5 Tips To Catch MORE Bass Flipping THICK Grass & Vegetation 

If you need a closer look at how to tie the Snell Knot here's a tutorial for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GXuE-OxYeUM.html

I'm actually glad your boat was in the shop. I'm a bank angler myself.

Good tips on how to rig and flip Vegetation . Double cast first cast catch :) Nice little video .

The Snell debate.... In 2019, I decided to settle for good, in my mind, the knot debate for punching/flipping ~ I fished hard from late May through late September on a handful of good grass lakes in my area, splitting my time using the Snell and Double Palomar... I had to annoyingly keep track of all my bites and I got a lot... I hooked and landed almost 12% more bass using the Double Palomar, overall. I punched shallow and mid-depth mats, pitched Milfoil, Cabbage, and Coontail, worked thick water willow, and across the board I did better with the Double Palomar. Most of the time I was using 3/4oz & 1oz weights, occasionally using an 1 1/4oz, and rarely using 1 1/2oz. Using the Palomar, the hook to land ratio on the 3/4oz and 1oz weights was nearly identical, landing 86% & 84% respectively, but once I jumped to the 1 1/4oz, the success rate decreased by almost 6%, and the rate decreased by just over 12% with the 1-1/2oz weight. The percentages using the Snell were worse than the Palomar in every weight category and grass type (all weights pegged). My sample size was 146 Largemouth and 16 Smallmouth, so plenty of fish to draw a definitive conclusion. When flipping grass my hook-set is to reel tight until the rod starts to load and then sweep up and over my right shoulder while reeling. I DO NOT Slack-Line hookset when flipping heavy weights in grass or in general. Shimano Expride rods (H - MF & XH - MF), Shimano Curado K reels (7 speeds), Sufix 832 50lb Chartreuse braid, Decoy -Texas Lock Punch Stops, Picasso Slick Core Tungsten Weights, Trokar Monster Flipping Hook 4/0 & 5/0 (TK-135), Berkley Pit Boss 4”, Berkley Rocket Craw 4”, and a Yum Bad Mamma 4.25”. Take what you will from my data, but it was hard work to collect and I believe it’s enough of a sample size to determine the Snell knot significantly decreases hook to land ratios when compared with a Double Palomar. Also, there’s no doubt that the heavier weights land fewer fish, so use as light of a weight as you possibly can.

I love watching yalls videos. They are the bomb

The snell is a great idea in theory. Gonna have to try it. I especially like the idea of tungsten not hitting the knot over and over.

65 pound braid Palomar and 1 1/2 ounce weight never had a problem

That was a good example 👏

Thank you 🙏. This just explained to me what I have been doing wrong all these years, I have watched a ton of Videos and many pros, but by far the best tutorial video I have seen, thank you 🙏😁😎🎣🎣🎣👌👍👍👍👍👍

Nice thanks!

Just got my first bait box today pretty stoked on the selection. Definitely excited to try the new baits 👍

Excellent video. It’s really helpful

Thanks for the tips!!!

First cast 🤘🏽

90% of the time I end up throwing a pegged texas rig in heavy cover. Never tried the snail knot usually stick to the palmar knot with plenty of success but Ill definitely try to the snail knot and see if I have more success!

More tips = better

What year is that Durango in the back ground..?! I have one that the same Generation, and it's a 1998 Durango 4x4 SLT. It was made the same year I graduated! Love my Durango!! And thanks for the Flipping tips!!

Could you do a flipping video of cattails

Did that first fish eat the bandito bug?

great tips man!

Says you wanna use a thick bait but uses a googan that tears easier than anything I've ever used

What size flipping hook was that?

Great video

It tears baits up.so what better to use them a bait that tears easy as hell 😂

I like this dood 👌

Check out this amazing instructional video on trolling and catching BIG PANFISH

Did that first fsh eat the plastic bait?

That was legit dude!

Bandito bug Texas rugged best weed cover bait

Would a regular Texas rig hook work for this???

What should I purchase to create this setup?

Ok, how much did you pay that first bass to bite?

I got flipped off a few times in the video. ;) jk. haha. good tips! The last tip is awesome. I used that for the past few years now. Got the idea from BigBassDream in one of his videos. I'm lazy though so I dont color my yellow line. it's still effective though. still getting the same hook up as the next guy.

i use a 1/12 ounce egg sinker

"Perfect release" As the bass swallows his plastic lure lol

Literally not first cast

What was that rod he was using

About broke that Pole on that first catch lol.

Dude I love punching.

No offset hook?

Y’all should do a mtb box giveaway

3:40 That lure is completely gone and most likely in the stomach of that Bass, and will potentially cause a slow and painful death. All because this doinker wanted a couple second dopamine hit. You're selfish and ignorant if you're a person who's willing to kill any animal in the name of you having a couple seconds of feeling good. Either use artificial lures that can't be easily swallowed, or use natural lures. Or, just don't fish if you can't fish ethnically and respectfully.

Can I have a mystery tacklebox from you yes or no.

DECAF please

Never had a problem catching fish with a swivel knot. Act like a robot. It doesn’t have to be all one way.

Okay but i just wanna know how to not get snagged in the 💩

That first bass was $3 😅
