If only you were.
I truly appreciate all the detailed information on the various tackle. But the water footage just adds a whole new element. Rather than making assumptions as to how we think a bait will run you show the viewer. That is genius, I've made several recent purchases from the shop just after seeing the swim. Thanks

I have used reaction innovations swim baits for years and the are very well priced compared to others. I use a belly weighted hook and recently added one to an old inline spinner bait and it creates lots of wake in muddy waters. I have also used the underspin hook as well. Bass Pro also has their version that i like as well
Great video! Thanks😀
You guys a coming out with with the heat! Love the info and yes I’m in the midwest and the fish are burnt on the soft swim bait seen. Definitely going to branch out and try some new ones you demoed! Placing a order this weekend! What’s up Jeff? I see you but can’t see you!

Another way to fish the Skinny Dipper is rigged on the Owner Beast weighted 4/0 hook. It has a very aggressive body roll on a steady retrieve. Very productive in stained water. Great video with a lot of great information as always.

That peg - free rigged swimbait its very similar to a rig that we use a lot in Spain but I haven't seen it anywhere else, the Cheburashka rig, great unknown rig, if you wanna give it a look
Great video!!
Great video bro. Which swim bait and rigging would you recommend for deep water lake trout? Thanks.
My favorite paddle tail is the Gambler Big Ez With an underspin it is deadly
Great channel and content. That sinker you showed when talking free rig, what was that? Some kind of blade attached. Cheers!
@thehookuptackle_usa

That’s the Decoy Blade Sinker. It’s basically an underspin weight that you can add to anything
A good soft tail section, long thin paddle on the tail like a Fringe and Scottsboro Tackle or a wide short one with the bottom squared off like the Spark Shad and Hammer. That’s how I choose my swimbaits. I’ve thrown my arm out of socket and those are the 2 best designs. The others are just filler for the market

Opposite. They prevent the baits from rising.
Gambler - EZ and Big EZ - great action and lasts much longer than Keitech - nice groove on top too - I swear by these (old dude - you fish me long time...). Great garlic stink to it. Also the Beast Coast Miyagi - Baby Bass slays in the Northeast . Heavy and big and runs thru the pads like no other - fish it like a frog on that owner weighted hook and pause it in pads, jig it a bit - it sinks a bit and gets EATEN - when it gets slammed it doesn’t pop out of the water - best bait period, for me in the pads. I pause when it gets eaten in pads, click my baitcaster and just feel the line start to run as I thumb it ....wait....then whip it, whip it good and crank that stick back boy - best...feeling...ever. Ribbed for pleasure? psssshhh, try BIG and HEAVY and a STRONG ARCHING THRUST.
