@lucasdarnell949 2 года назад

Ziploc full of plastics thrown in a drawer is all you need

@joshholt1513 3 года назад

It's a give and take with soft plastic. The more durable the plastic usually the less action it has. Also the softer baits like the keitechs maintain good action in colder water.

@Shurmash 2 года назад

That durability issue is by design. Keeps you buying their product over and over again which makes them douchebags in my opinion. Make a quality product like Z-man.

@brandongesch4497 2 года назад

@@Shurmash you are correct that the durability issues are by design. However, not in the way you're suggesting. Ask any pro tournament angler and every one of them prefer a "softer" soft plastic. Not only does a softer plastic create a more realistic motion, but a bass is going to hold onto it longer. I am fine replacing a soft plastic after every single fish as long as I'm catching more fish. Every fish caught is worth it. I just won a tournament on Googan Slim Shake worms... I went through 3 packs of them. Totally worth it. 😁

I love my speed bags too but have you had any problem with the side of the bag bubbling out if some juice leaks out of a package? All of mine are getting bubbly on the sides. Something’s leaking lol. And I love all the Googan baits with one exception. Hate the rattlin’ Ned. I feel like a Ned bait needs 2 things. Buoyancy and durability. That rattlin’ Ned lacks both. The rattle is cool, but needs the other 2 characteristics for me to choose it over Sukoshi Bug or Z-Man.

@amals51 3 года назад

I have said the same thing to myself about the durability of both baits, yammys and Googans. The durability is terrible but the catchability is fantastic! I also believe you are spot on about why the baits get so much hate, it’s because people dislike the Googans for whatever reason. But you really can’t hate on a group that had been able to create a market for themselves in this industry. There has been some talk about some shady stuff going on with intellectual property theft by the Googans, that could be what’s sone of it comes from?? But all that crap aside, they’ve done well for themselves and no one take that away from them. Tight lines!

My googan catches a lot of fish this year

@krimsonshadow94 2 месяца назад

For me, I think plastics are cool but I tend to lean more on the hard baits. Yeah depending on the brand it could run ya 8 bucks or more but if you mind your line you can keep lures for years. Ill really only throw plastic out if the fish are being picky and ive gone through all my main hard lures, its always good to keep options in your backpack

@thesonorandesertangler 2 года назад

Some folks need cheaper baits like Zoom or Yum. I like a little bit of everything. I use Yum and Zoom too, but I like Biospawn, Zman, Big Bite Baits, Eurotackle's EPF swim, all the Mule Fishing baits, and Googan baits. Specifically the rattling ned, slim shake, and the drag'n'drop. I have other baits that do the same thing and are more durable. I still like to have them as an option, because they work really well for me.

I fish whatever is on sale I still catch fish on everything you just mentioned. How many times Bass didn't want a senko .I put on a bio-spawn exostick that's what the bass ate all day. If you guys and gals listen to Jim he is always the voice of reason.Thanks brother ☮😎

@emerytwyman5951 3 года назад

I honestly prefer softer plastics like keitech and Yamamoto, not just better action but I feel like they move on the hook much better when setting the hook. Always get a hook in the fish

I fish in a Hobie PA 14 so I tend to bring 1 canvas bag that holds (4) 3700s and a large freezer plastic bag full of odds and ends. I take 3 - 6 Rods now. I really use to like the Googan Squad. I have not bought one of their products because I think that they have let fame go to their heads. Nothing against them or their baits, I am sure they are awesome, they taught me how to fish and I am grateful. But I like to think that I have or can make everything I need and don't need to buy into their stuff anymore. How can you manage to take Soo much tackle and lures to lake? There was a time that all I would take is one 3500 box on a Caddis or bank fishing because it confused me to have a lot of my stuff with me. I have an office in my house dedicated to fishing. I make my own lures, so I have Sooooooo many lures and baits. I have my favorite brands and started off with LTB and MTB for a year, which taught me a lot. So I have a Bin for each bait, worms, Tubes, Square Bills, Deep Dives, Crank Baits, Swim Baits with Paddle Tail, Swim Baits with normal tail, Jointed baits, Jigs, Finesse Jigs....So many times I have only taken 7 baits and lures to the pond and worked them all day. That is how I found out how to fish my lures and baits like an Expert. Now, I can tell you anything about any lure...Color, time of day, weather, lines, Red markings, depth, techniques...I have been working on creating a Rig for my State. The Nebraska Rig...still testing the technique. Lol I really like the design of those bags that hold your Googan & KVD plastics, but why take so many plastics? I also like the New Plano Jig, Spinner and Bass Mafia storage containers. But they look like they would be really heavy after 30 - 40 lures and cumbersome. You tell me, I have never filled them, put them in the truck transported theme and added to a boat or kayak, took them out of boat, in truck, in house. Seems like too much work, a lot of trips. How man lures can you use in a day? How many techniques can you use in a day? All rhetorical questions, well mostly? Thank You for your Reviews. I listened intensely today as I built 6 Umbrella Rigs today. 4 Finesse A Rigs and 2 Tank A Rigs. Planning on making about 10 more different sizes and weights and it dawned on me today, that I have Never heard anyone use Worms on A Rigs. Why wouldn't that work? LoL You know I have to Try...Hahahaha And small Frogs. Ha

@BT-xm4cq 3 года назад

TJ you are spot on I for 1 will not use a Googan anything cause I dont like the Googans as for the sinkos I use the Bass Pro shop brand along with the Yum baits manly due to they are tough they dont rip as easy also the cost I will not pay 8.00$ for any plastic bait that may sound cheap but down south here these fish are bait wreckers lol great vid.
