    For a shrimp lure I use the 6th sense Crube. I also use these for stripers and sturgeon in the Sacramento delta.
    I've actually had luck recently with 35-year-old Mann's 7" paddle tail worms (Yamamoto makes one like it now)

    A lot of options. Last week I tried the FreeRig in MX. Using Zoom Magnum Lizards I caught 30 LMB in about 90 minutes, including a 7.52. I’m sold!

    You guys got me fishing Free Rig last year over Texas Rig. I dont fish soft baits much at all. I did alittle around the early spawn this year . Good stuff as always . I may have to dig my worm rig out and toss around some plastics. See u all Sunday Same Bat time Same Bat Channel.

    The big the DoLive shrimp on a 3/32 -3/16oz free rig is🔥🔥🔥 around docks and cover. Pretty much the same thing you'd do with a brush hog type bait on a t-rig but more finessier(if that's a word) yet with the same heavier tackle. Free rigging with DoLive beavers, big gill flats, or whatever has become my go to flipping/pitching technique. The Nishine namazu is also a great choice.

    I've found a love for the SMH worms from Zman on my free rig. I use a 2/0 Double Edge Ryugi and when I give slack the worm will pull line and float back up. The worm is perfectly vertical the entire time. I'd think it's something completely different from most of the stuff fish are seeing out there.

    Can you do a video on free rigging.. I've seen quite a few and many times it looks like they're just using unpeged Texas rings.Some use Bobber stops.Is it more about the way you retrieve the rig?

    On a slightly off topic note, the windbuster is souring on me a bit. Not a fan of how short the handle is, so I can’t tuck it fighting fish. I know you mentioned the Utility player spin for slightly lighter free rig, what about it for wacky rig?

    I've been using the Dolive Beaver as a jig trailer, and the appendages rip off even on the cast. Disappointed, thought I'm not sure if it's cause I'm using the smallest version and it tears too easily.

      @@thehookuptackle_usa the action is awesome without a doubt. I've seen it with my own eyes. But even on a BFS setup it tears easily on a cast if I use too much force. Perhaps I'll need to explore tougher baits for my style of fishing.

      @JuanPerez-fy4jm 2 роки тому +1

      I’ve actually had the opposite experience they get bit! They last me a good amount of bites. If it’s a jig usually use a fínese heavier jig less force to cast like a kietech football. They get crushed by smallies up north.

    I haven’t tried the free rig . Just looks like a Texas rig to me. I thought guys would be putting more action into the bait . To create more separation between the bait and weight. But every time I see it being used. It’s fished just like a Texas rig. I don’t see the point.
