We love your videos Tyler. I have a 9yr old son who has learned everything from you and your channel. It’s so rewarding seeing his passion. He picked up a rod 2 months ago for a fishing clinic here at our lake and he’s been on fire ever since. I just had to say thank you for these videos. Your knowledge, advice, personality and experience is so refreshing. I had no idea how much fun fishing would be. These past 2 months have been such a neat bonding time with him…..and knowing that he’s probably watched everyone of your videos and now I’m watching and learning. Any chance I could ask for an autograph for him? Any time your in Missouri come fish here at our two lakes here in Lake St. Louis.
There's only 3 colors I buy to catch bass. White, black/blue, and green pumpkin. They haven't failed me yet, but I just bank fish where I can throw a lure in.
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.
I'm telling ya that black with blue flake senko works good on Tuesdays and Thursdays. But the June bug works on the rest of the days EXCEPT unless if it's of coarse the 2nd Thursday of the month you'll want that purple with black flake. 🤣
Bro that was the best intro to a fishing video I've ever seen. You did a great job and had me laughing. It just made me want to watch the entire video. Love your content it's very informative!
Iva had a lot of luck with orange lures due to a high amount of perch up where i go...its all about your body of water and your fish, great video and great guide, super helpful!
tacticalbassin mentioned this before in a jig video and it hit home. i simplified my jig box down to gp, black & blue, pb&j and white variations. then i keep a couple odd and end colors. ive always been this way with my plastics though. black, white, gp, purple, watermelon red and clear. ive never felt like i didnt have a color covered even when simplified down that much
9:54 wavelengths! Certain shorter color wavelengths can’t penetrate water that well. Yellow, red, and orange can’t penetrate as far as blue, or violet. If you scuba dive, you can see it really well that you can find an item on the bottom that becomes a completely different color when you bring it up
Case in point. He’s catching bass with the finesse worm, creature bait, and a spinner in the video. I do think bait color, shape, and presentation matter, but when the fish are biting, they’ll eat almost anything as long as it’s “close enough” what they like to eat.
I had a great day out on a clear lake in my belly boat! Im up in Canada 🇨🇦 i was using the drop shot with a 3.5 inch black leach and a 4.5 roboworm morning dawn and i was catchin everything from pumpkinseeds to a small 18inch pike! 🤘🏻they were also hitting topwater bunch of different styles from buzzbait to cricket wake bait!!
Hi, loved the vid! It was fun to see 2 pros have quality arguments. Learned a lot, while having fun! Ohh and tried bass fishing with senkos, ohh maan what a slow booring method😀. I am used to rip that jerbaik on the surface with full speed for an asp to jerk the rod outa your hands🙃. I am from eu so that is why.....
Tyler I agree with this video. I have also heard during high pressure or late summer you need to throw something different, something others aren't. Is that where you try different flake to your green pumpkin, blues, black?
Caught my pb today in a small community pond on a robo-worm. Weightless texas rigged and snagged about 7 other smaller bass with the same worm. My new confidence throw, i was on wacky pumpkin and many other lures getting skunked last 3 days.
I have green pumpkin yamasenkos and bandito bugs. I use black and blue bandito bugs. I have PB&J worms for ned rigs and texas rig. Then i have 5 of diamond spoon, red devel, fire tiger, silver and gold. So far ive gotten fat smallies and pickerel. I agree that keeping the numbers low on colors helps streamline your arsenal. Another thing is you have to take into account thats sometimes, youll have a slow day with few bites.
Great video very informative. The only thing I’d add is having confidence in the color you’re throwing. If you don’t have confidence in what you’re throwing it’s probably not going to work as well as a color you DO have confidence in
Soft plastics l keep four basic colors with variations...black, green, purple and red. Yesterday I landed two nice bass in low visibility water throwing a ZOOM Speed worm, black with red glitter.
bro thank you! exactly right. I have about 20 variations of green pumpkin plastics lol. if I’m going with green pumpkin, I’ll just pick a random one and go 👌🏼😎🎣
Tyler, I just came across your channel and subscribed! Amazing content! I do most all of my fishing from the seat of my kayak and recently started getting my grandson started in the sport. Young kids don't have much patience though. Anyways, I wanted say job well done with all of the information that you provide your viewers. I wish I would have found the channel long time ago. Keep up the great work!
Bird blue skies ... green pumpkin, red hook. Overcast skies ... green pumpkin, black hook. ..... sunrise and sunset, black purple or green pumpkin purple
What are your thoughts on some of the old school colors like Pumpkin Seed & Motor Oil? I know Pumpkin Seed was the forerunner to Green Pumpkin......and it looks similar to the Sungill color you showed. You seem VERY well versed in the ongoing "Battle of Colors" which is honestly targeted at fishermen...not fish....since you know....fish dont buy baits lmao. I'd appreciate your take on the old school colors though.
Three top colors in my opinion is are white black red. If I had to fish with only one color white. I’ve caught more fish on white than any other color.
As a new angler I have been trying different colors and I find this advice to be so true. I have narrowed my soft plastics down to just a few different colors now. I do have one question, when do you use White instead of something like Black?
I had some serious doubts that the fish could see all these colors. And changed all my colors to natural playing on the idea that I'm just trying to imitate it's natural food. Thank you for helping me ! God bless and keep up the amazing work!
Tyler thank you for making it so dang easy for us. I bet lots of hard work gets put into this it's almost impossible not to learn anything from your videos. just wunna say thank you my friend. Your the man!
To me their is 5 colors that matter. White Black Green Red Silver. If I could choose one color it would be white. I’m told bass have dichromatic vision they see in red and greens. White is proven to be the highest visible color black for the contrast and silver for light refraction.
Me over here throwing blatant pink bubblegum and catching tons of fish on it, day after day. I've never noticed color to make any difference. White, chartreuse, black, blue, pink, green, purple, brown, green, orange, combo colors. I can pretty much pick any color at random on any day and it works.
Awesome tip video bro and you just made it easy for my to choose my colors but if you can bro I been crushing it with the fluke even tho it’s not the clear water how everyone say I guess it that slow fall and they can see it more and I twitch it but when I do I use a 6 inch and they crush it they always got for the head first but if you can make a tip video you will make me a master at fluke fishing because no cap all the tips you gave they actually work but great tip video Tyler keep it up 💯🤙
I found your comment about a local body of water having specific baitfish and therefore leading to the use of specific colours interesting. But for me it's kind of the opposite. Where I am in Canada we don't have bluegill or crawdads so I ignore all lures in those colours... I think that's the right thing to do. Right?
Even though this was an awesome video what I do in terms of choosing a lure color I either go with something that matches or closely matches the real thing or watermelon red or watermelon red flake or I'll be like oh that's an interesting looking color 😅
Love it. Probably 98% of my soft and hard baits fall into these categories. I’m curious - how would you classify the urban ponds with the deep teal died water? Surely that’s gotta impact color rendition and visibility. Just treat it like dirty water?
