UnderSpin Swimbait Tricks You've Never Tried! (Underwater Swim Footage)

- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Underspins are AMAZING fish catching baits! The trouble is, everyone knows it! Today we're showing the tricks we use to better match the baitfish and catch MORE FISH, when others are struggling to get bit. Spring time is prime time to fish an underspin and this is the information you need to be successful.
If you've never thrown a Keitech swimbait on an underspin, you've missed an incredible opportunity. The Keitech has put 10's of thousands of fish in angler's boats over the last few years. However, there are many other baits that do an even better job in different situations and you're probably not using them. Today Tim is breaking down his favorite baits and heads, and explaining the advantage of each in different situations.
If you're fishing around schooling fish chasing larger shad and you're not using a Largo shad, you're missing out! If they're schooling on tiny shad and you're not throw a Cool Baits paired with an Easy Shiner, you're missing out! Below you'll find Links to the exact baits and heads Tim discussed. We've included our favorite colors for each, along with some of the gear we use to fish them.

Just watched the video from last year a half hour ago. Most things in life aren't guaranteed, but getting knowledge from these guys every week sure is!
It's every single day foo!
God bless
Yes sir. Good info and good tips to pull me out of my comfort zone and trying new things and constant tips to improve on things I already practice.
I dropped the 2K like just to be that guy whom leveled y'all up!
Great tips, i love the KEITECH!
Quick question, do y'all have issues with the Flash Mob Jr running true and upright???? Mine seems to angle off no matter how I weight it as opposed to the Hog Farmers
@@Sum1Fishy that makes sense to fix it, it does always seem to favor one side
In my local lake, I use a belly weighted underspin and a 4.5 inch swim bait and it comes through all the hydrilla with ease. The water is generally gin clear, but its super stained right now. I shot some underwater video showing how stained it was and I'm going to record a few more times along the same stretch to show how it changes from early spring into spring and summer.
God is good
Always love the knowledge you guys share. I’ve caught so many fish applying your tips/tricks. Fish on! 💪
Awesome tips.
Buyers guide....pro- it's cool....con- can't afford any of it. LOL
You ever just change a trailer and be like wow they just hit this one…. Tim just explained that lol
Always love the content y'all put out, very informational. Now, please give the 6th sense divine swimbait a close look, iv had great luck this year on them, not to mention they are breaking records! Thanks
I started with the guys in the googan squad 5- 6 years ago, for info. Now I see them with millions of followers and u guys are over here giving bigger and better info then any of them ever did, and U STILL ARE. Yet half the followers l, I just don't get it. They turned into what indescribe as almost a "jackass" if u know that old show, of fishing you tube. U guys should have 3 million followers, love your channel
Now I gotta get some Flashy swimmers..since the DE doesn't dredge any of the ponds..grass central.
Alot of different sizes, alot of different shapes, different spinners, more tackle, mo money mo money mo money
But great info thanks
Always very specific with all the baits empresses me all the time and energy you spend to explain them to us. Going to try some of these soon as possible
Got my new PB yesterday on the okashira screw head with a 3” spark shad. Big fish eat the small baits sometimes too! Love all the info guys, thanks so much!
Half my big fish came off a 2.8-3.3 last year. Big fish eat them.
I'm surprised with all the times you guys talk about the cool baits you never talk about the weedless version
Hog farmer gets left out now days.?. Why’d it lose favor? Thanks
Don’t forget the zappu bredy hook for a BFS weed less underspin
Tim and Matt don’t forget the bank angler in your reviews! Thank for the tips Tim
I really like the gambler EZ Swimmer for weedless underspins. The channel on the back let’s me just hide the hook without hooking it into the bait and is still pretty weedless.
I just ordered almost everything you went over. Can't wait to try them out!
I have a question Tim but it’s a little off topic.. I was out the other day throwing a swim jig with a keitec trailer and was getting a ton of short strikes… so I added a trailer hook and burnt them up.. have you or have you heard of anyone putting a trailer hook on a swim bait? I’ve never seen a video/anyone do that
Thank you for this video.. just need your budget to afford them.. lol
Other than when bass are feeding on schools of bait fish, when would you throw the under spin? Would you throw the under spin over a traditional swimbait in stained or muddy water? Also what do you think about the Zman swimbaits?
