Thanks for watching! - Zábava
Scott I appreciate guys like you who are willing to give up their secrets to help us become better fisherman. videos like these can help us learn things in 10 minutes that took years to learn out on the water.
Brandon Swanson thanks man!!
Thanks Scott for the great video. It's amazing to me the nit picking that goes on in these comment pages. The man is a PROFESSIONAL and is trying to help YOU catch more fishing. A little tip do more listening and less nit picking. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Scott and God Bless.
I'm ah snail..I'm a use a snail knot, got to love this dude lol
I just want to Thank you for always showing us all your techniques, you always so nice as you are teaching us.
Great line...."Get the right set up or you'll get your feelings hurt!"
Gonna use that one
This was one of the first few videos I discovered Scott back when I was getting real serious about bass fishing in 2013! Awesome stuff
Yes...bobber stop...works great.
Thank you scott. I think I learned more by watching you than I have any other videos. Clear video. Clear Presentation. Would have loved to seen that knot you tied up close and clear. But still the best video I have seen so far and I watch a ton of videos.
Thank you!!
this video has really improved my pitching of the bait and the qualty of my fishing!!! Thx for the help and guidence with the pitching ... Now it is every pin point cast the is a quality bite.. Plz keep up the quality/informative videos... Paul
Thanks for the tip Scott I appreciate it.
This is the first vid I’ve seen on your channel and I’m definitely subscribing and watching more. Thank you Scott for taking the time and thoroughly explaining what’s going on in the video. Stay Cool!
great video liked how all the basics were covered including why you brake the spool with your thumb near the end of the flip.....thanks scott keep it up
Great job of explanation and content.
Much appreciated Scott!
I have that reel an the helios rod. Great set up. Keep the videos coming.
Extremely informative! Thanks for the through video from gearing to technique. You guys have my sub!
Cool deal Scott thanks for sharing..
Great info Scott Thanks
Very nice way to go about instructing that, not an easy thing to cover in just a 10 min video but you pulled it off. Good luck at this years tournaments!
your videos helped me so much man thanks!!
Love the videos keep them coming
well spoken champion there!!! Good info there
Thanks for the knowledge!
very very good tips it's gonna work great for the next time I go fishing I wanted to thank u I love your videos good job keep it up
DUDE that is some serious gear, one of my favorite episodes, was the Randall Tharp one, when you averaged 7.5lbs a fish using that stuff. I wish I lived in an area that had that stuff, to catch those BIG Mommas, son.
love it man! I have the Matt daddy and heavy action Sig, with the Helios TCS reel and love it. I fish a lot in Istokpoga and Okeechobee when meeting up with the boys. can't beat this set up. It's not to expensive and definitely worth every penny. I appreciate all you do man. Happy holidays
You the man scott!
Great video. Great advice. Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Great video. Breaking before the gig hits the water so that the tungsten weight enters the cover first will make a huge difference. Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try it out and post my first heavy cover flippin bass on my channel. I'll give you a shout-out for teaching me :)
I got the same exact breaking system on my carrot stix reels..Its amazing love it..Scott this will be my first year on the FLW Pro Tour and im really looking foward to fishing the BIG O this year..I am gonna do the first two BFL series and then move over to the tour in febuary..Figured I could get a few extra points in the BFL.
Thank you! Appreciate the help
Ty for the tips sir
Great flipping tips! I was doing almost all of them wrong. I'll be sure to follow then the next time I use the flipping technique.
Love your sarcasm! Unfortunately, people do not know what true flipping is (after it having been thoroughly explained in thousands of articles the past 40 years. How this happened I do not know. I guess most people just don't care.
Thanks Scott
Just purchased me a 7'7" Meat Stick by a local rod builder.. But now that you have the TCS okuma rod out, ill be purchasing the 7'11" model. love to flip into heavy cover debris on the TN river here in East TN!!
great video
Good video. Thank you
Great video thx
I really like it!
Thanks for video
my okuma krios has the same breaking system as well as a magnetic on the outside very good reel
Thanks 👍🎣
Sure doing a good job marketing that reel haha !!. Making me think of possibly getting one haha.
THANX FROM IDAHO! WILL TRY IT 2NITE!
Appreciate it 😎
Thanks I learned A lot
Good videos!
You have learned well Grasshopper.
The quantum accurist has the internal braking system dial too
It will fit on Revos...not sure about shimanos...should fit most of them out there. If you call Okuma and get one be sure to get the little "nut ring and screw" that keeps the nut from backing off. You'll love'em
Check out the Okuma Helios reel...super light and cast great!
I use 24k one ounce gold weights. Sure it's a bit costly but it adds that extra smidgen of flash when I'm punching pads.
Remember kids bass are snobs ,so give gold a try the next time you head out to your favorite private pond or public lake.
Forgot to mention that bobber stopper your using to peg that weight. Very informative vid!
Awesome. The Snell Knot, could you do an up close video of just how to tie it? It was very difficult to see how you tied it. Need to get me some TK130 5/0 hooks and some heavy braid so I can get busy pitching and flipping. Thanks again. See you on the water.
