Just got back into bass fishing and, man, things have changed since I was a kid a long time ago. But I am really enjoying learning the newer techniques. This video is super helpful and I thank you for sharing your expertise.
Good show! One little C-rig tip that I learned a long time ago was to stop the cast with your thumb on the spool before the rig hits the water. This stops the sinker but the bait continues to fly until it reaches the end of the leader. The gets everything laid out correctly with the bait dragging behind the sinker from the moment it hits the water.
I'm new to fishing in general and seen Alot of vids of guys who like to hear themselves talk glad that everything u say is great info that ks again one of my favorites
Fished a HEAVILY pressured lake here in SoCal yesterday and zeroed out. I rarely used c-rig in the past and regret not trying it yesterday with a fluke imitating the shad they were feeding. Thanks for the reminder to try something from the old days. Will try this technique tomorrow.
This video is the prime example of why I started following you not to mention I know your brother Eric. You are a fantastic teacher. I’ve learned so much from you. Keep them coming.
I'm so disappointed that I only just now found your videos Gene, but at least I found them. Great instructions! I'm a DETAIL oriented guy, so when you said "There's no reason I'm using a red and white one, I just have em out", I was already wondering. I appreciate the attention to detail!! Thank you! You have a new viewer! Keep up the great work!
I have to so say youe seem like such a genuine person, like the vibes i get from you in just full on heart felt with everything you, it realy makes me happy to see there is at least one person left on the planet still living and just kind and sincere as can be. almost as if you are the person that invented "Being kind". I wish that at least before I die I can afford to go on a fishing trip with you just one time. You realy are one of a kind and a super inspiration for being genuine and loving and definitely top quality teacher. Thank you for doing what you do!!!
Was LITERALLY searching this last night and was wondering if you were going to do a new video on the Carolina Rig, and BOOM. The universe answers! Thanks as always, Gene!
WOW! I never knew it was so much to fishing this rig. I mostly fish Texas rig but now I'm anxious to try this technique. I was writing the tips down to take with me when I go to try this out. You could not have been more thorough. Appreciate you man and looking forward to your next video!
thank you for this rig i learnt this rig over 50 years ago when growing up in florida by my dad and it still works today then i used shrimp today i use plastic but the same results but i caught more on the in line rig which is about the same but minus the bead replaced with a swilvil
I started watching you about a year ago but I never got a chance to get out much for Bass. I did my fair share of salmon and steelhead tho. But the last 2 weeks I loaded up on all my bass gear. All new rods for all applications and I'm ready. Watched this video again to remind me what to do. I just went with spinning reels for most rods except my top water rods. Keep killing it man! Love the videos
That lasso cast is my style of casting. Didn't know there was a name for it. Had many people I've taken fishing comment about it. I leave about 24-36" of line out and I lasso it just like you did. I use it when I'm trying to rocket a lighter 3/8 weighted plastic out farther.
Gene, Thank you for the info. You addressed what brought me here. I have not used the Carolina Rig for over 20 years of fishing. I just got away from it found setting it up a hassle compared to the Texas rig. Today I went back to it for 2 reasons. The Jig Rig was not catching fish, all summer long that has been the hot ticket, not today. I have been using Z-Mans Big TRD most of the summer. I figured the Jig Rig was not allowing the bait to float off the bottom like I wanted. Thus the Carolina Rig. As soon as I switched I started to catch fish. The bites were all aggressive and were gut hooked. I could not figure out why, I could feel the bite and did not let them take it for long. Thank you for addressing this issue and the tips about the keepers. I use swivels and there is a sequence to tie the rig if your number one knot is the Palomar and this can be a hassle if you mess up the sequence of events.
When i go fishing, i use a knot as a sliding sinker stopper under a small bead. Works miracles! Its interesting how personalized the carolina rig is nevertheless.
I often coming back to this chanel when i have fished carolina, ned or texas , and caught nothing, only to get more tips and inspiration, we fish yellow pearch here in sweden and we do it on bassfishing methods, and they are so damn good, but im still learning after 10 years of using these methods. Thanks Fluke for guidance.
Never had much confidence in the c-rig because I had a very tough time feeling bites. Watched this video Monday night and caught 7 in a little over an hour the next afternoon using these tips. Thank you Flukemaster!
thanks, never had that explained to me before. i mainly bass fish in ponds. usually shallower water. a buddy showed me sliding finishing nails into my plastics can weigh them down enough in shallower water without having to use any traditional weight. subscribed.
Flurocarbon has the same stretch as mono. Line is line and they all catch fish. I like the EWG hooks because when a fish bites down on the bait the curved part gets pressed down, exposing the sharp part of the hook for a easier hook set. Also if u like swim baits I highly recommend the "naked swimmers" from Bitters bait and tackle. The gold flake, the watermelon red flake, and blue and green flake work best.
I know they both stretch but that mono feels like a slinky when I bomb cast it and it gets hung, when I get hung on fluoro it doesn’t stretch and is much harder to break. Question…what line are you using? And I’m not trying to be rude, I’m curious because I’d love to find some mono that doesn’t stretch like the stuff I use.