I fish in a shallow lake, 3-4ft, with lots of vegetation such as lily pads, reeds, and grass. The water is stained year round. I’ve had a lot of success throwing the flashy swimmer through pads and grass. It is insanely weedless, and I caught my PB on it back in December. I’d definitely try it out, it works.
@@doublec1758 thanks!
I just had a 4lb chuck pound a underspin with a V&M wild shad paddle tail on it. 1st time throwing and catching on an underspin.
Bubba shad with a underspin got me a couple 5lb smallies back to back
I think your right on the money for me I use the rage swimmers or swing fats mainly in the flashy swimmer type underspins around docks and areas where fish may be set up to feed but not actively chasing bait in my lake I have a lot more luck on actively feeding fish with a easy shiner and a open hook especially in more open water I also have had some crazy days with a fluke backed under-spin as Shad when they swim don’t do those really wide kicks like a keitech they do more of a gliding action
Thanks for the tips ALWAYS!
I live in Central Florida what do you recommend right now for clear water spawn to post spawn
I started throwing the flashy swimmer a lot last fall after hearing you guys talk about it. It was DEADLY for me! I was running it through lily pads and just crushing them. Caught my PB in December with it, 6.88lbs. These things work!
While the flashy swimmer runs better in grass it’s far from weedless. That wire blade snags so much grass.
I want to know your guys opinions on googan squad/baits? Are they worth the hype?
Tim, didn't see the links mentioned at 10 minutes. Could you please list it, thank you
Great video. Underpins early spring and fall work for me. I fish from the bank so I rarely use more than a 1/4 oz head and a 3.3-4.0 inch swim bait.
I just throw keitechs and rage swimbaits and have tons of success on shasta.
I've never used an under spin before, how do I fish it? Is it a slow retrieve? Am I adding a pop or a pause to it?
I got way into underspins last fall. Definitely got me more bites. I actually ran out of them and made my own with a coin and braided line. Worked pretty well
why use spining gear when we have BFS baitcasting gear?
Coolbaits underspin with a Keitech in 3 or 4 inch
I won’t say where or what color, but the ez shiner saved me in the fall
Tim, great video. I have had a lot of success with an underspin. Even though I would prefer using a chatterbait, I still love using the underspin. Thanks for the tips and I cannot wait for the next video.
Good Cat fish sometimes 2 smoke an under spin
How come y'all never review 6 sense baits?
Underspins are so fun to throw and they get bit
I've had a lot of success lately in my local pond with a 4.75" Rage Swimmer. Definitely going to give an underspin a try next time I get out there.
The 4.75 rage swimmer is my go-to, the swim is phenomenal and it’s tougher plastic than a kaitech.
@@doublec1758 I've been surprised how tough they are. I can usually catch 5-6 fish on one before the end gets too torn up from being pulled off the screw lock. With a swimbait head they would probably last even longer.
@@JosephBliss get the larger screw locks and put them on the flashy swimmers. The stock screws are small, put the larger size on there and the swim baits last FOREVER!
"It looks like it's just a stupid bait fish." 😆
What size under spin do you use largo shad
What rod is the flashy swimmer on?
Tim do you fish a Tokyo rig with a swim bait bassmd
Not new been doing that for years
That expride B looks good
How do you fish the under spin
Tim, do you use Live Scope?
The sexy shad is a BEAST!!!!
The new gamakatsu underspins have been working this year so far for me. Love they have the screw lock keeper and you can get em from finesse sizes on up
That's my go to underspin as well! Runs true in the water column.
Hey Tim try the ecopro tungsten underspin. It comes with a trokar hook. Really good underspin IMHO. I'd love to have you review it and hear your opinion on it
Buyers Guide! Heck yes! Please tell me you guys are making the "Burn! Burn! Burn! Pause ..." sun shirt with the Tactical DD Crank on it?
