Your last video about the big EZ, you said you use a 5/0 8th oz belly weight.. so that's what I bought...lol uou owe me some gambler twist lock 7/0...haha. enjoy your videos.. thank you
Mustad has a KVD Grip Pin Hook with an offset top that the Big-EZ fits on perfect. Still has the weight. It negates the use of the screw lock & the bait still keeps the same action. Just an option if you don’t wanna mess w/ the screw lock.
The VMC 5/0 Drop Dead Screwlock in 1/8 or 3/16 is built for the #bigez has a longer shaft than most, and the belly weight is very slim and is totally centered on the hook, so the bait runs 100% horizontal and when ya kill it, it flutters to the bottom flat as a floor!
Good stuff Cody. I know you like burning it but if you ever wanna swim it, I use a technique that works really good for me to the point I only rig it this way. Try using a bobber stopper and a 1/16 or 1/8 ounce bullet weight. It gives the big ez a sleeker nose and gets the bait a foot deeper. The light weight also lets you burn it through the surface if you choose to do so.
Love me some Gambler Baits. I have even 8" EZ. I'm targeting only BIG ones . Will look on Tackle Warehouse . Here in Orlando will look for you to go out. Thanks for the content ! Any links to contact you for an outing.? Instant Sub
Slipknot here… love the pod cast, fishing video,and my setup… a few months back (aba)I did the exact set up for his spook..listen anglers no lie it works… thank you captain cody!! you have done so much to help from long distance… good luck at TOYOTA…..
Saw this like 2-3 years ago from Cody. Haven’t thrown anything else since. Owner has some good Spring Locks I pair with them. I catch more reeds than Cody though.
Great video, Cody! I use the same hook with the large Owner centering pin... caught my PB on the Silver Shadow (black&blue) color. I also love the Red Ear & Forty Niner, though as a reaction bite, I believe you're spot on by saying color probably doesn't matter. 💪👊👍
Have you noticed a change at ARK rods? I've gotten 3 rods in a row that were damaged, and their customer service doesn't even know information about the products. I'm not a pro, but I've bought at least 20 rods from them over the years and I'm about to give up.
Snook will demolish them - use it the same exact way Cody described & hold on to your underwear when they hit it 😂. Caught a 35” on the phantom color in a foot of water.

Like the Florida based videos, keep them coming.
Nice video. Was at Mayaca yesterday
Nose cones will keep it more weedless and ya can burn it on top or thru the grass, comes out clean 99% of the time

I love this series! Keep them coming.
Sure worked last week! Thanks again!
Keep it up. That was good.
Thanks again really appreciate the tips this is great.
Great video
Great video. Question do you use it for snook fishing and if so how to you rig it. Thanks
You ever rig these up on something like the zman eye-strike??
Yes sir🎣💪🏻
I'm about to start fishing these! Have one here. Great timing and great overview. Do you ever fish these for snook?

@@linesider Thanks! Appreciate the heads up. Going to try one on a 5/0 chatterbait too around the intracoastal, finger mullets showing up
