- This video is a must-watch to get up and running with this sophisticated yet simple and fun to fish lure category. Glide baits are essentially large-profiled jerkbaits that when worked properly, have a repetitive side-to-side motion that triggers a feeding instinct in the largest of bass. There’s a lot a theory out there on how to work these beautiful lures, but the guidance provided in this video instills a confidence that you can take to the water and be successfully up and running with no prior experience.

Great info. I've fishing soft plastic swimbaits for a while and I'm getting into the glides this year.
Excellent tutorial and explanation of how to get the best action for big bites. Appreciate this video a lot.
Every time I watch one of your videos about something, I take away a bunch of other tips on other things that I was not clear on. Thanks a lot bud!!!
Well, we sure like hearing this Average Joe. Appreciate you spending a little of your time with here. Let us know if there's anything we can do to improve.
BEING YOUR FANS, LOVE YOUR WORK, KEEP UPLOADING.
Love seeing Chris using the tried and true Greenie, Curado 300E or 301E 😜🎣🔨🎣
Finally: someone who thinks like me about glide baits! :) I only use the reel too. If you use the rod to twitch it's easy to twitch more than you should and the hooks will catch the line... The bait can move unnaturally too. I usually reel steadily and slow, specially in colder water, and then I do some quick 1/4 or 1/2 turns of the reel handle to make it change direction and glide. If I want it to glide more I'll give some slack by moving the rod/reel forward just a bit. In the summer I'm doing the quick reel handle turns almost all the time and do less steady retrieves. While I fish it I always have my rod in a horizontal position and pointed at the bait while holding the rod handle under my arm/armpit, so I have more power to set the hook. That way I'm always ready to set the hook with a sweeping motion to the side while I rotate my body to the side at the same time. About the fish turning to face the bass: I don't agree with that too! Prey don't do that. Bass strike a glide bait when it does that because it changes direction like a baitfish trying to escape! And that triggers a reaction from the bass because it doesn't want it to escape! It's like when you play with a cat: you're moving something away from the cat and he stares at it... When you suddenly move it quickly away he attacks it quickly! It's their instinct. So, with a nice and quick glide to the side you can have the same or better results than when you make the lure "face the bass".
Excellent Marco, thanks for your contribution to this content. Your read serves as a nice written instruction to the video with some additional points. We have some good fresh California-based swimbait content getting published on wired2fish.com and our CZcams channel next week. Appreciate ya!
Amazing cuality and quantity for the price. The swim action is good for the size of the lure also. Made of strong lasting material. I really like the selection off colors it came with also.
this is a great video, lot of good info here
Thanks!
I haven't really seen a baitfish slowly lumbering side to side either but I get the point. ; ) Keep em coming Chris.
Hi Chris, yeah, it's a dramatically different action for sure, but is a proven producer of quality fish in clear water. Just shows that fish are often a sucker for abnormal movement. Thanks for the comment and good fishing.
us east coast guys have been throwing these baits for years at stripers for years. I been tossing a big glide bait at largemouth for the last few years in early spring and late fall hold on! my son is now a believer!
Thats the beauty of a baitfish profile! Big fish of all species will munch 'em. We're looking forward to targeting pike and musky with them in 2017 - sounds like plenty of Canadians have been doing this for a while already.
great tips, thumbs up
This is gonna be my first full season swimbaiting, that 6+ will be mine soon
Great video
Nice I love this video
Big glide baits work amazing up here inbthe north east for big striped bass.
How do you fish that glide bait in thought weeds
Love the video! You got me pumped to order one of these asap! What trout color and sink rate were you using? Thanks
Hi Victor, this is the Megabass I Slide 185 in Mat Rainbow color (goo.gl/Ig8SXU). A beautiful lure specimen for sure. Let us know how it works for you.
Wired2Fish- thank you! I couldn't tell if it was mat or gloss.
Man I love these swimbait videos. #southerntrouteaters
More vids like this!
We're on it! We have a pile of fresh glide bait / swimbait content coming. Just in California filming with some of the best. Stay tuned...
Great vid as always. I too never understood why people say when the bait does a 180, bass cant stand it. Thats the most ridiculous marketing pitch for these glide baits. You'll never see a shad or a bluegill do a 180 on a bass, unless it already got half eaten.
Emjay Ive personally had them bite when ive done a 180 , but i think its a reaction bite.
Yep, you'll never see a pink and chartreuse forage fish but they'll pound those lures.

It’s bc they won’t eat it tail first bc of the fins.
So when it stares right at them it’s and easy meal.
