    When I watch your videos I make sure I do so without any other distractions. The way you instruct resonates with me. I’ve had some legitimate “aha” moments on the water trying to put what you said into action.

    61y/o smiling while listening to young dude talking about Old School. :) Just getting back into it after being out of fishing for 25+ years. Successfully, mostly, using soft plastics and other lures that sat for years. The Berkley Power Baits still smell powerful. I have been picking up some newer gear as I go along, though.
    I enjoy your content and have been subscribed since I first found you. Keep'em coming, thanks.

    I don't have a lot of veggies on my home lake but there is all kinds of brush. I think I'll give this a shot. I might even rig it with a Culprit Fat Max and see if I can't get bit. I also might try finessing it down a bit with a Missile Quiver Worm.

    Lucky Craft makes a bait called the Optigrub, 5" -curly tail -shad shaped -grub that looks like it would really work well for this. It looks sorta like a fluke with a curly tail on it.
