I remember somebody showing me about the crooked rigging 20+ years ago when i was a kid. You just reminded me of it. Whatever i remember being taught regarding it kind of all just came back to me now. This video couldn't have came at the best time since i just starting making that worm yesterday. a 6" BOT worm. Subscribed, thanks again!

[@darylalba9052]

I remember you and your dad fishing tournaments together when you were a young teen at SML. I'm from Salem and have fished there since the mid 70's. Thanks for the tip and good luck!

[@drudow]

Great info! Thank you!

[@bdigrino6809]

I am a 70 ye old bass fisherman and I have seen lots of techniques come and go, but young man, every time you introduce a new twist or some new info, you live up to the hype. I can see why you are a successful tour angler and you have a personality to go along with it. I have learned something from every one of your videos. Best of luck with MLF!

[@raymondbradford4086]

Thanks... I appreciate the advice

[@MikeFosterOutdoors]

Great tip David. Thank you!

[@lgbass]

Great tip. Thank you David.

[@Funboy870]

What an awesome technique! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@davidhill86]

Great instructions, thanks

[@keithwalker1780]

I've been fishing floating worms for at least 25 years. I keep a rod rigged for floaters year round. I've caught more than a handful of heavyweight bass on floating worms. It's truly a deadly presentation when fished in the right place. Never put one on crooked except the times I may have enjoyed to many refreshments. Lol. May just have to give that a try. That side to side action is pretty much what a weightless sinko does naturally.

[@flavordave6344]

Love this, super hyped cant wait to try this weekend!

[@gtflyer]

Ahhh, this just confirms what I've been doing for years, putting bends in my worms when using weightless floating worms. Thanks for sharing D.D..

[@brianbell1851]

Absolutely my favorite way to fish over the past couple years, great tip, thank you!

[@Shiloh3498]

Thanks for spilling the beans. I'll give it a try up here in MN.

[@jefferyholland]

Great stuff David. Can't wait to try it out.

[@clintallard912]

Learned years ago to rig the hook deeper into the nose of the worm so it threads o yo the line and it will bend when you twitch it and makes the worm dart side around pretty good too

[@BassingGalBarbara]

Thank you for the tips David! 🤜💥🤛🎣

[@wilsonflanders878]

Very informative thank you

[@garylukas3476]

Love it. Gonna start using it here in Florida. My favorite local place to fish has a ton of logs and lay downs. I’ll keep ya posted. 👊🏼👊🏼

[@dillonhocutt888]

Awesome information never would have thought about it that way

[@TN-Vols-Fan]

Hey Dave, Thanks for the floating worm video! I haven't fished one in years. Great job.

[@vidsoutmike]

You're spot-on with that technique. I've been using the Creme Scoundrel like this for most of my life. Great video D.

[@frankgasaway395]

Thanks David - Great video

[@jebar01]

Thoroughly enjoyed your video!! Thank-You very much, Jim.

[@eddiehawk8861]

Great information

[@robertsharp1214]

Great info Man,,!!!🎣

[@johnmclaughlin7805]

Nice to see how to properly work and rig the worm! I've always worked it to high in the water. Can't wait to try it out this weekend!

[@jimb6683]

Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge! Caught the bass fishing bug last year and working hard to get better at it and rely on people like you (multiple time AOY) to help me shorten the learning curve. Went out to Briery late yesterday and caught 4 with the biggest being 4lbs 6oz. Used a green pumpkin senko rigged with pointed end on the knot and a heavy kink in the worm.

[@skylerbroussard4505]

Thanks for doing these types of videos. Some of these things I was already aware of but some of the little details I hadn't thought about. Thanks a bunch

[@romebranson3266]

Thanks I love you vids I always learn something 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@4ReelFishing]

Thanks Dudley!!

[@maf1077]

Great vid! Gonna have to give this technique a try.

