1: 10” triple trout
2: slide swimmer 250
3: 7” bull gill
4: alpha shad
5: 8” hudd
these baits are constant producers for me and are worth a look
Thanks for sharing!
Battles shad has been responsible for some of the biggest bass I have ever caught (and lost), and I don't even like throwing soft bait that often unless I have to. So thanks for designing an amazing soft bait that I actually enjoy throwing!
Thanks Randy!
You are a mad scientist when it comes to modifying baits....I need to get a hinkle and a 9in. Battle shad.
Your awesome Mike and I greatly appreciate all the info and tips you give 👊👊🍻🍺👍
Awesome video dude!!
Anything Mattlure would be next IMHO..
Love the videos, they teach me alot on swimbaiting
You really killed on the battleshads. Never gave this bait a single thought. I was just like like oh good for him another option for some guys.
Then I had a buddy who gave me a citizen started just to get thumped. I cant believe I did it even give this bait the time of day. Like you said far exceeded my expectations. I consider this bait I staple just like The Slammer or hudd in people's tackle boxes. You nailed it and the bass agreed as well.
I’m enjoying this series bro! Keep’em coming👍🇺🇸
Thanks!
Cant wait for a restock on battleshads!
Love the new vids, thanks for the info. What are your thoughts on Mothers and negs?
Great video I subbed from NJ thanks for the info
What test pound line do you use when throwing the hinkle trout just ordered one and want to make sure I use the right line thanks awesome videos man
Great video as always. Im looking into getting a hinkle and was wondering if the shad has those rubberized joints, as i have a lot of big gizzards in my lake. Any feedback will be appreciated.
Can u do a video on how u modified the deps 250
good stuff man as always.
Thanks Thomas
thats one thing i want the most is the hinkle trout
More rants.......keep em comin!
What size and style hook do you use on the battle shad. Thx
Great video
What spray paint did u use on the Hinkle
Do you like to use the natural trout color?? It’s a killer
Awesome, video. Very informative. Bet alot of these big swim baits would lay the hammer on these Muskys down here on the Wis waters I fish.
Tim Myers muskies smash them here in northern utah !! Try em out
How are they the best if you have to mod or tweak
Where can I buy a battle shad 9.0?
watta you fish it with bro?
Why are there never any baits in stock on your website?
How can i order a battle shad?
I've had sTUPID amount of luck on soft plastic only because a lot of where I fish is like 90% grass.. I have an s wave 200 an the biggest soft plastic I've had so far was that boom boom swimbait from mtb.. BUT I would love to buy some of your baits what size and color would you suggest i like white and natural colors but I wanna try something new I like baby bass alot too love your videos
We had package thieves in my neighborhood stealing packages and I had made an order with a 7.5 in it and it was stolen. Worst part is some tweeker that stole my order of stuff probably threw away my tackle and my 7.5 and now they are hard to find and sold out almost everywhere.
Where can I get your swim bait shad 9 inch I’m in AZ Hook up ?
Hey Mike just picked up my first Baitsmith Mag. Super stoked. What sz line do you recommend? Was thinking CXX 20 or 25?
I use 20lb Seaguar AbrazX
Best swim for fl shallow water lakes.thanks
What bait would u throw most if u fished AZs urban lakes? I've had success on the 175, bullshad, and Robs swimbaits but im looking for another to add to my urban arsenal since its different to the fish from the typical conventional fish see daily in these pressured waters, thx!
Sounds like you might need to hit them at night with a wake bait
I don't care what you say... there is a perfect bait. I ....subbed anyway because I like people with experience behind their opinions!
Everyone should have their own opinion carved from their unique experiences. Thanks for the sub.
What is the perfect bait,I would Love to know please???
Hey do you know how to get in touch with Mike long I'm not a hater
What color you recommend for battle shad 9.0?
Tesla or Midnight Shad
Is the battle shad still being produced? Who makes it?
Greg Thomas Working class zero makes it, Mike Gilbert, the guy in this video. Great bait, I just bought 3 more.
