My New Favorite Fishing Lure! 

Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, ru-vid.comUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.

Northland's propeller jig is the GOAT for Pickerel. Great company.

That looks exactly like an old lure called a Vibrotail by Blue Fox. I got one when they came out in chartreuse and loved it.

Yessir I like that mustache

Hey is that Shakespeare micro series rod ? I’m thinking of buying one for panfish .

I own three of those there the best

This is the biggest fish I’ve ever caught, help Ricky Help,help,help-Fishbrain

Thanks for having videos I can sit and watch with my kids. No bad language just fishing. We love the underwater views.

Wait, did you say “Crud Muffins”? Take it easy Andrew Dice Clay. 😉 Love the underwater footage man.

Please never stop uploading, no one makes videos like yours

I've had other BPM baits ru-vid.comUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 before and they've pretty much always came through for me with the suskie smallies here and even with the walleye and pike, but I realized I didn't have an "in-between" pattern so this junebug one fills that role in no problem. it pairs up magnificently with a junebug Zoom Z-craw Jr that was trimmed a couple millimeters before the hook slots and rigged sideways for that fatter panfish side profile while still being a nice'n'compact presentation, a real power-finesse bait. Hell, it was so pretty I even bothered to fotosketch the pic into a watercolor painting image just to show you it's beauty! Even the blades are really well made, sure, they're not of Hildebrandt-level exquisiteness but look at the bead's reflection on the colorado blade, definitely well-made! The only "problem" spot it had was a bald spot in the skirt but it was nothing that I couldn't easily fix with a but of tuggin'n'shiftin' with the strands for a couple of seconds, besides that it is pretty minty!

I've been using the perch pattern for 1.5yrs and have caught 13in crappie, 20in walleye and small n largemouth bass...great little baits...not very tough though. Body rips easy. Be awesome if zman made some with elaztec..

Hey Brendan I'm going to lake Erie on a charter for walleye on Saturday I'm soo excited

9 years later man became a fishing legend

Mimic minnows are my go-to for crappie, walleye and perch fishing. I can catch 20+ fish in an hour and floats near the bottom to avoid snags. Definitely my favorite lure (especially the 1/8 wonder bread or silver shiner)

very underrated fishing channel ! been watching for years love them man keep up the good work !

Try the Storm Wildeye shad and the Berkley swim shad 🤘🏻 love em!

Nice! I've always had success downsizing here in MA for early Spring fish. The bites more subtle and they don't seem to be in the mood to chase big lures

Mimic minnow has been one of my go to lures. Started throwing it last year and caught some pike on it up to 45” and some very large bass.

Thanks for letting us know you don’t like chicks at all 😉😅😂

What type of rod and line can you use for this lure ? Can you use braided line with it?

"keep my secret fishing lure out you're FN mouth!"

Northland Tackle as a whole is usually underrated, at least outside of the Great Lakes region.

Great video! I subbed and plan on ordering a few Mimic Minnows now. Good stuff 🤙

You've found your calling! Excellent communicator/speaking skills and your comfortable in your own skin - and you truly enjoy fishing! Great job from beginning to the end! I'll have to try out a few of those baits.

You should try the mimic minnow with the betts spin, northland also makes a kit with the spinner arms but I'm not sure what sizes they come in and if they come that small where as the betts spin arms are perfect for the 1/32nd I use crappie and trout magnets on them all the time and have a pack of the larger mimic minnows that came with the spinner arms

Why dose the lure on the thumbnail look so much cooler than the one in the video

this is a really well made video. I've really enjoyed watching your editing and cinematography development

This lure has been in my box most my life haha definitely worth having and a couple different sizes

I’ve been using these for years the mimic minnow is by far my favorite crappie bait and they last forever very durable baits with great action

Been using those for a long time. One of my favorite baits as well. The bigger ones are great for walleye and some nice muskies.

Those are my buddies go to lure. I always thought they were one of those lures that caught more fisherman than fish, but apparently they work.

Anyone else feel like this dude has a new favorite lure every week?😂 someone isn't interested in ridge wallet anymore.

🔴 THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT COMMENT!!! PLEASE READ THIS BRENDAN. 🔴 I got a comment on my most recent video saying it was you. Please look at it and confirm if it is real. I do not want anybody acting like you. Thank you.

I use exactly these baits in various sizes, amazing action on them! Catch 30inch + Pike on those guys.

My new goal is to master soft plastics and jigs. I just cant give up my spoons and crankbaits though. Especially my Rapalas! I'm just on a soft plastic budget these days after filling the tank on the boat. I'll definitely give the mimic minnow a shot when things get tough! Looks nice and small for finicky fish.