"You hate to admit that you fish it but when you fish it you catch the crap out of them" :) I like your tutorials since they are always so straight to the point. Have a happy new year and with God grace 2020 will be a blessing.
Great video and very instructive. Not sure how you could dislike an educational video like this. Keep up the great work and I'm glad I found this channel!
I never comment on videos ... and as a man who as a boy didn’t pay much attention to dad when we went fishing .. this has helped a ton loads of info and look forward to watching more vids so I can teach my boy how to fish 😂
Hey Gene, I want to start off by thanking you for ALL the teaching videos you have done, over the past year I have learned so much from them!!! I used to fish with live worms only but have changed to lures and have been putting into practice everything you have taught from rod to reel, type of line to rig, trying all rigs and having fun doing so!!! Can you do a video about getting the max distance on a cast with a spinning reel, it is the one thing I have been struggling with and always fall short? Again thank you for putting in all the effort to teaching how to fish!!!
Cindy Huot if you use braided line as the main line on your spinning reel you will get better distance! You can tie a connection know with fluorocarbon to the braid. This will help you get better casts
I like how detailed you are with your videos since I've just recently started bass fishing. I grew up only cat fishing so bass fishing is completely different and allot of the videos I've seen have been very basic and don't explain much of the reasoning behind it.
Great instructional content. I didn't see a link to that video you referenced on how to dehook a gorged hookset. Would love to see that. I'm much older and my eyes can't seem to pick up the live movement like I could 20 years ago. Like to put those fish back unharmed if possible.
I found some Tungsten cylindrical weights,vmc makes some..and bass pro has a lead one they call xps finesse weight .there are some lead ones by phenix thanks for the tips!
You should make your own sinkers, design them like you want. You can even use a potato to pour the lead into, if desperate. There are books on this. I make mine with a sort of rocket tip on both ends to slip through weeds better.
You do the excellent job of explaining this sir. I've seen a lot of Carolina rig videos but nobody really explains it like you do. The only criticism I can give you is a little bit closer up on the bait and the rigging would be nice. But technique you have nailed it. I know how to cast now
jake bangs don’t be afraid to use lead! Mead is much cheaper. You may lose some sensitivity but you’ll save a ton of money! Ha. If you’re not getting hung up you’re not in the stuff
mr you got me cracking up...if you had said 'what's up doc?" I would have left this planet laughing --don't get me wrong I'm hooked because of your impromptu humor to go with your excellent teaching abilities thank ya for the lessons?
Holy sponsored snot is this an instructional video ???? Is Fluke dancing with the one who brought him again ?? Glad to see you stay true to your word on your live Gene. Carolina is bread and butter for sure.
I supporting the guys who help with the expenses of making videos so people can watch them for free. It cost me $32,000 last year just to produce the videos.
@@Flukemaster relax I don't have any issue with you being sponsored. I was in the live where you said you needed to get back to these. I'm happy to see you back at these type of videos..
Thanks for posting this tutorial on the Carolina rig. I doubt I'll be using this rig much if at all. A bit to complex to rig and to fish IMHO...LOL!!! Great presentation though.
Mojo weights!!!!! That's what I grew up using, with the rubber stopper strips, too. Theres a company called Phenix (IIRC) that has started making them, the rubber stoppers and threading tool, again.
Gene I wondered when you would get to Zoom Lizards. My go to in March and April is a 4.5 green pumpkin on a Mojo rig with a short leader, say a foot or less. Also my son told me about seeing you at Bucks.
Michael Moon I was also interested when he discussed lizards. Do you use it prespawn? I’m in Illinois and have a tournament in May. Water is still in the 50’s. I think C-rigging a lizard may be something no one else would use, but wondering how early you use it? Thanks
YakAngler 4:19 Absolutely I would and do thrown 6 inch lizards on C Rig. Now not to early in prespawn but when temp gets close to 60 degrees. When the bucks first move up to the bedding sights they will hit a lizard so hard they set they set the hook themselves
Yum paddle tailed lizards float and have a kicking tail I have caught more fish than any other lizard. Not sure if they are still in production. I bought about 35 packs of them at Walmart a couple years ago and I love them
Hey Gene in the spirit of football season you should do a challenge with someone and loser has to wear the other teams gear. I got some stoked kayaking lakes a little north of birmingham if you ever want to come try them out!!! Love the videos and thanks for all your help!!!
I dont think he mentioned it in this video but using braided mainline increases sensitivity and helps feel the bite better from a longer distance away. I'd have to say using straight flourocarbon would probably be something a more confident angler would use first. Other than that is it just me or does anybody else wanna go try that lasso cast? 🤣🤣🤣
When you set out to fish for the day, how do you decide what rig you will use? When do you decide to switch it up if fish are not biting? and what do you go to?
I may be completely wrong about this....but i swear it looks like you are fishing the shale beds on West Antioch at Rocky Mountain PFA. Subbed and happy to support a local angler!

I really like to use the eeliminator on Carolina rigs. I also use a brushhog on Carolina rigs a lot.

They do?
Flukemaster They are fatter than what you have, I’m pretty sure.

Hate the lasso cast. Growing up my dad casted his soft plastics that way. Got hit and accidentally hooked too many times to count.
