    Double pitzen is what the knot is called
    It's great for spinnerbaits also and doesn't move or slide around.

    Weird question, but I don't understand Pro contracts. If I buy Aaron Martens hooks or Martens-labeled Roboworm colors, does his family get a piece of the action? I'd like to think his family still enjoying benefits of his genius.

    Floro sounds like a pain if it needs special knots just to stop it from breaking, I'll stick with mono

    Straight shank hooks don't come though vegetation well. Here in southern WI our lakes are really weedy. Even EWG hooks hang-up too much I've actually gone back to an old-school offset worm hook, since the slimmer profile gets through the weeds better. Maybe I'll try a straight shank hook with a craw or creature bait sometime.

      I fish western part of upstate NY alot we have alot of grassy bodies of water. The other week i was punching and was using a heavy duty straight shank hook on one set up and a EWG on another, I noticed the EWG came through the lilly pads way better than the straight shank did which i found strange . Also i was getting way better hook ups on the EWG which went against everything Randy said . Maybe it was just that day but its somthing i def noticed.

    Thanks Randy. I know you have forgotten more about fishing than I'll ever know, but my experience has been they swallow the hook if you let them run with it. Ive seen this especially with inexperienced anglers just starting out.

    Randy I’ve been watching your videos for about a year. I havnt seen or heard you talk about fishing a lake that is just loaded with underwater vegetation. The ponds general depth is between 6-10 ft. Starting about 100 yds offshore and obviously shallows out before that. I usually fish mostly top water there and have pretty good luck. But have tried shallow diving crank baits but I get a lot of weeds. Can you offer any advice? I do like to experiment with baits if I can get them, but these are hard times financially.

    A double uni is a connection knot for two lines, so if you're just tying to your hook that isn't a double uni. It isn't a single uni either, which is the knot I normally tie.

    Randy - the hook you are referring to is unclear in your video. Is it truly a G-Finesse? Is it a light wire or heavy cover worm hook? And the pic of it in the video is simply not enough to accurately identify it. There are actually no links in your UA-cam more section to help. Can you please respond with accurate specific hook?

  • @andrewfierro4805
    @andrewfierro4805 2 місяці тому

    Just do it regular when u measure ur hook. Pull the hook all the way thru then push it back and then forward to just the inside, very lil insides ur bait putting it in side ways is gonna make it bait swim funny.

    Does correctness not matter anymore Randy? You know that's not a double uni knot. I get that Aaron told you that, or that's what you think you heard, but that knot is no more a double uni than a Megabass vision 110 is a glidebait.

      @@donprescott9660 I’m a fishing guide so I’ve tried just about every knot out there and always come back to the palomar but what’s right for me might not be right for you. I fish braid to flourocarbon leader and do have to make adjustments like longer leaders, using shock flourocarbon leader, making sure knot is wet and not twisted as well as back off drag a little to keep from breaking off at the knot but works for me. It’s not perfect but works for my style of fishing. Nothing worse than breaking off on a hook set though I get it
