John, I started using the 4 inch bubblegum swirl about a month ago after watching you catch a lot of fish is several different kinds of water. I have to admit I was hesitant at first because I just couldn’t imagine any self respecting fish would eat something so weird looking. But, they do and now regardless where I’m fishing I take the yum fingers along. Thanks for sharing!
Please continue to do this type of videos.
My p.b largemouth, came on the bubblegum 4 inch Yum Dinger.I Texas rig it with no weight.I fish my brother's 10 acre lake and I too have learned that fishing it slowly is the key.Also,you have to be a line watcher, something my brother is now learning.I told him one time to set the hook because he had a fish hit the Dinger.I saw only a slight twitch in his line,which he didn't see.He couldn't believe I could tell he had a bite when he felt no hit.Line watching is mandatory when fishing a Dinger,because I've rarely ever had a bass just slam it.
I've bought that lemon bubblegum swirl too - just from watching your videos this past year, John!
I'm lucky enough to live right here where Yum Dingers are made... I'm a big fan but mostly Green Pumpkin and Junebug bags are what I've bought in the past... now I got to say I'm thinking about your videos every time I tie on that special color!
Hey John, with you in that I used to have a bad problem with missing hookups on bites on the wacky rig. On advice from several pros and CZcamsrs (like Debo) I started fishing the VMC Neko hook (or other brands similar shaped) rather than a specific wacky rig hook, and run the hook through two o-rings crossed over (Debo's done some good videos on this). This improved my hookup percentage on bites DRASTICALLY...probably the biggest impact from any single tackle change I have made. A wacky rigged 4" Yum Dinger (Bream color) is now my absolute go-to when I can't get a bite on anything else, and it has saved many a day of fishing.
I caught a bass the first time I rigged one up ! Several months ago, nobody could find this color(mostly looking at Wally stores), but I finally found some at an online store. Bought a couple of packages, then my daughter who lives in North Georgia sent me a couple of packs ! I am enjoying the new channel content so keep it coming, please. Randy B.
I Got Some Yellow Yum Dingers & I Fished Lake Monroe In South Central Indiana, I Caught 6, 14 to 20 Inch Bass & Then I Caught A 10 Pound, 23 Inch "MONSTER," That Bass Ranked As My #1 Fish Of All Time... Thanks To Your Video, I Caught My "DREAM MONSTER"... THANKS, BRO...
I use this setup almost always, it's a great setup and have caught many many sm.
I got the idea of using the Bubblegum and Pink Yum Dinger from this channel! Thanks John!
I have bought a ton of these because of your videos and they work, period. Thanks for sharing how you use them,.
I frequently use them on a wacky rig. I buy industrial o rings which are cheaper than ones sold specifically for fishing.
Actually today I was fishing a 5' yum dinger green pumpkin and chartreuse I got a backlash so the whole time I'm pulling line the dinger just sitting on the bottom and I ended up hooking one and reeling him in over a pretty good backlash! Lol so I started fishing it real slow and ended up catching them the rest of the day letting it fall and sit and very slowly drag it back
I'm glad you did this video on the yum dinger & that color, I wanted to make sure of the color & how you use it, I will just tell that it's a hot color because every store locally is sold out, I subscribed to your channel this past week, really have enjoyed your adventures, I used to fish nothing but creeks & streams, got away from it fishing in lakes, but thinking about getting a kayak, I'm not a very good swimmer though, so I don't know, also I like you putting scripture at the end of all your videos, it's a great witness keep it up☝
I fish a pond along a main highway in South Tulsa; in this maybe 7 acre pond. It's a private pond but since the pond goes into county land there's a small spot I fish from (without trespassing) - anyway I use the 6-inch pink Yum Dingers and I don't need anything else. The bass love it. It is my go to lure. The bubblegum Yum Dinger is good, but not as good as the pink!
Thank you for the tips John hope you have a great day keep the videos coming
Great video John.
I load up on this every time I have the chance, a really good underrated lure. Fish do start to recognize colors so throwing something new do have an effect on them, new subd here my fellow angler friend.
You are a big part of why I fish and got into it really heavy, I really appreciate it.
After watching you catching I have liked them a lot. I like the green and cream too. 4" and 5" but Texas rig green and cream thumpin dinger 6" has worked well. Thanks for what you do!
Guess I’m gonna have to put me an order in very soon.. yum dinger for the win 💪🏻
Gonna have to say my favorite right now is the ned rig my favorite all time lure is gonna have to be a spinner bait 1/2 oz in white that’s usually how I find fish on Norris after watching you I may try the Nikko soon
Thanks!
John I’m going to try them thanks !
Loved this video! More please! Love tutorials on creek fishing!
Studio's coming together nicely!
thanks man, its really helping me get more done i believe
I’m crazy about creekin here in Texas. I have so much action on top water, too stubborn to change at times. I’m going to sneak out this weekend and try these darn things! Keep at it bud, great stuff!
