Another tip for beginners, you don't need to use giant hooks. The smaller the hook, the more action you get out of the bait. A bass will always try to eat a big bait HEAD FIRST. Just let the rod load before you swing. My best days worm fishing have been using a 3/0 hook on a 10" worm. The hook may seem small at first but it's plenty long enough.

Marcus Young good tip. Ive never used a 10” worm cuz the bass i catch are usually smallish to normal sized and the hooks that I “think” i should use for a 10” worm look to big for the fish.
@marcusyoung2870

@@flapjack622 I've actually lost more bass when worm fishing on larger hooks then when using smaller hooks. The larger the hook, the bigger the hole you'll rip in their mouth, making it easier for then to throw the hook. Little bass will try to eat a big worm as well so it doesn't hurt to try it.

I use 2/0 or 3/0 worm hook for baby brush hogs up to 7" worms. I get to the big boy brush hogs or 10"+ worms I like a 4/0 EWG or a 5/0 Worm hook. Going bigger just gets too much imo.

The nrx/aldebaran combo is almost otherworldly. I just don’t think you can do any better than that. Forget bottom contact/finesse stuff even. It’s just brilliant all around. Whenever I switch from one of my typical reaction setups to the nrx/aldebaran, I have to stop and appreciate how incredible it feels. I’m slowwllyyy swapping out my non-heavy duty, “no wenching required” setups to nrx with aldebarans or metaniums. They’re expensive but they’re so worth it. There’s a reason you see all the shimano pros with boats full of nrx/metanium combos.

This video is perfect timing! I was just about to give up on my worms with tails.. I fished one last week and was shutout until I accidentally ripped the tail off-then proceeded to catch fish. Tried the tail agin a couple days ago, same result..nothing. Intentionally tore the tail off and started bringing them in the boat. I guess I’ll give them a shot a third time. GREAT tips on the braided line and longer rod for better sensitivity and feel - much appreciated Tim!

Let me warn you all, if you buy the IMX thinking hey it’s still Loomis i’ll save some money. No you will not, because it will just make you want the NRX more. I then got the GLX and i was so impressed i kept thinking how could it be better? I own Exprides and Champion XP and i just sold my Avid X because it’s very similar to my 854 in that it’s a jig and t rig rod. These rods are addicting.

one trick for feeling light bites with stiffer or any baitcaster is pinky ring and middle finger on rod index sitting across in front of line so line is running on finger. and thumb at top of reel.. with mono anyways. braid might cut your finger? not sure I never used it. I failed past two nights dragging wacky rig.. first skunks ive had in a bit.. night bites.. well I left a hour before it got dark. prob shoulda tried morning for summer.. though from shore summer always a pain.

Great channel, I have basically used your info and am trying to fish my lake with what I've learned from y'all. My question to you is, my lake is a very shallow body of water. I think the deepest part in the middle is maybe 15-20feet maybe. It used to be a rice field, and the weeds and vegetation are crazy. I'd say it's like 90% weeds in this lake, and they go right up to the surface and out. Basically my question is if I'm trying to fish a Shakey head, a jig, a swim bait anything like that I'm playing in THICK weeds. No matter where I fish. So should that change the way I fish the lake? For example with the worms, I really can't drag a worm along the bottom cause I'll be into weeds almost straight away. Could you do a video or just msg me back about fishing an area that's just all weeds? I feel like sometimes I don't translate what you teach here to when I'm out fishing cause I don't have the option on this particular lake to go deep on rocky points or just deep ledges in general. It's pretty much just a giant weed garden with 5-12ft water.

New subscriber. I am having to rewatch this one with all the info. I have a couple questions if you don't mind. A.) Texas Vs Shaky - Did you say the difference is a little faster plastic reaction with the shaky? Is the Texas for more finesse in spring and fall, or would it be safe to always substitute the texas rig for a shaky? B.) Do you find that spooky bass are harder to catch with braid? Seems like a lot of reel sound telegraphs down the line. C.) Do you use flouro leader in combo with braid? D.) Do I have this right? #1 shakeyhead on a worm with a shovel tail (the fixed weight provides the action) #2 drop shot (when you find a school and want to target a feature) #3 Ned Head with big jig (you know there's a big fish that's biting light) #4 Texas Rig with fast action tail (slower presentation for inactive fish)

I hate braid. I cannot get it to not get wind knots in it which never end up coming out...that's the most annoying part. I also hate how it has no shock absorption, and I don't believe a shock leader is enough. I have seen many fisherman lose huge fish that were on for a minute or two and then suddenly their fish was just gone. I believe with large size fish, they can pull hard enough to wear a huge hole in their mouth that allows the hook to slide out. In addition, I don't have any problem fishing with Stren clear blue line in any lb test. I have no problems detecting bites, I can also see the line quite well because the clear blue shows up nicely yet disappears against the sky from below. Stren is also pretty tough, in my opinion stren beats trilene xl by a mile in terms of toughness and raw strength. Other people can use fancy braided line if it suits them. There's lots of people winning a lot of money using braided line. I just think that people forgot when braid came out, that mono has gotten better over the years too, it's just become overshadowed by power pro and similar lines.
