Do less sharp turns and slow down the figure eight

Love the relax lure guys shoes can you buy them 😊

Disgusting treatment of the fish, from tattoord forearm member shimano..Regardless of competitionit is still an animal.People like him,damage our reputation.

Congratulations Sebastian and Dustin 💯

Really good intro video for the most part but misses out on some key points: 80# braid, steel or 150# leader, reels often tightened down too much on a drag & something has to give: That only give is the rod action. Chaos Tackle uses a moderate fast so the blank can take a fighting fish boatside while it's still a hot fish. That's not nearly as good with a fast taper rod IMHO. I own St Croix (Legend Tournament) 2-10 oz H & a Legend Elite 3/4-3 oz M. The 2-10 oz sucks! There is zero parabolic bend to load up on a cast. It's horrible to even try ripping or twitching baits. The M rod is decent though. I changed over to Chaos Tackle 20/20 for the most part because of the moderate fast actions & how they are just incredible with bait presenting. I don't agree with the video suggesting only H or XH rods. They serve their purposes, no doubt. As do the M rods in that 3/4 oz starting weight range (Many inline spinners, spinner baits, crank baits, Suicks etc fall under a 4 oz range as examples). Pick the right rod to fit whatever bait you think you'll be using the most for starting out as rod #1, IMHO There are also handle pistol grip extensions available for some of the rods baked in from the factory & others can have them installed. I'm not a fan. I tried them but just don't find them comfortable. Some guys love them though. This also has to be taken into account when musky rod shopping. See if someone around you can fish with you so their pistol grips can be tried perhaps? I don't fully agree with the caster's height being the only factor. It's actually the height + height of the boat gunnel above the water line that make the rod length instead. I have a Chaos Tackle 8' 6" & 9' Swat rods. The 9' for my boat + my height inhibits bait presentations because I'm tapping the water with the rod tip way too often. A 8' 6" is ideal for me- I can make a wide 8 all day long & properly control a bait's presentation. The 9' is a bit too long. My 10' Shock & Awe is just way too long, period for the boat & my height. Examples? compare a kayak vs a bass boat hull vs a deep vee & there are 3 very different heights above the water. Rod length is way more than just castability because once the bait is in the water, it has to also be presented enticingly & that's all on the rod. Daiwa DX series handles weights really well. I own the 2-8 oz model. Sensitive, can fling 5 oz with ease (most I've tried so far) & it's in the $99 range for budget conscious. Daiwa markets it as a swimbait rod but works great as a musky rod. The video touches upon telescopic rods but doesn't really deep dive the benefits. My rod locker is 8'. I can squeeze a 8' 6" rod. Telescopic musky rods allow a 10' rod to shrink down to 8' 4", a 9 footer down to under 8' collapsed. Being able to fit rods in a locker is so important for boats that have them. Critical even. When rod shopping, make sure you have a way to transport the rod. Without a rod locker, i can't even fit anything longer than 8' in my car. overall rod length is critical Also, I don't take a rod length at face value. Measure where it counts: Line up reel seats or line up foregrips & actually see what the lengths are of the blank because that's a meat & potatoes of the rod. Daiwa DX rods are 8 footers, & when lined up by reel seats is only 2" shorter than Chaos Tackle's 8' 6" rods because it has a 4" shorter butt. Close enough in length for nice sweeping figure 8s. I own the 2-8 oz model. Daiwa cost? $99!! (I could not pass it up!) More rod details? Trolling! The entire realm of musky trolling rods are missing. My trolling rods are Chaos Tackle 7' trolling rods off the corners & I admittedly cheaped out on 9' Shimano TDR M & MH (H is way too heavy for musky IMHO) rods paired with decent reels to give me about a 25' spread with 4 rods in the water. I haven't found a need for a pricey long side rod, so I cut corners. I did grab the 7 footers because they fit my boat perfectly for the transom corners. For starting out on a budget? Diawa DX 2-8 oz range + a Piscifun 300 to give a solid, balanced all around rod to being with. The entire combo is under the $220 range. Reels are a whole other topic :) :) All of this is my extra 2 cents. I made mistakes with St. Croix thinking how could I go wrong, it's a St. Crox after all.... very expensive lesson learned & the H rod sits on a shelf. I hope this helps someone else.

Thoughts on the diawa tatula 300? Would that work for musky?

My favourite on Eagle Lake Ont. Is the "purple crush" CBJr.