TIM! You and Matt should get with tackle warehouse and have them put together “packages” that have everything you guys show on UA-cam. That way is viewers can just go and click the link and everything will go right to our cart. They would sell out fast lol
Just in time went out yesterday first day of open water pond fishin 60 degrees and ice cold water killed em on the cool baits underspin and a 3.2 keitech
Live on Champlain so REALLY ENJOY Tim's videos as I'm finesse fishing 95% of the time. Often even when I'm throwing what would normally be considered power baits, either because of the speed I'm fishing them or the size i choose to use.
Pretty sure you guys have done Saint Lawrence/ Ontario trips but i strongly urge Tim to come up for another northeast swing any time of year to simply experience the GEM that is Lake Champlain PACKED with 3-5lb smallies (average weight has risen quite a bit in the last 5-10 years since the ailwifes have hit the scene and now gobies are threatening to show up as well) . Also can regularly catch 4-5lb largemouth with an occasional 6+. Finish the trip on Lake Ontario and its possible 6+lb smallies and your livin the good life
great video but a huge underspin deal was missed. Pin tail no action trailer like a flashtrix or a 3" slugo. Excels in super cold water when the fish wont move much. Luckily I grew up around the makers of coolbaits and its been out for 20 years for us.
In stained and muddy water, there is just no better confidence I feel than throwing an underspin. 3 days ago I caught a 3lb 9 0z on a regular swimbait head, but when I switched to an underspin yesterday, I caught my 4lb 10oz PB! I mostly use owner’s flashy swimmer but I really wanna try the style with the smaller blade/hook as there is not any grass right now.
@ 2:24 you said it can be done w/o the blade but I'd catch more with the blade, now what if the body of water is super pressured by Gill nets and cast nets almost on the daily.
Very timely video for me. Can you explain the difference between the keitech swim impact and the keitech swim impact FAT? I used the first with Success, but I would like to know if you use it and when and what season what for what Bass species. Should i switch to the FAT?? Thanks, Guy
Can you guys review the 6th Sense swim baits. They are catching 10-17lb bass in Texas on them weekly. Is it the Livescope that’s helping them catch these fish or is there really something unique about their swim baits.
Thanks Tim for reminding people of the Largo Shad 🤦🏻♂️I’ve been killing them on my Lake with it but now everyone will be throwing one🤣🤣🤣
FIRST!!!🎣🙌🏻💪🏻
Haha you beat me this time.
🙌🏻🥇🎆👍🏻🎇💪🏻🎣 Tight lines buddy!!!
@@midwestfischerman You too have a wonderful day!
I'm a big big fan of what you guys do. All the info is detailed and helped me alot!
I Just have one question, i know you guys love throwing a lipless out there but have you tried the rapala rap V? Sure works great here in europe for big perch and zander.
I'd love to hear your opinions on the rap V!
Kind regards!
Actually, you don't have to settle for the smaller hook to get a smaller underspin- Picasso makes one that's got a heavy wire hook on it. It's called the Picasso single barrel- there is a double barrel if you're interested or curious- and it really works well. Has a plastic collar that slides up behind the head which has the underspin blade attached to it via a plastic, flexible arm. This way it doesn't hang on anything or break off- and you can remove it and just have the jig head if you want. They carry a 2x hook and the smaller 3/16th size is only 2/0- works great with a 2.8. It's built on the "smart mouth" head which is a quality swimbait head imo. The double barrel has two blades hanging underneath the head- but they're permanently attached- you can't remove them like you can the single blade. Once you remove the single blade it will slide up on about any jig head you want- including swim jigs. You can make a swim jig/underspin with ease- and they flat work. Megabass sells one called the Ouze swimmer but- you can make it with any swim jig using this blade attachment.
Great info Tim! Have you had underspin(or Okishira) success in very low visibility? 12inches and under? Thanks for a great channel!
If you guys throw them can you do a video on baits like the bigger Keitech's (5.8, 6.8, 7.8)
How should I fish the weedless under spin in heavy grass
I have only like 3 inches of water above heavy weeds and all the big fish are in there like 10 pound pike and like 5 pound bass. They are short striking the under spin and I'm not sure if I'm fishing it correctly. I noticed they target bushes where the small baitfish stay to hide and are in ambush spots but they never seem to commit when it passes infront of their face
@tacticalbassin I would love too see you guys review edge rods! I would love to know how they compare to the gloomis line up. Especially if they have something compared to the nrx+. I love watching your guys videos.
