Awesome 5 set of education on different lures You guys are awesome for doing this. No fish but some of the best episodes I have ever watched. My fingers are sore from taking notes Thanks
Love these episodes with Rich. Really priceless information. Too bad most folks still won't get it. My take on anything topwater over the years is that slower is better. Rich has chosen toppys that are way best fished slow: topper, flaptail, walk the dogs, creeper, hawg wobblers, SLOOOOOOOOW... And yes. I learned some critical stuff here. Thank you!
This very cool...like Fred bear and othe pioneers of their spots.. this legendary man Will be remembered long after he's gone Lucky guys to have met him and the passion you guys have...I have brain injury my memory my fine motor skills and balance I'm wanting to try this someday..but no boat But I want to learn mostly where to find fish On water never been at before...any ideas So if and when I could have a chance at one Someday thanks
Im still young but found an undertow maybe 4 years ago now and loved it. Seeing rich pull one out of the box actually reminded me that i still had one hiding somewhere.
This maybe a stupid ? To ask to all the Muskie fishermen or fishermen in general. First want to say I have really never went out and targeted Muskie, but I have caught a few. So to the ?, it seems like the rod he is using with a bait caster the lower eyelets are on the top, but the top rest are on the bottom. Is this done on purpose or they just didn't notice it?? Any answers would be greatly appreciated.
I got a suick nightwalker and brand new the body rolls over even at slow speeds. I snapped like a 3/8 oz weight on the front hook split ring, that kind of helped but I never use it because of that. Any way you know to keep tail baits from rolling over ?
There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of top water style lures. Iam supprised Rich didnt mention a few others like the mammoth racket raiser, lake x fot basterd, or the smittys. A good bait builder can make any lure specific to your desires.
I dunno. This stuff seems more personal preference. I dunno Rich is a good dude but he's kinda got his quirks. Those bucktails and topwater baits all work "untuned". I think it's over thinking this stuff a bit
Oh...there is a big difference when baits are tuned and built to hold a certain sound. I can probe it to you. Take two lures. A peace maker and a lake x. Both use a slightly different blade. Both are fixed deep into the body. Pull each one through the water. In order for the peace maker to match the sound and action of the lake x. You need to add curl to the blade.
@@approachingtarget.4503 yeah I understand there is a difference between topwater lures but to act like a pacemaker would only work if it's tuned one specific way is not true. I run those same Indian Creek bucktails and I don't bend any of them and they all catch fish so again it's all about personal preference
@@illmuskyhunter3313 I have to agree with you on that. I use Larry Dahlberg Whopper ploppers 175's and 190's to catch muskies. You really can't tune it cuz it's all semi hard plastic. The fish love it!

Rich is the man

I'm wanting to try this someday..but no boat
But I want to learn mostly where to find fish
On water never been at before...any ideas
So if and when I could have a chance at one
Someday thanks
Great information and video.

Great video!
Awesome info guys

You guys are amazing!
This was very informative, thank you!
Top Raider really excels on those overcast windy days. Cast it diagonally against the waves so it "rides" them like a surfer and hang on.
Fantastic!
I really like the baits I’ve gotten from TR custom lures
What are your thoughts on color choices for top water? Seems like there are lots of patterns and colors to choose from on some of these baits.
I personally like black or black orange .Ive caught fish on other colors but sound is more important.
@@richreinert927 ill take it in any color as long as it is black.
Any color is good for musky as long as its black 😆

Those baits are so small that it wouldn't matter.
Nick back the tail out a bit. Pull the tail out from the tip ever so slightly . If you need help pm me on FB
Maybe I'm wrong here but you guys didn't look too enthused with Rich's spiel.. lol

@@approachingtarget.4503 also a pacemaker and a lake X topwater aren't even close to the same shape or size

@@approachingtarget.4503 The only problem with Ty Senette's "pacemaker" is that it's almost 90 bucks! That's insanity.
