These Are Trash! I Can’t Recommend These Fishing Tackle Items.

These pieces of fishing tackle did not cut it for me. I might as well toss them in the trash. Have you tried them?

My Profile:
www.mattstefanfishing.com/
I was born and raised in Chicago, but after working 12 years in the financial Industry regulating the futures and options markets at the CME/CBOT I decided to pursue my passion fishing professional tournaments and left my full time corporate job. At that point, I moved to Junction City, WI with my wife Sara and two boys Hank and Duke. I've been fishing professionally since 2011 and full-time since 2015. I've qualified for seven MLF Championships and won over a half million in tournament winnings at the professional level.

🍺Giving personal reasons why particular baits/products fall short is much more valuable information to me than someone telling me they love a particular bait/product but then not backing it up with any reasons why they like it.

[@richparks1966]

You just strap on your Sandwich Board and get out there and pitch product, you're a salesman, super salesman. Fishing is just a phase you're going through, like that forced winter camping on the back deck you are currently enduring. No picking this, no picking that, you should be able to sell LiveScope to Blaukat. The line is 'Always Be Closing,' not complaining. Sell it all, let reality sort it out later.

I tend to stick my peg-it’s through the bottom end of the bullet weight, especially when fishing grass. It eliminates the problem you mentioned, and also protects the knot especially with heavier punching weights

[@garyong2499]

I always put the large end of the peg in the back of the weight and trim off the nose end of the peg, never thought about putting the big end in the nose, that would be annoying.

»Hayabusa Spin Muscle Guard Weedless Hook«

[@richardblake4777]

Some of us take your word as the answer. So, it's important that you believe in want you are recommending.

[@mr.skeptical3071]

I hate to say it, but anything from Big Bite Baits

[@shawnriebe4547]

I love to see your honest reaction and advice. It would be great to see more of this! Thanks

[@brianmonson1526]

The peg it you disliked…if you rig it from the end closest to the hook side instead of the pointed end it works great. That’s how I always use them. The way you rigged it was the first time I’ve seen it done like that. Just me?

[@heinrichkellogg7563]

🍺Looks like you have already made some progress in the basement bait shop.🤠

[@royhutyra6091]

I use the rubber weight pegs you showed on occasion. But i insert it from the other end of the weight. It seems to protect the knot from the weight and I get it through the grass and muck easily. Keep all the info flowing, I know I learn something from every show....

[@barefootgrl]

thanks for being honest and not just trying to sell junk if you know what i mean

[@mountainbigbass]

Maybe you should try putting the rubber stopper in the other direction of the bullet weight. I think you might be putting it in backwards.

[@LowBrowFishing]

I just don't let the hook poke through the worm on a wacky rig. It's simple and works really good. I snag up a lot less often.

[@depalebe]

I use the Peg it version of those Freedom pegs and I have always inserted them from the base not the tip. Try it and see if it works better. Thanks

[@robwilliams2265]

PLEASE PLEASE, keep doing these. One of my absolute favorite videos

[@rippinlipsinc.2200]

VMC Crossover rings are the juice for me as a Co angler. Need the pliers for it to work.... VMC is a great brand,however,confidence is a better brand!

[@edwardwicht5271]

G7 screw in nail weights have worked great for me. A very tiny drop of locktite gel glue on the tip of the nail that distributes along the threads as you screw it into the plastic holes the nail exceptionally well. Best I’ve found so far.

[@travisbruno5964]

Matt those vmc weedless hooks are actually one of my favorites i use them in the sloppiest muck ponds in NJ and they always come back clean for some odd reason..i do agree with the material its a little flimsy and i have to bend every other cast but my hook up ratio is great

[@whitebass16]

I love how honest you are about products. I agree 100% on the vmc weedless neko hooks and those nail weights.
