Only problem with that rig for soft beads is it's gonna tear through your beads. You can get glass beads to use as stops at any crafts store for pretty cheap and will last forever
Absolutely glass stops work great. I find this rig as a quick alternative to not having to retie to get back to fishing and in on the action. Normally I will use a stop and sequin to keep the bead in place when time allows. Thanks for watching and the feedback
@@HolyMolyOutdoors absolutely I would recommend to always prep leaders before you go fishing I use leader boards there pretty cheap and I usually will not put a bead or anything on the leader I just rig the hook and the bead stop and then I select the leader off the board based on bead size I wanna use when I get to the water so I always have 5 leaders of each size hook per leader board and then it's just a matter of picking the bead u want and tying one knot and your in action
@@OregonFishingAdventures absolutely agree! Prep ahead when at all possible. Saves time and catches more fish
GLass beads shred yourr line
@@mickeyvance5974 interesting 🤔 never seemed to have that issue with Maxima ultragreen theglass beads I use come from elevated tackle and they have rounded edges comes with all there beads. Do you have any recommendations of something else to use? I have not had good experiences with T stops
I’ve tested out every method on separate days on separate times of the day. The most effective way to fish soft beads is right on the hook. 14 mm and up you just catch a tiny bit of the bead on the hook, anything smaller they ride right on the shank. Way better hook sets and I can switch out beads way faster than anybody else. Not to mention, I rarely lose the bead after landing a fish.
I like that concept, essentially how a spawn bag is fished but with a bead instead. I will definitely give this a try here soon
I have been doing the same thing... I'm getting go hook ups with Cohos this year with this method.
@HolyMolyOutdoors let us know how it goes! I'm thinking about trying it too. The land ratios gotta go up, one would think...
Yeah I agree. I thread a small piece of wool through the center of my bead to dress it up a
bit. When the fish inhales it, you're hooked up.
So your saying instead of doing the 2-3 finger thing above the hook you just have the bead barley on the top shank of the hook basically on the eye of the hook and the rest of the bead is on the line?
Thank you!!!!!
Thank you for watching! Merry Christmas!
1st snag, it is ripped in half and gone.
The dnr will love this one lol😅
Why? Simply because it doesn't have a bobber stop?
I fish beads and that's how you're supposed to do it, the hook dangles 2-3 in inches below the bead. They bite the bead and it gets em right in the nose 99.9% of the time.
That's how you fish beads......how do you do it? Right at the hook?
nah you want your soft bead to give way off of the small bead its sitting on, that way when you set the hook the bead stays in its mouth, and the hook sets instead of the bead jerking its head before the hook is there. A smaller craft bead for the nucleus holds it just enough.
I recently have seen this put into action and really like the small bead idea. I’ll be trying that here soon and will do an update on the video. This was made for a no retie and just get to fishing setup. Not necessarily the Taj Mahal but for simplicity it will catch fish. Thanks for watching
We don't call them beads. We call them rubber eggs. Our beads are made of glass. It stays on the bottom and doesn't bounce off the rocks.
New subscriber here. Awesome rig
Thanks for watching and the support!!
Great rig if your out on the rive and have no stops but it tears apart the bead quickly
No doubt it will tear them but for fast in action and getting fish, can definitely help save rigging time. Thanks for watching!
Do you find that tearing beads apart on snags and other non fish hang ups?
@@calebd4317 it very well could but for how fast a re-rig color can be without a knot I’d say that is worth it for the time saving. But I can do a field test and show it in real time
This might possibly be the worst way to put on a soft bead
Lol it was intended as a fast on the water switch for getting right back in the action. There absolutely are better ways that do take a little more effort but this allows you to get back in the action quick. Thanks for watching
This is the best way to spend endless amounts of money.😅
Do you put this on the end of a bottom bounce type rig? I do a similar setup with plastic i have the leader tied off to a drop swivel with a weight selected for the current. I also have a rod setup at all times with a swivel at the end of my leader and a weight that slides up and down my main line tied to the other end of the swivel. I usually just a 1 ounce weight where i fish. About a 3 foot 12 pound SS p line fluroucarbon
This can absolutely be used on a bottom bounce drift rig. Me personally I use it more often float fishing them. Thanks for watching and the support
obviously the line will cut the bead in half once you set it. Do the beads break down in water over time? eating micro plastics?
All fish have microplastic in em .only small fish are safer to eat.sucks coconuts but it's true.too much garbage in the waters
Egg loop knot ?
Im new to this, so sorry if its a dumb question.. but why doesnt the bead go on the hook itself?