[@wesleycurrin1457]

Best DD video I have watched. The video moved along well. Kudos to DD for reading to comments

[@randycarter4487]

Awesome video's I love watching

[@scotthousewright4234]

Great tip from professor

[@willperryman4559]

Keep Growing and Teaching DD 🙌🎣🍀🎣🙏😇🙏

[@edpelkey7798]

Thanks David, I have not thrown the floating form for 20 years. It was unbelievable how good it was in shallow backwaters. I love to throw something different. Thanks again 🤫

[@MichaelDavisOutdoorAdventures]

Awesome video. I've fished this technique for 45 years. Lol. Awesome

[@greyhunter9287]

This was very helpful! Thanks David! I'm actually going fishing tomorrow and I'm excited to try this out as I've never used a floating worm.

[@reeltraditionsoutdoors]

Great info man. Really appreciate it.

[@melissamessmer6544]

thanks for jogging my memory used them in farm ponds growing up started with the pre rigged spinner worm then progressed to the floating worm absolutely slayed them for years

[@colobisman6132]

I used to fish a floating worm back in the 80's. Now that I've gotten back into fishing, I'm going to start using your technique. Hurry up spring.

[@robertchadwick1552]

Good lesson there. Thanks for showing us how it's done. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@tommierice9646]

Good info DD !!!

[@dustinpitts2741]

I'm gonna try this tomor, great way of showing us the difference in the water;;;;;;

[@MrDroidSmith]

I just have to thank you for taking the time to show this technique. The video was concise to the point and it showed exactly what we needed to do. Again, thank you!

[@MrDroidSmith]

So I caught a nice bass floating a Z-Man bubble gum Finesse Wormz. I gave you a shout out on Fishbrain. Fishbrain is a nice app, but your lures are not listed on it. I wonder if you can do something about that?

[@seanpiscitelli1587]

Awesome video! Big help!

[@bradbrown6665]

I am a dedicated plastic worm fisherman, and this has been very eye opening to me. good video.

[@jodudley3228]

Fisherman take notes! Great video ❤

[@RogerTemplon]

Fantastic video. You give more technique details than any other float worm video that I have seen, and I've seen a bunch. You bring the juice !

[@lynnlange488]

A fella by the name of Bob Uhler did this technique at Lake Tawakoni back in the 70’s. Very effective! Great vlog!

[@jdean1851]

EPIC" from Idaho! Thanks!

[@parkeradair2461]

I shared it with my brother we both fish tournaments and maybe this will help us. Thank from Arkansas!!!!

[@LargeMouthLunkin]

Awesome, can't wait until those rods come out. Great video!!!

[@jimkingsland1645]

Very well presented with complete information, including the lines, hook sizes and rigging demo. Thanks also for the shhh tips! Gonna try it out!’

[@tanksjourney1031]

It work flawlessly 🔥, I been using the floating worm wrong all this time, THANK YOU!!!!

[@joemontana1956]

I am gonna try that crooked technique this weekend. Thank YOU !

[@codyphillips977]

Grew up throwing the pre rigged deal from Walmart ... and smoked em. Once I “learned” about bass fishing I thought it was ridiculous. Crazy

[@derrickhouse7063]

I've never used a floating worm, but I'm on my way to the lake to go try it. Thanks for the tip.

[@mattwest6669]

Thanks I never thought about the bend.

[@randybarger8649]

Love your vids dude keeps me going during these crazy days and taking the Ranger to the lake need tourneys to start soon but like this time to learn new things and try

[@richardwood1316]

Great information and presentation. Thanks D. I’m 77 and used to throw the S WORM a lot. Just started again and it all came back to me quickly. Was using it straight to cover a lot of grass and caught em that way. Appreciate your details and I’ll be throwing it through the summer 👍

[@locodragon28]

Love your videos man makes me feel like a pro

[@jeffbarrett3236]

Great video David!!

[@leannemotley8982]

Good video 👍 I will give this a try the next time I go fishing.

[@lukegarcia7164]

As always, you the man!! Keep up the great work buddy and may God keep you and your family safe in this crazy time of chaos. 🤙💪🙏👍🏻😉

[@jasonclauss267]

Great vid!

[@PerrynBecky]

Loved seeing that worm in action and the bass at the end. Just subscribed.

[@georgeadcock2347]

Love the bubblegum floating worm...

[@bobbrown9277]

Thanks David for this video.guys like you are truly awesome. You guys help us beginners so much thank you an BE SAFE AN GOD BLESS.

