ALL Pro Anglers Fish This Lure In The Fall..(But Don’t Admit)

[@TomKirkman1]

That tail shape was invented by a guy in Greensboro, NC way back in the late 1960's. He called it a "bell tail." Trying to remember his name. His wife was my dad's secretary at the time. He gave me some. I was a kid and thought it was the oddest shape I'd ever seen on a plastic bait. Within a few years it was everywhere.

Very interesting story man

[@danielmeganhauger2414]

Definitely love hearing these kinds of stories

[@brianpierson7708]

I hope he’s getting payed off it or rather his kids

[@DanielBoone337]

This bait was my intro into throwing big swimbaits about 2 years ago then I started with the big glide baits ... but the 8" magdraft is still one of my favorites. I'm down here in SW Louisiana and have a camp on Toledo bend, I fish Sam Rayburn, and make the trip to Lake Fork pretty regularly and it's crazy that it took me this long to start playing with these big baits.

[@edpelkey7798]

Great info Randy! You always give us the Juice every video (on all channels) 💯

[@russrollins9978]

Have you ever caught a bass, or any other fish for that matter, on a Heddon Crazy Crawler? When I was much younger, my grandfather had a camp on Lake Champlain. I was going through his tackle box and came across a Crazy Crawler. I thought that if a fish went after that it would probably be a big one. But, I have never gotten so much as a swirl when I have tried to fish it.

[@davidrussell9290]

I have and do. They have a smaller size too. I throw them every year and noticed that megabass and other companies have copied them. They're awesome. Steady retrieve. You'll get all sizes of fish.

[@BASSNGRASS]

I’ve got some big ones on it.. and when they hit it, they really hit it

[@GLCOT]

Randy what would you say the water temperature window would be for “Fall” and using the Mag Draft? I’m in South Texas and fall here is kinda hard to determine. But I can get lined up on some water temperature.👍

80% of the time 😊

[@Yakkinoutdoors]

I swear I can throw all kind of high dollars crank baits but that darn bandit just out performs all of them😂😅

[@Gitz-Zum]

Great video

[@zachg5356]

Thanks Randy! Curious how you feel about the freestyle? Have you used them? Have you tried that tush hook?

[@amateurstanding]

Work great for 5 casts

[@andybales7318]

I'd like them to make a floating version, for a nice wakebait

[@RichyBobby611]

Gut the harness, and rig them weedless (10/0 or 11/0 Owner/Mustad/VMC/Gamakatsu for the 8", 16/0 BKK Titan for the 10"). They can be swam at different speeds than the standard harness version.

Just buy the magdraft freestyle

[@RichyBobby611]

@andybales7318 look up "Magdraft Weedless Modification", Oliver Ngy has a really good video on how to do it. Some of my biggest largemouth the last 3 years (including a 9lbs 8oz beast from Missouri) on a weedless modded 8".

[@robertpatterson3406]

I thought Zaldains new and improved bass mafia dangerous model would make the mag draft obsolete but I still use the Megabass version it works pretty darn good if you ask me.

[@ShenkFishingCO]

In a recent video you talked about smaller baits being key in September/Fall. In your opinion, does a 6-8” work better than a finesse 3” swimbait? Thank you, I love your videos.

[@genedevore6921]

Do you replace the stock hook? And what colors are your "go to" colors? Thanks for the video Randy!

[@randyblaukatintuitive]

I use the stock hook. Nude rainbow is my favorite

[@genedevore6921]

@@randyblaukatintuitive thank you sir!

[@paulschwarz8990]

What setup do you use for the 8”

[@mmeyer2138]

Randy, Have you thrown the Megabass DEAD SLOWL swimbait yet? If so, what are your thoughts?

[@siryarwammowray3445]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@DFWdarin]

I'm going to guess and say umbrella rig? Now I begin the video.

[@kennethcorbin7317]

Hey Randy, why don't you take your kids fishing and show them having fun? Just for something different. Thanks for the videos. They have been real helpful.

[@WFSmith]

It is probably hard raising kids at his age so maybe fishing alone is his quiet time away from home

[@kennethcorbin7317]

@@WFSmith I know right. I think me and Randy are about the same age. I could only imagine having kids at my age. Lol 😆

[@tug5665]

Randy, Sometimes it seems like your podcasts are nothing more than an ad for mega bass products. Not everyone can afford those high-priced lures

[@ayaazismail8817]

I feel bait companies use professional anglers as commercials for their products. Some anglers will never say "Senko", only "The General", or never say "chatter bait", only "Thunder cricket". Makes one think twice about the product advise they give.

[@locodragon28]

This bait is fantastic!! He is not lying!!

[@locodragon28]

I catch constantly with 8"

[@rollievancleave2999]

Looks like a Berkley Cull Shad.

[@frankhunt5018]

Actually, the Berkley Cull Shad looks like the Magdraft.

[@dong8307]

Agree, the Berkley Cull Shad knocked of the Megabass.

[@locodragon28]

First batch of cull shads are trash!!! Run horrible.
