SWINGING JIGS - The BEST Way To Catch EARLY SUMMER BASS!

[@akilidebrady3785]

Humpday! No better day of the week to fish and relieve stress. Thanks Matt and Tim for getting my humpday started off right!

[@midwestfischerman]

First!#️⃣1️⃣🥇🏆🎣

[@toddbloxham6041]

Haha. Aloha!

[@brohain612]

I take it that this technique isn’t for bank fishermen. At least not in south FL, there’s grass everywhere

[@barrywells8493]

I kinda jumped the gun on this technique and after the June baits video went to TW and placed an order and well I did not understand that I would not work in grass…o well I’m sure I will find a hard bottom someday.

[@dontnonowuno9953]

Water clarity i usually fish is less then a foot..still recommend this technique?

[@midwestfischerman]

Hey Matt and Tim, would you guys mind doing a compare/contrast video covering the Tokyo Rig, Jika Rig, and the Free Rig? These rigs seem similar, and I'd like to see your process to decide which one to use when. I am drawn most to the Jika Rig given the areas I fish, but I'd like to hear your thoughts about where each of these similar rigs works best.

[@miltonalbright1606]

Matt milt here where can you get that bait you said get it in June bug and go fish

[@toddpossum]

Thanks!

[@gunadoo]

Is there a finesse head that you recommend? The smallmouth might have a bit of a hard time eating a 4/5/0

[@gunadoo]

nevermind lol i looked in the description

[@lannyseals2084]

I picked up on this technique last year when you talked about it when you were out fishing it and I been kicking myself in rear end every since for not picking it up sooner bc like you said it is killer! Thanks Matt for the inspiration to pickup and fish this!

[@WalterWhiterH2O]

Moved to indiana on May 1st. Spent 3 weeks trying everything with no luck. Started watching your channel, i havent gotten skunked a single day since. By far the most helpful fishing channel ive watched. Everyone else wants you to watch then catch fish. This guys wants YOU to go catch the fish. Big difference in education quality.

[@mjk934]

Great video Matt, im the original owner of Xzone, I love the Adrenaline craw,proud to say I developed 309, it's a killer color .cheers.Mark.

[@HanSoloxcs]

Trying to sleep but thinking about fishing lol this ain’t helping

[@kevinhill5596]

I am there with ya!!!! 👍

[@VinceNiergarth]

Great work guys!

[@dgatz1247]

Great video. I must say, I live here in Florida, and I catch em in the grass with a wobble head. I use the Strike King wobble head and the key is it has a pointed head to get through the grass better. I call it my weedless Florida crank bait. You pull it through just like you would a speed worm. It works absolutely great. And like you said....it has a penchant for getting big big fish to bite it. Try it in the grass. Just make sure you use the pointed head.

[@ryankelly1846]

I literally picked those up today for that exact reason haha glad to know it works!

[@jtotherog]

I really appreciate giving us multiple applications for rods. It helps to shed some light on which rods I should be using. Even if I don’t have the exact rods you are using. Love the video!!

[@michaelloucks4448]

Hey Matt thanks Alot for this great video I live in Missouri and these lakes are very rocky with lay downs brush piles. Hey Matt some bass fisherman the other day told me that he doesn't use wobble head's and I got in my car and said to myself that's not smart. Because Matt we have the perfect terrain for this type of technique. Hey Matt I this has nothing to do the video but what do you think about the new curado rod's tell me your thoughts I'm going to buy new rods and I don't want to make the mistakes I made in the past I use to spend 300 dollars from 5 different companies and I was not happy kistler, ark , just to name a few . Cheap reel seats not enough guides, and the main thing was I just felt the rods were not balanced properly. But as far as guides the new curados have fazlit incertis and I think I'll be fine with my casting distance. I mean from the reviews I've read people are saying these new curados are a good buy I just want to hear your opinion because I really respect you and Tim's opinion on equipment or anything else for that matter. I can't believe I'm going to go back to a Japanese company but it's a fact of life they make high quality rod's. Just please Matt when you get the time please let me know what you think. GOD bless you and Tim's families your pal fisherman Mike from Missouri.

[@kevinhill5596]

I would like it if you could show us CLOSE UPS of your lures and hooks so that we could see how you are hooking them up. This would be helpful to me personally. Thanks I love your videos! 👍

[@ehronw7565]

It's the same as any EWG Texas rig if you want to look that up.

[@Zanzabar5]

I feel like these don't apply to 10 - 15 foot visibility rezos. Doesn't look natural enough.

[@Mdkayakangler]

Awesome video I was literally thinking about a wobble head right before this video popped up what do you think about using the perfect pitch for this technique?

[@xDx0xUxGx]

35 fish in one trip must be nice... I haven't caught 35 fish so far this year....

