    Anytime you say “swimbait glidebait” video I’m watching. Learning these baits are definitely a challenge in themselves and that’s why I love using them. Awesome video.

    Bro I love how you explained everything in a way a person that just loves the sport of fishing hope for this sport. Tournament videos are very entertaining but I do understand the cost. Just keep faith and keep believing in yourself.

    Really appreciate that you shre the knowledge you have, it's one thing to be good at something, but to be able to explain what you know and learned is not easy. Alot of other channels just fish which isn't always bad but I tend to sway more towards the teaching channels thank you.

    Yoooo!
    Another good swimbait video. I know you’ve done a few videos that are HOW TOs, but sometimes I can’t tell if you’re imparting more action with the handle, the rod tip, or both. During the video you made in your pool Cole would cut to the action of the bait, and not how you were imparting the action. Fishing the baits well is a damn art and if you don’t want to give out all your secrets I totally respect that. I have many glide baits, some of which I feel confident in my ability to fish, but most I get frustrated with and switch back to conventional ish. My frustration isn’t with not catching anything, but just that I can’t translate the action from my head to the bait. Any help with a video, or even a small clip while you’re on the grind would be amazing! Thanks for all the great content 👍

    Hey Dude great reviews and very helpful. I am just getting into fishing glide baits along with the rest of the fishing world. I would like to see you work the different glides in your swimming pool. I once had a pool ( worked lures all the time in it), moved … no pool now 😢, realty miss it. Pools are great assets to fisherman allowing them to see The response of the lure when you twitch your Rod and how small subtle topside movements create and make your bait come alive. Please keep your videos coming.

I don't think any pro MLF or Bass fisherman has ever posted anything that in depth. Time location water temp all dictate and when to use what swimbait excellent dude you rock it's like watching a modern day Al lender with in fisherman haha

    Have you dabeled with the new Gan craft 70? And if not would you be confident in saying that you could turn it into a chopping glide like you did in the other videos? An would that bait modification work with like an S waver? A BFS video would be cool. My idea was like a finess cranking system!!

    So I’ve watched the video with Matt Peterson and he said he really likes braid and I’ve noticed that you’ve gone from braid to flouro and I was wondering which is better? I think guys feel better having braid on an expensive bait but the flouro helps conceal the line.

    @dusterg2401 2 года назад

    I live in Central IL and fish alot of strip-mine lakes where they can get to 50' deep, alot of them are private and do not get fished alot. We do the typical fishing the banks and we do good for fish to eat. My best is about 7lbs. Sometimes the lakes are not very wide. But are still 20' in the middle. I have been getting the subscription from 6th sence since Christmas and just using different baits that the fish typically do not see, has increased the amount I catch. But ik some of these ponds have monster bass in them, we have seen them but can never get them to bite. The pond do not really have a big shad population. Is there any suggestion you can give me besides buying livescope(lol)???
