Randy this was a great video for two reasons. 1- great technique and explanation. 2- no negative talk regarding the state of professional fishing or live scope Thank you.
Charlie brewer has had the slider grubs in the 3 inch size with a small paddle tail since the 1980's. Still a great lure. Catches everything that swims. Thanks for the great tips Randy. Love these advanced videos.
Black and chartreuse tail on a 3/16 to 1/4oz roadrunner head with a gold blade then rap dental floss on the hook shank lil sup glue and bump it on stumps in 2’-6’ feet of water and around drains and cypress. Me my sun have probably caught 5,000 fish from spots LM white perch and goggleye and yellow&white bass and me dad&mom use to catch 200 plus a day on that color and a purple & red color. Brother I sure miss the good ol days.
What a coincidence that this video showed up tonight! I caught my best smallmouth of the year this afternoon on a 3" hazedong shad rigged on an 1/8oz head on mixed rock in around 6' of water. Surprisingly the water visibility was only about 18" to 2'. I didn't even have my front graph on. Haha.
That’s what’s wrong with the country and new generation nowadays. They just don’t appreciate a go old ass shaking stroll all alone! But this Gen X right here do I do I do do dooowwoo 😂😂😂
I've listened to a lot of Ben Milliken's interview of BassU a couple of times now, a lot of it. In which he talked about the lures that he was using for different Opens competitions. One thing that Ben remarked on, has some relevance to this episode of Advanced Bass Fishing.
He noticed how throwing a regular swimbait lure to fish at times, which were hunting these small baits and forage out in lakes. The straight, regular retrieve of his paddle tail or whatever swimbait he had on wasn't working. Instead what they were playing around with (I think it came over from Japan, and Pete at BassU was asking Ben to explain it to him, what this free rig thing was all about). And what it seems to be about, Ben explained that at times the free rig would operate a lot like a wacky worm presentation. Rather than having a long barrel or cone sinker, this sinker hung on the line and was free to move. Then they talked about one-sixteenth adn one-thirty-second ounce weights. Various things, the kinds of line you'd use to cast the rigged bait with. The concluding or penultimate thing Ben argued. Was that on occasion the fish wouldn't look at the straight, regular retrieve of the swimbait. Instead, the spiral or free-rigged presenation which descended gradually along some odd pathway down through the water column. Was better.
The point being, that one can argue it's about sight hunting fish and visibility of the lure. Yet, there's another aspect to it too, which has to do with movement and pathways. Which at least for those fish in question (they weren't associated much to any structure or identifiable place on a lake). These were the fish obviously that lots of anglers now are trying to find using technology. And also having a hard job of trying to find what those same fish bite.
I was impressed by the intelligence and ease at which an angler such as Milliken could speak about baits and ways to fish baits. On the BassU interview with Pete and company lately. And I've listened and read anglers talk about fishing for a long time now, going back as far as the 1980's. One of the biggest shocks though I got, was the way that Jac Ford explained his fishing methods in Michigan rivers (having caught brown trout in rivers as far south as Tennessee and Arkansas too). When I listened to Jac explain his ideas, developed over seventy years of fishing in rivers. On his seminar on the Anchored Outdoors website of late. I've only listened to half of Jac's seminar thus far, but already he's given me a lot of pause to think over my fishing approach.
Do you realized how many better swimbaits are out there in this class alone? Do you realize that the advancement also includes giant swimbaits too, particularly in the new models?

Thank you.
Awesome as always... Thanks Randy

Great video
I love finesse swim baits they catch everything and giant fish especially smallmouth
Swimbaits are one of my top 3 confidence baits. Great info. Love the detail.
Thank you for the great content. This channel has shot up to number 1 out of all the channels that I've subscribed.
Thx man!
Great information. Going to try it this week on Lake Sinclair Ga. Thank you.
A lot of good information thank you
Randy that a great video. It was full of very valuable information. Thank you for sharing that with us.
Thx Mike!
Info is good. But why not show us how to fish with it on the water?????
Excellent
Juice man! Thanks.
Great always learning
Chartreuse on the spark shed looks like sexy shed😌🤷🏼♂️
Thanks

What happened to the visibility rain or weather churning up the bottom??
What about putting it in the water and see if he catches bass????
Is that the hooksett you use largely on the hover rig as well, randy?
Do you use scent and does scent take the marking ink off?
Spark had setup gives it that Sexy Shad look.
Do you have knowledge of any river fishing? I fishing Kanawha and Ohio rivers.
Sassy Shad.
Do you use the Hover rig or tush rig on the Keitech swim bait? Or is the jig head an attractant? I am right on the edge of having 3 ft of visibility.
I love that Keitech in Pre Spawn, they all love that booty shake!

How do you decide water clarity?
U look @ it...😳
WELL SAID DUH !@@jasonkidd9559
Stick your rod in the water with a Luger, and measure how many guides it goes down
Info is good. But why not show us how to fish with it on the water?????
@pequenioedgarito3067 , ur going 2 have 2 do some things 4 urself my dude. 🤷🏻♂️
Sight hunting lure and water clarity, visibility of lure is all fine and good, but.

Shut up and listen.
@@rifleman522 Make me.
Randy: you need to put this in the water and see if this works [or not]. Great that you show us the setup. But you need to put it in the water
