My favorite thing about this video Wheels is how real you are, you mention companies youre not sponsored by. I watch several other Pros when they do these monthly style bait videos and they all only mention companies they are sponsored by. You the man!

@nflisrigged1395 5 месяцев назад

Good point

@SuperCasterFishing 5 месяцев назад

I like how you broke everything down and gave examples and the goods is a awsome bonus!!! Keep up the good work brother!!!

@DH30river 5 месяцев назад

Hey what's up, new to the channel. I'm going re-watch this video tomorrow, but I appreciate all of the bait suggestions. I've moved to VA from CA and just now getting into the VA fishing scene, so it all helps. I've always been a top water/crank bait guy but looking forward to learning more of the plastic/swimbait side of fishing out here

@markkendrick01 5 месяцев назад

Ya'll, that 2nd palomar knot was the absolute fastest I have ever seen someone tie! LOL Insane fast 😆 Great Video!!!

@DemetriSchaefer-ew7ot 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Jacob!! A northerner here from the mid Wisconsin area and when everything else fails we break them flipping jigs (swim jigs) and beavers out! In the summer that is, thanks a lot for the video I love learning new things and the tying tip is a big plus, love it! never new that would make a big difference in hooksets… got a tournament to fish Sunday up here, hoping to find them! Best of wishes to you next week as well! Great content and looking forward to seeing more!!

@Jason_Hall 5 месяцев назад

Here til the end, and never thought about clicking away. Your personality and ability to share your knowledge is a captivating combo. I just bought a couple madrafts and the tuning tip will definitely help. I also really appreciate you sharing the rod/reel/line for each bait. Have a great day!

@chrisfoley3320 5 месяцев назад

It's easy to see that you have a passion for fishing that is next level, so do I. This passion is what drives us to be the best we can be. I could listen to you all day. Thanks for taking the time for us.

@ronfarmer1419 5 месяцев назад

Enjoy watching you fish and giving great advice on the CrushCity Baits. Good luck on Dale Hollow I think you are going to enjoy the smallmouth fishing under the every fish counts rule. Looks like a great year ahead.

@jimwarncke3787 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Jacob. That was a great learning video. You went in depth with the bait and your set up too. I very much like the way you used the lake maps to give examples of where to fish them. You went from faster moving baits to try to locate the bass, to pitching right to the beds. I'm sure everyone has learned a little something from this video. Good luck with all your tournaments and be safe on your travels.

@martinwolf9366 5 месяцев назад

Just finished the vid! My favorite thing was definitely your little tip about tying the Palomar knot right. I will definitely make sure I’m doing that all the time now! Awesome watching your videos and learning from the best in the sport.

@Playaj711 5 месяцев назад

Great tips on the glides, and I knew there would be a stick worm coming down the pike.Favorite tip was the way to face hook when tying on for flipping.Never knew that never heard anyone say it mattered.

@Choffa09 5 месяцев назад

Two nice tips were the Palomar knot and flipping. Also the magdraft straightening. Thanks!

@michaelmiller8584 5 месяцев назад

Always look to you for advice and pointers.Going to Watts Bar this week. I caught my personal best at Lake George using advice about fishing in Florida. She weighed 8lbs. 12 oz.. Always pull for you and love your enthusiasm. Good luck

@MarkBarb 5 месяцев назад

I watched the entire video as I do for every video that you put out and , you are the real deal , just the game about the flipping hooks and the bed fishing and not using a bopper stopper,, there was plenty of more game and I also wanted to thank you because my hook up ratio has definitely came up and definitely catching way more fish by just listening to you and if I could ask one favor and that's to never change from the way you are

@theonearmedbandit8631 5 месяцев назад

Would be awesome if you would make a vid on how to break down a lake spring summer fall upper end lower end etc. great vids Jacob!