[@Lou-Lou-BelleFishing]

I really enjoyed that especially the demo. Incidentally, I have two of the proficiency rods 7'2" M/H, I love them.

[@rangerbull]

Brought back memories, thanks. Back 55 years ago we wanted the worm to just float and tick the weeds. So we carried syringes with us to inject a little air in tail. We wanted to regulate the fall rate. If we carried syringes today we might get some odd looks. Thanks again

[@DavidDudley]

That's funny

[@AlergicToSnow]

You can still get a worm blower that doesn’t look like a syringe

[@greatlakezgirl649]

@@AlergicToSnow yes, they have them at Walmart

[@fish8five646]

I like the techniques you mention. The way I rig floating worms is on a light wire straight shank worm hook (owner preferably), and rig the worm all the way up the shank with just the hook exposed, pretty much like a jig. Twitch it across a drop off or some structure and you’ll catch em. It’s got a snake like action.

[@wrightjaw]

Awesome video

[@johnblossom8447]

I have to try this.

[@CumminsN14DBest]

GREAT VIDEO Dawg!! I Just *"Liked & Subscribed!!"* Thanks Brotha, Keep'em Coming!

[@mikebuniva6251]

Thanks David! Great tips!! If I catch a bass Saturday 5lbs or greater, I’m dedicating it to you. Thanks for all you do.

[@DavidDudley]

Tag me on IG if you do!

[@SlayMiaGirl_6]

Here in Central Missouri I watched bass patrolling stumps/rocks on a warm day last week. Had some success with drop shotting a roboworm but kept spooking them. Heading out late Monday to try bubblegum and menthiolate both described ways along with wacky rigged! Excited to try it out!

[@ohiobassmaster.]

Thanks DD

[@arfishing4310]

It’s been my go to bait in spring for years

[@johnnymassengale6275]

Discovered that bend technique several years ago by accident when I rigged it different. Another trick I do is thread the worm up the line so the hook is about 2 more inches down the worm. Sounds weird but it really works good.

[@funkymojo111]

Yup, same.

[@emmittsutton3561]

you prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!

[@rogelioanakin759]

@Emmitt Sutton instablaster =)

[@emmittsutton3561]

@Rogelio Anakin thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out atm. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@emmittsutton3561]

@Rogelio Anakin It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you saved my account !

[@larryculiver1690]

I have been using a floating worm for ever it's a great bait been using them scents the late 70s

[@outdoorswithsamuel1865]

I’ve been following you for a while David another great video thank you for those tips...✌🏽

[@DavidDudley]

Thanks for the follow Samuel

[@chrisblank279]

good stuff man!

[@terryclowers4433]

With all this Corona hanging around would like thank you and all the pros 😊👍 for sharing your experience 🐟

[@controlavirus9839]

You surely don’t buy into that bs to ya Or at least not a year later. It’s proven now it was all a hoax. Gov is not doctors. They silenced real Practicing doctors and ordered their agendas They care nothing about our health. Look no further than abortion.

[@eddiemook84]

Big D yeah my dad used those pre rigged worm harnesses and hook me across my forehead I was maybe 3 I’m 57 now. Wish I had a buck for every hook I’ve yanked out of somewhere. Lol That thing looks pretty awesome I like the big bend less forward movement, almost like a walking bait. God Bless and peace

[@SuperCoyotecaller]

Great video and great details on why you do it the way you do. Thank you. Ps your my favorite pro You Tuber.

[@bigbassballah9876]

Thanks bro

[@gpharned]

Thanks so much David. I used to use a swivel to counter the line twist. Do you? And OUTTRO

[@ziggyblue782]

Dang, I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time! Thanks for the tips!

[@TonyHookedonVanlife]

I learned about the floating worm from an episode of Roland Martin's tv show back in the 90s. He called it "the bubble gum worm technique" & to this very day I've got some bubble gum pink Zoom Trick worms in my tackle box. 👍

[@guywithagoprofishingshow3011]

So i remember passin on very few of your episodes last year,but this was 1.so i just watched & thank god i did.had NO IDEA(but makes sense)the importance of rigging.gonna throw it on exact rig cuz i bought your "sweetie"
