I think you have a hand full of haters out there...it seems like there’s always like 5-10 people that give your videos thumbs down. People are so petty and worthless.... You always produce good videos man keep it up.
I can't remember which video it is, but he opened the video with the usual "what up m'fers" and this random mom just went mental. "My kids watch you and I just dont think you saying that is appropriate! I dont think we'll be able to continue watching unless this behavior gets fixed!"
Love the pool demos. Id like to see all the cheaper glidebaits and swimbaits tested. Like under $40. Squarebill crankbaits would also be great to see how well they hunt.
Never fished a hard swim/glide style bait but after seeing this makes me want to start checking into them. I really love these test videos you been putting out. Keep up the good work !!! 👍👍👍
Sly guy maker doesn't take pre orders anymore. He's got his website up now and sells them through there. They sell out within a couple minutes though when they drop
I’m not a huge bass fisherman so I only have 1 rod and that is a 6’6” medium spinning rod. That’s what I throw everything on spoons crank baits worms. So I’d probably throw those on it.
River 2 sea works great but im throwing that on a medium heavy and 12lb floro. Braid seems to mess with the action of me glide baits. Gancrafts, Deps do better on floro.
yea i cant put that much money in lures with how i lose them haha. I like to paint my own baits so i may try to make some of these jointed baits and paint them up...
Swimbaitunderground you can usually snag some of these baits. Sometimes get them for a better price too for any of y'all looking and having trouble finding them highly suggest it. Also got some other dope forums on there about big baits. Awesome video BTW keep up the great work!
Haven’t been watching your channel for a while now, but just wanted to say this was a nice video to revisit too. I don’t know if I am ready to drop $170.00 on a lure, but seeing how they glide, really is educational. Thanks for sharing so I can know what to expect if I would ever make that choice to purchase.
for those wondering the reason the smaller baits don't glide as wide is because of their size . They can only have so much mass behind each glide, so most will glide about 1-2 times their body length. When he refers to it doesn't have as wide a glide when comparing it to the Hinkle that isn't really being fair to the bait because it is less than half the profile
that's the same reason the deps 250 glide the widest over the others is because it is the biggest. And in comparison a 262t , Rafael godfather. Roman made mother, and the hinkle trout will all glide farther than the 250
Great video! Enjoy these types of videos in the mix. Learn a lot. Appreciate the info you give and great to see the movement of the baits in the pool. I enjoy fishing more after watching your videos. Like to practice what I’m learning from you. Thanks.
Thanks for the tip on how you run your Hinkle and 250...I've been on the glide baits for the last week since the fall transition is just really starting where I'm at and am going to incorporate that into my retrieves...actually I'm going to run down the road to my local slaunch pond right now and throw out my hinkle, 5.5" and 8" savage gear glide "swimmers" and a 10.25" hand made wood glide bait I made last winter similar to the Roman Mother in a shad pattern to see if I can get at least one of them smashed with that method. 🎣🕔💪🤯
Awesome comparison video! Really cool to see the full action of these baits in clear water. I still have an idea for a worm that I want to share with you and have you test out.
Have you ever seen Malins baits on RU-vid. This guy is amazing. You tell him what you want and he will make.I am sure he's pricey and I don't know if he sells them.
Great video I like comparison videos they help alot . The most expensive lures in my box are the whopper poppers. Someday maybe I can get a big glide bait
How about a comparison of the name brand baits vs. the knock-off store brands, like Live Target vs. Academy Sports? Keep the price below $20 if you can, I can’t afford that high end stuff right now so I’m keeping it cheap and have had pretty good luck with some of Academy’s stuff. S-Waver is on my list but I need one of the Plopper 75s first.
Any other glides with a price point like the baitsanity that does them wide glides that has more color options I like the threadfin or gizzard shad colors for my lakes
Really like this video! I haven't gone to the swimbait world yet, maybe one day. But I hate the idea of losing an $8 bait (well I get kinda pissed when I lose any bait really..) but I wouldn't even wanna throw a bait that cost as much as any of those!!! I'd have a heart attack if I lost it!!
Great video bro you should look into the Hiroshima Glide baits, and HPH Glide baits. The HPH is a glidebait that you can fish faster than most Glide baits, plus it's super realistic.
You can make the s waver glide much more from side to side by filing just a very little bit off of the sharp edge of the hinge part of the back side of the split/gap of whatever you call it. It's just the sharp edge that keeps it from turning more, so by minor filing, you keep the integrity of the bait but get much more side to side glide. Would have been nice to see an I slide next to the line up as well.
Can you do a video or tutorial on the different jig head styles? Such as swim jig or football jig just to name a couple. I started fishing fresh water a few years back and still don't quite understand the world of using jigs. I am a salt guy learning how to fish fresh.
Great video. Would you say you catch more on the Hinkle because you use it more, or you see the difference in bites? They're some pricey baits, but always curious if they work better than say deps 250 if used equally.
I know this is a test video but would you tie braid straight to the bait or run a heavy fluoro/mono leader? Seems like the heavier braid would be to visible and turn fish away?
I just got my Hinkle shad and for a steal and also have the baitsanity trout explorer TE9 and looking to get a department bitch brown trout for a good price too
Don’t cost much at all if you make your own, have been since 1983. My lures have seven hinges, and more realistic movement, they haven’t figured out why yet.
Great vid Ben. Thank you. Are you throwing these baits on lakes with large baitfish? I am a pond hopper and just started throwing the 6th sense flow glider in bluegill and the s waver 168 in light trout. Catching* them 9n the 6th sense but nothing on s waver. My ponds do not have shad to my knowledge. But definitely have bluegill, carp, minnows, etc... dammit I just need to buy a boat. Thanks in advance for any advise on pond fishing with swim baits.
