1st I like to say thank you for all the great info in your channel. I'm from Vineland so it awesome to have a pro in your back yard. I recently started watching you and I noticed you are a fan of crawdad color. My monster bass box comes most of the stuff is red. So I go to blackwater pick up white and silver zoom flukes and dye them with JJ's magic dip red top chartreuse body. Decided to go out on a rainy day in your stomping grounds and use the donkey rig it looked like goldfish in the water. 2nd cast 3.9, 4th cast 3.8. Watching S. Martin, K. Fischer, B. Latt and yourself I picked up a lot. I had people pulling over cheering me on. On the 27th is a little tournament at Elmer lake I would've never thought about doing it if it wasn't for people like yall. Wait better get my pond prowler registered. Thank for all the info. Tight lines.... thinking about starting a channel called every chance I get.
Mike I've got this idea to use a big Glide Bait, in the ocean. It is a specific situation that will require the Bait to sink to 70 feet under. Whatever weight it requires. It has to drift down under a huge school of herring to attract the Pacific Salmon underneath them.
Good tips I have plenty of suspend strips already & reflector tape. I'll b putting that on my glides this evening to try tomorrow. I've been fishing medium 6" soft & hard swimbaits couple yrs now. Just recently started playing with larger swimbaits both soft & hard. I have a 9" glide that is a sinking bait but I can't see it far away so it will have a taped head for sure!
I don't know why I didn't think of using feather or bladed hooks on my glides! I do on all my other moving hard baits. Great stuff Mike, thanks as always.
Thanks for the tips Mike. I just purchased a glide bait and was unsure of how to weight it so it looks more realistic in the water column. These tips should hopefully get me on the big ones in no time.
I like Ike, but I’ve never used “blades” or “feathers” and have had great luck out of the box. I guess this mods could entice them a bit more, but in my experience it doesn’t matter as long as they like what the glide bait is doing-especially close to the boat-I’ll kill it and have seen bass watch, watch and the bam!
Thx for the tips Mike! That's a serious stache you have there!
Power Stache
Thank you so much i just started fishing the s-waver 168 no bites yey but I am gonna add you mods to my bait thanks again
you got it, good luck!!!
That was super helpful, the drop shot weight is smart for even weighted areas on both ends & definitely going out to get my glides to tie feathers on
Nice to see you promote a storm product.I remember when you were Diawa and Wiggle wart guy.Always pushin the good stuff keep it up.

Beautiful swim bait Iove it it would be great for Pier fishing 🎣
Those are some great tips for glide baits. Always see them following my bait and hope this helps!
I see that big pile of Swimbaits back there. That’s a good selection of hard baits behind you :)
🤫
Thanks Mike. Will definitely try here in south Africa. Love the content
Good luck over there!!
Thanks for the good tips...I was thinking on adding red treble hooks instead of red feather
Great simple mod tips.

Great mods and great tips!! So much yelling. 😅. Awesome enthusiasm
Those are great tips Mike. Thanks man. ✌🏻🎣
Smart 👏👏👏👏👍👍 thank you !
you're welcome!!
Great information thank you for sharing

you're welcome!!!
I think I like to modify my baits and test them more than actually fishing 🎣...lol
It's truly a sub-addiction within fishing hahahaha
You will get it one down one day. And you’ll be fishing more than you test. Promise!

Man I've started playing with those bladed trebles. Get a natural looking wake bait put one of the bladed trebles on the front.
Gotta try that!!
Nice!
Thanks Bryce!!
What rod mike?
What size treble do you suggest Mike? It looks like that red dressed treble is not available in a 2/0 which is what comes stock with the Arashi Glide.
My God that is a magnificent mustache.
Now i MUSTACHE you a question! See what I did there?!
Does that fu-manchu ever get in the way while fishing lol?
At times I use it to cut knots
Was thinking about using mine for musky or pike could I use a steel leader with a snap on it
What kind of stickers are those Ike?
Loved it , thank you mr.Mike
Anytime spooky!!