Not a dumb question at all! The bead is pegged for two reasons at least in my understanding. One it helps with the fish mortality around wilds, hooks are placed outside the jaw vs deep hooked. And secondly I’d say that your more apt to have issues with the bead sliding off the hook without anything to keep it in place
@@HolyMolyOutdoorsso you dont have issues with the fishing biting the bead and missing the hook?
I've never understood this either, it would seem so much simpler to just put the bead on the hook. In my part of Alaska there's no rule against keeping "wild" salmon (and you can't tell them apart from hatchery fish anyway, they're not marked here), so I'm planning on just putting the bead on the hook.
great question I was asking the same thing by myself, and I thought it was just making the bead flow naturally. That was the only thing I could think of.
Does this works for all type of salmon?
Where to buy those
Rookie ...
Noob here. Why not put the bead on the hook? Is this to get a specific kind of hook set?
Thank you for watching and the question. You definitely can however the pegging of a bead allows for a better hook placement and less chance of lethally hooking a fish. 2” above pegged allows for the fish to grab the bead and the hook gets placed in the corner of the jaw.
@@HolyMolyOutdoors very interesting stuff…I hope to hook a trout with this rig here soon…thanks man. Subbed.
@@Zachajaws10 thank you for watching!
Or you could just use the bead stopper.
If u snag up and get everything out except your bead remember it’s b cause you use a “lasso rig”… use other methods, save money.
100% right. I made this to be a super time saver on the water and not have to re tie a new rig and quickly change colors. There are absolutely ways with a sequin and bobber stop to make rigs last longer no doubt. Appreciate your input and watching
I like this for quick color changes but feel like any hang up big or small would tear through that bead like butter and these b and r soft beads ain’t cheap these days! I’ll give it a try when the rivers come back into shape though, thanks for the tip, tight lines from Oregon!
Anytime you snag on anything it’s a guaranteed split bead, why would you ever do this? Get yourself a bead pin or simple plastic bobber stop. Don’t use this method!
Yes you are right there are better ways to peg the bead. The whole point was a way to change colors on the spot and not have to tie a knot. If you are in a hot bite why spend 10 mins re rigging when you can get another fish or two.
@@HolyMolyOutdoors in what world does it take you 10 minutes to throw a bead on lmao.
Exactly
Or run the small glass bead like a normal person.. You're gonna rip through it first hookset and when fishing beads you constantly get bobber downs since you roll them on the bottom. I also use the smallest sewing needles i have to thread soft beads on my line, you tear more than you need to going over the barb
I agree there are much better long term ways to keep them secured. My thought to this idea was a super fast on the water way to get right back on a bite without a re tie. Greatly appreciate your insight and watching
Then your littering in the river. No thanks man.
Not littering at all if you keep the torn pieces to toss away appropriately later. One of my favorite things is to collect enough soft beads and worms that are no longer reusable and melt down and pour new baits with the remelt.
That bead is gonzo soon as you set the hook on anything…
Yes definitely might be but if that meant a fish landed it’s not a bad trade off.
2¢ for a pretty decent meal? I’ll take it
Where can u get those beads
You can get soft beads with a bead stopper included. Look up BnR soft beads. It's all in one setup. Sometimes I'll run a trailer hook off my bed hook and put a smaller bead on it. I actually had 2 jacks on one line the other day because they both ate a bead off my two hook setup.
just tie a slip knot on your leader
Absolutely, this was intended for a no retie quick put a new color on attempt to be fishing as quickly as possible
I cant help think about the plastic left floating down the river after you hook a fish, may as well leave all you tag ends and discarded leaders in the river too.
True but then what about all soft plastic baits for all fish.
Could possibly tie a knot weakening your line
Yes it potentially could but as an option for a quick re rig, just one different way it can be done
@@HolyMolyOutdoors would never do it. Would not take the risk of a break off.
@@Mr4twitch totally understand.
@@nunliski yes it can. You don't know how knots are tied?
@@nunliski do I need to make a video of tying a knot inside of a power egg?
Until you snag your hook and pull the line. 😂
Wait a second..you mean I've been pronouncing lasso (la-sue) incorrectly all my life?? I had no idea it was pronounced la-soh. Or is this a 'Merica thing?
Ive been doing this for YEARS...just common sense
No doubt for some, but I’ve come across many that are un sure or just getting into it. Definitely something to keep in the book for on the water. Thanks for watching
Aaaannnd then it cuts through the bead when you set the hook. Bye bye bead
Or just use a toothpick
On a soft bead? 😂
