[@billygreen316fishing]

[@BassGeek]

A men love the black and purple.

[@Army_Outdoors_88N]

[@richshackelford5793]

Great video thanks for sharing Hank

[@BassGeek]

Thank you for watching and supporting

[@richshackelford5793]

Just ordered 15 packs of worms and swim baits from Ramsey

[@jonahlawrence6204]

Great stuff I have over 40 rods and reels but might buy the Lew's lfs from tackle warehouse on sale for 67 dollars

[@BassGeek]

I would by 3 LOL they are just such a work horse reel.

[@Oldbasshole]

They’re great reels but for $65 it’s a steal !!

[@TeamJesusOutdoors]

Nice work, Hank!

[@BassGeek]

Thank you sir.

[@rhymedaddie]

Great set of baits Hank.

[@BassGeek]

Some good one's in there for sure.

[@diehardanglers]

Great selection of baits right there!

[@BassGeek]

It's good stuff.

[@rvfishingyet]

Fun video and I like your picks. Feel free to do bank top 5’s as well! Thanks BassGeek

[@BassGeek]

Thanks and most will translate

[@hillbillybassmasters9555]

I’m gonna have to try some of those pulse jig heads. I’m thinking very seriously of making my own mold and get some materials for scroungers. Those things are ridiculously high when you find the ones you want. Used to have them at Walmart years ago for cheap. Not anymore

[@BassGeek]

The thing that sets them apart is they stand up no mater the speed. Most the round heads blow out.

[@hillbillybassmasters9555]

@@BassGeek well that makes a difference. Thanks for the info BG.

[@poppy.fishing]

I would use alot of the same type of baits spook, poppers, most like a spinner, swim jig and a texas rig. #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

I sure toss those in there when the conditions are right.

[@poppy.fishing]

There are a lot of stumps, brush piles and grass spots on the lakes around here.

[@perkinscustomswimbaits]

Great video Hank! Really enjoyed it. My favorite summer baits are the glide bait and big topwater wakebait around docks and lay downs.

[@BassGeek]

That's cool. The glide bite here dies off after spring.

[@Oldbasshole]

Big wakebaits are definitely money this time of year !

[@perkinscustomswimbaits]

@@Oldbasshole they really are fun to throw.

[@Oldbasshole]

@@perkinscustomswimbaits agreed!! Love throwing a big rat this time of year ( especially at night ) Smallies hit them like they’re owed money !!

[@perkinscustomswimbaits]

@@Oldbasshole nice! I haven’t ever caught a smallie on a rat, I’ve mainly caught largemouth on the big wakes. These past two weekends I’ve had a hard time sitting the glide down. I had a 6.5 and a 4.32 lb largemouth.

[@garysummitt7833]

#100%watch-squad Hank If I had live scope I would use it, no apologizes you go and you rock. Love your videos keep fishing!!

[@BassGeek]

#100ROCKS Hey I love it and ain't we out here to catch fish? I do everything I can to catch not fish personally. lol

[@brianlee9074]

Yep. Similar choices here. I want to throw that Duo Spybait. I have the same color and it looks killer. Thanks for the video sir. You rock. #100percentwatchsquad 🤘😎🎣

[@BassGeek]

Thank you for watching I love to toss it and have several video's on how I use it.

[@NeilGraham.I.M.F]

Good stuff hank

[@BassGeek]

Thanks brother.

[@Saber_Outdoors]

Man you ain't lying its boiling hot here in KY too

[@BassGeek]

I love it!

[@Saber_Outdoors]

Not me i want my nice 75 80 degree days back

[@bradr.7249]

I love throwing those paddle tail swimbaits around. I usually will use an underspin at first with them. It that doesn't work, I just use a plain dirty jigs jig head and that usually gets bit. Sometimes they want the underspin, and sometimes they don't. I have not thrown the big worms too much because I usually get bit on other things. I need to give those a try. Thanks for the great content Hank!!

[@BassGeek]

Those big worms catch big bass for sure.

