Breaking Down The Googan Squad Contender! | Swimbait Bass Fishing Tips

LakeForkGuy, Flair, and Westin Smith are here to break down the new Googan Squad Contender swimbait and how you can use to catch some GIANT bass this spring and throughout the year.
🎣 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿: gokarls.com/lU...
The Contender is 2-jointed, 3-piece bodied swimbait; painted with deliciously tasty details and features a unique, soft-touch rubberized matte finish. The rotating hook hangers are included to help keep your mondo from shaking the hooks. The Contender excels with a slow, steady retrieve. But don’t be afraid to experiment with a stop and go cadence, or even quick twitches of your rod tip. These retrieves can trigger wary bass. Pick up the larger Contender and go target your new PB! Or, if you care more about catching numbers of bass, opt for the downsized 4.5” version. The Jr. Contender excels in smaller bodies of water or where the bass are under fishing pressure.

Just got my first "big" swimbaits fish last night in the ca delta on the bone colored contender. Those fish were also my pb stripers and the swivelled hooks definitely did their job holding on to those fish. They also hold up very well to large rocks when they come flying out and smash face first into a rock bank and come up with not a single scratch I was impressed. Also with the constant snagging and ripping out that occurs in the delta, it held up super well to that too and the hooks r still like new too great quality swimbait and it's performance is perfect. I'm just happy it's finally swimbait season so i can finally start using them.

[@shyank_life2899]

Great lookin baits. All of them. But that lil white one looks like its gonna slay em! Imll have to try and get me that one first and try em out. Never had the chance to fish with anything like this. Well done. U can really tell the quality in the CatchCo/Googan lures.

[@lumpkinangler3613]

Have y’all fixed the issues with the hooks popping off?

[@kevinxaysongkham8076]

man says "clapping on them cheeks"

[@lowfiep]

Except mine snapped off at the little tie on, tied it on casted it and the tie on stayed on but the bait flew about 500 yards into the middle of the lake

[@thomasrico13]

[@kameronmayes7761]

Muscle for sure

[@TheOutdoorDude]

Just dropped $300 on Googan jigs and spinnerbaits at Shopkarls.com , I going to buy a whole mess of these swimbaits but not yet...the wife will kill me.

[@Carson-Roth]

The metal bar broke off on my back hook of my baby bass jr. contender! Any clue how to fix this

[@gaigebee6004]

FITH!

[@comfortablynumb9342]

LFG sniffed that fish like he wanted to inhale it.

[@ronlindsey5295]

Nice bait but as a poor bank fisherman I can't afford $20 a pop and loose it to a snag.

[@datruthhurts3984]

Of course rackley gets the big..hammer

Bro was holding fish horizontally by the jaw

[@CopenhagenBlack420]

Did a DJ edit this video or what’s the deal? Music was ridiculously loud for no reason.

[@timcarter9146]

Sniffing the mouth of the fish is the weirdest thing ever😊

[@donaldwolff1066]

First

[@randallrandolph4977]

Why does it seem that all Googan squad fishers video fish? 😢cheating “ live scope” your not blind

[@bolawdean]

Couldn’t make it through the whole video because of manufactured hype of the dudes in the video, same thing that usually prevents me from buying anything googan 🤦🏻‍♂️
