Excellent technique advice. Only issue is promoting $550 spinning combo will not work for majority of viewers. Just my .02
I was thinking the same thing for $25 baits. Is this what it's come to for a piece of plastic?
I’ve never played with the vibration on the pause. Will be trying that this winter! Thanks, Randy!
Yeah, I just graduated kindergarten. You worked with Yuki Ito on designing the 110? A rod blank doesn't know if it's supposed to be a spinning or casting rod. Builders use whichever blank they choose for either. Both are fully capable of casting, presenting and working a jerkbait.
I think kvd would be the one that shoud be giving this tip ..
Excellent video! This is how I typically work my fluke, but will try it with a hard, jerk lbsit as well
you can accomplish same on a baitcaster with a denali rod and 8lbs line. I am not saying the whip snake, is the wrong way to go, I am saying the baitcaster set up can be just as effective.
My spinning rod is $25 dollars and it catches bass
@@Between_the_numbers so what, just means you like a cheap spinning rod. good for you. long as he's catching em having a good time. 🙄
@@Between_the_numbersdo you have a link?
Can't beat the smooth drag of a nice spinning reel
Why would a baitcasting setup thats tailored for jerkbait fishing not work? Like a megabass destroyer oneten stick with 8lb line on an aldebaran
Thank you Randy. 😊Love ❤your lessons. I have already implemented your jerkbaits tips and increase catching them by 1000%.I caught largemouth #6 11 in the cold water and mine personal best PB smallmouth # 5 6 on the spinning rod and 8 # fluorocarbon .Since I have started watching your tips I have catching them more and more every time I go out and won a few tournament's both as a team and boater as well 😀
AWESOME TIPS, thank you
What size line do you prefer Randy?
Great tips Randy!
Thanks Randy good info👍
Thanks Randy for your insight, knowledge, and detailed instruction ! As always I learned something ! Thanks again !
If you want to address me in a condescending tone at least fire up the skeeter once in a while and show me how it’s done.
Hello Randy. I know you are a huge proponent of using the Megabass Whipsnake for your jerkbait fishing. As you probably are aware Megabass makes several casting rods across their different lines specifically for fishing their jerkbaits: Destroyer P5- Oneten Special, Orochi XX F4.5-611XX JERKBAIT SPECIAL, Levante F4.5-611LV JERKBAIT SPECIAL. And the Orochi XX line even has a spinning rod specifically designed to fish jerkbaits the Ronin. My question for you would be why wouldn't any of these rods be an excellent (if not preferred) choice to use for jerkbait fishing, when the leading company in jerkbait design, Megabass put all their knowledge and experience into specifically designing those models for the technique?
Bought myself a Megabass Destroyer 110 stick ( F4-65X )fairly recently , For Baicasting reel . After watching this UA-cam makes me wonder 🤔
@@rodneychandler82 I would bet you will probably love it. I use both casting and spinning rods for jerkbait fishing. I believe there are situations that call for having both in your rod arsenal. I really like using the Whipsnake for smaller jerkbaits like the 110 Jr, and X-Nanahan. But I also like using my Shimano Expride 6'10" Medium casting rod as well. Especially when the the technique calls for a more "aggresive" retrieve. Those are just what work for me, and I'm far, far, far from being an expert on the subject.
@jersey4755 yep I'm thinking along the same lines . Whipsnake for the Juniors , juniors +1 for me fall/winter fishing 👍
**looks at KVD fishing a jerkbait on a baitcaster*. .... *Looks back at Randy** ;)
Thank you for the critical information your sharing. I’m interested on buying the orochi rod but I’m 5’6 fishing off a kayak and I feel like the 6’11 rod is still too long. Do they make a shorter rod for whipsnake or are there any other options?
Megabass Orochi xx Ronin 6’8” spinning!
+1 vote for the Ronin
Do both have the same action?
