    Mike, I own about 60 blade baits from various brands, watched dozens of hours on blade bait fishing videos, know the tricks and fish the tricks but this might be the PLATINUM STANDARD for blade bait fishing. SOLID job, sir and thanks for educating the faithful.

    Here in Aus, we remove both trebles and run just a set of assist hooks on the back end. Works brilliantly bouncing off the bottom for the bottom feeders.

    Thanks for the great video. I feel like I should have had to pay for the lecture. I’ve been fishing my whole life but recently am really taking the time to learn, take notes and practice techniques. I’m excited to have found your channel! Tight lines!

    Great bait, great video! Back before they had the two pronged hook(or I just didn’t know about them) I used to nip off the front facing hook off the trebles.

    I just had the best smallmouth day I have ever had casting blade baits and retrieving on the steady retrieve. Rip rap below a dam on the Mississippi, never caught so many fish. Wow, I am a blade bait believer!

    A huge believer of 1/2oz blade baits for walleye. Many times it outperforms a jig and minnow.

    Came for the tips, stayed for the "rrrdddiitt"'s . Thanks Mike! "Heddon Sonar" was the first thought I had when I read "blade bait". It may have been the original one. 1959. By contrast, Silver Buddy was 1983.

    I make my own and use open single eye siwash fishing walleye. Just crimp right on the blade, don't lose as many blades. Hooks them right in the top lip.

  • @timdinh39
    @timdinh39 7 місяців тому +1

    I used to switch between trebles and frog hooks, but now I found out it’s better in my opinion to use one of each. Frog hood at the front, treble at the back. Some blade baits come standard like that too. Fyi frog hook at the front to help deter snagging. Treble at the back to help hookup ratio.

  • @stephenbeaver2035

    Hot in Florida today 97. Catching bass on a blade bait the last 2 weeks. I think the heavy pressured fish may not have seen many of these. Green and silver cicada.

  • @BenEvans-zk7xs
    @BenEvans-zk7xs 2 роки тому +1

    Hi Mike, love your videos!!! They are so helpful, and full of info! I was wondering what brand and size,two prong hooks you use? Im looking at replacing my regular trebble hooks on my blade baits.

  • @charlescunningham7056
    @charlescunningham7056 3 роки тому +1

    Mike have you tried the new technique from Japan called the Meta Bama. It’s a blade bait with minnow lure on the hooks. Thought I would see if anyone has used it yet

  • @williamlawrence4853
    @williamlawrence4853 3 роки тому

    I always used the back hole for the yo-yo retrieve. Always made out better like that, think it was because the head was angled down. I haven’t fished one since the late 90’s. Going to have to dig through my old boxes and toss one this spring.

  • @emach07
    @emach07 10 місяців тому +1

    lol yup, looks like a slab of metal. First time I saw one I thought, "Nno way! No fish is stupid enough to bite on that thing!" It's now one of my absolute favorite lures. I got at least 30 of them now 🤣

    • @emach07
      @emach07 10 місяців тому +1

      I've got to add, now that I have completed the entire video. I've watched TONS of blade bait videos. And this one? Holy Wow!!! Every question I never got answered in all the others combined was in this one. Thanks a bunch!

    I still have some Heddon Sonic blade baits from the 70's

    • @bradleyrussell1973
      @bradleyrussell1973 Рік тому

      The Sonic was NOT a blade bait. It was one of the first lipless crankbaits, the forefather of the RattleTrap. The Sonic was a 2- piece hollow plastic vibrating lipless.

    • @bradleyrussell1973
      @bradleyrussell1973 Рік тому +1

      The Heddon SONAR was the bladebait.

    Blades work good for multi species ice fishing too. It's my "go to" bait. On almost any day, I can out fish the others, if I use blade baits. They work good in summer too. The VIBRATIONS bring the fish in. THIS is the bait to use scent with. Without scent, it's just another piece of metal down there.

    So would u fish the blade the same way for Smallmouth as you do Largemouth? I've only ever fished it for largemouth in stained water

  • @robfunke909
    @robfunke909 3 роки тому +1

    Mike I have noticed first hand with bladebaits that when the water gets real cold, the fish I’ve caught are only on the back hook, I was wondering how you felt forgoing the middle hook for a slightly larger back hook?