I really like the Megabass Uoze swimmer to change things up this time of year. It's different from what everyone else is throwing, I can work it like a jig or an underspin. Anyhow, for the guys that don't have 12 rods on deck, it gives you some versatility and switches it up a bit from everything else.
*edit....that Okashira is the bomb. I even use em on an A-rig. Again, something different.
Cool! That reminds me I have some easy shiners that I haven’t used. I will throw them on some under spins and open jig heads. Have you guys tried the Diawa 21 zillion tw g yet? Thing is amazing!!!
When would you recommend throwing big swim baits vs 3 to 6 inch swim baits? I just got my first 8, 10 and 12 inch swim baits to try this year!
Love the idea of Spring buyers guide! Thanks Tim!! ….As if it’s not already hard enough to save up my TW gift cards. Lol
Fine presentation
What NRX rod ?
What's your thoughts on the Berkley 3.5" ripple shad? I don't really see anyone talking about it and it's a great bait when fishing it for bass
What do you use when they're eating tiny bait? Like 1" to 1 and a half inches? i.e. Smith lake in Alabama.
Try a zoom tiny fluke on a drop shot or super small jig head.
@@ssoutdoors9828 I've never seen a tiny fluke.. I'll look for them. Thanks
I try to watch these videos as much as I can, even though I'm in the Ozarks, it's still informative and fun
Thanks for the video Tim! Wondering if you and Matt ever use powerbait products? I'm a big fan and believe in the science behind there products.
Just gained confidence using underspins. Caught some tanks with it
i use a weighted swimbait hook weedless in my fishery because of all the wood but i like the 3 alt Trokar with a 4 inch easy shiner works great for me sometimes I add a blade to the plastic and it works well also
What conditions are you choosing a plain swimbait head over an underspin? This video seems to suggest that the underspin is universally preferred.
Do you ever add different blades? Seems like on some of the bigger underspins the blades are too small?
I have more confidence in this bait than any other bait...works really all year round one of my 3 rods I take out always has one rigged up on it.
That Easy Shiner is a bait we use for smallmouth in Georgian bay in Canada.
Good tip to try it on the underspin.
It would be great to see underwater tail movements on modified paddle tails. Can you make a kitech swing differently?
Tip Little!
Thanks tim we appreciate the content. God Bless you guys and have a great day
Love the easy shiner on the minimax as well the hazedong from megabass
Great video , when throw jig head and when the underspin
Hey guys! I love your content I basically make all my purchases based on your videos! That being said I just picked up the new Expride B, 7'3 XH for my new frog Combo. I'm having a tough time picking out a reel, there's just sooooo many options. I am in Canada so I don't actually have access locally to a wide variety of reels mostly Shimano and Daiwa. I was thinking maybe the new Curado MGL 150 or the Tatula Elite. I'm trying to keep it under $300 Canadian.
I would go tatula elite and I love Shimano and diawa alike. That said, diawa has the best braking system made in my opinion. I'd rather have magforce z than dc. Just my opinion though.
Can't wait for the buyers guide!!! Hope line is in with one of those videos as well! Thanks for this one, I always find myself liking the underspins more than just the swimbait.
God is good
Tim that was a lot to cover. Great job.
I have a swimbait tied on all year. I've been putting more time into the megabass underspin too which is that cross from a swimjig but it's something completely different with a super sharp stout hook.
Lol...I just commented about the Uoze swimmer too. Gives ya alot of versatility and different look. You can let it drop to the bottom, and work it like a jig or use it like a normal underspin, but with secondary action! It gets bit for sure!
I rarely see anyone else using them either.
How do yall feel on summer a rig
Great info thanks 🙏
Tim is a hero. Look it up!
Just started throwing the Jackal Rhythm wave swim bait. Have you guys had any success with them or any under water footage? I found out they are very durable and a very different look to a swim bait.
I have used these when I want a less intrusive swim bait and I have found them to be very durable as well. Very good when everyone else is throwing a keitech or rage swimmer. just my $.02.
@@bassma5ter11 thanks for that. Appreciate you!
