I feel like you made this rod for me. Us spinner pole guys need a rod that was designed for it. Not just a blank with the guides on the other side. I will be grabbing one.
I’ve seen so many Videos of Guys bashing the Drop Shot Rig and man it’s saved many of my tough fishing days and kept me catching fish when nothing else was working.
I've caught a lmb for the first time on a neko. I use a hook that has a wire weed guard. And take some nails from Walmart for the weight. I hook into the plastic. I've not thrown it off the hook. It's a cheap way to do this without spending to much money on this rig. You can neko rig just about any small plastics and it's a lot of fun.
I decided to begin Neko rigging again. I started 2 yrs ago and began Giko rigging & left Neko alone for a while. Tomorrow I decided to go back to it so I wanted to watch this again. All the hoopla about rings and cross over bands being used to me is silly. I try to keep it basic but I've been finesse fishing for many years and I never used O rings until I was given a handful of them. I've used mosquito hooks, live bait hooks and even small EWG hooks. I prefer size 2 hooks and I love Mustad Titan X weedless wacky/Neko hook. Just my serious hook for serious situations. #1 Mosquito hooks are nice at times but that's a different thing all together. I like the lightest weight I can get by with also. 3/32 is ideal but if I throw a Trick worm, I like a 1/16oz. Thanks for sharing this video. Helps me get my game plan together
B we need a 24hr fishing channel just strictly for fishing with all your fishing friends to teach things like this. Fishing on all the places they like to fish. I think you can you can pull this off. You are such a great inspiration to all of us who like to fishing!!
I like your fishing style but I'm from down south not to many smallies. Do you have any large mouth bass advice for late summer. Texas weather 90 to 100 deg
@@petetorrez3028 during the summer when the heat is really intense, bass will hold tight to cover and go deeper..... I suggest drop-shotting baits in areas that have a sharp drop, or deeper sunken cover like logs, brush, foliage and rock piles.... When fish hold deep, you also have to slow down the action of your bait.... Deep and slow is the key..... Also, try switching up and doing your fishing for bass at night, it really gets good in the evening.... When fishing at night, use lures that are black, or blue and black.... Any dark color will create a visible sillouett that the bass will see.
Dropshot holder is a great idea! Love the design. I’m looking at scaling down all of my fishing gear and going with a couple nicer rods. Thanks to you and MDJ, I’m seriously going to shop the Favorite rods.
Great tip! I usually carry small sections of clear, plastic straws for using as siphons to draw up dyes from the bottles. The plastic straws then take on the color and scent of the dye. I will make a video on this later.
I had a look at St Lawrence river MLF results. Whatever about days one and two. Day three really sucked. For a bunch of the 'top' contenders there. So it goes to show. It ain't easy. And when you look at it. Standing back. Around a half dozen anglers. Have that river figured out Brian. And that's really all.
I know 'the field' for that tournament was. Whatever the entire field happened to be. But there's really. A handful of guys. Who know how to really handle that river. And that's it. Period.
On the bass master elite side, Taku went away with it. Ninety pounds weight. It's about trying to figure out. The goby coming from the great lakes. And how that small bait fish. Has affected bass schools. Taku found bunches of a hundred fish. All five pounders and more. They were around Zebra muscle banks too.
I always say it. Watch what shoreline saltwater anglers do. England or Japan in particular. Figure out what bait fish are doing. And it's easy 'map' what larger shoals of predators will do. Same as in saltwater.
I've read multiple articles on it now. The goby population has changed things up there. And it's thrown a lot of anglers off I think. The MLF 'day three'. The top fifty guys. Some only got 'a fish' (almost zero'ed). On day three. And loads of those top fifty. Had rough day two's (while many people, put up weights that compensated for lousy day two's, in their day one weight). The deeper jerk bait. On day one. Might have been worth a shot. I don't know.
In the bass master elite, they had access to the lake too (and I think that's where the big weights there were caught). My guess is. The lake population of goby in July. Had something to do with it.
moving the keeper back is such a help I have 3 #favoriterods #defender spinning rods and the line is always hanging on the keepers on slack line in the wind I had to RIP off those keepers on the defender rods because they were in front of the reel in a very BAD place
Man I saw the thumbnail and immediately thought about Smallies! My local Columbia River Gorge bronze’s ought to destroy this. 🤙🏼 Thanks Boss! Tight lines.
If you ever have the chance, I would love to see a video on how to catch bass when the water is muddy...Almost everything I have to fish within reasonable driving distance is muddy water...Some of it is just like Yoohoo water! I see people catching fish out there but I have been struggling hard this summer...I'm good when I have a 1ft-2ft visibility but it gets to like 2in-3in visibility here...
New Subscriber here Brian! 🤙🏼 Awesome video, and very informative. I really loved your tip of using a drinking straw to reinforce the plastic worm, pretty neat trick and Ingenious Idea! 🙌🏼

Great video. Even at 65 I can learn something new.Thank you!!
Great video buddy,kept them coming
I want one of your signature spinning rods but I can’t find one anymore 😢
B Latt, I use shrink tubing instead of straw..
I really like to watch your videos Brian.
Nicely done,your my number one now,closest to my lost favorite Aaron Martin.

Make em go "oouuoOoGhh" 😩😂
Hey Brian. I've had success rigging these on a vmc crossover ring. It holds pretty nicely. Worth a try!
That drinking straw tip is 200 IQ! Thanks BLAT.
OW NOW BROWN COW! What a Unit, long live the bronzebacks!
Looks like Champlain.
I don't even fresh water fish and still like your videos. Your a great teacher!
I honestly started getting into finesse fishing from watching your channel, thanks for the tips man! Trying to upgrade the finesse arsenal!
Great channel I am along for the ride great information
Do anglers spray their baits with attractant spray or what? I've tried so many technique with little results!

Brian Latimer is also a Southerner....he's from Anderson, South Carolina

Who are the 8 ppl wit piss in their cheerios? Lol another goodin b lat 💪🏾💯🎣
Great video Brian! I learn so much watching you fish, you are a great teacher. Thanks
Way cool idea
B.Lat dropping that freshness.🔥🔥🔥
What is the size of the weight?
French fry
do you also have 2 piece rods?
I use 2/0 or 3/0 circle hook, for wacky and neko rigs.
Ur videos are so good and instructional, literally helps me so much
great advice from a legend im deff gonna try this out later this week.
I LOVE IT❤️👍🏾❗️
Gonna Try It Next Week❤️👍🏾❗️
Look at those footballs!🎣🎣🎣🐟🐟🐟
If that was tournament day you'd been begging for that fish to stop jumping. 🤣
I tie my old braid 15x wrap clove hitch around where i run my hook through . Helps make them smaller plastics last longer

Lol people in California can't use plastic straws Brian.
you can also use heat shrink tubes

Is there a link for that rod?
Another good video Brother Brian. Bust up them gangster smallmouth that keep interrupting your video!
