Here is a video about the single concept that changed everything for me: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9nrcG1UU1Vs.html Enjoy your time on the water and have a wonderful day!
The second kind shown, really shines with a small splitshot about 6-12” in front of it. Ends up behaving more like the first type shown. I was using it last weekend and caught a 6.05lb PB. Fished a bank right behind two other bass boats that were beating it with moving baits. I scooted over in my kayak and just worked the area slow.
Another video right on point Steve, thanks! My floating worm game jumped to another level once I started using the barrel swivel. I keep this rig tied on year round with my best success using Magnum sized trick style worms On a spinning combo. Nothing less than 7", and often vibrant colors. They seem to take water clarity out of the equation. Also, I find the bigger worms skip beautifully, and improve my accuracy. Another great subject covered. Always look forward to your videos. So much to learn
Thank you! There are a lot better anglers than me out there. Lol. But I try to share what I have learned and what I discover each time out. That is the great thing about fishing - we are always learning and trying new things. Thanks so much for watching!
the spongy type floating worms are sold at bass pro shops. they are called ( floating worms). you can still get. them they are also under the bass pro name of baits
@@SteveRogersOutdoors Mr. Rogers, Thank you so much. You have done a lot for me this summer. I owe my success, as well as my revived passion for fishing, I owe both to you.
Thank you. I have used 20 pound braid on all my reels with a 24 pound fluoro leader. I see that you and all the other pro's use a light leader. I am very scared it will brake. I use the gt knot to tie the braid and fluoro but will use yours for sure. Thank you for the quick response.
Steve, can you advise us on using braid. I started using braid on spinning combos and now i use it even on my casting rods. I am just not sure if it is always the best option. Should my leader be stronger or weaker strenght than the braid. Thanks again for awesome tips. Tight lines!
I have braid spooled up on 90% of my reels, both casting and spinning. I do use a leader on them most of the time because I fish a lot of clear water. I use the Red Phillips knot to go from the braid to fluoro leader. My leader is usually less pound test than the mainline. For example, on my casting rods I have 50lb braid mainline and then often use a 10 or 12lb fluoro leader. The spinning rods is usually a 6-10lb fluoro leader and a 20lb braid mainline. The only time I go straight braid to the lure is when the water is really dirty. The reels I have no braid on and use straight fluoro are my crankbait and jerkbait rods. I really like the braid because it casts so easy and I can swap out the pound test leader real quick instead of respooling.