[@chrisrus53]

This is the video I've needed!! I just added some of these to my tackle box to try this year.

[@amorton94]

I bought some of these a few years ago and have literally never tied one on. I'm just too afraid of snagging and breaking off. Doesn't help that there aren't many rocky lakes here.

[@ptcscagu2878]

Awesome Matt. One question about this. How would it work on highland lakes like we have in east Tn?

[@mikebanks6704]

Any way you can do a video about weighted bladed hooks and good swimbaits to throw on them and where n when to fish them? I've had good luck on them here in New York but I could stand to learn a thing or 2 about when n where lol

[@Just_A_Name14]

Jig. The only tool in my tackle box I’ve yet to catch a bass on smh. I’m not all that mad. I only fish from the bank anyways

[@robertferrell4785]

I’m gonna try this

[@alanstein9722]

Can you please show how to tie the knot you use for braid to fluorocarbon. Thanks

[@cc-ty3gg]

Would this technique work well with a big ribbon tail worm?

[@mckeannaegle5407]

is this a good technique for pond fishing or would you inly do this out of a boat. i would love to get your opinion on this.

[@syberjr]

What’s the rod length and action on the megabsss?

[@miketurenne7204]

You can not can catch them twelve months or any months without rocks!

[@fish2much12]

What about Zman GOAT?

[@joeb7508]

Does the wobble head also work on bass with two eyes?😂

[@davelerner8461]

Great stuff Matt as always, thanks!

[@Jeff-rn5tr]

So does this technique work as Great for Smallies too??? TIA for Replying

[@cc-ty3gg]

Not too big, like an 8 inch ribbon tail..

[@williamrimmer802]

Always informative!!!!!!! Dirty jigs is a new favorite of mine now!!!!! Thanks buddy!!!

[@johnchaney8967]

Does this work on rivers just curious

[@bear_in_the_woods]

Great technique! Can I add something? I don't mean to step on toes but it's something I've found with smallmouth especially. They tend to pick it up and swim with it towards you. Keep reeling until you feel them go one direction or the other and then sweep your hookset and they won't come off. I also love the Owner hooks. Best hook on the market by a LONG shot. (no I don't work for Owner. I wish I did!)

[@trendinmckinney519]

Just picked up this technique recently, and it has been money for me! Thank you guys for sharing these tips. I've been a huge fan for a long time!

[@rodneychandler82]

Got the Adrenaline craw in Junebug tip from one of your Vid's a while back . Cracked some Tank's on it 👌

[@brkyq]

I'm still wrecking the smallmouth on the Matt Allen swimbait light wire and a 3.8 Fat Keitech. That same swimbait works great on the wobble head. And way more fun than throwing a drop shot.

[@kylemayer8486]

This year I've pretty much only thrown the biospawn vile bug on a 1/2oz crusher kyle monti swing head. A gambler ez swimmer will come in to play more next week up north in michigan.

[@ChorizoPig2]

Decoy DS-13 switch head will allow you to put a tungsten swing head on a super line hook. It's also the best independent head design. No goofy twist lock or spit rings.

[@karlanderson5137]

First i love your channel more help than you could imagine big thanks ? Im the guy with one pole i can switch from plastic worms to cranck bait love the topwater blobber frog walkingbaits and i use a spinning reel. What kinda pole size n action would you use if you were me thnks again for all the helpful tips I've learned from you

[@rollievancleave2999]

Off topic but...I fish TVA lakes and in the summer we hear a lot about shellbeds which are a mystery to me. How to locate them (map/electronics) and what to throw once you do. Think this would be a beneficial topic for a lot of us. Thanks again.

[@kyleanderson8670]

Would a megabass p5 pop x stick work for the smaller swinging jigs given its insane lure rating?

[@fishingwithfoxxxy1371]

Would it work in silt and mud

[@kavontaeg]

I’m looking for a versatile heavy rod that can throw frogs/ big topwater baits, every style of jig and also be a half decent swim bait rod 20:41

[@andybales7318]

Dobyns Fury 795...very versatile rod at a good price...also throws big cranks like the strike king 8xD & 10xD quite well...big wakes/rats, cranks, big topwaters, swim/glides, & I'm sure could work for frogs...maybe not the best, but could work

[@TheStackboy5]

Was that fish missing an eye 🤔

[@ennova9745]

Honestly I appreciate this video cuz I've had these rocker heads and I haven't known what the frick to do with them lol

[@gewglesux]

Wish i had that kind of bottom...

[@Group115Fishing]

Bass see the color purple really well. That's why you catch a lot of bass on purple in the summer time and bluegills and shad have a purple color pattern on them too.

