Gene wanted to thank you for teaching me how to fish. I had no luck for months and finally caught my first bass this week, not one but three. The largest one I caught was right at 3 lbs and I let my 4 yo daughter reel it in as it was her first time fishing. Now we are both hooked!
Good on you Brandon! Gene is a humble guy that wants us all to enjoy this sport to the fullest. Great vid Gene.
That’s awesome. Also check out the ‘Ned Rig’ to me it’s dominate 😎
That is awesome! I just started myself! I've hooked couple of little largies but have yet to get one in.
Same for me!!
You pulled that net out like some slick James Bond move and I yelled at my TV I need that! LOL
Does my heart good to see someone else try to cast before first opening the bail :). I’m assuming when you get a bite they smack it since you’re on a slack line.
I watched this at least 3 times in hopes to ingrain it in my head for the next time I am out on the water. These are some of my favorites type of videos to watch multiple times. Watch it... go fish it.... then watch it again and see what ya forgot and or do better.
Probably one of, if not the best teachers of bass fishing. Always appreciate your content.
I appreciate that!
I love how you integrate the advantages and right times to use a spinning rod vs a baitcaster. Great info!
Shaky head is a go-to rig in my homelake down in Mexico. We use it a lot, but you just taught me one or two new tricks. Thank you for an excelent video.
I've never had "fish it on a slack line" click until today. Thanks Gene.
Thanks, Gene. Learn something useful every time. And thanks also for letting me fish during these harrowed times even if it is virtually.
I just caught 2 very nice sized bass, one pushing 5 pounds today using stuff I learnt for your tutorial videos! Thanks man! Was working a lizard on a Carolina rig.
That was a awesome video. I’ve tried the shaky head but have never had luck. With the info you shared I’m very optimistic on my future outings . 👍👍👍🎣🎣🎣
Thank you for this. I learned a ton here. I learned a lot I have been doing wrong. You really are an excellent teacher.
Gene, I've been watching your videos for a couple weeks now and just love how infomative they are. I moved to Door County, WI about a year ago. We have fabulous fishing of all types up here. I get my boat in 4 days and can't wait to put some of the knowledge I got from your vids to the test. Keep up the good work bro. I like your vids the best of anyone's out there. I've been a bass fisherman my whole life and would love the opportunity to fish with you someday.
Right on. Thank you Craig.
Appreciate you pointing out the Bagley Shakeyhead jigs. They are awesome and are the only ones I use for this technique. For me, the worm has never pulled down. They really rival the screwlock ones! 🎣
Learned the FG knot last night. Switching from the uni to uni I can't thank you enough for constantly preaching it. Held up under tons of stress. Also great vid I learned alot!
One day
Thanks for all the information and instructions. I’ve been sidelined for awhile now due to illnesses. But I’ve been trying to keep my knowledge up to new techniques and ways I haven’t tried. You keep things simple to understand even for us older people!
Thanks Larry.
I've been shaking the worm since I was 14, and with your advice I finally landed a keeper at 33, I guess I wasn't wiggling the worm with enough finesse, had her mounted, now I'm the talk of the town. Thanks for the advice. lol really tho, good stuff.
Fluke, thanks for another great video. I've been waiting for this video. I've tried and tried to fish a shakey head, but have never even gotten bit on it. I know exactly what I've been doing wrong now. I've watched other vids on this subject but nobody seems to explain things well enough for me to grasp ths technique properly. Appreciate the work you're doing. I've learned the most from you, Matt Allen and Tim Little than I have from anyone else, keep it up.
Awesome, usual! Thank you for all your efforts in teaching us!
All it takes is time, finesse, patience and listening to what is being said. I hope I can do what you say to catch the big ones. I have never been good with lures or baits, I have used worms, minnows or cut baits. I have to try an learn what you guys do.
I'm the same way I have every type of lure and I can only catch things on worms.
Fish. Watch videos. Fish. You’ll get it if I can
Hey Gene! Found some Shakey Heads in my tackle bag. That I bought last year. I don't jig fish much. But love Texas rig wrinkle worm fishing. Something I learned from Dad! So I decided this week to give Shakey Heads a try. I also found some straight worms in Black color. I just bought a Quantum Smoke HD reel in 7 to 3 ratio. I will probably go with a spinning combo. But, will put it on a baitcaster combo too. Just to see and feel the difference. Really can't wait to try your techniques on the water. It's early May 2023. Spawning time in Indiana. Thanks, Gene. Your videos are really helpful! Shawn.
Great video Gene and you put a lot of great information out there, really enjoy it 👍
I was literally going to watch your old Shakey Head video after work today, but this is even better.
I watched about ten videos on Shaky Head rigging and fishing - yours was the best by far.
Thanks for the excellent video Gene, going to give this a try. For those asking about the net, I paused the video and it's a Yakattack leverage net.
