Wow! What a vid --- full of useful content. So many are gonna benefit. The info is priceless and so well put together/presented. This "series" of swimbaits with price comparisons, sizes, rods/reels, how-to's and what to expect ........ just over the top. The "vs" thought on the next installment --- PRICELESS. So So Good!!! And a shoutout to Billy! Be Safe

The 4” phantom glide bait is also a really good bait for bass. I use it for musky and pike and often pick up bass on it definitely a confidence lure for me

Big baits like these do well at night. I fish a gin clear pond ( old rock quarry) with big bass and shad in it. Hard fishing unless it is really overcast. But first hour of dark is great with big baits.

A tip for anyone looking for durable large soft plastic swimbaits look into the z-man Mag swimz, larger diesel minnowz, heroz, and the xl streaks. I have been using Z-mans large plastics to fish for musky(with there special keeper style hooks). You can get 3 7" diesel minnowz for 7$, 3 8" mag swimz for 9.99$, etc. Cheap for the amount of baits you get and ultra durable Z-man elaztech.

the 13fishing defy swimbait rod is a go-to if you're on a budget. I got it to throw the heavy swimbaits. Im a small person, only 5'1 and it easily chucks the deps250 out there. Its only 80 dollars and its lighter than my older (diawa) swimbait rod.

@Jon-nz3dm 4 жыл бұрын

WarpLoT if it’s anything like the gorgeous(yet kinda bad IMO) swimbait rods they made a few years ago then those rods are complete broomsticks. Only good for throwing single hook baits like Hudd’s and baitsmith magnums

you can get an 8ft XH Shimano Curado rod rated up to 5 or 6oz baits on Tackle Warehouse right now for 99 bucks. I have a Daiwa Lexa 300 WN on it and it’s great

@Glock-1 Жыл бұрын

I know people like Tranx reels but for now I'm going with a Piscifun Torrent 2 in the 200 size,I know people might think they are just cheap reels but I have Shimano and Lew's but i really like Piscifun and the Tranx has a 13 lbs drag but the Piscifun has 20lbs and its $50 very smooth reel, now I'm not saying don't go buy the Shimano Tranx but if you can't afford an expensive reel right now the Torrent 2 is a good choice until you save enough to buy an expensive one, and at least it will get you on the water but after you use it you might change your mind!

Sixgill is another rod you may want to look into. The "Brute" series comes in 3 weight throwing ranges and they are $169 and have a lifetime warranty. To make it even sweeter, they have Bogo sales several times a year, bringing the rod cost down to only $85 each. They also make reels, but do not have any reels suitable for swimbaits though. Just a bargain FYI.

@patrickfahie8671 4 жыл бұрын

My only larger swimbait is a mike bucca 5” bullshad I got for Christmas. No bass on it yet but I did get a 48” tiger musky on it last weekend. Also trying soft plastic Zman swimmers (6”) and mag swimmerz (8”). No luck on those either. Starting to think I’m actually not a very good bass fisherman. 🤣

@Jon-nz3dm 4 жыл бұрын

Patrick Fahie here’s a tip: Zman swimbaits kinda suck. The tails don’t even kick at slow retrieve speeds. I suppose in summer when you’re giving it some gas that doesn’t matter so much and the durability is handy.

@brendanspencer2550 3 жыл бұрын

As someone chasing tigers, would you reccomend the bullshad?

@patrickfahie8671 3 жыл бұрын

@@brendanspencer2550 I think bullshad are good for musky, excellent action. That being said, I have not caught another fish on my bull shads since the tiger. I just picked up a pack of dreamsmasher softbaits, they look absolutely amazing. They have a great wobble as well as the tail kick. Definitely going to be my main lure next time I’m out musky hunting. Here in eastern pa, musky can be hard to come by. Threw the dreamsmasher a couple minutes at a little pond to see the action and it was better than I could hope for. My regular bullshad are almost topwater, hoping to fish the dreamsmasher lower in the water column, maybe even drag the bottom.

@brendanspencer2550 3 жыл бұрын

@@patrickfahie8671 You think eastern PA is bad, wait till you see central PA. A day of musky fishing sometimes makes me want to gouge out my eyes with a spoon. Still haven't got a hold of a big old toothy snot rocket. Im planning on buying a megabass magslowl along with some magdrafts, cause who knows what'll catch em.