After watching your videos on the yum Dinger I have decided to give it another shot. I bought 3 packs to try it again. I always compare the to a 4 inch senko. In my past trying of yum Dinger they just didn't catch anywhere near as many fish as the senko does. But you killed them at chickamauga on it and senko's are twice the money. So because of you I'm going to give yum Dinger another try. I also do best Texas rigging weedless over wacky by far.
I love all my ML and Med 6’8”-6’10” spinning rods. Over the past year I’ve really adapted to the finesse fishing and love it.
This helped a lot thanks 👍
Bought the bubble gum 4in Yum dinger after watching ur videos. Has had become my sons favorite lure for wacky rig and weightless.
Bought myself some of the crazy pink/orange swirl for myself for my BD now I just need the season to turn thanks John great vid!!
Just bought a bunch of these . The bite was really great for a while . It has slowed with this bait and I have tried other baits . I wacky rig these , weedless , or just hook it through the nose .
I fish my 5” dingers almost exclusively on a screw lock, weighted shank hook when Texas rigging. I feel it accentuates the glide of the worm after the twitch and also gives a little weight to feel the inevitable bite. Try ‘em out if you’re not using them!
Thanks for sharing your secrets with us John. I have begun using the yum dingers because of your channel and I am becoming a fan. Getting info like this will definitely help me and other viewers fish with more confidence... God Bless and Go Kats!!!!!!!!!!
Good stuff I'v got some of the Yum dingers going to fish them moore. Thanks
I recently bought my bubblegum swirl ,yum dinger. I have not used used them as of yet.
I've been busy enjoying the hellgamites.
Thanks for the info
Them yum fingers work great
I’ve been rigging these a little differently. I call it the San Marcos rig. Figured it out while fishing the San Marcos river haha!
Thank you for the video.
Glad to find your other channel. I’ve caught more big fish this year because of your teaching John , this color yum finger is awesome , wacky rigged , weedless or otherwise , another I use is the gulp natural color worms with salt ,they smell but they work .
i would really like to see you do a video on your line combination, in 50 years of fishing I have never used a leader, in fresh water but i would love to hear your thoughts on it and how you do it.
Been using the lunkerstick version of this for the last month or so. It was the last pack on the shelf and the wildest color. Figured I’d give it a shot and boy will the smallies tear it up!
I love Yum Dingers, but I was primarily a black or green pump kinda guy. After watching some of your videos I went and ordered the bubblegum. It’s now my favorite on the wacky.
thats awesome, hope it works as well for you as it does me
The yum dinger king!!!
Yum dingers have so many colors it's insane
YUM soft plastics are often underrated. That peach/bubblegum color is different and very productive. I’ve often taken the 4” YUM Dinger and cut it in half rigged it Ned Rig style on a football head jig. Go as small as you can on the jig size. The PB&J is another good Dinger color. Thanks for the video.
I love your other channel, but I must admit, I truly enjoy this sit down and learn style. I rarely follow both channels, when tubers have multiple channels,but I love both of yours. Keep it up brother!! GOD BLESS
John what’s up brother? I like your videos! God bless keep on keepin’ on!
went fishing with the 4 inch bubblegum today usibd 2/0 EGW and had my very best smallmouth day EVER !!
i'm gonna get 4 more packs tomorrow :)
thanks john !
I ordered 4 bags of the Bubblegum swirl. And 4 more different colors Can't wait to try them out.
I love yum dinger. I catch a lot on the 3 inch
My guess variety is the spice of life! Thanks as always love your content Brother 🤠!!
Good information. I prefer Yum Dingers to other stickbaits because they seem a little more buoyant and durable. I also like the hook slot for Texas rigged hook points. The watermelon/pearl laminate color has been a good producer for me. I love the action of a Dinger that is Texas rigged and weightless.
I may have to give these a try 🤔 😏 🙂 they work super well for ya!!
Yes, the 4" bubblegum swirl is very deadly bait. I use it with a wacky set up.
This is the exact Video I needed thank you. I’m a River Bank Guy and use a lot of the Yum Dingers but didn’t really know how to use the 4 and 5 inch ones effectively. I have had great Luck with the small dingers and I really want to try the new Hellgrammites but my local Walmart doesn’t have them yet. Stay safe my Friend Semper Fidelis
that color matches fish eggs sort of. trout, pan fish, perch, and bass will hit that color a lot. It's like a bigger trout magnet.
I went to cabelas yesterday and I saw the yum section an then I saw those and I got to packs just because you
Haven’t fished for 2 months John with my back. Yum dinger will be my first when I start back
I baught a few passes of these last year. Still yet to get anything on them lol. Now I can try come of these set ups and see if I can bring them in like you.
Great vodeo. I always wondered how you rigged the Dingers!
Like your fish chart.
I Wade fish Ozark Mountain streams. I catch more fish on Yum Dingers than any other lure. My 2 favorite are 5”watermelon/pearl and bubble gum/yellow.
Hope you had a fun time fishing in Indiana, can't wait to see that video whenever it comes. That's my home state, though I've only ever fished south-central. Come check out Lake Monroe some day if that's not where you went. Some great feeder creeks that are really only accessible on foot or by kayak. Or you could always just post up in front of John Cougar Mellencamp's house there and get some nice click bait haha.