@rdaniel3451 5 месяцев назад

I watched until the end; I enjoy all the content, but really enjoy the real experiences you’ve had and the map tips… the bed fish story was awesome 👏

@MrJamesarcher 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate the insight regarding where to look for fish paired with the mapping. Awesome video

@jvfishingfever 5 месяцев назад

Jacob, thank you for sharing your April picks, how you use them, where you use them and what gear you use! I'm a weekend warrior and really appreciate these tips!

@caseysaunders2137 5 месяцев назад

Thank you. Stuck it out to end so leaving a comment. I was pleasantly surprised that most of what you have tied on is also tied onto my rods right now. That gives me a little more confidence. One thing I'm doing different this year is running 15 lb on most of my bait cast rigs instead of heavier line. I believe it helps with casting distance and is generally less prone to those mystery line twist knots. I'm using 10 lb on my 6"8" med fast spin cast rig and also have a weightless senko hook on it. Great tips. Thanks again.

@ryanmckay3856 5 месяцев назад

My fav thing about this vid is the plug and play aspect. I know it’s marketing but it’s easy to be overwhelmed at places and it i can make a couple notes on specific things to get it helps big time!

@michaelbroussard7404 5 месяцев назад

I love how you break down the bait and explain on map where you are throwing it

@Bass_Chaser22 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for all that you do! Favorite part is the fact you’re open and honest about all baits and not just sponsored ones.

@DFWdarin 5 месяцев назад

I like the advice on just a straight crawl for a bed fish. I'm using a straight crawl profile with just a EWG jig head and a black crawl and it's done really well for me this spring so far. See I just hearing that simplicity and you actually saying something I know is true is pretty awesome to me so yeah I like watching all your videos to the end.

@johnpodolak5958 5 месяцев назад

Hey Jacob! Watched the whole video, been following you and the “ding” group for years, you all are informative and entertaining 🎣 Betting that you have many favorites that you don’t share because of the loyalty owed to your sponsors, but that’s the nature of the business. Still love the new products you’ve come up with! I’ve been crushing them on top water in April, that’s one that I think you left out. Thanks for the quality content 🎣🎣🎣

@theonearmedbandit8631 5 месяцев назад

Best vid I’ve ever seen! The way you explain where on the lake kept me interested 100%!!

@travistullos2566 5 месяцев назад

32 years living on Caney Lake, Zoom Gunmetal Wacky rig is legit this time of year! I have yet to try the crossover ring, I'm still using the o-rings. But taking it back old school, my all time favorite bed fishing worm is a Culprit Fire & Ice. Something about that flash the bass can't stand. Keep grinding Wheeler...you da man.

@dennishodson990 5 месяцев назад

Jacob, you are the best informative angler of ALL! No B.S. and right to the point with some of the best tips I have heard lately. Keep it up. I'll definitely be watching everything you put out!!

@christopherdow-id8mo 5 месяцев назад

Definitely some goods JW! Appreciate all of your content. What a privilege to be able learn from the best!

@LarryPage72905 5 месяцев назад

Yes watched until the end. Great video and thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.

@delhamilton5043 5 месяцев назад

my favorite, was you breaking everything down so simple. I Seriously only been fishing for just "Bass" for 3 years. Its all Great Stuff!!! Stay Solid!!

@Lee-hi2yh 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate the instruction on various uses of the lures and how you use them. I also liked you showing where to start on the maps and what to look for steep banks etc.. Look forward to seeing your new worm hit the market, ... and I have been using the wacky worm collars for 2 seasons and quick change from wacky to neko without changing the worm and adding the noseweight. Works extremely well. TYVM

@adrianstoltzfus7941 5 месяцев назад

I love all the little nuggets you drop with the baits! Awesome video

@robertstephenson5687 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the information. My favorite is the wacky worm but struggle with wind a feel!

@carljones8676 5 месяцев назад

I watched the entire video. I like hearing not only the baits, but the why. What they imitate or why certain colors. Grew up in East Chattanooga. Go get em.

@chanbarber4517 5 месяцев назад

Yes great job! You are always very thorough with everything you teach. We don't get told things that do not work! Thank you.