We caught over 70 Bass last evening at my 3 plus acre farm pond. Little your thinking I’m sure. Nope. The biggest which is nothing really special was 20 inches and 4.6 pounds we caught may be eight in the 18 inch range and the rust in the 10 to 12 there was three of us myself my stockbroker and his son full moon, and a great evening in Mid Missouri

Brendan, The problem is we have to many Lures. We forget, or simply don't take the Time to use these Great Little lures, which probably badly out fish, most of what we use.

pop a little golden spinner on them and everything will hit them; one of my top pike lures as well as a nice crappie lure

This man sounds like my grandfather, "crud muffins", "what the sam", "oh my word" im just making jokes but seriously

God is good

Awesome video great energy ✌️✌️😎😎💯 Well done video sir

Oh, great I just spent all my money for Minnie mite jigs, dang it. Brendan, can I borrow one of your mimic minnows so I can catch some fish? Ha ha. Enjoy your videos, thanks.

Man isn't fishing he's CATCHING. and at an unstocked public stream.

Good afternoon greetings from Indonesia, the Aru Islands, Maluku Province

Where do you live man? I've gotta move somewhere with freshwater spots like those you fish. The area where I live has nothing like this. Looks amazing and thanks for the videos.

glade i found a legit fisherman youtuber legit info legit fishing, no private ponds full of PBs like fake YT fishermen!

Nice smally ! I’d like to see another “exploring new waters “ video.

Hey Brendan or anyone I have 2 questions how do you cast further with a smaller lure or a lightweight lure. Second question is how can you tell the difference between a small mouth and a large mouth

Awesome ultralight rod I have 3 of them Shakespeare makes it and I only paid $20 for each

I have a local store with that lure and I was tempted to get it now I’m deciding to get it thank a lot🤩

nice..im trying to fish like micro,what size is your gear?like your reel,line and lure?thanks..

You're like the "Good Eats" fisherman's edition. Very informative.

That's not a damn, it's a weir, be incredibly careful around that thing man, those kill people all the time.

He needa stop fighting these small fish like hell just to drop em 2 seconds after like they’re nothing cuz he’s just gonna break one day

Besides the great camera work, let's all take a moment to appreciate that Brendan doesn't take the Lord's name in vain: "Oh my word"

Where I live in ohio we have a shitty shallow river that runs threw our town. But man does it hold some giant and I mean giant smallies. I mean like 5 and 6 pounders. It has some deep holes but most the time there in the shallows holes by rocks in the current

What pound test are u using in this video I know its old video

This computer nerd looking getting more fish than I!

mimic minnows get some trash for being a walmart regular, i think, but they're not bad by any means.

I’ve put one of the 1/32 sized ones on a beetle spin spinner and even if I don’t get the hook set I’ll almost always get a strike

Try them with a Colorado blade... Killer lure Toronto Mike

Wait, what? Aren’t you supposed to fall over at least twice in your videos?

I just got the mimic minnow kit, both gamefish and panfish. I can’t wait to use em!

“Crud muffins that’s big” lmaooo, love the vids man

I have a few of these in my tackle bag, just don't know how to use it. Can anyone let me in on how to fish this lure?

For creek fishing is it better so walk up current or down current?? I need to know 😭😭😂

Can you do a little piece of heaven the live version from live in lbc? 🥺🙏

Are you still using the same rod? I have exactly same one!!

I get mine at Bass Pro Shop, they are about $1.50 each.

what rod & reel comboa are you using? what pound line?

As for the first one, the spoon. Try it without a trailer on it. Spoons are for reaction bite. Not food.

I got a bunch of these but mine don't wiggle like yours

Thanks for the underwater footage 😍

I’m so glad to see someone who knows the fish they catch. I’ve seen plenty of other big fishing channels, I’m looking at you 1rod1reel and googan squad goons, that don’t know the fish they catch if it isn’t a bass.

I actually got that lure and was pulling bass a crappie almost every cast

like the video, i found that if y0u tie a short leader of fluorocarbon on , you will get the bigger lure shy fish to hit

haha, the other day I went by those 2 bridges and found your spot! gonna have to fish there

I caught a 4 pound smallie on one of those before, great fish

C’est le spot qui est extrêmement bon pas le leurre C’est un refuge! Mais je vais quand même essayer le leurre

Not going to this this bait is absolutely my least favorite bait of all time

I bought that exact lure in the thumbnail but haven't tried it yet.

Good bait but I couldnt get anything to bite in chartreuse.

When did Josh Weissman start making fishing videos?

Why don't you ever target big fish?

What type of fishing gear are you using....

He sounds like the voice u make when u hold your nose

how many times did he say OH MY WORD

I like that bait in the cover photo too. I use a different head where I fish. a lighter ball shape head. Eitger black w/ yellow eyes, or fluorescent orange.

What is your ultimate fishing lure??????

caught my PB on the one in the thumbnail!!!

You said cruddmuffins. Liked and subbed

Liked, saved, and subscribed, awesome

The yellow/orange one Looks like some old “gremlins” that i had, only lure id always get bites on. Got them from an old tackle box and have never found them in a store 😂

Crud muffins should be a t-shirt

I wanna know more about those pliers! 00:31

Real nice video. Love using small swimbaits they just work. FLC

why did he blur out part of the picture?

What lake are you fishing?

OOH OOH YEAH CONGRATULATIONS MY BROTHER
