    Thanks Alton, I was waiting the whole video for you to explain what I was doing wrong. I couldn’t figure out why my bellow shad was always lying on its back, but now I understand- I’m such an idiot sometimes! Be well, tight lines and God Bless!

    Do you ever lose fish on that neko hack rig because I just got some and it seems like the hook eye won’t come through the plastic eye while fighting a fish? Thanks

    The Bellows Shad ...... neko rigged looks "boutros boutros ghali" !!! :)
    AJ ..... what is the heaviest nail weight available. I want to mimic Mark Zona & Power fish it --- some deep water here in Tennessee.

  • @bamadondon0495
    @bamadondon0495 Před 9 měsíci

    What were you using to neko rig with? I didn't quite catch what u said it was. Also are u sticking with that same size through all those applications you just listed except for when u want to throw the bigger one by itself?

    Do the ribs ever inhibit the hook set when rig vertical instead of flat?

    • @AJFishing
      @AJFishing  Před 8 měsíci

      I always rig it flat if I’m not using an exposed hook setup like on a spinner bait or chatter bait. Those are the only times I rig it vertical.

    Is there any way to make these last longer? They work but man they’re putting a hole in my pocket 😅

  • @davidhidalgo5662
    @davidhidalgo5662 Před 9 měsíci

    Good stuff. Also just weightless hooked through nose on busting fish. When they are school smashing shad on surface throw it out let it sink slowly. I think it looks better than a fluke style bait.

  • @joestrummer9507
    @joestrummer9507 Před 9 měsíci

    Not understanding how that "free rig" is the same as a carolina rig which brings the bait to the bottom and you drag it in. If the weight is sliding free and drops to the bottom on it's own, won't the bait falling just create a bunch of slack line and make bite detection difficult or impossible?

    • @AJFishing
      @AJFishing  Před 9 měsíci +1

      It’s in the same family in my opinion. Bite are hard to detect but not impossible. As you work the bait the bait catches up to the weight. It’s not completely on its own.

  • @davidplath7952
    @davidplath7952 Před 9 měsíci

    I really like the bait but I wish the packaging was better. The bag is too big to fit in my normal storage and I had one leak that juice all over the rest of my tackle warehouse order.

    • @AJFishing
      @AJFishing  Před 9 měsíci

      Sorry to hear that. They do have a lot of juice in them once they’ve been exposed to heat

    Just got a pack of 3.8, opened it up, gave it a gentle tug to see the ribbing and an inch of tail broke off. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? This thing won’t last one fish.