But what I really meant to say is this was a fantastic video and I see you've already got some others in a similar vein posted. Your videos have been really helpful for learning more about fishing creeks, and it's great that you're going in depth about the gear your using and how you're using it, in addition to that fun footage of it all coming together on the water. Can't wait to give em a watch here as soon as I finish typing!
We drift fish allot because gas is so expensive . I rig these with a small split shot and just drag it on the bottom with a occasional twitch . Best fish was a 4.5 pound large mouth .
Hey John, I think I mentioned this before but maybe you missed it but anyway I do love the bubblegum lemon swirl but I have also found the bumblebee swirl equally effective here on Lake Cumberland. Maybe the water is a little more stained, I don’t know, but that color almost look like some sort of small snake or lizard in the water. So needless to say I use those two colors exclusively. So, love your show, watched every episode I think, and keep it up.
thats funny, i actually used that one today for the first time and caught several fish on it
My favorite Yum Dinger has become the Watermelon/Pearl. I have been having a lot of luck with the 5”. I am waiting on the 4” version and the Bubble gum swirl to get here to try those. I haven’t been able to find the bubblegum or any 4” locally.
I have learned so much from you, my wife is saying “ How are you doing that !? “ I say John Dalton .
Im still trying to get one on the bubble swirl i was just able to get my hands on some so ill let you know
Just bought my first Yum Dingers watching your video, where you won your first kayak tournament. I like your simple approach. Other videos too complex for me.
I'm from Indiana. don't live to far from a town called Kendallville that has a lake called Bixler lake and camping. very nice lake.
Been here since 3 subscribers
getting in early!!
Love your channel! Creek or small river fishing is the best. I’m a fan of Yum Dingers as well. I’ve noticed you seem to set the hook when you feel the tap-tap-tap. I’ve always tried to feel pressure on the line and see fish take off with it before I do. How do you judge when to set hook? Thanks.
it changes each time, sometimes its just pressure and the fish swimming off with it, sometimes they thump it
I totally believe in your style.....presentation...and slooowww. But....sure wish the videos would focus more quickly. But I'll keep looking for your input!! Thanks...
I think the bubble gum swirl could possibly resemble a catapiller
I will cut some in half for Ned Rig fishing. It sounds crazy, but the Ned Rig lures are more expensive and have less choice of colors.
I started using the bubblegum yum dinger as well because of you and have caught some smallies on it here in northeast Tennessee. Just one question, how long of a piece of leader are you putting on the end of your braid?
from 5 to 10 ft
Have you tried using the O-rings where you put the ring over the worm and then use that to hold the hook?
yes sometimes, i want to try it more
I need to focus on slowing my fishing down. I mostly get out in 1- 1.5hour bank sessions so always feel rushed and fish that way. Maybe I need to leave the tackle bag at home and just focus on a basic worm
John did you make a new channel? I love the yum dingers, I've had success with alot of colors. My favorite way is weedless rig on a ewg hook or just on a jig.
Yes I have
My weakness is always trying to bring in the worm too fast. Hard to go slow, but I'm working on it! Slow down!
I do mine weightless Texas rig
Can you use the 5 inch one
I want to see a YUM Dinger 3inch one's want to get some.for light finesse fishing.
BPS at the Pyramid in Memphis was sold out of these in all sizes...I wonder why?
I never catch anything on that thing!!! I always use the 5in I'm pretty sure. I think something wrong with those Tennessee bass!! Lol tight lines my dude
Your videos have really grown the past 2 years
Man I love yum dingers. I seem to have better luck with watermelon red specks or elden magic
My pb bass is 7lb-8lb
I can’t figure out braid ,knots, spooling but knots especially. Help !
Leader/line to hook = Improved clinch knot line to leader = Alberto knot. That’s all ya need to know!
Do you rig the hook through the slot that is on these worms ?
if it fits, if not it doesnt make a difference
I like this color as well brother !!!! It really works well in the pads too
Anyone have luck using a 1/10 oz. Ned Rig-style jig head with these?
VMC Neko hooks will solve your hook up issue with wacky rig. Hooks sold as wacky hooks are trash. Too small. Basically just circle hooks.
thanks
Do they ship the products by UPS, FedEx, USPS????
im not 100% sure
I’ve got A-prime, I live north of Indy, IN. 24 hours Bubble Gum Swirl was on my doorstep. Think it depends on where you live.
Took it Yak-ing on White River tonight for an hour and half. 2 Rock Bass, dad used to call em Goggle Eye and 4 Smallies. My most exciting catch was TX rig in a brush pile, saw a fish chasing bait and tossed it in. Weedless for sure.
I tried to be like you just the other day bro. I rigged up a spinning rod with the ol bubblegum swirl, casted at the bank, and then paid attention to everything except my line. No bites for me. Maybe next time.
sorry man, im sure there are some places it will fail
Don’t fix what’s not broken!
Thanks!
thanks for that, really appreciate the help
