If you are interested in the 1stGenFishing Copperhead. Here is a link to it on TW- www.tacklewarehouse.com/searc...
This lure is very unique and it sets itself apart from every other vibrating jig out there on the market. The head consists of 2 copper BB's that creates a loud ticking sound when reeled through the water. This lure thumps hard and searches a lot more than your traditional vibrating jigs. First time commiting a whole day of fishing with it and it has definitely found a special place in my tackle box.

Mr. Damian . . . Nice catches, especially the last two. I hope those two will be included in one of your future "Big Bass" video compilations. I think it's awesome that 1st Gen Fishing provided you their prototype of this bladed jig. Are they one of your sponsors and do they ask you to provide feedback and suggestions on what could be improved in this bladed jig's design? Another enjoyed video 🤙and looking forward to your next one 👍!

Thanks! yes 1st Gen Fishing is one of my sponsors/supporters, they are local to my area as well. They do ask for feedback and thoughts on lures. Great group of guys that creates lures that is much different from what every other big company is doing.

My go to bait for big bass at clear lake when I was fishing tournaments was a large spinnerbait on along cast sink it outta the bottom and slow roll it back right on the bottom or a large swim bait fished the same way as .out of that lake is around 15 feet deep and we would win a lot of tournaments that way back then there were no chatter baits in colder months occasionally I would fish a deep large suspending crank bait with a stop and go retrieve

What’s the name of that bait and the trailer?? I was up there this past weekend, I fished the southern end of the lake and did pretty’s dang good on Saturday. Got myself a small boat (Drift-Boat) normally I’d be salmon fishing, but obviously that’s not a factor. I’ve gotten into bass a lot the last couple years and clear lake is amazing. My drift boat with my 9.9 mercury and trolling motor does the trick as king as the lakes weather cooperates. Anyway I caught most mine on a drop shot. And my biggest was 6.7lbs, nothing like your big one. Anyway sorry for rant. I’m new to this chatter-bait, unfortunately haven’t hooked any fishing them yet. Curious on any suggestions for specific type of chatter bait. And the trailer? I fished a keitech on the back but no luck. Thank you so much. And when will this bait be released?!- And where can I order

@dthao92 7 ай бұрын

Honestly it doesnt have any good bank access other than on the freeway side but the water is quite high so makes bank access really bad. Only other places i can think of is fishing off the dock at keeling park, ive done good there fishing off of it. But i wouldnt go unless if i got a boat, kayak or a guide trip

Not trying to sound negative, but seems you are reeling fast and horsing these fish in, instead of taking your time and tiring them out a bit. Maybe it's the tournaments that get you in that mode?? Anyway, nice fish and thanks for taking us on the water with you!!

@dthao92 7 ай бұрын

There's a lot of reasons for it. 1 i was trying to put a lot of stress on this new lure to see how it holds up. Wanted to see if the split rings or the snap will straighten up or pop open. But with my chatterbait rod, its a soft rod and has a lot of parabolic bend, i have it paired to a 6 gear so it may look like im horsing fish in all the time but i just need to keep pressure on the fish and let the rod do all the work. I like to get them near the boat and fight them there rather than having to take my time and fight them further out because theres high chance they'll get snagged. I have better control of the fish if im fighting it by the boat.