Yes, here’s one you might be interested in…www.tacklewarehouse.com/Megabass_Destroyer_P5_JDM_Spinning_Rods/descpage-MBP5S.html?from=INTAG
@@BassKing916 I’m new to jerkbait fishing and tried both spinning and casting and decided spinning is best for me! Randy I feel is correct in that spinning is the best for technique! Tactical Bassin recommended the Ronin as the only spinning rod they found to be a worthy jerkbait rod! I respect both these channels for my fishing advice and have served me well!
I'm going to try your jerk bait technique in the saltwater. Trout and redfish bite them and maybe I'll get a striper.
👍
Step one, buy boat. Step 2, buy Live scope. Step 3, find where fish are. 90% of them are in 10% of the water. Step 4, watch and follow this videos technique. Bank fishermen who's fish have retreated to deeper waters which you can't reach, stay home or find something better to do with your Winter.
I have buddies that absolutely refuse to pick up a spinning rod, ever. They think it makes them look like a sissy...
He must have something against catching a lot of fish lol
@@randyblaukatintuitive Agreed. I always have a couple of spinners on board.
Some useful information in the video. However the notion of not using a baitcaster is ridiculous. Perfect example, one of the absolute best with a jerkbait is DC, guess what all he uses is a BAITCASTER.
Also, this video was just a means to promote Megabass😂😂😂😂
Megasbass even designed a whole baitcaster around the 110
Hmmm? Gonna have to try that one. It's hard to believe that with all the success KVD has had with a jerkbait, that he's been fishing it wrong for all these years.
There's a reason he's one of the best
How about a rod that's around $99??? A lot of people can't afford to spend more then that.
Abu Garcia Jordan Lee jerkbait rod 6' 8" medium
I have one and it works great
@@gabemw_3562 thanks
St Croix Triumph Series is right at $100 and if you can get it at Dick's when they have their " spend $100 get $20 off" sale, it's even less. How I got mine. I have a 6" medium 1 piece rod. Tight lines!
@@robertbrost7777 I like st croix. I got a medium heavy and I got it from dicks. Good look, tight lines to u
When will you actually be in a boat or on a pond showing us how to use baits?
He has done a little bit of that...
I can do the same thing from the Tackle room
It’s the knowledge and information that’s important not the entertainment. I have buddies that won’t watch a video unless someone is out on the water fishing and they barely know anything because they’re only being entertained. I promise if you’ll watch these videos and pay attention to Randy and go out and try the things he talks about and apply it your fishing I guarantee you will become a better angler but you gonna have to put time in it.
Not trying to kiss Randys butt but I dont think he needs to prove he knows how to get it done on the water
He’s already said he’s not doing on the water videos anymore for UA-cam because he’s working 3 jobs , a active family, consulting, active lifestyle and in between fishing and editing UA-cam videos I would imagine he doesn’t have the extra time to do so. We’re lucky enough to get all this insane knowledge
You lost me at spinning
Rod.
Without Randy, I'd _still_ be oblivious about jerkbaits.
I followed his instructions _exactly_ and landed a nice SM ... on first cast! I told him so.
That Whipsnake is of typical MB quality, and feels like it ... looks good too.
The Megabasss Whipsnake is a light action that tops out at 3/8 oz lure wt but most jerkbaits including the Magabass 110 weigh 1/2 oz so my question is are you over loading the Whipsnake rod or do you use a light jerkbait? Also you linked to the Megabass Ronin which in the description is made for use with jerbaits and it can handle the 1/2 oz lure as it tops out at 3/4 oz recommended lure weight so why would you not recommend it over the Whipsnake?
LOL! You just called KVD a kindergartener with his jerkbait fishing because that is exactly how he does it! Come on man!
If anyone isn't confident with a jerkbait; if they have crystal clear waters where they can sight shallow bass that will help fine-tune your twitch technique more than any other on the water experience you'll have. listen to randy here- then try to implement his tips where you can actually see the bass react to your manipulations of the lure. Crystal clear 10+ft. visibility lakes are my favorite for this technique.- or any time the ct. river's runnin clear up my way.