Vladimir Coopmeiano some of it may be a reaction bite but pretty sure it’s bc it an easy meal.
I always wondered with glide baits, can you reel it in at a steady speed without pauses or does the action not work like that
Stoney Lonsome I keep getting no strike followers on my crankbaits. I’ve tried everything the last few days to get a bite and saw one of the biggest bass I’ve ever seen in the pond that I’m fishing. Did exactly as you described: got right up to my kayak, made eye contact with me, and said “Nice try pal” hahah... swear I heard him laughing at me as he swam back down to the depths.
Straight retrieves absolutely work….I use them all the time
How are you getting those treble hooks to stay tucked up along the lure like that?
On that bait there is a small magnet
Keeps it simple, KISS
What kind of ratio would be the best for glide baits
Something around that 7.1:1 is a good blend of line pickup but with enough power to handle big fish.
I don't have a lot of glide bait experience but he's rite, everytime I turn the bait around to look at the fish it spooks them
Here's a good glide bait learning video --> czcams.com/video/sTA-5RqjzH4/video.html. It's an interesting lure category for sure.
What retrieve ratio do you prefer ?
Hi Matt, in general a reel in the 7.1:1 area is a good choice. You may even want to scale back to a 6.2:1 for winching power around cover. Our buddy Oliver Ngy does a good job covering the right equipment for glide baits in this video: czcams.com/video/aa2DpwWBNYg/video.html
how do you get your hooks to lay back like that and stay in place
The Megabass baits are built with a magnet in the body that keeps their hook harnesses pinned back to the body like that. Mag Slowl and Mag Draft have those names for the "magnet" in their belly. Their I Slide glide baits do as well.
EMJAY.....Ikr
what color will be good for southern Minnesota?
Depends on the primary forage base, which I'm assuming is bluegill and probably some baby carp depending on the lake. The I Slide 135 GG Bass and Sunshine Gill are intriguing: goo.gl/OYafJ4
Thanks. . Very helpful. .nice vid
hmm. Invisx? I bought 20 AbrasX after reading a Butch Brown article :( Hope it works for me this spring!! Yaay! :D
Hi Michele, you'll be in good hands with your AbrasX purchase. All these guys have their own preferences, but content and recommendations from Butch is golden. Good luck.
ur very pretty girlfriend
I know this is from a while ago, but I've used both and definitely prefer invisx. Abrazx is still great, (all seaguar is top quality) but between the two, I like invisx. Have you tried 20 lb mono at all? I use it often, especially glides and big topwater. Heavy mono doesn't stretch like lower lb test does. And since it floats, it gets tangled in your treble hooks less often. If you impart action using the rod, give a second before you restart ur retrieve. This allows the bait to sink just below the line and reduces tangles. For mono, I go with 20lb Suffix. It's not expensive, but high quality. They also level wind the line which is much better. Hope that helps!
@@shesbitchingimfishing5302 lol 😆
Out here in the West, Largemouth Bass bite just about anything that's moving, and will fit in their mouth. I like the action of that lure but I'v owned large aquariums with Bass and they are a lot less inclined to bite a smaller fish that looks like one of their own (baby Bass). I would like to see this lure shaped into a a more appropriate skinny minnow. There should also be padding in the split to prevent any clacking sounds coming from the body action.
Cliff Curtis Deps 250 is completely silent as it swims
I just started using swim bait lures very similar to these and have had reasonable luck with them. My next swim bait lures Im going to try are the jbg00ds live strike fishing lures. Theyre damned natural, you can get them without or with Owner trebles.
If you want the their page, just google jbg00ds Live Strike Lures
Funny thing. Every time I saw people with those baits and looked at the price I would be like. Pffft whatever. But they do catch fish.
Using a bait casting rather than a spinning reel? Interesting.
I just have a hard time buying the 110(jerk bait) at $25! I would cry so hard if i lost this bait!!1
i lost mines shore fishing back in January. i took off my cloths and jumped in after it lol...
Dude that's nothing. Some lures go for waaaay more.
Birdman-12 buy the bass pro shops Xps it’s 12.99
....ans some of these cost more than your rod and reel. Even the cheap ones cost 25-50 dollars. Yes, you read it right, 25-50 dollars and that's the low end.
price is relative, people who throw swimbaits are committed to the practice and so yes, 20 to 50 dollars is quite affordable even for a younger guy like me who's still in school
that glide bait sucks
Talk too much less action.just like the PBB or NATO.its No Action Talk Only
That bait action is terrible Fr
We disagree.