Good video!!! I especially liked the correct emphasis on a sweeping 8 or circle or oval, including fish can't turn on a dime. They are visual. They lose sight, they lose interest. I adamantly disagree with locking a drag down. When a fish needs to swim, it needs to swim because THAT is what drag is meant for; that's it's job. Locking drag down 100% on any reel risks ripping hooks from the jaw, puts unnecessary strain on the rod, on the line, on the reel gears. Very very very bad suggestion! Drag is meant to let a hot fish swim when it wants...it'll tire soon enough & come back to the boat. With your drag adjusted appropriately, and if you find yourself wanting a little extra tension, simply put your thumb on the spool to stop line from being stripped- easy peazy & there's no extra pressures being added unnecessarily all the other times. I'll also add & disagree with the video about free spooling when needed while a fish is on because all this does is engage the line release while the reel is under pressure & they are not meant for that (expect your reel to be all busted up over time & have a mucho shorter lifepsan if you do that) Also missed the boat on hook sharpening. Don't test a hook's sharpness on your finger skin like the video shows. Don't test it by feeling it dig in as you slide it down a fingernail either (though, yes, that is a sharp hook). Sharpen a hook with a triangle or cone. I use a triangle & focus on just the point left side, right side & front side on a fine "grit" file. Then, when you put the hook on your fingernail, you'll literally feel the hook "sink" a little bit & it'll take a noticeable "pop" to release it- now, that is a razor sharp hook that's ready for use. Also, don't assume because 1 point is good, they're all good- check each point, don't be lazy & risk losing a fish of a lifetime. The video 200% missed the point on this. Also I did not hear "keep checking hook sharpness" because when hooks are as sharp as I'm describing, it only takes a few weeds to knock off that point. Keep checking the sharpness. I partly agree with longer the better with rods. Boat height + caster height comes into play. I have 7' 10", 8 1/2', 9', 10' rods on my boat. The 9' & 10' by far give me the most gradual sweeping turns on a figure 8. The 7' 10" is the most difficult making a good 8. The 8' 6" is a good average for my boat & my height. He forgot to include boat height off the water. My 9' & 10' rods are so long every twitch or rip splashes the tip in the water. Lure action is negatively impacted by those rod lengths. 8 1/2 footers are perfect for my individual scenario of boat + my heights This might be a personal preference & it's why I'm also using Chaos Tackle rods. I do not like a fast or extra fast rod taper on musky rods. The fish needs something to give on a boat side strike. Chaos Tackle rods use a moderate fast taper allowing more of the rod blank to bend in a fight....built in give with braided line (that does not stretch), tight drags, heavy rods & thick hooks (something has to give). I will never consider a F or XF taper rod for musky, though I admit I might be in a minority thinking like this because far too many musky rods are essentially bass rods beefed up, without any real thinking of boat side hooksets & large, hot fish being boatside. Something has to provide give & a moderate fast or moderate does that job optimally. It's a good video but falls short in the areas where I elaborated. Hopefully it helps someone because I made some very expensive mistakes initially.

Really curious for that spinning reel video!!! Cant see it on your channel. Did it ever happen?

Set the hook right next time. Wait on it another second

It looks like the meg

This is why i love topwater fishing

Hauli Shit 😂

Varför lägger ni ut gamla klipp och luras att de är nya?? Skäms!! 125 visningar på 6 timmar ?? Vart tog tidigare visningar vägen?? Fusk och lögn premierar inte er kanal!! Låt mig i fortsättningen slippa lurendrejeri att ödsla tid på repriser som jag kunde ägnat åt annat!!

Could you tell me what “Bite of Bleak” means? I know it is the name of a company but in English it doesn’t really make sense.

Why are you so fuck*ng late!?!?!?! Perch Pro is over thince one month , Nays is the winner!!!

new Perch Pro is out? weird, i never got any notifications...need to watch previous episodes.

That’s your opinion on the diawa prorex reel

Panfish guys are wild ….. those were some megas … cool how there hittin lures too

Nice! Well Done!!

Not kidding I had an even crazier pike jump about 4,5 feet up from the water to try and get my svartzonker mchybrid (btw it’s not a topwater lure but i was reeling really fast) 😅it missed though so I casted in the same spot and hooked it again. Btw it was in Sweden so a European pike

Thanks

Too much storage, not enough Live well .

Best feeling in fishing

I use a shimano slx lmao

As someone who is 5’6” I’ve definitely been satisfied with only using a rod that’s 7’ or 7’6” - it really is just down to what you’re comfortable throwing and using all day

It INHALED that sucker

Stopped watching 2 minutes in due to poor camera quality. Pixels everywhere

EPIC FISH!

HOT TIPS" THANX!!! jd

You have the exact boat I want, even the Suzuki motor. It's been two years how has it been holding up? Also how much did you pay for it?

He didn’t just bite, he *I N H A L E D* the bait.

dang thas crazy fast for slomo

What do you think is a good reel for glidebaits?

I was literally there today some fatiies out this early in the season

Thank you so much I'm getting into musky/pike fish and this helped a lot

Nice!!

Bro disappeared

Amazing, well done

What kind of net is that I like it ! Great video !

I prefer St. CROIX Mojo musky Mefium heavy 7'2" and St. CROIX Tournament Pike rods Medium Heavy 7' and 7'6"

Looking to go to Sweden next month, can you share where you rented your boat from and where you stayed?

What would reel would you pair with that MOJO Musky rod with?

I totally enjoyed this video... Fast paced & above all else it's not another utterly useless "watch me catch fish" crap video. I liked what you have to say. Thumbs up

those pike are looking very skinny,

yeah i also think european perch are larger, they can reach up to 6.5-7lbs they are pretty rare but a more common size is 1-2 lbs

hi, im just wondering, because in north america the northern pike are genereally smallen than their european counterparts, but its still the same spcies, are european like about the same size as muskie or are the muskie larger, european pike has been known to reach 30kg in weight and here in sweden its pretty comom to see 15-18kg ones swedish record beeing 21kg

I caught so many walleye at the damn and a huge pike at pokema Mississippi River at Grand Rapids mN

Where ya located? Let’s get out on some skinny water, my treat…got a new rig this year;);)

Ive been using Inshore salt water set ups and they have been awesome for me! The baits cast over 100 yards and give me really accurate bait presentations. ❤🙏
