[@bobbystiles7473]

Thank you for sharing. Some fisherman die with there secrets. You are really are helping fisherman have better odds on catching that fish of a life time.

[@OliverNgy]

My man 👊

[@haydenroth609]

This video is genius. So many ideas that I never thought of that I can’t wait to translate to other baits

[@sergiorodriguez889]

Brotha...man!! that was a real pucker of a moment when she threw the hook!! You tried homie! Kudos 🤙

[@ralphknappiii8746]

Just pick up a few megga bass dark sleepers after seeing and watching them in action at your seminar I had to get my hands on some.. thanks for sharing your knowledge.. nice meeting you

[@OliverNgy]

Glad you like them!

[@ballzybaits4414]

Loving this channels content Oliver. BBD is great but this one to me feels more personal.

[@OliverNgy]

Awesome, that's good to hear and why I wanted to branch off with my own PERSONAL channel so I can just be ME full time :)

[@Fischize]

Yo, Oliver! I just received my Defiant 210 Ghost Carp this afternoon. Can’t wait to get it out on the water and try it out. I actually had to look up the video on how to rig the two jig hooks that were in the package. I’ll 100% post a video on my channel when I catch a toad on the 210. Cheers!

[@OliverNgy]

Enjoy and have fun!!!!

[@burs_bobby_iaga]

Definitely needed this video as I’m transitioning to swim baits.

[@FishcastAngling]

Great breakdown of rigging etc! I just got my first defiant- a 210 in perch in the mail yesterday. I’ve purchased a couple line throughs over the years that I couldn’t run thick 100 plus pound leader through the bait very well and I’m glad the defiant will pass 100 pound mono through no problem. (I run thick leader like that for pike or for multi species bass/pike waters a lot of times). Also glad defiant has northern baitfish type colors also like perch and Cisco that aren’t always easy to find with other companies.

[@OliverNgy]

I'm looking forward to getting back to the midwest to throw that new perch and carp color around!

[@alexmar_5]

Just bought my swimbait rod today, beginner at swimbait. This video has a lot of information thanks bro.

[@OliverNgy]

Enjoy the journey and the process!!!

[@agentsmithfishing2207]

Awesome video Oliver. Loved the detail man

[@OliverNgy]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@danielallegretti6789]

Can you do a video on "making the right cast" or as close as you can get

[@mattboast]

Attention to detail is unreal 🙌🏻 preparation is key obviously late to the table as most of terminal tackle is out of stock ! 😢

[@keithallpress7532]

Great video I love your creativity and problem solving.

[@kenmccarthyfishing]

I have been Dying to see you rig it this way because I want to rig mine the same way,I've never done crimping or sleeves but I do have the PERFECT!!! video I can watch over and over and I won't skimp on the crimping pliers and my Defiant came marked as 232 9.75 6oz 🤣😂

[@OliverNgy]

Keep killing it my friend!!! Looking forward to seeing you continue to catch monsters!

[@bturbo4812]

I bought the 210 and it swinning on it side. Tryed different lines. Any thoughts. I want to love this

[@OliverNgy]

Have you tried to offset with nail weights? I just haven't had any baits that couldn't be fixed with slight adjustments. How about rigging with bottom hooks?

[@trent7700]

Oliver,What issues have you had with the big Mega Bass swim bait design?

[@wjz5014]

Unreal knowledge drop, thank you as always 👊🏻

[@quoctho2105]

Good vid! Been beating my brains trying to find good replacement hooks to use cause I'm putting these baits in front of Giant Snakeheads.

[@OliverNgy]

That sounds epic!!!

[@reelin_n_amillion5317]

Super dope bro! Thanks for the tips ✌🏻👍🏻

[@nameformyname]

Crimpers will be my new tool. Geese, do you do this for a living!? 👊👍👍✊. Fist pump, two thumps up, and props!! Or something like that hahaha.

[@bigBallaStout69]

Thoughts on using heavy braid instead of wire to connect your treble on the back?

[@OliverNgy]

Too much of a pain in the ass to get lengths right and nowhere near as reliable as 135lb wire. No thanks lol

[@idahok9trapper470]

Been subscribed to both channels for awhile now and love them both . The wealth of information you share is amazing , and you my Friend are a Beast with a rod and reel . Have learned a bunch from your channel and just wanted to say thanks .

[@OliverNgy]

Appreciate the kind words and the support! I just really like trying to get better at catching these things 🤗

[@quinnmuller8233]

Besides the line thru system, why do you prefer Defiants over Hudds or Magnums? Or are they just not logically comparable because they have different applications?

[@OliverNgy]

Fishability through cover, hookup percentage, and landing ratio.

[@galva777tx]

Excellent rigging info. 👍🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

[@OliverNgy]

Glad it was helpful!

[@richshackelford5793]

Great stuff Oliver

[@OliverNgy]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@fffishing7572]

I'm new to big swimbait game. And I just caught 2 of the biggest in my life a 6.41 and a 7lber , been really enjoying your videos. If u could give some tips for big swimbaits in michigan thatd be awesome

[@OliverNgy]

Welcome aboard! Big Fish concepts and philosophies are the SAME regardless of where we apply them.

