggest Perch competition viewerwise with multiple pro teams, they all use A LOT of Blade baits and Spintails. They are very much used in europe for pike and perch, can't say how it is for bass or anything