Watched 3-4 other vids on shaky head worm but the guys just weren't showing and explaining anything. I had seen another vid of yours that I really loved because you took the time to show the bait and explain it. It really helped to get the extra info and I love that you don't assume I know what you're talking about and just glaze over stuff. Thanks so much. I know this vid is 2 years old, but you're still teaching! :)
Really like your videos. I’ve recently started fishing bass having just moved to Florida and I follow your advice. I only fish from the bank and found your right, everything works from a boat or the bank. Just wanted to say thanks for being such a great teacher.
Well you have definitely taught me something I obviously have been doing this wrong. Even during tournaments that I just started doing and no one gave this information thanks for the advise
Going to be social distancing on my kayak again this weekend, I'll remember this if the fish are also social distancing. Thanks for the lessons.
Just about the best training video i have seen! Thanks
Always learning more and more! Thank you for the video brother! 🤜🏼🎣🏆
My go-to rig for 2018-19. I haven't used it this year yet, but I'm sure I will.
We have to use 1/2oz+ shakyheads. Our waters so deep, anything less and it takes forever to get down to the depths we need it to be at.
Thanks to your tutorial on how to use the Shaky head I finally got some fish on it. That was the only technique I could get fish to bite on yesterday and it help me and my co get 3 place in our club.
Watched your channel yesterday and the day before that. I never watched a fishing video, and fished my whole life, knew nothing about it.
I got my first rod and reel today.
thank you! Finally, shakey-head explained in an understandable way... and I have all week-end to practice. 😊 🎣👍😎😊🎣
Really enjoyed the video, some really good tips I can use in the near future.
My favorite shaky head worm is a plasma tail. Can’t beat the action and they are great on Ned rigs!
Finally! A good, informative shaky head video. As always, Gene, you deliver. 👍
Thanks man. It's been a long time coming.
I need to try this out.
Going to a new lake this weekend gonna give this a tryout.
Thanks for your making This. You taught me how to properly work this shaken head style work rig. Awesome 😎👍💯
Gene You are teaching this 68 year old new to Bass Fishing Guy a lot! Thanks!
Great video. Shakes heads flat out work. You proved it.
Great tips Gene . Love it! 👍👊
Absolutely love my Omen black spinning rod!
Big fan of the Huk subphantis glacier pattern!
Just got my first shaky head recently. Seems like a great option for bank fishing as well since it is slow working.
Good video. Also good to see someone else forget to open the bail before trying to cast! I do that generally once every time I use one.
Thanks for the tips! Love the videos
Great tutorial. I fish rocky lakes and when my dropshot isnt working I can usually get them with a shakey head. One thing I dont think you covered in the video is using floating worms, I catch a lot more fish when using the z man floating, KVD or squirrel tail worms, that floating action really grabs attention even when you arent shaking it.
Yup its like it's on a non stop drop and we all know bass love hitting worms on the drop just naturally falling.
So happy you did this video!
Great video, thank for you for sharing your knowledge
Great live demonstration sir!
Thanks for all the helpful tips. 👍
Thanks to your videos I can take my son fishing and actually catch some bass. Thanks for the direct clear to the point videos.
I liked how Jake didn't hesitate when you hooked that fish and went straight for the net.
Went out for the first time in my kayak couple days ago had so much fun didn't catch any fish tho missed some real good bites
Im with gene on the fatter worms however i use fatter worms on the "traditional" head and skinny on the screw lock style. Its kind if more finesse. Also if you are using mono do semi slack line
Have you thought about switching the handle on your spinning rods. I know it’ll feel weird at first but it might help your hand
I’ve been using Hyper Braid yellow 30 lb. test on a spinning rod and reel. I take a black magic marker, and black out about two rod lengths of line. The water I fish is not that murky but not clear. It’s an 83 acre reservoir. Mainly go wacky rig for skipping. I catch fish with this when nothing else is working.
Thank you very much for sharing
Thanks for leaving the part where you tried to cast with the bail closed. I feel pretty dense when I do it so I feel much better about myself now. Haha.
Great video Gene. Hope the tendinitis gets better soon. I have had it so bad I couldn't even pick up a quart of milk. For someone that fishes as much as you, tough to heal something like that, as the only thing that fixes it is rest. Best of luck!
Yep. This is a bad time of year to have it.
I knew you was going fishing when I see you roll through town with your boat hooked up🤣 should have took me with you
Really good 👍 video thanks Gene and top notch camera man
I don't know who u r but u r awesome, u r knot afraid to share, luv it!
Oh i use moss green line and i never have to see my line bc everything ive ever learned is its all feel and thats so true for me. To each they own though. I also use 30lb line but its the size of 8
Great vid Gene thank you and stay safe
Have to agree I love using a shaky head it just flat out catches em and you can catch big fish as well as numbers and from my experience the size of the worm doesn’t seem to matter for me but the best shaky head for dirty water I have used is the big bite coontail worm
Smallmouth love em too
Thankyou so much !!!! it is really fun man I get more bites on the screwless one so far you rock Mr💪👍
Great video! Thanks for all the great tips 🤙
Excellent information my friend, learning all I can as I am a rookie. In this was great!