[@robertmonroe2665]

I cannot tell a lie, i love my tip water fishing. But i also need to learn other ways also. Thanks for the great video Hank 🎣🔥 #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

I'm with ya I love my topwater. I just know how it can come and go on ya.

[@bryanfranks6327]

Great baits for sure. You might look at the Trokar 1/8oz belly weight hooks. #100%watchsquad

[@BassGeek]

I like Trokar but I need just a little smaller weight.

[@Xworm312X]

Northern mi, I caught a 22in smallmouth on a Ned rig

[@BassGeek]

Heck yeah! Nice one

[@takeakidfishing3130]

I have been using the 10 inch worm and scrounger. I use the swim jig, but never try to use just a swim head without the skirt.

[@BassGeek]

Nice I love the big worms in the summer

[@Cornelius798]

Strike King Caffine Shad is money for me, and I'm fishing from the bank. I forgot my EWG 4/0's, so I nose hooked them like a drop shot hook point buried on a 2/0 offset worm hook. The action is incredible. #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

I love'em. I use them to get down deep as a follow up bait to swimbaits. It's a KILLER.

[@LowBrowFishing]

#100percentwatchsquad Around here fishing has become a real drag...as in I'm dragging a worm or a jig because those are the only ways I can get bites. The water temp is over 90° and feels like bathwater. Air temps won't come down under 100 until October probably, lol. But I'll still be out there sweatin' and fishin'!

[@BassGeek]

LOL yeah It's that time of year for sure. I'm just happy I have a few lakes up in the mountains to catch a break from the heat on.

[@Ryanwills7]

Try the Berkeley fusion 19 hook’s for the fluke

[@BassGeek]

I will thank you.

[@jimtom4878]

I want that color of walking bait now lol

[@BassGeek]

It is sick.

[@davidwilliams1805]

Great video and those top 5 baits were spot on! Thanks for sharing some really good information. Enjoyed and looking forward to more great content. As always, #BassGeek rocks!!!

[@BassGeek]

Thank you sir I love to fish during the summer. It is my favorite time of year.

[@Bottomfeederonfire]

Good stuff as always! I fish Hartwell mainly but the damiki rig absolutely slays on Keowee. That translucent color is like Krispy Kreme to fat kid. I’m speaking from experience on both the damiki and the donuts. #100%watchsquad

[@BassGeek]

Hahahaha I love Krispy Cream!

[@bobwilliamson2828]

#100PWS My favorite thing in July in the Deep South- Air conditioning, LOL

[@BassGeek]

I literally feel that.

[@michaelstake7440]

#100%watchclub 0:01

[@BassGeek]

OH Yeah #100

[@jaybiz84]

I killed em this wkend with 6th sense whale and an underspin

[@BassGeek]

Hahaha. you should see the new vide you’ll laugh.

[@ChristophercurtisChris]

No I am not use any those type of beats I did catch my first PB nice-looking Bass

[@BassGeek]

Good baits and they catch bass as you can see.

[@ChristophercurtisChris]

You help me out with good tricks you can risk my good-luck on microphone for a good 10 pounder

[@BassGeek]

hahahaha I would love to catch a 10 for sure.

[@Michigan_Dropped_Suvs_Trucks]

✊. What pound fishing line do you always use ?

[@BassGeek]

It changes with the type of lure In using

[@Michigan_Dropped_Suvs_Trucks]

@@BassGeek what would you recommend for a beginner for like dock fishing the normal typical pound line

[@BassGeek]

It still really depends on what your cast to the docks. I don’t want to tell you to light. If Imm flipping it’s got to be heavy 20 minimum. If I’m casting to the out side or fishing down the edges it can be 12-17 l. I always air on the heavier side when fishing docks

[@terrancetaylor9964]

What size is that spy bait? I have the alpha 62 or 72 and want a bigger one

[@BassGeek]

I like the 80's and 120's myself for deeper water.

[@rmoore208vx]

HAPPY INDEPENDENTS DAY .

[@BassGeek]

Happy Independence Day!