Thanks, Randy. I'll try this method. Is this method specific to any one species of black bass more than another?
Ill keep throwing one of my glides I make. I catch jerk bait fish throwing a speenerbait.
Hey Randy I can't find your lake breakdown maps?
Lol Kevin van dam best jerkbait fishermen ever period uses a baitcaster 😅 doofis/ I use a spinning reel but I it's very possible to use baitcaster just fine
What would I do without the vast amount of knowledge this honorable man has decided to bestow upon us lucky anglers?
Some useful information in the video. However the notion of not using a baitcaster is ridiculous. Perfect example, one of the absolute best with a jerkbait is DC, guess what all he uses is a BAITCASTER.
Also, this video was just a means to promote Megabass😂😂😂😂
I'm picking up what you're putting down...
Have you ever used the destroyer addermine for jerk baits.. rod spec is pretty much the same
If you have the right jerk, you don't have to do that twitch on the pause. I can teach you. This is what happens when you don't know baits or the highest level.
Love throwing jerkbaits on spin reel great tips
Randy I usually let the fish tell me how to work the jerkbait
Too bad that set up is too expensive for us average fishermen.
Dang you!!!! I learned this years ago by trial and error...I worked hard to learn the right cadence
Your giving it away.....for free😅
Once I learned this...I won 4 straight tournaments...then I took 2nd then 3rd ...after that..I won the next 5 ...was warned by everyone else if I win again I would have to take a polygraph lol... I end up winning angler of the year...I won a total of 11 tournaments that year
I was on fire because of my megabass jerkbait...but I wasn't fishing it like everyone else.. other guys were using one also but I was doing something entirely different...great video brother
.
Thx man
Nah medium light fast tip is best.
What type and size of line?
I see in years past you had an Orochi XX Whipsnake and now it seems you show more of the Levante... is there one you prefer over the other? What about the Windbuster, is it to fast/heavy?
Can others chime in, and Randy what do recommend- regarding jerkbaits on spinning gear, is it best practice to load reel with braid and have fluorocarbon leader to tie to the jerkbait (or) to load reel with fluoro and to tie to jerkbait ? And what is best Lb test with spinning with jerkbaits in general ?
Straight flurocarbon only
wow some good juice.!!
$300 for a Rod ? Hahahaha
Please god help me lol
Thanks Randy! Great info as usual. I went to the TW website and there are 5 models of the Whipsnake. Can you provide any additional details on the action and power of the rod you recommend? Also, I looked at the Ronin and it looks like it has the same actions and power but it is 3 inches shorter. I'm only 5'7" so a shorter rod may work better for me. Any thoughts on that idea?
Thanks!
I bought the Levante Whipsnake. It works great. I think Randy mentioned the Levante rod in some other videos in the past. I have been using it for the last 2 years and its fantastic so far.
I would consider the Levante whipsnake to be a medium action rod with a little bit heavy on the medium side. It is my favorite by far here’s the ones I would recommend….www.tacklewarehouse.com/Megabass_Levante_Spinning_Rods/descpage-MBLSRD.html?from=INTAG
Can you tell fish the moment to bring back personal lane breakdowns? I bought one from Matt and loved it. Raise the price if that's the issue, I don't care. Thanks!
I’ve fished jerk baits for years one lure I’ve always had confidence in and of course fished just like Randy said was not the right way so I’m definitely going to start trying your technique and on a a spinning real thanks for the great tips
When you get a bite on the jerkbait, do you give a quick pause to hook themselves and give a quick snap upwards towards your off shoulder?
Imagine a future where every kayak you see not just bass boats so 1000 times more watercraft have a 49.99$ livescope in 10 years...fishing will be officially ruined.
Ok I already catch a lot so this triple will be hard. But I think you should back your statement if not we get a free Vision 110👀
I throw all my jerkbaits on a Megabass Whipsnake and Ronin, way better than using a baitcaster imo.
Wow....I've been doing it wrong for a LOOOOOONG time. Wish I'd known this 20yrs ago. Randy, you're the best.
