  • Every swimbait fisherman knows about the Megabass Magdraft swimbait. One of the best on the market. I've spent some time and learned a few tricks to make the bait even better! Let me know if you have any as well!

    I fish the 10" MagDraft and 8" huddleston. You don't need a trailer hook. Big fish will swallow the entire bait. I do like how you rigged the top hook..I may take off the bottom hook and just run one on top so that I can swim it on bottom.

    Subscribed about 6 months ago. Started fishing the Magdraft about a year ago. Mostly on Lakes Fork, T-Bend & Sam Rayburn in east Texas. Quietly caught some giants, had some heart stopping followers, etc. Watched every Magdraft video I could find. A few good ones (& the opposite-but that's just CZcams...) . Most of them have been a combination of 80% BS & footage of "the guy" bragging & dragging in monsters over the gunwales , 10% basic & obvious tips and the rest was just promo for Megabass. BUT not this video! This is the best actual "how-to" Magdraft video on CZcams. Thanks for making it real & hope to see you do even more in depth videos about fishing the Magdraft. An excellent example on how CZcams videos should be filmed and a good "presentation model" for someone thinking of starting a channel of their own. Thanks.

    That’s gonna kill every fish u catch. It’s gonna get them right in the gills use like 1 hook it’s a 6 inc bait

    I throw all sizes of the mag. No need for trailer hook. I hook mine on 65 lb test braid to a 15lb floro

    6” bait totally unnecessary for all them stingers. I guesss if you’re trying to bring them 1 to 2lbers that are slapping it but even still… I don’t even use a stinger with the 8” but free country do what you want, I guess…

      Matt Becker Fishing never lost a fish on a mag draft! FYI heavy action is to much for a 6” thats probably why you’re missing fish!!

    Way too overkill for a 6” bait. I mod the 8” for a weedless 10/0 beast hook and have no issues with hookups.

    That's ridiculous in no way shape or form does a 6 inch magdraft need any of that I catch 8 inch smallies on it with one eith fish it stock or get the freestyle and rig it on a beast hook and be done with it

    Hey, great tips. Wondered if you've ever had a new Magdraft not run true right out of the box? My new 8" wants to lay over to the right even at a very slow roll. Any help in tuning this $24 paperweight so it can be useful? Any help from you or subscribers would be much appreciated!! Thanks.

    Great video. Thanks for the info. Rod/reel combos and speed are always hard to find for these. Will be trying some this week at Champlain.
    For all the haters. Explain a super spook, shad rap, or any other 6” bait with 3 trebles with your so called logic. I do believe the man said when your in tournament situations and getting short strikes. There are also at least 2 other pros, one being Chris Zaldain offering these same tips. Nobody said you had to do any/all of these ideas. If you want to be a swim bait purest thats on you and enjoy. Don’t hate on a guy for trying to help others.

    What are your reasons behind throwing fluoro. Just curious.

    • @MattBeckerFishing
      @MattBeckerFishing  Před 2 lety

      Small amount of stretch/shock absorb, line sinks to help keep it down

    Wow... I fish a lake with 1lb bass in it and I don't even need all that added metal I honestly thought this was supposed to be a sarcastic video if you need to get every fish to the boat then use a smaller bait I think you're missing the purpose of larger swimbaits.