You def know what’s up on Big Swimz I Am a big fan of the 3/16s, also the HUDS But like you said to many dudes throwing them and Posting blah blah blah I’m a middle of the night NINJA FISHING CITY PARKS, GOLF COURSES,PRIVATE Community puddles, trailer park ponds, Then you get it some knuckle heads throwing up all the spots online. I’ve done VERY WELL IN THE BLACKDOG SHELLCRACKER, AND SMALL CRACKER When the Bluegill start spawning a lot of 5-8lb fish on the big CRACKER. 3 of then in a park lake at noon and 95 degrees.nothing like getting blown up on by a BIG OL PRE SPAWN GIRL. MOVED From OC to Low dessert we used to drive 3hours to fish tournaments and now I live 20 min from like 5 GREAT LAKES. SKINNER, DIAMOND VALLEY, PERRIS, CANYON, OTAY, DIXON. BUT NO BOAT LOL
5” Easy Shiner
4.8 Keitech
5.8 Keitech
6.8 Keitech
3.8 Keitech
I've caught more fish on a 3.8 Keitech Sun Gill color then almost all my other baits combined I also like the Jackal Gantarel Jr and the Mega Bass Vitalion both in Bass color...
“Baitsmith Magnum: Good Luck”... LOL
Hey would you do that eye mod on the Hudd too.
Cut out the eye with a razor blade and super glue in a glass eye. I believe the Hudd eyes are 8.5 mm
Working Class Zero thank you I will try it.
I just cant wait to buy some Battle Shad , in my South East PA ... I think I need to upgrade my Rod 😒.. ( Skeet Reese Carolina/Swimbait )
Abdel Avila what is it rated to? How many oz?
Do you throw anything that isn't a big bait, besides the A-rig
Frogs when I fish occasionally in the summer
When are you stocking your store up again on swimbaits?
This weekend most likely.
More people need to stop fishing and take the time to just go out and study how the fish are feeding where the fish are feeding and how the fish that are being fed on react to being chased and fed on by the bigger fish. Then you can fish any where and catch fish.
Y'all need to pay attention to this statement right here!!!!! Sage advice
“It mattered in my mind and that’s the most important thing”
What would be your next two bait choices? :)
Probably an 8" Hudd, a 7.5 Battles Shad and then a Wake Jr.
What's your take on 316 Rising son
Great bait
Have you ever fished bluegill style swimbaits? Love the vids!
Of course. They have a time and place
The infamous baby wake! The lake San Marcos night time killer.
Of course
I’m surprised that the Roman made mother in the background didn’t make the list
Ever mess with the UFO gill that came out
Great video as usual Mike..... But wtf is that 5 piece shad behind you 👀👀
That is a Hinkle prototype. Its years old now. Cool bait too.
You always get the cool shit lol
1. 9” slammer 2.250 3. Shine glide 4.7.5 battle shad. That’s all I got right now lol all I fish anyway
Colin Tillman the Baitsanity te9 is a good glide for the money, i really like fishing the Gigantarel by jackall also, there are too many to name but do u have a price limit?
kushcrumbleshatter1990 i have plenty of other baits, it’s just a toss up for number 5 lol
kushcrumbleshatter1990 but thank you
Colin Tillman oh i see wat ur saying
Colin Tillman have you fished the 10in mag draft? I've had sum good luck with that one too
Woohoo. I'm 1k like'r.
Wheres all the WCZ fans and likes at?
I can only imagine how many tens of thousands of dollars are in that room. and what he’s spent on baits. although I know he’s sponsored by some killer companies. which he definitely deserves for all he’s done for the sport.
Outside of DRT, I've paid full price for almost all of the baits I have. I'm not much of a collector so there really isn't tens of thousands of dollars worth.
I want one of those shirts so bad but 30 for the t and 10 bucks for shipping is steep af

Who makes the 316 babywake
Charles Ryan 3:16
but im about to try and get a mag
rowenvandergriff no longer made. You’ll have to find them used in forums or Facebook groups.
oh i know
We need a bait mod vid
For what bait?
Working Class Zero any swimbait alterations you make to help increase efficiency
Sell me some of those 9.0s??🥺
Also could you do a video on up ad coming builders with nice but more affordable lures if know of any?
Yea , none of that stuff maters , HUDDS are the only thing available.... I TRY A FEW TIMES, THEN MOVE ON AND DON'T LOOK BACK
Your designed bait is all sold out. Discontinued?
Colab?
I would need a kick ass lure retriever before i cast $90 into the water.
fancy seein u here bruce lol. i always keep a pair of goggles on me incase my swimbait gets snagged to go diving
You had like 3 grand worth of swim baits hanging in the back in that one spot. I can only imagine how much damn money you've spent on fishing in your life.
Good God, how much money do these youtubers make? $150 dollar lures and he's gone through a bunch of them.
holy fuck. the baby wake is $180. jesus.

Thats up to you. I'm just running the standard CPS for the time being.
