- I love bass fishing in the fall and one of my favorite baits is the Squarebill Crankbait. It's the best way to cover water and find bass.

Gene is one of a kind. He is literally the only fishing lessons CZcamsr who is actually teaching and not trying to sell tackle. The "Googan Squad" should take notes from this Fishing Legend The Doesn't Ever Throw A FlukeMaster! Keep on showing us the way Gene! 🎣 🐟
Even as you work a bait or lure even if no grass gets caught occasionally pop rod tip anyways. This will give lure a darting action like it's scared an will help with strikes from fish in the area.
I caught 98 bass yesterday in about 7 hrs on a luckycraft 1.5 squarebill fishing between and beside weed mats. Got 1 fatty out of that haul but this info is on point! They just crushed it all morning!
What gene said about the 1st technique can be used for all lures. Especially in the summer
I've struggled to catch fish on Clarks Hill since moving here 2 years ago (only caught 2 total bass). Everywhere else I fish is no problem. Used the advice you gave here with the square bill (ripping it and pulling with the rod), caught 3 largemouths and a spot today. You're the man, Gene!
Keep working the square bill. Once you spend several months on a square bill pick another lure you haven't developed skill in watch tutorials on the new lure then apply what you learn on say a spinner bait or whatever new lure you pick. When you decide how long you plan to fish let's say it's 2 hours. Spend 30 minutes on the squarebill then 30 minutes on the newest lure. Then fish lures you have confidence in to keep skill of those lures sharp. Say you fish from March to November on your days off. That's 9 months of practice on the newer lures. When you decide the time you have to fish, devide the time up equally on the new lures and lures you have confidence in. 😊 happy fishing, brother. Final though, anything new you can learn to apply to lures you already fish to further develop skill on lures you have confidence in and new lures use that and do so.
This is def something I struggle with. Thank you for making this video!
again thank you .you help alot of anglers with your videos .I just had a square bill running to the right so I bent it over barely and is perfect now.
Great video on a square bill, thanks for all of the info. It's become one of my favorite baits and it helped me put fish on the board in November in a team tourney on a tough lake.
Go dawgs baby! Love the content.
I came here because I love throwing cranks, one of my favorite baits..square bills and lipless cranks as well. Awesome video. 👌
Another great video Gene! I have to admit I don't regularly throw a square bill, but I am going to use the tips you shared for my tourney this weekend.
Nice video, great advise!
Thank you for your teaching style.
As a bank angler I love fall fishing and throw Rapala sqaurebills. Thanks for the info, Gene!
Thanks again brother. I took a day off of work today to get some me time. Played around in Ruddock Louisiana. 20 minutes from my house. Did some cranking and caught a red breast sunfish. Swallowed the back treble hook. Fished a spook jr that walked great Made me look like I knew what I was doing lol but around 1:00 pm I went with the ole faithful Texas Rig with a tungsten 3/8 hitting the shade pockets on the bank. I landed 2 an missed 3. That says a lot for that area.
Great video. You are a good teacher.
Great video thanks for the tips
Gene Jensen the Georgia version of Bill Dance. Enjoy you videos Gene
Great video 📹 Thank you for sharing 👍
Awesome video thank you
Great video!
Love ya dude!!
Thx Gene. Great info. Appreciate you man.
Gene, Im not sure if im being scammed to contact u on telegram? But i sent you a message on Instagram to confirm this is true.
Thank you
Your awesome Bud
Great vid. Learned so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Very good video a lot of good information thank you also I take it 2-in would be too big on the crankbait
Thank you for doing training videos from a kayak!
I want to build my confidence with square bills. I was losing hope thinking maybe it's because I'm sitting in a kayak as of its a bad presentation... let me try it again!
Man that fish was a beauty!
Hey man love your vids! Question, do you have a vid or even a doc that outlines rod/reel/line for each technique? I know you hit on this in every video, hoping you may have something more compact as I am in the process of relining etc. Appreciate all your help for us anglers!
I just got the Shimano Slx glass cranking rod on sale, Im gonna try to use it for top water too
Lunkerhunt has a decent square bill as well and personally it's one of my favorites. I actually had a small 24" tiger muskie take it one morning.
Yeah it’s truly the only squarebill that’s worked for me this year consistently in SoCal 7 of the last 10 squarebill bass I’ve caught have been on it
I throw that KVD on a medium spinning reel with 15lb power pro and I absolutely crush them🎣
I’ve been itchiNg for fall bass. Spooks and squarebills. Hopefully the Rapala BX brat I got works well!
Hey…love your content. I’m looking to sign up for one of those monthly tackle box subscriptions for bass gear…any recommendations? Thank You 🎣
Owner American short shank treble hooks will help even more with snags on cover. The bill helps but with short shank Owner American the stags on cover an structure will be even more minimal occurrence of getting caught.
Very Interesting...
Great video Gene..THANKS, I love fall fishing.
Did you go to the saltwater Xi3?
I'm wanting to just because (although not real often) I'm afraid to use the freshwater model in saltwater when I do go.
I have some Matuzo cranks. Some run perfect other ones do that yo yo. I tried to tune the Yo Yo ones but cant get them right. Shame to because ive caught the most fish using them when they are right.