[@bradallen7247]

Does the 210 and 247 come with slit in top with the tube in it?

[@OliverNgy]

Yes. All models do.

[@friendlyguy005]

What lbs test leader do u used when using those hard bait n soft bait?

[@OliverNgy]

Used 80lb braid to 40lb fluorocarbon leader successfully today!

[@michaelrowley5363]

Do you run similar stinger setup on magdraft and magslowl??

[@OliverNgy]

Greta question, no typically just a single treble on the stock rig or a single beast hook weedless for me.

[@kaiboshi]

When fishing these baits for largemouth in waters that also have pike or musky do you run a wire leader or do you stick with heavy fluoro? I've been running 130fc like you suggested a while back with some success (targeting musky but catching largemouth instead) but it's kind of a pain to work with compared to the 7 strand wire. I've broken lighter leaders on pike/musky teeth while fishing for largemouth and wonder if there is possibly a universal solution.

[@OliverNgy]

I stick with the 130lb flouro. As you've seen from your bycatch, the bass will still eat it. But at that point I'm truly focused on the musky or pike

[@WesternFishingOutdoors]

When you going to release that music for the video

[@bwcafishing]

Knowledge is king! 🤘

[@OliverNgy]

knowledge earned through EXPERIENCE is king my man!

[@Tbowie13]

Got a few ordered and my Musky gear to rig up the stinger treble...I'm gonna give it a whirl! Your videos cost me lots of $ bro....😆!

[@OliverNgy]

Have fun with it!

[@richiekamtan9209]

“Frugal” *laughs at own joke* I caught that. Lmaoooo 😂

[@Tbowie13]

Yeah, frugal says the guy who's videos got me to buy a Levante an Orochixx and a Destroyer with Tatula 300 reels and 8, I slide 185's, and last night 3 defiant 210's. This is in the last month to month and a half. But buy the smaller super glue, cause we're frugal around here! 😆 Ok Mr. Ngy, I'll take your word on that...lol. In all seriousness, I'm loving my Destroyer Tequila Baccarac, the Laviathans are still backordered. Fishing these bigger baits is so much easier when someone tells ya what to use...I've been having a ball!

[@kenmccarthyfishing]

🏆🏆I love this video,incredible rigging,good luck everyone 🏆🏆

[@robbiebrown4653]

With so many variables which swimbaits soft would you throw in clear clear water??? Vegas dreams...

[@OliverNgy]

one you have confidence in. Match your local forage and GO.

[@bronzewilldo1657]

The show goes on haha 🤙🏼🎣🎞

[@striperhunter-ic2wt]

Great stuff

[@yingyang803]

Just ordered a couple of the 210s while watching this

[@OliverNgy]

Have a blast Ying!

[@quoctho2105]

What crimper are you using here?

[@OliverNgy]

I think this is a Pline one

I appreciate the information. Thank you.

[@howardkwan5694]

Good job 👍🏻

[@rydermains7171]

you da man Oliver!

[@OliverNgy]

Just want to see more people catching the biggest bass of their life! Hopefully that cuts down on the number of Richards on the water LOL

[@jakewatson6854]

Thank you so much for the breakdown on the defiant rigs! I am going to make the investment soon! When do you prefer to throw the white color? I tend to fish pretty dirty water in the southeast, and I feel like that's probably a good choice.

[@OliverNgy]

White is one of the most underrated colors for all kinds of conditions.

[@nickcosta88]

Class in session...

[@OliverNgy]

thanks for tuning in!

[@nickcosta88]

Oliver Ngy thanks for the class brotha...Be safe...

[@bapojean5981]

First off thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. You are obviously a skilled fisherman. But what is with you flopping most of your bass on the boat deck? You have to know that its not good for the fish. Is that just not a priority for you?

[@OliverNgy]

Thanks for the kind message. Here's my question, where do you draw the line? Bouncing a difficult to fool and successfully land a fish using whatever method I feel is my best chance? Is it where we drive hooks into their mouths? I don't purposely put fish I intend to release through extra stress. I will do whatever I deem is sufficient to land that fish. Besides, seadek is much better for them than carpet. Have a great season Mr. Jean. Thanks for tuning in.

[@bapojean5981]

@@OliverNgy Hmm. I didnt know about sea deck. I wasnt expecting that you have carpet. I was wrong about that. My goal is to handle that fish in a way that allows it to continue living close to how it was before it was caught. You catch way bigger bass than most, and nobody is flipping a 10lb plus off the deck. It just looks like it has to cause damage to a animal that is used to living in almost zero "G".

[@OliverNgy]

@@bapojean5981 they're hardier than you give them credit for. Catch and release as a practice would be a lot less successful with largemouth bass than It is if they were as fragile as a striped bass or a trout. I respect your way of handling and treating fish, if you've seen our videos you've seen us push to use a weigh bag to minimize the stress and damage to them. I care about their well being very much. Have a great season.