@jonesf1301 5 месяцев назад

Great video, and very helpful in helping me understand I haven't been that far off base with bait and presentation selection in April.

@CopeyJ325 5 месяцев назад

Honestly every tip was put into a great perspective. But I am someone who fishes a highly pressured body of water where the fish do things way different compared to status quo across the country. Differences and special tips are super worth it. Thanks for the video! Didn’t even know it was 44 mins long because it was so helpful

@g-radm3827 5 месяцев назад

Much appreciated Jacob, learned a lot and I really liked the swimbait portion of your video- the hows, what, and where after talking about the baits itself (the Arashi, the Mayor, the Magdraft,) and the under spin( after bass spawns and the shad spawn begins). I’m a newbie to bass fishing , into it for a year now and caught 35 total so far (bank fishing), until I can get a kayak, God willing, then I can really go live.

@nickgentry1757 5 месяцев назад

Liked your segment on the Megabass inline swimmer. How it can produce when chatterbaits are being seen too much. Also had no idea they needed to be tuned. Keep posting great vids like this Jacob.

@johnclemons4026 5 месяцев назад

Jw definitely watched the whole video like always. Appreciate you taking the time to make them for all of us to learn something from you. Please keeping coming.👍👍👍

@michaels-hoooorahhhse5290 5 месяцев назад

In addition to being one of your supporters and enjoy watching you and the gang in the tournaments, the great advise and coaching you are giving us anglers is awesome. Thank you for doing this, as a new to Bass Fishing I am looking forward to using these tools and techniques. Thanks again, have a great day! Oh, last thing, I did watch to the very end (that is one of the reasons for this commen)

@aaronstetson7968 5 месяцев назад

My favorite thing about the video is the bed fishing tips.

@briancooper2948 5 месяцев назад

like the straight forward approach with your spin on what works for you - been a long time since you been on Geist or White River - keep producing excellent content

@EstebanMedina-i7z 5 месяцев назад

My name is Esteban Medina. I watched this entire video and let me say. Thank you for being so specific about each lure and equipment for that style of fishing. Very helpful stuff you spoke about. Especially with showing the map contours and where to use the lure. Thank you once again. Have a blessed day.

@rodneystewart7334 5 месяцев назад

Good info. I'm glad you mentioned tuning the Magdraft, I didn't know that trick.

@jamierice3189 5 месяцев назад

Really enjoyed this one.. love how you break down each bait and showed places on maps where to fish them.. watching the whole video was definitely worth it...

@tomfowler8389 5 месяцев назад

Excellent Jacob! I definitely did not know that you could tune the Magdraft I’ve had that same issue with it rolling. I’ve tuned plenty of crankbaits over the years but never even considered it for the magdraft. Thanks continued success!

@HORNABY4U 5 месяцев назад

Gave you a thumbs up and appreciate your willingness to share your skills with those of us less advanced.

@KeithBeard-dk3lr 5 месяцев назад

Hey Jacob.. watched from glide to wacky. All good stuff in between.. I appreciate the lake map and where to look for fish in April .. all the juice tips are awesome.. I liked the map locations to bait usage .. much appreciated!

@charlesmartin4386 5 месяцев назад

I love all your information I try all the advise you give out and most of the time it helps me catch more fish so keep putting out your opinions on the monthly baits and have a great weekend

@KyleThomas-hq1kn 5 месяцев назад

Great tips I never knew you had to tune a mag draft either! I love all the little tricks thanks!!

@rickdeluca8453 5 месяцев назад

Great video and always looking forward to your next one. I like the crossover saves a lot of worms.

@bronzebackbilly9034 5 месяцев назад

That Magdraft tip!! I had a love hate with those and should’ve knew to tune it like a crainkbait! Thanks

@briansenter4023 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate the transparency. Probably one of the main reasons you're a successful as you are! Tight lines Wheeler 🎣💪🏽

@patrickclark2794 5 месяцев назад

Thanks, Jacob! The 1-2 punch with the 2 craw colors was my favorite tip. Appreciate the videos!

