This GIANT Japanese Prototype Swimbait Might Change Glide Baits Forever?!

In this video, Phoenix and I spend some time with the Japanese fishing brand called DRT as they host an event as well as take us out on Japan's biggest lake, Lake Biwa! While bass fishing, we were able to try out a new prototype glide bait called the "Pharaoh" which is made from a cloth material and hard inner shell. Is this a look at the future of glide baits?

Geoff, learning Japanese is a huge sign of respect for them. You are definitely a pro that merits more recognition than most that are into JDM.

@crazybassfisher 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for the kind words, the plan is to have more in depth conversations with the guys I admire over in Japan very soon and hopefully share their knowledge with the guys here in the states. The only way to do that is grind the language 😂

I wonder what kind of shrimp or crawfish 🦞 are in that lake.. that’ll be an interesting bait to throw.. match the hatch. Jig like lure maybe.. I’m sure they figured it out. Sometimes people release pet shrimp that maybe become abundant and a good food source for bass that goes unnoticed because of catch and release and the stomach contents are never revealed..

@Pierrepadda 2 ай бұрын

do you sometimes fish 40-80 feet deep pelagic where there are bait fish nearby. in Sweden, in recent years we have started fishing for pike with great success in that way. large fish that rarely see a bait and that only hunt in open water over great depths. Maby big Bass Do the same.

Geoff, could you please tell us more about that giant swimbait? It looks to be a mixture of some sort of Plastisol and a viscous rubber maybe, wrapped around a reticulating chassis?? Looks very interesting and also very heavy. Would love to know more about it. Maybe part of an upcoming video?

@crazybassfisher 6 ай бұрын

The only thing I know is that there is an inner body that is covered by a cloth material. The bait is actually relatively light in weight actually, around 6oz or so

@@crazybassfisher I love seeing innovation in the industry like this. With all the new printing options a material based bait like that can look so real. I’ve thought about just doing tails out of a waterproof fabric so it has that natural movement that is so tough to reproduce. Thanks for sharing bro

These videos are really making people not want to fish Japan. I have never seen multiple “fishing” videos of “legendary” spots where nothing is caught and everyone acts like that’s normal. Any major lake in the southern US is going to smash Biwa. But it’s Japan so we have to think it’s cool.

Are you catching any fish in Japan of these swimbaits or just enjoy to cast and retrieve bigbaits? Japan looks so fishless (fishing is just that bad) compare to Far East Russia. People catch a ton over there just on any bait.

@crazybassfisher 6 ай бұрын

Yes, guys catch fish all the time out there, we just showed up at a bad time of the year but yes, the fishing is much harder there than in most places
