You'll Never Think About a Neko Rig The Same After Watching This

[@AGuyNamedRicky]

I have hired a team of scientists to analyze why a channel with this much knowledge, footage, and compact video format some how doesn’t have a billion subscribers

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks! It keeps growing.

[@thatfishingnoob]

Your knowledge of bass fishing is insane. Anyone who has the opportunity to fish with you or even know you personally is blessed for sure.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Wow, thank you! I just love sharing what people have shared with me over the years.

[@neiljohnsen276]

Once again...awesome advice! Best fishing channel on KZbin!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I appreciate that!

[@MrTheBigNoze]

I can't believe you make these videos every week and put them out for free! I feel like I found a hidden gem

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks! I really enjoy putting them together.

[@AerialEscape]

Gonna have to change the term "Pro Tip" to "Steve Tip" if you keep this up!!! Yet another badass video Steve, well done!!!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks 👍

[@LowBrowFishing]

I really like the bungee jumper rig ever since a pro angler buddy showed it to me several years ago. In certain parts of my local fisheries, it's just about the only way to fish a neko-type presentation without pulling off a glob of gunk after every castl

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

My son absolutely loves that rig. He catches fish on it like crazy in and around vegetation. I just have to keep from gluing my fingers together when putting a dab on the weight. Lol, probably should just use a nail weight more often.

[@rickvann3489]

Dang, great video! I have been having issues with shaky heads, and this solves them all. JUST WOW!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad it was helpful!

[@rickjorstad6666]

I have used that hook in the past, but I prefer using the Hayabusa WRM 202 weedless wacky hook for my neko rigs now. It’s cheaper and when used with an elastech worm works extremely well!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I will have to try that. Thank you!

[@caedenw4]

awesome tip, thanks for this! never tried this bungee jumper thing and have been getting really fed up with all my "weedless" rigs getting stuck or bringing in all the habitat with them. definitely going to be trying this right away.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I hope it works well for you! I really like it.

[@alangerhard7118]

Really enjoy the underwater footage of how they react to different lures. I learn a little something everything time

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks!

[@nortonsoutdooradventures]

Wow didn’t even realize this was a thing. Great tip!!! I fish a lot of grass lakes, definitely gonna try this rig!!! Thanks, good stuff!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Good luck!

[@raygissendanner1476]

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

[@richthompson3326]

I really like these alternatives Steve! Another great informational video! Thanks!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad you like them!

[@GoingMod]

Interesting presentation! Will have to give it a try!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Good luck!

[@Rooster0529]

Great presentations! I enjoyed the under water video as well.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Every time I fish that rig in heavy grass I am just amazed how well it works through there.

[@kevintaylor1434]

Great informative videos , showing the lure actually working in the water and explaining how to do it and rig it Awesome , not just you fishing like most videos.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Fishingwithfaithoutdoors23]

How come you’re the only one has ever mentioned the bungee jumper? I like that rig!! A pro top secret setup in the bass fishing tournaments?

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I first learned about it years ago in one of those little tips/tricks booklets Bassmaster would mail you when you renewed a subscription.

[@Fishingwithfaithoutdoors23]

@@SteveRogersOutdoors ahh ok. Well I’m going to show my group on my KZbin channel, and tell them to stop by your channel and check that rig out! lol.

[@hirambrashier1449]

Very interesting

[@richardmajewski3815]

Love learning from your tips. Especially tips on fishing in cover.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@lexluthor8539]

Best techniques and tips channel on youtube by far! Short format but loaded with good info that’s easy to understand, straight and to the point.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thank you!

[@shannonkirby9295]

Hey, Steve, great to see ya today. Pray u are well and safe. Great video

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thank you! Our heat index today is just crushing, although that is something I know you deal with down there all the time. Supposed to cool down tomorrow and heading to WI on Wednesday. Hope to catch some smallies. Have a great week!

[@shannonkirby9295]

@SteveRogersOutdoors be safe, Steve, and yes ours is so oppressive that it is hard to breath

[@DempseyJKK]

Great vids!

[@bushidocode4773]

Great info you are spitting out there Steve! You up my fishing game to a new level.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad it is helpful!

[@FlavorfulGaming]

This just changed how I looked at fishing some ponds. And has breathed new life into the sinko for me.this may be workable in the milfoil jungles that is Minnesota

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

MN has lots of vegetation! I was just there at the end of July.

[@turtlepoi]

Thx Steve, once again seeing is believing. Longer floating plastics look great on the Neko set up.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

They do look awesome on there!

[@somewhereinsd362]

The neko or bungee around docks has been killer thanks for the tip steve... 30k subscribers , congrats man you've earned them 🎉

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

[@TimEdwards-sx2pq]

Awesome Steve

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks!

[@jonbullard7074]

Great video!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Thanks!

[@skagi123]

Great tip

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kayplainsdrifter136]

IMO, the neko rig also hangs up way less on rocks and rip rap than a T Rig, drop shot, or shaky head for the reason that you mentioned...the hook and line tie are not on the same angle as the weight. It keeps the line tension from wedging the weight into rock crevices.

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

The center line tie works really well.

[@itllkeal]

Have you had success with neko rigged crawdad or a hellgrammite? Thanks

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

I haven’t tried those. I really need to. Thanks for this!

[@stevevanhorn1909]

My water is so grassy, I can't even fish a shaky head anymore ! I'm gonna have to try that bungee rig ..... Can't afford those Gamagatsu hooks !!!

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

Good luck! Let me know how it goes for you. I definitely wanted to show the bungee rig since those hooks are pricey.

[@zombiediarhea]

Yeah when I go fishing, it's like doing yard work with all the slop I wind up dragging in.

[@williamknight5142]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@ericmiles6413]

KAY YOU MADE ROLAND MARTIN'S FLYING LURE. DONE THAT 40 YRS AGO.

[@davidmiller9363]

Use the Tiny Child's Rig! No one is using it

[@SteveRogersOutdoors]

That is a really good rig. I need to do a new video on that one. Thanks!
