I still have box's of Rebel square bill crank baits, both shallow and deep. They fill 80% of my S.B. Fishing. chrome in clear, gold in stained. Bandits make up the red and chartruse needs. I change out the hooks to owner wide gap short shank trebles. They hold big fish stay on better and dont hand near as much. Good seminar!
Hi Randy. I just have to tell you that I have been following you since you first teamed up with Johnny on fish the moment. I am a shallow water angler by choice. I absolutely love close quarters fishing. And I absolutely enjoy this channel and the in-depth information that you share. I always look forward to the next video.
Was watching a recent piece published in Montana, by an angler there who based his fishing tactics on the original crank baits, which worked for trout on creeks and rivers. Many decades ago.
The Slide Inn channel demonstrates how those anglers nowadays do something similar to crank bait lure throwing, except in very fast, down hill water rapids.
As far as history goes, even back to fifties, sixties and seventies. Trey Combs spoke on ep 533 on Wet Fly Swing, about his book he published in the early seventies. What Trey explained he didn't realize at that time, was how many anglers he wrote about in the book. Who were not around much longer, and Trey explained that fishing in western Canada back then had lots of people doing their own thing, but no sense of the community of anglers together had existed then. The book was the first time that community started to realize they were doing the same thing.
The interesting connection back to Montana and the Madison of the present day. Is that Galloup featured in the episode of the Slide Inn, was present in western Canada not long after Trey's book was published. But he was also watching bass anglers a lot, so much so that they developed flies that did things like crankbaits. And they started to target water that crank bait anglers on the rivers did. That's the connection that goes back many decades, and in some way continues until now.
I'm glad to see you throwing little crank baits on a spinner. It used to be the only choice I had, but I like it and it makes sense. Seems like I see people only using baitcasters.
Here's a retrieve that will fool big bass that have seen every lure in the boat...make the cast...wait ten seconds...make one easy twitch...wait five seconds...rip the crankbait under for about two feet...hard twitch...hold on.
@@clay7514not close brother the 1.2 is 2 1/3”long dives to 4’ The 1.5 is 2 1/2” long dives to 5’ Then the 2.0 is 3” long and dives to 6’ deep. That’s MEGABASS they are not numbered like anything else at all
Where you are fishing is far more important than the size of the dang lure, or the color. If you don’t believe that, throw your overpriced squarebill in a swimming pool and tell us how you came out.
No one making to watch or even be here kid !! But if you won’t to lure something close your mouth and open your eyes and ears!! I’ve been fishing over 44 years. An I’m on the water every day and what Randy is talking about is how we where fishing and catching fish well before you when everything that works we found out worked by weeks months or even years of work we put in with a 5’5”-6’5” pistol grip and putting in 500 to 700 cast a day and moved up to what we have how and can go put 1,000 cast before you even wake up so grow up. An go to stoked pond and starving fish 😂😂😂😂and your video game
You're an excellent teacher. I'm a new bass fisherman and watching your videos has helped me catch quite a few already.
Excellent!
Great video. Love throwing a squarebill. 👍

Could use a video on winter (not frozen) lakes and what lures and setups work to find em.
Good video as always, thank you Sir!
He just done a video on winter fishing not long ago. The best baits and areas to fish.
Bottom line is, bass fishing can be mind boggling.
first! lol I will get bak with ya after I watch it. Thanks Randy!
What are they on blue back herring highland lake ?
You sure those 1.5s are 1.5 inches? Seem longer than that. Unless I misunderstood you
They are 1.5 inches not including the lip
It can also refer to diving depth
@@gregchilders7643 yea randy said the 1.5 is 1.5 inches.
@@clay7514not close brother the 1.2 is 2 1/3”long dives to 4’
The 1.5 is 2 1/2” long dives to 5’
Then the 2.0 is 3” long and dives to 6’ deep.
That’s MEGABASS they are not numbered like anything else at all
