Best Pond Lure for BASS!?

[@mnairsofter9879]

People get way too obsessed with trimming tags. If the fish either didnt see or didnt care about the rest of your line, its not going to care about an eighth of an inch left over at your knot. And if you didnt quite tie right and your knot slips a bit on that first hookset, itll likely give enought leeway for the knot to tighten instead of unraveling.

[@JVBfishing]

That makes sense

[@johndeer-he5de]

I burn them so there's a tiny ball of plastic at the end that acts as an anchor

[@JVBfishing]

@@johndeer-he5de Never heard that before

[@alilo-da9153]

​@@johndeer-he5de the og move. My grandpa did that I can't believe I forgot about it til I just read your comment. Serious function in that technique I never realized

[@an_den_mond]

😂brother, it's doing what most kids do as noobs the right way. Keep it up! Like a samurai knows...your weapons , methods, etc. in the little details resideds the key to success

[@LucasandColten]

I caught my PB on the green one. It is really good in my opinion and experience.

[@JVBfishing]

Yeah, that's awesome!

[@Gurbst]

Keep the top of the fluke below the eye of the hook, not covering your knot. You get better action when it’s not threaded so far up

[@JVBfishing]

The reason I thread it on that far is so it won't rip off as easily.

[@racketyjack]

You can use these in the bay and along the coast too. My best have been either solid white or chartreuse. They have caught flounder, halibut, sand and kelp bass, various small sharks, and the occasional very annoying bat ray.

[@JVBfishing]

And I haven't even heard of some of those species

[@racketyjack]

@@JVBfishing Lol. I fished around San Diego bay in small boats and kayaks and wading out in the surf. Occasionally jetties. Loads of fun. These are definitely multi species lures. They were not my only lure or bait, but were a big part of my arsenal.

[@racketyjack]

@@JVBfishing Oh, and for the guys saying dont trim. I always trimmed. Yes a knot can slip, but that almost never happens if you tie it right and pull it tight. A big tag line sticking out looks un-natural to a fish.

[@JVBfishing]

@@racketyjack Yeah, I kinda agree

[@JVBfishing]

@@racketyjack That's pretty awesome!

[@Fishing_James]

When you don’t leave a little tag end braid slips a lot so you can easily lose lots of lites form not leaving some tag end.

[@JVBfishing]

So far I've had no problems on braid or floro, but if I start breaking off I'll have to try that.

[@Fishingforlife69]

@@JVBfishingI have that problem but I fish for walleyes and starting bowfin so lots of strength

[@jeffd3811]

I call bs on other kid comment baby booty boy ya know

[@JVBfishing]

@@Fishingforlife69 I'll have to keep that in mind when tying my knots

[@Thatzazaking]

​@@JVBfishing That's where the palomar not comes in hand

[@ThomasWinter-i4r]

You should use a leader, fish see braid very easily, also the hook is buried to far in the plastic, you could miss a fish because there has to be so much pressure there.

[@JVBfishing]

Yeah, most of the time I use braid in my videos because it's easier to see what's going on. But I agree.

[@ThomasWinter-i4r]

@@JVBfishing Ok, just wanted to give tip, keep making videos!!

[@JVBfishing]

@@ThomasWinter-i4r Thank you and I will!

[@mikefromoh2925]

Those are actually my two favorite colors! Try nose hooking with a circle hook sometime.

[@JVBfishing]

I've heard of people doing that with a drop shot, but that's new to me

[@one_new_skill]

Good video fishing line 👍

[@JVBfishing]

@@one_new_skill thanks

[@mantooth4233]

My favorite and most effective lure. You will go through them though because those bass tear them up. Again definitely my my number one used (especially pearl with sparkles) swim bait

[@JVBfishing]

yeah if really you start catching them

[@YETANOTHORBASS]

Personally, I use the Palomar knot cause it's easier and stronger though I have heard of the uni having its benefits what is your experience with them?

[@JVBfishing]

I don't have any complaints with the uni, which is why I haven't switched to the Palomar. The uni just happens to be the one I learned first, so I guess I just stuck with it.

[@Spc20061]

Haven’t used braid but maybe I need to give it a try!!

[@JVBfishing]

I would normally have florocarbon, but I also use this rod for frog fishing.

[@CrcrcrcrCrcrcrcr]

I usually wrap my uni knot 3 times. I fish for amberjack and it has never given up on me.

[@julianxuereb]

Same but i try to catch amberjack but I dont actually succeed😂

[@JVBfishing]

Yeah, I guess it just depends on what size of fish you're going for.

[@JVBfishing]

@@julianxuereb lol

[@shogun5026]

I love how he missed the first time 😅 love the video 🔥

[@JVBfishing]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@chrissutton8354]

Wet the line befor synching it tight and leave a little tag end especially if you dont wet it.

[@JVBfishing]

I'll try that

[@Billy_bob_420]

You need to get a stick and wrap the line around and grab the hook and really crank on it so the knot is fully sunk down

[@chrissutton8354]

@JVBfishing I've made the mistake of not wetting the line and not leaving a tag end and getting broke off especially at the worst time.

[@JVBfishing]

@@Billy_bob_420 A stick?

[@Billy_bob_420]

@JVBfishing yup a stick unless you want to use your hands but its hard to tigten down fully without cutting yourself unless you use a stick. you will see the knot color change to a dark color and you almost cant see the wraps its so tight, when you really rip on it with the stick and it will be sealed forever until you cut it. Iv used it and have never lost a hook to a huge catfish without my line breaking in the middle.

[@makinglure]

Nice 👌👏

[@JVBfishing]

thanks

[@barberiavalles]

Cómo se llama ese lure? What the name of the lure?

[@JVBfishing]

It's called a fluke

[@ChaseR09]

The baby bass fluke by yum shown here is a killer

In addition to this I rub smoked trout all over the lure.

Have you made a donkey rig with a double fluke?

You should give Elite Marine Technology flukes a try nothing on the market is better. Jb10 for 10%Off
