Bryan Schmidt has the Ned dred. That jig got me thinking about the presentation it does. For me, I found that it works very well. Most times I can get bit just letting it sit there. Then OSP came out with their version of the "Dice". I took a big TRD in green pumpkin, some purple stands off a jig I had, threaded the strands with a wire bread tie and made a version of my own. Since it floats I applied it to a drop shot. With a 18 in leader it performed beautifully. I did manage to catch quite a few dinks but the trick was to keep it in the 10 ft deep range and fish it slow and very little action. Since it's gotten cooler now I'm fishing your mini swimjigs and D chunks. I can fish more water and cover more structure. Great video & I think I might make some for spring

Yesterday I went & tried some jig and square bill action. They just wasn't having it!!! Not even a nibble. Sky was blue, no clouds. Wind was 3 - 5 mph. They didn't want a whopper plopper, shakeyhead nor Ned rig. They wanted a sapphire blue Senko with big black flakes & no weight at all. They inhaled 2 bags of them!!! I even went through 7 jigheads!!!! But it didn't surprise me at all. Great video

Awesome series John. Something fresh. I've been bass fishing and loving every minute of it for over 50 years. Missile baits are a staple in my BassCat. The DBomb is .... Well .... DBomb. Good luck this upcoming season fishing the Elites and in the business realm as well. Be safe and God Bless. Keep droppin it on'em.
@rodneystewart7334Ай бұрын
I have found through my 50 years bass fishing that its better to be good with and master a couple of baits that you are confident with than always switching back and forth with a lot of different choices. If you stick to say a senko and crankbait only and learn how to adapt your presentation to conditions, it seems to be more productive. I know a guy that spends hunreads a year on the latest greatest and struggles to make up his mind on which fancy new lure to tie on because he has too many. I have a few. A senko or crankbait, and a senko again if crankbait fails to produce. Works for me.

I've been fishing my Drop-Shot rigs using a Ned-Rig as my Drop-Shot sinker. I've also used a Texas-Rig or a Finesse-Jig to take the place of the traditional Drop-Shot sinker. I'll use the same soft-plastic baits at two different levels of the water. In my mind it's a vertical presentation of the horizontally fished donkey-rig.

@ADKyakmanАй бұрын
It’s called a drop dead ned. You aren’t the only person to do this my friend
@ADKyakmanАй бұрын
I wasn’t throwing shade on how you throw your stop shot. Was just letting you know there’s a name for it. And it’s widely known. Another good tactic is using a Texas rig weight with a drop shot weight, with a glass bead- or no bead, either way they’ll clack and make extra noise the bead just helps assure there’s extra noise like on a C rig. I find this technique works especially well with walleyes, but use a clear bead, if you use a brass bead or red bead, they might go for that instead of the bait. When I’d run out of drop shot weights I’d use a Texas rig, upside down, and double peg the bottom of my line to hold it , in that scenario I also use a bead but on top of the weight , the Texas rig upside down actually gives you a really good return on what your fishing on top of thru your line

Good stuff! I catch plenty on the Drop Shot and love the technique but, I have one concern. Why can't I get bit with a full sized 4' or even a 6" worm? I always start with a 4" worm, usually a Zoom Finesse worm but, have to bite maybe 1/2-1" off just to get bit. I nose hook. I'm thinking larger bass would take a larger worm but, they just don't seem to hit the same worm in 6." Any idea why? Thanks.

I am a hobbyist lure maker and have made over 250 wooden lures. I make them to give to friends and family members, and have donated nearly half of them to charities. And since I could never afford these high-end lures on the market, I make and keep a few for myself. I can relate to almost everything Josh has said, to the point of chill bumps. LOL I work with CAD by trade and design lures and templates in CAD. I was even born and raised in Kansas City, on the Missouri side... and have family in Topeka. Very enjoyable show!