[@jakarvishouston1429]

Y’all should try the 7’5 hvy NRX for the technque

[@billgowan9432]

Heck yeah. I like fishing the swing head. Truly a big fish magnet. I found the secret big magnet by accident one day fishing a local tournament. I hadn't had a bite so I was trying everything in my tackle box and just happened to pick up the Biffle hard head and on second cast I hooked into a 5+lb bass.

[@Kykayakbasser]

Just talked a buddy into the MB brailist, and he fell in love with it first time out throwing a jig! The wobble head bite is so awesome on that setup, and using a smaller hook with a 3" rage menace is awesome at Dale Hollow in November/December. The 6'10" expride/aldebaran mgl has also been great for me for light Texas rigs, like a 1/0 owner worm hook, unpegged 3/16 tungsten, a Zman tickler, smallmouth killer! Especially in rivers! Thanks for sharing Matt, you haven't steered me wrong yet, and your rod choices for techniques has been spot on 👊, appreciate it brother!

[@dant8213]

I got some vmc swinging jigs with straight shank flipping hooks...certain baits hook up better with it

[@brandonsmith606]

I've been trying this without much success but I am going to keep trying. I think my 7'2"MH Zodias will work well too. I've been looking for a good use for that rod lol.

[@chris_2413]

I like using this technique with bfs gear. I make mine using the tsurinoya cheburashka rig from bait finesse empire. They are tungsten and even with the 1/10 ounce i can feel a lot.

[@adamhannon6976]

I’m always studying your content it’s helped me repeatedly the swim jig is my go to this time of year I’m in the middle of NY state more or less ever since I started using the largo shad as my trailer I’ve been catching em right and left pulled a 4lb large mouth out last night off a bed I’ve got a pack of swing heads next hard bottom spot i fish I’ll be sure to check it out thanks again

[@memelas93]

Have you tried the yamamoto cowboy for this technique?

[@beef1541]

Been waiting on this video, just started working with a wobble head. Thanks

[@Texaslivinoutdoors]

Dude I hammered them the other night on a 10.5 ribbon tail worm on a swinghead

[@rodneysmith4153]

Matt, isn’t the new BMG is lighter, crisper version of the Braillest?

[@IronSwan73]

My lakes are all sand

[@dandy87]

Where can I get the hybrid football heads?

[@emarieford7329]

Love the videos I put it to work an had a great day thank I'll say it again yall are some great teachers keep up the great work

[@patriotjfishing3934]

I love fishing a wobble head with a Zman diezel minnow.

[@christopherlawrence3927]

Great video I love using the wobble head myself. It is just a fun technique. Also strike king makes a tungsten head that you can put any hook on and their a little cheaper than the gamakatsu

[@JoseMartinez-dq4km]

Great video and tip I use the small baits with the tungsten head but I like the haymaker hook buy owner for that it honestly is amazing on the little baits here in Michigan

[@gavinhensley3108]

I have had great results using a omega head with owner haymaker 5/0

[@cjfishtales2238]

Like the swing head so much. I started making my own.

[@murraymoore5662]

Thanks Matt - love wobble heads - love the man bear pig on there as well but the adrenaline craw needs to be added to cart.

[@timhigdonoutdoors5276]

Here we go again another tackle warehouse order 😂😂

[@zacharywietzema1344]

I really wanna see you guys make a Minnesota trip

[@bruceesterline3170]

I just tied one on two days ago a VMC and I can't wait to go this weekend.

[@waynelagarde7956]

What is the best swing head for fishing grass?

[@badcrispy3933]

Headbangers are the bomb!

[@bobbygossett8364]

How about on rip rap banks?

[@50JoshLovesFishing]

Cool video thanks

[@ced-demers]

Xzone bait is insane !

[@johnnygoode-il1zl]

Great video buddy

[@pensnut08]

Excellent video!!

[@razr199]

Thanks Matt

[@brettg4386]

Man, I love/hate these videos because it always makes me run to fishtales and grab new gear or tackle! All jokes aside, Matt and Tim help broaden my understanding for fishing and the endless techniques that go along with it… Two of the best to ever do it!

[@everythingoutdoors-vl9bl]

Do you think it works better for large mouths or small mouth as well?

[@willperryman4559]

I bought some custom made wobble heads painted about 6 years ago and I have loved them with a rage craw, but when I found them in tungsten and started using XZONE 2 years ago it got so much better, and I hate to talk about Junebug colors, because they’re getting harder to find ,but I bought several packs of both ZOOM and XZONE along with a hand poured crawfish 🦞 that I love. I fished a tournament last Sunday in North Carolina and caught 2 kickers on my tungsten wobble head on a rocky humps in the middle of the lake I fished 🔥🔥
