Great tips! I LIKED your comments on using smelly jelly to add scent and to lubricate the plastic. I like to add smelly jelly to the first couple of feet of line and also to lubricate my knots before tightening them down.
Great great great great video. I haven’t seen another video on RUclips like this. Very much appreciate the tip and insight. You’re channel deserves so much more recognition. Keep bringing us the awesome content.
Mr. B Was out this morning throwing the Mr B Chatterbait in the wind. Fishing was tough but I know it will not be long before that bait pays off. Stay tuned. Right now the only bait on the delta is the senko.
Great video Steve. 👍🏻 Best I’ve seen tips wise in awhile thats not just rehashed content. I’m headed out Monday mid morning launching at Paradise. Hoping for a good one. Maybe I’ll see you out there.
Thanks Dave and when you see this bait in the water I think you will really like it. Make sure to keep the bait in view and twitch it a few times to check out the action. I'm thinking the same thing-the fish don't see this presentation so it should be really good in hard it water.
I'm gonna try this tomorrow, Steve. Today was tough out there. 1 fish on a frog (only 3 bites all day and all came on a frog. I guess if you are only gonna get a fish on a frog, that's a pretty good way to go!). I tried lots of worms and senko approaches. But, lots of vegetation so I really like this technique. Interesting that you said you were using mono. For some reason I thought you used flouro for your leader on worms. Thanks a bunch!
I have not tried that. I have tried using a nail weight inserted into the center of the worm at the divot. The rig cast great-sinks fast and has great action. Give that a try and let me know what you think.
Great tips. Love your channel. I landed a 7.25 and a 8.1 this week in the Tracy Triangle area off of beds. Im on the water weekly. You have a spot we can post pics/reports ?
That depends on your casting ability. It really helps to make a longer than normal cast so using lite or no breake. You can also use a med hvy spin rod-just need the back bone to set hook.
Thank you. Senkos are my #1 subsurface bait. I remain a novice and have a questions. Q1: Why use a worm hook instead of an EWG? (T-rig) Q2: Is there no benefit to the "keel affect" it ... allegedly ... provides? Q3: Does it even PROVIDE ... a "keel affect"?
Simple answer to many questions. I like the in line hook because I think I get better hook sets. EWGs are good and I have used them a lot. If you have confidence In the EWG there is no reason not to use them.
Here's the set up. Use your standard worm rod. 55 or 65 lb braid with about 6 to 8 ft of 16 tp 20 lb mono leader. Thants my set up. You can go with full mono or floro line - 16 to 20 lb test but I like the no stretch of braid. The mono leader helps with the action of the worm. Hope that helps.
“Use your standard worm rod, 50 or 65lb braid…” y’all Delta boys are a different breed! Lol Thanks for the great video-I’m going to try this around my local heavy cover lake!

Thanks A M. I am enjoying the youtube thing-thanks for the support.
Thanks so much this tip Steve. This should help me tomorrow if they aren’t munching on the frog. Keep up the great content.
Thanks James-good luck.
Nice job out there Steve. Keep up the great work.

@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 that reaction bite is just around the corner.
Great tip! Love the “every time…we’ll sometimes”…lol!
Thanks Bruce-good luck.
Love this video Steve! This might be your best.
Went fishing today and caught a 4 and a half pounder. Thanks for the tip!
Great Alex. Keep up the catching.

I plan to fish Monday out of PP. Hope to see you at the ramp. Let me know how you do.
Good video. Also a look the fish don't see all the time so might be good for pressured bodies of water. Thanks for sharing.

WOW! 😱Something totally innovative and new!! Great in depth look at a secret worm rig! Can I get a lesson please 🤞
Incredible video!
Hi Cam. Can you send me your contact info. I need to call or give me a call.
Thank you for the tips.
I'm gonna try this tomorrow, Steve. Today was tough out there. 1 fish on a frog (only 3 bites all day and all came on a frog.

Thanks for the report. Make sure to try some deeper water-8-10 ft deep. Fish sloooow. Let me know how you do.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 will do, thanks!
Thanks for sharing Steve! Definitely going to give this a try!
Thanks Joe-let's plan a date on the delta-things are starting to pop.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 heck yeah let’s do it
@@BassUnion Whats the best way to get in contact with you.
HOT TIP" THANKS! new sub from Idaho!
Welcom J. How's the Owyhee fishing?
Do you ever put a bobber-stop, small weight and/or a red bead on above the hook?
I have not tried that. I have tried using a nail weight inserted into the center of the worm at the divot. The rig cast great-sinks fast and has great action. Give that a try and let me know what you think.

Hi Cajun-send your pics and reports to scooper9561032@gmail.com Thanks
Great tips
Great tip brother.
Get that fence built.
Awesome video I’m definitely going to try this
Let me know how you do. Good luck.
Mr. Cooper, you remind me of Cooch. You teach, share and don't attempt to sell products or promote anything. How refreshing is that???
I'll take that any day, thanks for watching and hope to see you on the river. Good luck.
Steve, when you’re pitching with the baitcast reel, do you loosen the spool tension knob quite a bit? Loosen the brake to zero? Thanks
That depends on your casting ability. It really helps to make a longer than normal cast so using lite or no breake. You can also use a med hvy spin rod-just need the back bone to set hook.
What kind of setup did you use?
ROD:
REEL:
LINE:

Hey Steve, any disavantage on using this setup with a 5in Senko and a 2 or 3 ought hook ?
Hi Colin-I have not tried it on a 5 in but there should be no reason it doesen't work. Let me know how it works.
Did I miss rod/reel/line, you said mono why is that sir?
Here's the set up. Use your standard worm rod. 55 or 65 lb braid with about 6 to 8 ft of 16 tp 20 lb mono leader. Thants my set up. You can go with full mono or floro line - 16 to 20 lb test but I like the no stretch of braid. The mono leader helps with the action of the worm. Hope that helps.

what a great way to recycle your beat up senkos 👏🏽
Really works-give it a try.
First! Great content my guy!
Thanks Tyler-go catch some fish.
All he has is great content!
Man you guys take your bait mods seriously. Ill consider some of these changes when the bite is tough 👍
Make sure that you let me know how you do. I think you will be surprised. Fish it slow with the twitch. Good luck.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 ill do that! You guys get all the credit. Never seen that mod before. 👌