Nice vid
Ur the man!👍💪 My cousin said i gt my Feelings hurt.
thanks I,learn so much
Fuck yeah ! Your hired !! Thanks for that great info . Keep up 🎣
great video scott, however it wouldve been great to have the camera even closer, like right up in plain site to where the hook is when tying the snell knot to the hook.
keep up the awesome work =0)
awesome video. i love all your videos!! really helps me catch fish!! much respect and appreciation. just one question brotha. do you prefer braided line on all your bait casting set ups?
Scott Martin for first place in next 5 tournaments
Hey Scott thank for these tips they help a lot. Are usually fish a lot of South Florida canals. At a point the worms were proving deadly when I went fishing. Lately the bite with the worms has not been as hot. What beach do you recommend as a consistent grassy Cannal fishing? Please advise. It's been a tough week with the worm lol
I like the diawa samurai 70 or 80
Also do you feel that jigs will work as well? I don't think I've ever seen crawdads around those canals so I don't know if a presentation that imitates crawdads would be efficient. Please advise. Thank you sir
Scott I have a question I hope you'll answer. which rod do you recommend for up to 10 Oz swimbaits: the guide select or the concept c3-40x? thanks
I will a snell knot video soon
There is a little knob on the left side of your baitcaster that you can turn to apply either more brakes or less. Or you twist the left side and push the pins in or out on the internal braking system
I missed what reel you were using, I dont think you repeated it enough.
70 diawa samurai braid is what I was using.
nice
New to fishing. Are flip jigs mostly for fresh water or can you use them for salt water. I’m on Long Island so mostly salt water over here
is that a bobber stop to peg the tungsten weight in place on the bruiser intruder?
I wonder if this can still be applied for bank fising for those who don't have a boat.
Big Difference - With a 5.1 you can't get enough momentum to hardly get above the grass when reeling out...then you bait and hook crash into everything the entire way back the boat and then your hung up a bunch more...that is a wasted time in my opinion. With my 7.3 Okuma I am in and out all day...much more efficient.
More Flips + More efficient = More Fish
So I guess I am asking a flipping 100 question. What are the settings on the reel relative to the adjustment know and magnetic resistance. I know you said like 2 on the magnetic brake but what about the tension knob. How free is the spool?
When you're fishing isolated cover, yes. But for heavy cover, you want to make as many casts as possible to try and catch more fish.
I think it's possible if there's a ton of vegetation near the shore. I've tryed it before, but I didn't catch anything. I bank fish too.
I prefer a 5/0 or 6/0 hook
Scott I honestly love u my dream is to live on lake Okechobee and catch huge bass like you but I don't have the money for a expensive rod and reel like that what would u suggest I get in the range of about $200 for both rod and reel
I just purchased a Okuma Scott Martin TCS 7' H for a flippin rod. Was this a good choice?
+The Camo'd Korean that will work for worms and smaller jigs..7.6H for the thick stuff
Knowledge..damn I live in lockdown state May, 2020
Can I use the lunkers 7’3 ex h or is a ex h way to much
“Get in the hole, stroke 2-3 times and I’m out.” -Scott Martin
Will that handle work on other reels that aren't okuma
Quantum pt energy reel has that internal breaking system
What are the best times of year to flip?
What reel is used in this video
Thanks Scott - do you ever find fish prefer slower rate of fall - i.e. smaller weight (3/4oz?) if still able to get it through the mat consistently?
Murray Moore always try to go as light as possible while still being efficient. Or if they want that extra few 1/4 ounces or so so it falls faster that'll just have to do. Just play around with the weights until you can get through the mat efficiently and get the most bites
The Cajun Angler - thank you much appreciated.
In my opinion yes because it doesnt move the bait much in 1 turn than a 7:3.1 does, it really doesnt matter if you can reel it out faster by one or two seconds, its not like the 5 is that much slower.
How do u set ur brakes on your baitcaster when pitching
What kind of braid do you prefere
I prefer bait casting equipment all the way. Much more accurate and you will have more control of the bait.
So I'm looking at a flipping rod. Up in the mid-atlantic we don't have nearly the size fish as down south, nor do we have the types of heavy cover that grows on the Okie. I wonder if a flipping stick is really necessary. I can get a 7'3" or 7'6" rod that will work for other purposes.
However if I do really need to get a proper flipping stick, how critical is the weight rating on the rod? The one I am looking at is rated at up to 1.5 oz. I'm told by some that when flipping I'm not loading the rod, so that's not important, but when pitching (likely what I'll be doing more of) I will be loading it, but maybe not all the way.
So...thoughts on lure weight ratings on Rods?
Michael Davis if you have moderate cover I'd go with a 7'6 heavy. And if you don't have much cover go with the 7'3 heavy.
after I got pretty good with my bait caster I brought the brakes way down. I was fine until like three casts in. I went to throw my trick worm way down the bank and boom... I caught a bush behind me and got the worst backlash of my life. It took like 10 to 15 min. to get out
The Tampa Tadpole instead of picking it out, try putting your thumb on spool with some pressure and give handle 1/4 turn or so. Hit release button and try pulling line out. May take a few attempts.
Would u recommend this technique for smallmouth bass fishing?
+BornToCatch Hell no!
C'mon Martin - Hook one for us!! :P
Whats your rod and reel set up ?
What size tk 130 do you use? Prefer?
Wouldn't it make more sense to have a lower ratio reel when flippin?
