The Free Rig DOMINATES In These Situations. Let me show you when, how and why the Free Rig is an amazing bait for picking apart cover and certain structure. Especially when the bass are being finicky. When rigged correctly you can keep this bait in one positions for long amounts of time.

Thank you. I've had success with it but it's been with finicky bass around tall cover or structure. Park it and make it jump to the bottom and slow rise up.

Another great technique Hank,and I always feel better when I have the same rig and baits as you. I been using the Zaza worm for a few years now along with other Nikko baits, and I use the angler free rig weights in 1/2 and 3/8 and even 1/4 but I rarely fish over 20’ in our lakes around Raleigh area. Love my TFO rods and glad you’re on the Resolve line, TFO is a great company and I first started using them 9 years ago for my fly rods ( I’ve got 4 TFO fly rods now) . Glad to see your growth and success and I hope you have a outstanding fall fishing season 😜🍀🎣🍀👊

@williamfedor8706 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing on Nikko products. Surprisingly zman baits will not float up with this rig. I love zman baits. They are buoyant but not enough to float up with even a light wire hook using this rig. I would like to know of other baits that are buoyant enough to work with this rig the way you fish it (without dragging).

@BassGeek 8 месяцев назад

Wow I thought they would good info

@williamfedor8706 8 месяцев назад

@@BassGeek update: I have tested more Zman baits. ( tested weather they would float with free rig) I found that most of them float but a few ( Ned and large 4” Ned baits) do not. Same exact packaging. The colors that would not float are green pumpkin, Golby Bryant and 4” P&J.

@joestrummer9507 6 месяцев назад

I find that my hook up percentage just plain sucks with that elaztech stuff. It sticks to the hook shaft and point too much and it doesn't sink good.

@BassGeek 6 месяцев назад

I like bigger hooks on this type of material. Now with the Free rig you want it to float.

@kennethfilas7979 Месяц назад

How well does this work in current?

@BassGeek Месяц назад

It will lay over

@grandwonder5858 5 месяцев назад

So I guess this rig works best with lures that float?

@BassGeek 5 месяцев назад

It does in my opinion but you can use it with others the fall will change up.

@LowBrowFishing 8 месяцев назад

#100percentwatchsquad I've never used a free rig, but I know a couple guys who do use it quite often. I was thinking of using a drop shot the next time I take the Bass Buggy, but I might switch that up to a free rigl

@arthurdirindinjr1792 8 месяцев назад

Great rig and great how to use explanation My only problem and this strictly me PERSONALLY saying so with all the guys putting out fishing content on YT is cost. Fishing soft plastics has been my A#1 go to method for fishing since the mid 1980's Caught 90% of all my largemouth over 7lbs and my PBLM of 9lbs 11oz on a Texas rigged curly tail worm I have always bought the most sensitive rod I could afford to fish soft plastics And that can not go over price ceiling is $130 I also have been fishing for salmon and steelhead in streams near my home since the late 1980's and bass gear is useless for creek fishing salmon and steelhead and good quality rods and reels for salmon and steelhead are absolute must have items and affordable spinning reels are very unlikely to survive a single season creek fishing for salmon and steelhead and cost you both grief and more than a few fish in the process My two sons are also fish all the time now both with me and thier friends and they also need their own fishing equipment My point being as much as I would absolutely love to have a $300 rod and reel set up for each style of fishing from soft plastics to a finess setup to a dedicated crankbait setup to a dedicated frog setup and a dedicated spinnerbait and chatter bait setup I absolutely can not afford to do so So I try as best as I can to buy rods and reels that can pull double duty for bass fishing as my salmon and steelhead rods and reels are reserved strictly for that. I do take care to use the proper line for tge correct application and that does help

@BassGeek 8 месяцев назад

That I totally get. Trust me I give my recommendations on rod and reel but by NO means am I saying have this rod for only this rig. This rig can be amused for sooooooo many different things. From casting jigs to spinnerbaits to Texas rigs etc. I’m just giving that recommendation to help people out and know where to start