Hi Randy. My name is Fred aka SteelheadFred. I've committed to learning/mastering the jerkbait. This is absolutely breaking news to my world and I appreciate that. Can't wait to practice this on he water. Just letting you know that me and my circle here in Oregon are fans and supporters. Love your content (!most of it 😅)
Good tip. I have already improved my jerkbait catches by watching your videos.
Randy are there specific color I should be looking for on the jerkbaits you recommend? Fishing highland reservoir. Typically 3-4ft visibility lots of spotted bass. Mainly fishing lake chatuge and nottley
Randy this technique must be for slow rise and floaters? Will it work for slow sink and suspending baits?When do you retreive line?
Randy hi . Already bought a Megabass 110 rod . But have a Whipsnake as well 🤷♂️ .
Been following your Jerkbait Vid's . Solid info 👌. Would love to hear your thoughts on why the hooks on the Vision 110's are so scrappy / Weak for an expensive bait . Fish them primarily here in South Africa and Zimbabwe . Bend out way to easily . Not sure
Why the manufacturers don't sort it out instead of everyone having to swop them out for G Finess etc .
I’m a kindergartener.
I have a trick that has works for me.
When it does I take it off.
I do have a set of retrieves I do.
I will try this new one first.
Thanks Randy again just bought a 6”6 baitcasting jerkbait rod
Heading out to the Susquehanna River banks to try your technique on some Smallies
Grew up fishing them on spinning rods because baitcasters were too expensive setup. You know you have the right hook set dialed in when you are bringing in those fish lip hooked. If you can get a hook in the kissers then the ones that t bone it are screwed.
twitch, twitch, vibrate, small snap, small snap
Good stuff Randy! Keep those tips coming! I’ll keep smashing that like button -and those bass.
Little did I know I had the proper equipment all this time
Thanks for the tutorial Randy!
Thanks for the info, I will be using this info next week on Dale Hollow,
What do you recommend for line?
We use that vibrate ice fishing, gotta try it !!👍
Mega thanks for clearly defining this technique .
Thanks so much for this. This is the kind of teaching that I've been looking for when it comes to jerkbaits
Great info. Much appreciated.
First 😊 thanks again Randy
Spin rods only🤘
Thank you
Love this
I've said it before...I wish I could get my fishing buddy to fish it before my demise. Once you get it, it's love! An added note twitching it as a top water even in summer is productive. Floaters are the choice than. So true is Randy's message - ditch the bait caster in grab a spinning outfit with six pound line.
I must've missed it, but is he truly using 6# line???
I use this technique on the shores of Lake Erie for cold water walleyes. I have handled well over 400 fish in the past 3 weeks. 6'6" med action graphite rod , diawa Bg3000 with 8lb mono.
I cast cranks here toward the tip of the mit for walleyes in the fall from shore same thing. 6ft 6 st croix 3000 series spinning reel. 6lb fluro I cast it out give it like 6 hard reel/pops at the same time then I slow it down and crank soft and give it some pops of different calibers and reel faster then slower and sometimes will even give it a couple big rips and I am only fishing an inland lake and I have been bagging like 10+ over 20 inch walleyes a night from shore from 5:00pm-6pm. It’s been awesome. I cast mostly shallow Shad raps as where I am fishing these walleyes is only 3-5ft deep. Caught one that went 28.5 inches the other night. In the past week probably caught 50-60 walleyes over 20 inches and they all have swam away. I don’t fish for bass at all if I catch a bass it’s accidental but I respect Randy a lot.
I like the idea of that...especially the really colder water in winter...I'm probably guilty of working a jerkbait too aggressively at times.. again, there are no guarantees in fishing...i recall using a jerkbait a couple years ago, using the jerk, jerk pause technique for a few hours...no interest at all...after a bad cast, i started reeling the jerkbait in fast & immediately caught a 2 lb not more than 4 quick cranks of the handle....a reaction strike maybe? Who knows
Maybe a crankcase would have been better!
Awesome video.
What power rod please
