I love these videos and hearing directly from the lure designers and users. Very helpful. Thanks for being such good guests and hosts, THUT team. I was clueless on the Blitz line until I watched an earlier video in which you and T Namiki ran through that lineup. I like how everyone is given a chance to comment and add their own special insight during group discussions of products.
Love the stuff with T! Hell, love all of the content y'all put out. If anyone is on the fence about anything OSP, just commit. Literally every lure they make is in the top 5 best baits on the market for that specific category. You won't be disappointed.
awesome that you’re fishing with T namiki, he’s always been one of my fishing heroes, I’m a huge OSP fan. Great questions, gettin us all the info!! Thanks 🙏
I’d imagine flash boost technology on a Varuna would be the cat’s meow, but Shimano probably has that feature patented….great video, Ben! Is the Varuna’s action (rolling) more similar to Jackall’s Rerange?
Flash boost definitely has its moments, but I personally don’t need to see any more flash boost baits. Jackall definitely took inspiration from Varuna 👍
A man after my own heart with that comment, "there's nothing better than a jerkbait"! Well said, Sir! I'd fish a jerkbait all the time if I could (and do most of the time). I need to get some more Varuna's. I like the Asura and Rudra as well and the high cut though not a trad jerkbait. I've been a JB fan for quite some time but after going way down the rabbit hole of JDM JB's with you, it's gotten out of hand! 😂 I almost need a cheatsheet in the boat for which JB to fish when. Lol
The smallest cousin of their jerkbaits, Durga 73sp, is my current favourite jerkbait thus far. Perfect weight and size for BFS fishing, all the action that their bigger cousins have.
@@thehookuptackle_usa possibly dumb question, is this line of Steez rods different than what we have here? Are the common folk able to get into this line or see specs in comparison to the Steez line now offered?

Thank you for watching! I’m glad the videos are useful!! 👊🍻

Thank you for the kind words - and agree - everyone should try some OSP! 👊🍻

Thank you for watching! 🍻
damn that impact wakasagi you're holding at the end of the vid...sold out. all good cause i see a few others i like. great vid!
OSP makes some great colors! Thank you for your business! 🍻
Appreciate the insight. Definitely a pair of guys I'd enjoy a day of fishing with. I'll buy the Orion.
Free beer? Where is this happening?! 😜🍻🍻🍻🍻
Okay, waiting for next episode with Yuki Ito to defend visions 110
110 doesn’t need defending - it’s the undisputed 👑 of jerkbaits. Varuna offers something different that might be useful to many anglers 👍.
I don't know, but I haven't touched a vision 110 since I tried the new Shimano world minnow
The master & apprentice with Varuna, the new liaght saber. Lets hook up for an Orion lager.! Cheers from Australia.
Cheers my friend 🍻. Thank you for watching!

It’s such a crazy addiction!!!! But FUN! 🍻
What gloves are being used in this video?
Would love a 6’10 harrier steez he designed
What's the steez rod used from namiki in the video?? Thanks
Steez harrier 6'10
Thanks for sharing.

The Durga is 💵
Speaking of OSP, y’all getting any rod holders again? I got a pond hopping bike and I think I need three rod holders on it now 😂
T. Namiki caught!! Domo Arigato Mr. Namiki.
sweet videos with t namiki
Thank you for watching!
I think you might be using Dave Mercers theme song. 😞
Would it be sacrilegious if mr namiki used megabass rods? Asking for a friend 🤔
Well since Mr Namiki is basically responsible for creating Steez and has his own signature line of Steez I can’t imagine why he’d use anything else 👍

Any one have issues with heir customers service, I swear they never reply back?
Are you talking about THUT? If so just call them. They are good at answering.
Hey Jim - email and IG DM is the best way to get us. I basically live on IG and Carmen lives on emails. Let me know how I can help!
looks like lake Cherokee
Exactly where it is 👍
What combo u are fishing @thehookuptackle ???
One of T’s Steez combos 👍
@@thehookuptackle_usa do you remember the combo? Which model of steez you and namiki used?
