I love the fact that you guys are keeping the production and filming simple and to the point. You are not trying to impress people with fancy filming techniques as many others do which completely takes away from the intended educational purpose. I am happy to write. I am happy to write a comment like this as the guy that works in the film and tv industry for the last 25 years.
Hey Iggy, Much appreciated on the positive feedback and stoked to hear that you are enjoying our high end productions ;) At the end of the day we agree with you about the educational side of things. We are just a bunch of fishos and we're keen to see others enjoying the sport and having success, so any tips and techniques that we can share we are happy to. All the best. Cheers, Justin
Absolutely the best videos on soft plastics and jiggs. Lads, I have researched the UA-cam intensively on these topics and Tackle Tactics are by far the best vides. Clear and visual explanation with examples. Idiot proof. My 6 year old daughter learns from these videos. Amazing. Keep it going fellas.
Hey Iggy, firstly we are pumped that your 6 year old daughter is watching the vids and learning from them, that is really cool and we hope to see her hooked up to a few soon. Thanks for the kind words on the vids also, we really want to make a no nonsense, nuts and bolts series that helps fill in the gaps for anglers and gets them hooked up to a few fish, so reading comments like this inspires us to keep working on them. Cheers, Justin
Is that Bob Bell? Outstanding video mate. I’ve never caught a fish on a lure so I’m going to use your vid as inspiration and have a crack this weekend. Thanks for the brilliant tips and advice!
Just found this channel. subbed and liked. This was a very helpful video. I have made a note of the stuff you mentioned that I haven't got, so it will be off to restock.....soon
It'll work well enough. If you're dropping straight down or not casting far I reckon the hidden weight system jigs in a 1/12 on a 2.5" grubz is the way to go, if you can find them - they can be a bit hard to get around where I am. I wasn't having much luck at all until I down sized my jigs from 1/8 to 1/12 or 1/16, and then it all started happening :) It's amazing how much difference such a small change in jigs made to my results. I'm no expert of course, so see how you go. By the way - I'm not associated with Zman/TT. I use all brands (including cheap off-brands), and generally have similar results. I like the ZMan plastics because of how long they last, but they're a PITA the rig sometimes, particularly on a kayak. I usually pre-rig a bunch of ZMan lures before I go, but when I'm on the water, I use old Squidgies plastics, because the plastic is kinda crap and they go on to jigs with no fuss. They don't last long though.
I use both S-Factor and Pro-Cure, and I've been keeping track of the catches, and so far I've found Pro-cure to be a little bit better - 58% of my catches have been on pro-cure (adjusted for usage). However I think I prefer s-factor because it's easier to use, seems to stay on the lure better, and doesn't smell on your hands. Pro-cure probably works better specifically because it is so much stinkier.
Hey T S, the shallow and deep sections will vary across different systems and current can also dictate head weights a little, however I generally refer to shallow water as less than 5 foot and it often entails the areas around mangrove edges, flats and the edges of rock walls, etc., stepping into deeper water as you go beyond this and it can often be time to start moving toward a 1/12 and even 1/8oz jighead for deeper flats and drop offs. Once you hit the main channels, seaway and river entries, etc. in 10 foot plus of water and especially with more current anglers will run a lot of 1/8oz, 1/6oz and even 1/4oz for bream. It's a matter of feeling it out a little for different systems, however this is a basic guide. All the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin
Hey Peter, they are readily available, can be caught from a boat, kayak, land based, etc., eat lures and are great fun on light line. They are a great starting point for anglers and at the highest level in a tournament with 100 boats can be pretty tough to catch with plenty of high level techniques and ultralight gear employed to get a fish in the live well. Each to their own though and there's plenty of variety out there for anglers to chase. Cheers, Justin

How have you gone so far mate?
Your vids keeps getting better cheers.

Loving these vids, can't wait to see a flathead and mangrove jack species guide like this
Thanks Tim! Flathead next week and we'll work on a jack one... that might have to be an in the boat one though ;) Fish on!
@@tackletacticstv7687 looking forward to it
Excellent video once again. And I agree 1 for flatties would be great
Thanks Damien, much appreciated. Hope the flatty one does the job for you. All the best with the fishing. Cheers
Great vid man, I’d love to see one about rigging the hidden weight jigheads in Zman soft plastics 👍👍
Thanks Guys, will make a note and see how we go... might be time to plan a canal adventure! Fish on!
The place you are setting in seems very nice, I love nature.
Good information in the end.
Great video man!
could you do the best soft plastics for jungle perch
Was chasing flattys on 4" minnowz. Couldn't get past the bream 😐
Is jig heads 1/8 recommended for bream fishing on kayak at Bay areas or when water is a little bit choppy. Thanks!

Great stuff. I got a pack and will try them out.
Hi didnt cathch the lure name 2.5 inch TRD claude? is that correct the one that looks like a yabbi? thanks
TRD Crawz
Thanks for good video
I think you should do a rod, reel and line for soft plastic
Hey, I just bought a squidgies s factor scent for my soft plastics, I was just wondering if you had used it and what you thought of it?
I use both S-Factor and Pro-Cure, and I've been keeping track of the catches, and so far I've found Pro-cure to be a little bit better - 58% of my catches have been on pro-cure (adjusted for usage). However I think I prefer s-factor because it's easier to use, seems to stay on the lure better, and doesn't smell on your hands.

Cheers Mate!
Thanks im new to plastics and now I know what I've been doing wrong
THANK you so much man
No worries Tattooz, all the best with the fishing. Cheers, Justin
So how far abouts can a fish see your swim bait?
Depends on water clarity on matching your plastic to that
How many inches?
This is de best 😎
Thank you
How do people put soft plastics on hooks so perfectly...
Practice
my right ear got a pounding
So which type of bream are we talking about 🤷
How shallow is shallow and how deep is deep? Haha thanks

hy!
Why do people target bream legit question.
Good sport fish
Hey Peter, they are readily available, can be caught from a boat, kayak, land based, etc., eat lures and are great fun on light line.

😒 jack ass.
i am the 666th person to like this vid... did i just catch my last bream? sheitza
