 Today I'm going to be talking about using some crawls. This is the hoax fish crawler right here This one's in green pumpkin and how old how would Rick is I have a regular straight Shank hook and I have it rigged on you don't really need those really expensive hooks where you need like tungstens You need stuff like that and she's in a straight regular lead hook or lead a weight And you don't really need any of that super expensive stuff So that's gonna save you a lot of money you can use tungsten if you want But that's just what I'm using for personal preference today. So how I would fish this bait Just got a pretty good bite on this thing pulled it right off the hook You can actually tell where the fish bit it if you guys were wondering what type of line I'm using I usually range from 10 to 15 pound if I'm gonna use something like this like a crawl I've range between 12 to 15 right here. I'm using 15 pounds seaguar fluorocarbon That's what I would highly recommend on any crawl bait if you're flipping some really thick cover with this type of bait Maybe even 20 pound would be really great, but personal preference. I like 15 pounds. It's not too thick It's not gonna break on you. It's just really great line in general especially for some crawls like this So if you're wondering what kind of places you really need to fish this crawl out, you know Tons of this bass when the sun cubs up they're gonna get in a lot of that structure You know, there's trees other vegetation. There's grass There's all types of structure that there's fish are gonna get in this base gonna be perfect Especially when this base Texas rig like this can be perfect to flip in By that brush to flip in by those sticks to throw in that grass throw on the edge of the grass It's gonna be a perfect bait to get in between all that structure There are many ways you can work this bait it all depends on how those fish are gonna be during the day You know those fish can be really lethargic They can be really slow So you're gonna be having to drag that bait on the bottom very very slow And then some days are gonna be a little bit aggressive where you're gonna want to hop that bait kind of fast You're gonna want to Hop this bait right off the ground you're gonna want to hop it a few times let it sink Pump your rod a few more times let it sink. They're gonna be aggressive They're gonna want to eat it like that But then you're gonna have those days where you want to throw your bait out there You want to let it sit you want to slowly drag it then there's also gonna be those days This fish are just so slow. They're not wanting to chase after anything They're not wanting to be aggressive once so ever you're gonna want to throw that bait out there Let it sit on the bottom for a little bit wait Maybe five six seconds start to move a little bit more and then wait in another five six seconds It all depends on the day, but there's tons of styles away. There's tons of styles To work this bait if I had to use any rod I would use Either a medium heavy or you can use a heavy par rod. This is a heavy power rod This is a 7 3 heavy. This is actually an Akuma TCS style rod on the real I have a Helios TCS reel and this is also by Akuma and this is a 7 1 to 1 gear issue a real That's really the gear issue I would fade around with rod 7 3 heavy You can also use a medium heavy But if you're gonna flip and pitch and throw in some really thick cover I would definitely recommend a heavy even a extra heavy rod to get this fish out of there I hope you guys enjoyed this video and got a few tips out of this video If you did and you want to see some more videos like this, please hit that thumbs up button Definitely check out the hoax fish curl And I'll catch you guys in the next video