Glad you enjoyed it
I just got into using casting gear for shakey head fishing. I'm using a ewg 4/0 or 5/0 1/8oz with 15lb leader on 30lb braid, fishing around weed lines and timber on medium heavy moderate 7ft rod. feels crazy nice. then for a bit more line sensitivity and feel of what is going on I'll use 10lb braid to 10-12lb mono leader in stained water or 6-10 in clear water I'll use fluoro. then I'll use the betkley 7inch or it's step down I think it's the 5 inch shakey head worm. in green pumpkin color. and both setup are great. the casting rod is great for the power so I can work weed lines and not fear if I get pulled into the weeds I'll be able to get fish out. then in more open water I'll switch to the 7ft medium, moderate fast with 10lb braid and that 6-12leader for a bit deeper fishing and wow.
Thank you. This made my day!
Hey Gene. The tendinitis in your elbow is likely Tennis Elbow. If you wear a wrist brace when not fishing and ice the outside of your elbow several times a day it will get better. Also look up Tennis Elbow stretches on-line. Begin the stretches once it starts to calm from the rest and icing. Good Luck. Oh yeah, thanks for the vids.
Great video!!!
Now im going to have to go get me one and try it lol! Great video boss!
Taught me a lot👍🏼 thanks bud!
Gene , Thank you for teaching on the Shaky Head . I just caught my first bass on it, and Thanked you In my video !
That’s awesome man. Congrats.
@@Flukemaster Thanks
I know there are some drawbacks but have you ever tried switching the handle of your spinning reels to the right side. I do that most of the time so I'm reeling with the same hand as my bait casting reels. Casting would take a little time to get used to but may help with hooksets!
1 of my favorite UA-cam fisherman
My go to is a shakey head with a paddle tail or a Craw. Never had much luck with a worm
Try a big trd by zman. They slam those here in AZ.
Thanks for teaching!
Great vid gene
This video is SPOT ON ive been fishing it since 2012 and i do not use anything else. I always catch fish. I use baitcast and braid 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for the info. The shaky head will on the yak for hugh pfa tournament on April 17
Good luck!
A Shaky head is one thing I end up using, and have confidence in. I like throwing elaztech worms from zman, and I did get some from strike king. I have used and landed fish on 4" straight tail, finesse worms, in green pumpkin, and tried a 7" worm in june bug only once, probably in the wrong place at the wrong time. I did order some in different colors a few weeks ago, which I'll be trying out. Sometimes I'll throw these same 4" worms t-rigged weightless, through pads and weeds for topwater action. I mostly rig the worms on 1/8 oz eagle claw lazer shaky head jigs, that have a collar instead of the screw lock. I did get some 1/4 oz ones, but haven't used them much. I fish these on ML,L, or UL rods, that have enough backbone for soft plastic fishing, with BFS(UL baitcasting) reels, and either 6, 8, or 10 lb braid.
That net though! I need to find out who makes it and buy immediately!
I fish this setup 95% of the time at night. I use 7'3 jenko gambler hvy with fast action. My go to reel is slx
GENE, U ROCK... I LEARNED SO MUCH
I got my Shakey head today I can't wait to try it
Thanks for the info bud!
Wow. That’s changed the way I fish a shaky head Thanks so much
Glad it helped
That XL YakAttack net is sweet!
Nice net dude!
Added the Shakeyhead to my repertoire and it has produced when I needed it to. The one thing I will add is that while fishing shallow laydowns is that I seem to get the fish to bite most when it is slightly hung up and shake it pretty hard to get it loose. The fish attack it as soon as it comes free.
Here in florida thats exactly when they hit every type of soft plastic in my experience. As soon as it pops free they smash it 👍
@@kingghidorah7104 same if you have a overhanging tree. Cast it into a limb and let it fall, fish think its a bug.
Well I don't think I have the right jig at the moment but I think I'll try that tomorrow for the kbf or-wa-id state challenge. If they haven't shut all the ramps down.
Love your channel but why you don't teach the GT knot I use it and to me it holds it's own weight against the double uni
I was wondering when you where going to do this video lol hey you need to try the Lafayette lake behind the high school
I got tendonitis in my shoulders so i feel you on having problems with the hook set.
New subscriber and still fairly new to bass fishing from a boat. Definitely like the videos. My question and I see it on several videos what is the purpose of having a leader tied to your braided line?
Multiple reasons. Line visibility, saves you from respooling braid constantly, more sensitivity on slack line and depending on the type of cover your fishing fluorocarbon is more abrasion resistant than braid. Im sure there are other and more in depth reasons but that is the basic rundown
