Not a huge numbers day but still great to be out in the water. Thanks for tuning in Scott

Not yet but I did have one experience where I thought I was going in for sure. I was kayaking the creek by my house for the first time a few years back. This creek is known for fast water and has even taken lives unfortunately. I was floating backwards and I spun around because I saw rocks coming ahead and I tried to get out of the way of this one big boulder and I failed. The boulder got underneath me and I spun around 180° on top of it. I thought for sure I was going in, but I just ended up sitting perched on top of this rock backwards. Puckered is an understatement on how I felt at that moment. 😬🤣

I have seen that rigging method before. A lot of old timers do that with Texas rigged worms too. I actually have it “stupid” rigged with a tube jig head. It’s kind of like a T Rig without the free sliding weight. The hook has lead molded rounded it and is in the tube. Not sure if I could skin hook it but now I’m gonna try…🤣

Yeah it might be hard with stupid tubes

Thanks for watching J. It’s a killer and a staple now for me when fishing rivers or creeks or targeting smallmouth.

Jerry thanks for tuning in my man. For me, any day on the water is a good day. It gets even better when I can meet up with new people, and turn them on to new techniques that lead to PB’s

Yes sir!! Thanks for tuning in!

Thanks Mike

Cheers

Hey William. Thanks for tuning in. I typically use the 2/0 size and I would say they are light wire

Thank you for tuning in and watching. The Upper Peninsula is a magical place

Jim!! I’m happy to see you again and here of all places! I hope you and your family are well. I think about you every time I’m on Farabee Drive. Not sure I’m the guy for Fishing advice but if you need it I’m here.

@ I came looking for advice for fishing smallies on the local rivers out of a kayak. I mean…. This channel is pretty much exactly the help I needed!

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Yeah man for sure. Thanks for watching

Thanks for the watch! The updated version does not use just silicone. I drilled screws into the block and sealed that with silicone. That took place a year ago. So far so good.

@ I finished mine last night. Used a 1” thick , 3x4” block of HDPE. I welded it to the bottom of pod. Then screed the transducer into the block. After dying over night I held by the transducer and shook the hell out of it. Held strong.

Right on. SEND IT!!

If I thought it would lead to more bites, absolutely! I feel that smallmouth have more of a reaction to scented baits than largemouth. So if your smallmouth fishing and the bite is tough then definitely try a scented bait

Thank you for tuning in. I really appreciate it

Thanks for watching homie

David, thank you for watching!

Thank Steve. I appreciate you watching

Thanks for tuning in Homie

@@HookLife no problem man! I really do want to join you on the water next year! I need to hit more rivers!!!

@ you can join me this winter if it’s fishable. I have a pretty good winter hole by my house. BUT… we need some damn rain. Rivers are super low right now

@ no joke we need rain for sure!!! I may do that!

Thanks for tuning in Zach! You no mo nanas on the boat

Hey Michael! Thanks for tuning in bud!

Thanks for tuning in g in Mike

💯

Depends on the hook style. If the jig head has a lock or really good bend I do not use super glue. All other times yes, as long as I remember to bring it! 😵🤣

I like it!! Recently I have been having a lot of success fishing a fluke on the free rig pitching around cover and structure like submerged timber and bridge pilings in the winter. Sounds an awful lot like “plinking”. Thanks for tuning in!!

Agree 💯

Thank you very much

I prefer the direct tie personally

@@HookLife im meant to say use a split ring for swim jigs that have a horizontal line tie so you can still use the queens tackle switch blades

Yeah man! AND any time you introduce the split ring you get way more hunting erratic action, BUT less head knocking and actual chatter…

🙏🏼🙏🏼🤣🤣

Thanks for tuning in Zach. It’s a special place. Hopefully I can get this years video out…this year 🤣

@HookLife absolutely man. I thought it was recent but you must be backed up with all the footage of those hawgs you're catching. 😂

@@ZacksRealAdventures by hogs, if you mean children with softball practice. Then you are spot on.

@HookLife When it's not hook life it's Dad life. But uh, yea, that's what I meant. 🙄

Sometimes it’s all you need. It would be perfect for your BFs gear too

Thanks for tuning in

💯

Jerry thank you for tuning in. It was a great afternoon

💯

Personally I like a #1 or 1/0 with 3” baits I like a 2/0 or 3/0 with 4” baits

Thanks for watching

I have seen the small 4” versions at BPS by me. Did you find a 6” version?

Head shape and hook triangle and placement matter quite a bit when using these queen Tackle switchblade. I do not like the way that the blade contacts the head based on the shape of the head, and the position of the line tie on the head.

@HookLife Thanks I ordered the switchblade just for my 6th sense swimjigs 😞 I guess I'll have to try them on some different swimjigs 🫡💪👍