@briandavis5414 5 месяцев назад

Jacob, great explanation of the baits and their purpose. I enjoy your videos because they help me to understand what I'm doing wrong...lol I'll get it right one day! Looking forward to seeing you at Dale Hollow. Thanks for the video.

@johnnyweaver1300 5 месяцев назад

I've always wondered about the way you tie a hook on if it mattered, now I know it does, the palmer knot is my favorite, green pumpkin magic is a great color, you definitely gave up some goods as always, you are the number 1 angler & most bass fisherman want to know,!👍🎣

@trevorstephens8604 5 месяцев назад

Always appreciate you breaking down everything. Best of luck to you this season!! Hoping to use some of these techniques my next trip out. Mainly bronco bug and magdraft

@johno7435 5 месяцев назад

Another great and informative video, Jacob! I’ve been using the cleanup craw since last month, and it’s been a game-changer. Unlike other craw baits, which either failed to attract bass or were too soft, your design proves to be remarkably durable. The claws withstand more than just one bass, which is a significant improvement. I’m also convinced the impregnated scent plays a crucial role in attracting bass-something I hadn’t experienced with other baits. Additionally, incorporating the VMC crossover ring into my wacky and Neko rigs, as you suggested, has genuinely enhanced my fishing technique. Highly recommend giving these techniques a try for anyone looking to up their fishing game!

@johno7435 5 месяцев назад

By the way, I did watch the whole video 😉

@dgroves85 5 месяцев назад

When the spinnerbait or chatterbait bite died at my old home lake my fishing buddy and I would switch to a Keitech swing impact fat on a VMC heavy duty weighted willow swimbait hook. We would chuck that thing out there as far as possible and then strip line and let it get to the bottom. Then slow roll it back to the boat keeping bottom contact. We would absolutely smash them on it! Works great in deeper water too. I would add a nail weight if needed. Here’s a little tip I’ll give that I liked to do with that VMC weighted willow bladed hook is take some snips and cut the wire off that the blade is attached to and then just connect it with two small split rings and a good barrel swivel. That brings the blade closer to the actual bait itself and there was less stuff for the blade to get hung up on. Usually it was just bottom gunk. We wrecked em on that!

@Jonnyfa1c0n 5 месяцев назад

Never gotten to do much bed fishing before so I really appreciated those tips, I actually caught my first bed fish yesterday on a green pumpkin cleanup craw so I am glad to know I was doing the right thing and definitely learned some new things to be even better

@JakeJordanFishing 5 месяцев назад

I really appreciate videos like this, man. For someone who recently discovered a passion for fishing, it’s awesome to be able to learn from professionals like you. I know I still have so much to learn, but I will definitely be trying some of these baits. It’s really hard to pick a favorite out of everything you mentioned, but I think it is actually the crossover rings. I love throwing a wacky rig and a neko, so I’m eager to try those.

@shawncollins7123 5 месяцев назад

Watched this twice. JW DROPPING knowledge something that deserves a second listen.

@chadtindell4388 5 месяцев назад

Heck yeah!! I’m here to tell ya this is the kind of video I search for I’ve followed a lot of content over the years and for me I really get fired up when someone as you gives up some juice lol the mayor stuff and flipping I really love and seeing you on my home lake was awesome!! Dude your killing it!!

@tolly123 5 месяцев назад

I'm still stunned on how fast he tied that Palomar knot. Muscle memory is crazy. 🤯

@PursuitofGameOutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Wonder how many times he’s tied that knot 🤔🤯

@branonbaker5963 5 месяцев назад

I've wondered all my life of which side of the eye to put your line through when tying the Palomar thank you for educating me

@lukerobinson8519 5 месяцев назад

Good afternoon from Georgia. I watched your videos and I really appreciate you always making changes to your fishing. Keep up the great work.

@ChrisHummer-ec1hw 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for your tips and knowledge. You help me with new techniques.

@CruzLopezOutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Love the tips and down and dirty on ins and outs of the techniques. Waiting for that worm to drop for sure

@3rdDayBaitCo 5 месяцев назад

I have been fishing a very long time but you always seem to share something I don’t know or something I haven’t thought about a certain bait. That Mag draft tuning tip was a great example. I had no idea you could tune a plastic swimbait. Anyway, keep the vids coming they are appreciated by fishermen/fisherwomen of all skill levels. You share details that can help everyone catch a few more fish. Tight lines brother.

@TimboSlyce30 5 месяцев назад

Watched the whole video and favorite part is simply Wheeler doing such an in depth video in a non-sponsored type feel. The best in the game!!

@chasevanover 5 месяцев назад

I’m intrigued by the big swimbaits both hard and soft so those were probably my favorite segments, specifically where to fish them.

@caseycarper5451 5 месяцев назад

I liked the tuning tip for the Magdraft the most. I had never seen that before.

@DavidELLIS-c2c 5 месяцев назад

I watched the whole video and started it over.I appreciate the fact that you consider the fisherman that doesn't necessarily have the money to buy certain baits and that some of the best ways to catch the big one is a worm not pegged or a wacky worm with 10 lb line or whatever works best for us.Stop teaching Connell how to fish lol

@trkrieger1478 5 месяцев назад

I love the mayor! I have had some good days with it. Can't wait to see what else you come up with. Thanks for the tips

@aaronwebb8559 5 месяцев назад

Love the videos and education. Liked the magdraft tuning

@JimmyBraswell 5 месяцев назад

It's the juice. The baits we know, but the it's little detail that makes all the difference! Keep it up man.

@10darnellm 5 месяцев назад

Having grown up in Indiana and moved to NC, I like how you relate to the average fisherman or woman. I also like how you tell us about your struggles or how you are still learning. Lastly, I like the good info. about the crossover for worms. I’m always trying to figure out the best way to save worms or plastics and save money.

@PatrickEngel-xy7jl 5 месяцев назад

Great information for me being new into the sport. Thanks much from southeast Michigan!

@basskicking4532 5 месяцев назад

Dude....I have learned from this video more than any of your other videos, maybe because what you covered is what I am experiencing and/or how and what I fish with 🤷‍♀. great stuff man! thank you!

@PursuitofGameOutdoors 5 месяцев назад

Try a blade bait to depending on water temperature. Water is extremely cold up here in Michigan. We did a video a couple weeks ago ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eDdMGHLOMFk.htmlsi=3noht-EqaEhTCC5q

@basskicking4532 5 месяцев назад

@@PursuitofGameOutdoors we are down here in TN and it’s summer time 10/12 months a year lol! We have started catching bass on top water and buzbaits 🤣

@Kykayakbasser 5 месяцев назад

Appreciate the magdraft tip on tuning. So i have a knot for you to try with Trigs, do a double snell, you'll have 3 tags afterwards, one up and two down. I haven't broke it on flouro yet! Good luck GOAT👊

@tomdadon756 5 месяцев назад

My favorite thing on the video was I learned that I was not subscribed, so I definitely subscribed and you are from Tennessee so I relate your bates to me because I live in Mid Tennessee so I watch you for everything you do because you are from Tennessee

@klaybloom5542 5 месяцев назад

Hey, thanks for the video. I’m 18. Trying to learn all I can about Fishing enjoyed all the contact watch the whole thing. My favorite part was all the Details about pitching. Also, the knot tie and the look at the map.

@ashtonaddair2297 5 месяцев назад

You really did give us some goods and the best bait you talked about was probably the wacky worm because I catch a lot of bass on it and it’s another great bait coming out that you designed 😊

@austinlunsford8321 5 месяцев назад

Enjoyed the video, very informational, and FYI that creek you were talking about at the first of the video was Whites Creek. Thanks for all the great info on your videos love watching them.

@Colby_Mac3 5 месяцев назад

The leader line size you mentioned (10 lb) is good but I’ve also found that in Heavy cover situation’s, that you can use 15 to 20 pound liter too. It gives me more reassurance
