BIG Winter Bass Eat BIG Winter Baits

[@jessevowell2554]

When a Smallie smokes a swimbait. They should make that a into a drug.

[@BassGeek]

Yes! I agree!

[@bertsalas]

Good stuff Hank! Looking to build confidence in the soft baits this season!

[@BassGeek]

Awesome

[@Bassassinator]

I am going to try some big baits tomorrow morning! Thanks for the tips.

[@BassGeek]

Go get’em

[@rvfishingyet]

I am enjoying the mag swimbait setups. Cant wait to be on a Yak to have better options for it. Thanks for the tip on the Trokar hook option, owner beast are harder to find.

[@BassGeek]

Yes you’ll love it

[@davidwilliams1805]

Thanks Hank for some very useful information! Always learning from your videos! Appreciate you and what you do buddy!

[@BassGeek]

Thank you and I hope ya pick up a biggun!

[@bryanfranks6327]

Thanks for the info Hank, I’ve just in the last year started throwing big swim baits. I’ve been throwing the Daingerous swimmer. Just got the 6th sense Hangover to try out. It’s a line through top hook.

[@BassGeek]

Both good

[@kyleskaggs7458]

Huuuudddyyyy, I remember that man. Thanks for all you do Hank.

[@BassGeek]

Hahahahaha thanks

[@dallis11]

Great Video! Appreciate the information! Thanks for sharing!

[@BassGeek]

Thank you! It helps to have you guys support and watch. Thank you so much.

[@mikesawyer6742]

Thanks Hank for the nudge. I have a rainbow hoodie and. Couple others. I will give them a try in the near future. It’s not a confidence bait of mine but Mabey this will get me over the 5 lb hump. Lol. Excluding Striper. 💯 %watchsquad.

[@BassGeek]

Go Get'em

[@seantobin8547]

Great video. Thank u

[@BassGeek]

Thank you very much.

[@richshackelford5793]

Thanks for sharing Hank

[@BassGeek]

Thanks for watching! You Rock Rich!

[@tomjudson258]

Just got the new 6sense 5” Hangover. Gonna start throwing that.

[@BassGeek]

Nice those are a spring bait for me. A little light for my depths.

[@kentuckytrapper780]

One of my favorites, I fished a tournament today,tough as a nite in jail,lol. Great video..

[@BassGeek]

It was tough the last time I was out. Is it spring yet?

[@kentuckytrapper780]

@@BassGeek won't be long,lol 😂

[@Saber_Outdoors]

What is your opinion on paddle tail vs wedge tail swim baits

[@BassGeek]

Every thing is situational. I know that’s not a great answer but it’s true. The wedge is wide but natural movement. The boot has a little more wide kick but based on the bait softness and speed of retrieve that can depend on when and how to use it

[@brianlee9074]

Love those Keitech swimbaits, 2.8 to 7.8 and that huddle 68 oh yeah. #100percentwatchsquad 🎣✌️

[@BassGeek]

Oh yeah you know it

[@ahall702]

Mega bass spark Shad’s are great

[@BassGeek]

That’s a good one I like the smaller ones more then the larger ones

[@michaelstout3704]

Once again, great video and info about a hardly used technique. #100watchsquad

[@BassGeek]

Thanks sir. You know me I love to be weird.

[@justcallmedyno8938]

The huddleston 68 is the 6 inch bait with the 8 inch baits tail. I guess pros used to cut off the tails of the 8 inch and glue them to a 6 inch bait, so huddleston just started making them that way

[@BassGeek]

Yeah I like that old 68special. It's sweet in the winter. Slow as you want to go with it.

[@ericpettyfishing]

Savage gear makes really awesome big soft swimbaits. Their price point is great too.

[@ericpettyfishing]

I have the 7 and 8 inch version is almost every color. The silver trout absolutly works wonders, at least for me. Theyre cheap too!!! 13 dollars!!!!

[@BassGeek]

Yes they do.

[@BassGeek]

Can't beat that price.

[@secretbassrigs]

TIP: Take advantage of gift certificate discounts! Copperstate Tackle had 20% off gift certificate sale not long ago, and I bought a couple 68 Huddies with 10% first timer discount. OH YEAH! P.S. I'm injecting a batch of silicone stick worms as I type this, just for you Hank! the flukes are already done and I'm going to try to pour some 5 inch Angling Ai 5G swimbaits in a better formula of platinum silicone for you too! They'll be in the mail this week!

[@BassGeek]

Great tip and Thank you!

[@bobwilliamson2828]

Heck that Huddleston’s bigger than most fish I catch! LOL! #100PWS

[@BassGeek]

Thanks man.

[@andybales7318]

Older video, but the 8" easy shiner from keitech with a weighted beast hook is a FANTASTIC cold water big soft swimbait...much better for cold water than the bigger wobble of the other keitechs

[@BassGeek]

I need to find those. I havn't seen them.

[@TheFishCatcher]

You can definitely catch big bass with that hudd just need to be ok with not catching anything for a few days weeks or months..

[@BassGeek]

It's a dedication technique.

[@poppy.fishing]

If my boat was running, I would love to be running around casting all of them. #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

It's fun.

[@Army_Outdoors_88N]

#100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

What up Army!?

[@robertmonroe2665]

The only large swimbait I have used is the magdraft. The ones you showed here are definitely big ones. Also about 2 minutes into the video I was cringing because I thought your spot lock was going to grind into the rocks on the bank lol 🎣🔥 #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

LOL It did. These mountains and GPS just don't always work right.

[@LowBrowFishing]

#100percentwatchsquad I haven't been able to throw big swimbaits a lot this winter because of how windy it's been. Even in the Bass Buggy (my big pontoon boat) I have to stay closer to the bank because I get blown around like a leaf! I'm gonna get you on my Bass Buggy one day, Hank, and we're gonna catch some toads at a private trophy bass lake I fish.

[@BassGeek]

I like a pontoon now.

[@bassmedic]

that's a massive keitech. i love my old bb1 pro. not a fan of the new design.

[@BassGeek]

The new BB1 is limited.

[@greenpighunter6930]

Dip those Hudd tails into boiling water to improve tail movement at truly slow retrieve speeds.

[@BassGeek]

That’s a sweet idea!

[@chriscurtis8577]

[@BassGeek]

Thanks it's a big bait time of year.
