[@clarynick]

Looks like a critter down there eating something off the bottom of the lake!!! I’m just a poor country boy, I cut metal coat hangers up for the weights!!! Thanks for the help and keep them coming!!

Thank you

@OttDeFoeFishing your mild personality is great

[@TOEWSKANE1988]

I've had good results throwing the neko rig and appreciate your videos on the subject. One thing I dont see in any videos on the neko is the correct retrieve. I tend to keep my rod tip high and twitch or pulse the bait every once in a while. I've seen one video where the gentlemen kept a low rod, close to the water. He incorporated twitches a few times and said he got better hookups this way. Keeping a tighter line to the hook. Am I better off fishing it with a high rod, or should I incorporate the lower to the water, tighter line approach? Ty for your time.

Great stuff Ott

[@PhillipYates-j9s]

Good content. Thanks.

[@BakeroutdoorsTN]

Have not tried the neko rig yet however to me it is "somewhat" similar to the shaky head which I love. Thanks for the videos Ott, keep them coming!

[@5.7.0bassin2]

Definitely try it I don’t even throw shakey heads anymore lose to many with a neko you can fish the same rig for days if you have a good band but it hardly gets hung up like a shakey head

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

It is. I like it because I think it’s more weedless than a shakey.

[@BakeroutdoorsTN]

@@OttDeFoeFishing I'll be sure to give it a shot one day. Hope you have a great 2025 season!

[@ronstewart8971]

Ott you are awesome! Great Christian Man! thank you

[@DavidSmith-Samluke36]

Ott, I looked on the Bass Pro website and can't find the Magnum cut tail worm like the one you tested just the 4.5 inch worm. ??? Is it discontinued or not available yet? Great video and good luck next week.

[@JDsSwimbaitBassin]

Love these videos brotha!! Tight lines and Jesus is Lord!!

[@ZZ430T56]

They all look great. I will have to try the cut tail. I use very old brass screws my grandpa has jars of for weights. Never come out.

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

Good idea!

[@rick4649]

How do you keep the nail weight in the bait. The only way I can get it to stay in is to superglue it. Love the Neko rig.

[@jsean13]

3/32 nail weight is my favorite weight for Neko

[@josephammons7309]

Awesome

[@Mags120fish1]

Bass Pro Magnum Cut Tail is no longer available. Any idea if they are going to offer this again?

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

I hate to hear that! I’m not sure.

[@TurdFerguson1000]

You throw the neko in winter?

[@FishinDr]

Even more interesting he has his pool open in winter. 😂

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

I don’t usually.

[@OttDeFoeFishing]

And this was filmed a while back! 😆. It’s froze over currently!!!

[@coachmatt6735]

Fin-eke = Finek? I thought they were going for a stylized spelling of "finicky".
