How to fish a WTD style surface lure for bass

Here's a new short video I put together recently, and whilst the title is rather grandly "How to fish a WTD style surface lure for bass", again it's very much along the lines of the last video I put up - me learning how to shoot some video and audio on my own and then cutting it together in what is hopefully a coherent and not too boring way. If it helps any if you out then that's great, but I would imagine that most of you here are perfectly adept at fishing a WTD surface lure like the Patchinko.

[@devonangler3781]

Nice video mate, thanks for the tips

[@henrygilbey302]

thank you, most kind

[@patomalley1744]

Thanks for that Henry, I always wondered how you did the WTD retrieve 👍

[@henrygilbey302]

no worries, glad it helped

[@billybass4189]

I do struggle a bit with wtd lures, sometimes i absolutely nail the action but other times it fails miserably. Prob 4 out of 10 retrieves results in desired action and i honestly think it's down to co-ordination of winding speed and imparted twitching. Will try to master it better this year.

[@henrygilbey302]

once you get it 100% it's like riding a bike, hope it goes well

[@mattdenney49]

Nice video Henry, any plans for longer ones ? I used to love your tv show.

[@henrygilbey302]

Thanks Matt. I am slowly getting into this whole "filming myself" thing and I will see where it goes. Brave man for watching those old shows of mine, thank you!

[@mattdenney49]

@@henrygilbey302 they were really good, lots of information and plenty of fish. Made me laugh a lot too “ahh your mother was a man” when you lost a fish, I still say it now when I lose one 😂

Hi I'm new to ott fishing my question is about which rod to use I have 4 Hto Nebular 2'4 extra fast 7-30gr Hto lure game 8'6 8-35gr Savage gear B/whacker 8'6 15-40gr And just recently brought a Maximus High Energy Z 2'4 10-30g fast action tip

[@antjohnson4236]

This is something I've been trying to master for a while, I only own 1 patchinko as I was to master the technique before buying more, I always manage to get a couple a sideways movements then I end up somehow managing to get the lure to dive under water, where am I going wrong with my technique and also does the fact I'm using mono not help?

[@henrygilbey302]

I don't personally like mono very much for lure fishing, and especially not for surface work

[@antjohnson4236]

@@henrygilbey302 is this due to the stretch in it?

“ lure watcher” -Storm. 👁👁 lmao

[@henrygilbey302]