What are your thoughts about the new hybrid square bills coming to market
Go Dawgs!
I love this dude I would love to fish with him
I need to make this one of my confidence baits but it's just so hard to put a swim jig down when I'm burning through shallow cover
I feel you struggle. I love a swim jig. I'm going to be filming the video for it in then few days.
What do you think about Chase Cominsky and Jake Runyon?
random question- I've watched some of your older videos and you used to fish out of a bass boat. Did you ditch the bass boat for a yak? If so, how come? Fishing in a yak always looks so tough to me.
Man I've got a KVD square bill that's caught so many fish it's missing almost all its paint. I've tried replacing it, the fish just don't hit the new one the same. It's even missing piece of the back hook, hell I'm scared to replace the hook for fear of ruining the mojo! Sometimes I wonder why I ever take it off the rod.
I used to take steel wool to new cranks to make them look old.
Scotch Brite works wonders too
I’ve just started using cranks and jerkbaits, I realized that in order for me to gain confidence I at least gotta use em😂
The same lure you had such good luck get the same one brand new an try it an see
@@joegrande4848 I did, it didn't work
Gene, you should apply to get into bassmaster classic brother 😊 I feel you'd do really well
Thanks Gene. Trying to build up confidence with cranks. This is a great video. Been back into bass fishing for the last 6 or 7 years. Your videos have helped me so much over the years. Keep it up brother. Edwin is another I have been watching for years.
Good for you dude so keep on reeling em in
Haven’t lost one on a 7’ mh / f
I have tons of squarebills. And I'm partial to the Lucky Craft.
Is it good to skip it?
What is the fishnet you use I would like one that seems easy for the wrist
It’s a YakAttack Leverage Landing Net.
Can i fish a crankbait or treble hook bait with braid and a leader at the end?
Sure
Are you going to make any videos out of your alumacraft?
Generally I've noticed bigger fish an huge fish usually by fishing slower an pausing alittle longer usually catches tanks. The reason bass that got so big is because 2 reasons. One there very aware of conditions changing more so when oxygen an food supply drops. The second there's even a slight change they move. 2 the large bass don't utilize alot of energy to get food as stated there very more high in tune with transitions an food supply being part of the tradition an they move frequently the very second there's a change as stated. That's why they're so big being in tune to changes even more so with oxygen food an current which helps the factor of oxygen. These huge bass will always ensure the have the absolute I mean absolute best transitions with the best food oxygen an protection
Would the jabber jaw be a good crank to throw at this time as well?
You bet. I don't know why is slipped my mind in this video. I just forgot to put it in my notes a guess.
I have a question that hopefully you can answer. I hear you say chattercrank rod and when I look at my sqaurebill rod I feel like there's no way it has enough back bone to set the hook on a chatterbait. Is the chattercrank rod stiffer then a traditional cranking rod or is it a legit cranking rod and I'm just over thinking? Huge fan been watching since I got back into fishing 2016.
The Chattercrank rod is stiffer than a regular MH Moderate rod but 13 Fishing is the only company that makes that rod of course, but a MH Moderate rod is the closest rod to it when you are looking at other brands of rods.
I'm sure when you get grass on treble hooks an u pop rod hard I'm sure bass will crush the square bill.
So I know that you discussed the scamp for this kind of year but what do you think about using the original jabberjaw as well?
Oh yea, I forgot about it in this video.
@@Flukemasterwell you know me I’m here to help.
Long time viewer....first time commenter. What is the PFD/life jacket do you use?
Thanks Kenneth. Thanks for watching my videos. It's an NRS Chinook
@@Flukemaster thank you!
What’s your personal record?
Which colors do you suggest in 1"? I'm new to this technique. Also do you use a swivel?
No on the swivel,but I will use a small snap...and depending on the water clarity ,this usually decides your choice in color of bait. In the fall shad patterns in general but I also have great confidence chartreuse/ black back for murky water or low light conditions .Super clear water something more translucent 👍
@@dontnonowuno9953 I'm in AZ. Water can be darker and I would think gp or bluegill would work and craw. Just looking at a few
@@yakityakteriw6774 yeah I fish out of yuma on the lower Colorado river quite a bit.Water clarity can change alot depending on current.I do well on white top with more translucent belly when it's clear.Dont sleep on lipless cranbaits(traps),they get hammered out there
@@dontnonowuno9953 good info. 👍 I'm trying new lures and such this year. I love this time of year for fishing. Bites harder but I love the challenges
@@yakityakteriw6774 yeah me too..good luck
Can I also use a spinner? This is all I use
Spinners work pretty well in fall but I think chatterbait is better during the fall
You should be able to use the smaller 1.5> with no problem
I only fish cranks 99% of the time. I am from South Africa.
You said 7’10”? Did you mean 6’10”?
yep
If water has minimal to no current all fish even big fish will move because oxygen is depleted with oxygen depleted their food source will also move.
Cb and any worms are a guarantee 95% of the time
Great vid Gene. Always love your content. Hey bud I don’t know how much ya check your Facebook messenger but I sent ya a message on there
