    This old man in my hometown of Okeechobee gave me that bait in 2022 and told me that he assured me that the bass and the lake has not seen this bait and they're going to go wild. He was absolutely good on his word because on my second cast I caught a bass I didn't even know how to fish it how to rig it or anyting else so I tied it on Texas rig, Alabama shake it and kill it I only have three I know I caught six Bass definitely the bait of 2022 for me lake Okeechobee. Now I'm up in Kansas for last year up by Milford. The fishing's great in spring

    I think the water displacement is the hugest thing. The ribs on it really get the water circulating around the bait. I really think that bass key in on food by feeling the water movement. I remember holding my hand in front of my face trying to see my hand It was so dark while we were fishing and catching them every other cast with a weightless Texas rig. Great show thanks for the video!
