What I've learned of finesses fishing is thinks to u I had a friend hook me up one winter when all I know was to power fish homie hooked me up with some zman and your channel. Can't help but go to what I'm comfortable with but when that doesn't work I look to the zman ned rig 👍🏽
Where are the videos you said you would link in the description box? I don’t see them.
Just bought the Ned rig kit.
I bought all the kits, 3 hats, trying to lose weight so I can fit those smedium shirts you sell, and I got 2 Stickers the Black and White!!! It’s time to refill my swim bait kit a lot of snags here and I wish those big eye jigs were sold in bulk 20 or more in a case that would be the move!!! Anyway Tight Lines Homie #Vibes
any tips on frogs
Brian Latimer I just received my order a couple of days ago. I got a spinner bait and the famous yoga pants. Can’t wait till everything gets stocked back up so I can get a XXXLg BLat shirt. Thanks for what you do.
Great clasp. Rigid interior shelves. czcams.com/users/postUgkxBrJOMRANMI82dPOK0qoDtHhP-JpbErUg Yeah the shelves sometimes get misaligned with their supports in the lid if you don't have the lid fully flat, or you twist the shelves as you're pulling them out, but pretty much a non issue; just reseat and you're fine. Some spools of thread are a little too big and cause the shelves to not close all the way, however with the clasp you can still get the lid locked if the shelves aren't completely collapsed without breaking things ... so far.
I've kept my plastics in it's original package from the 90's and surprisingly they're still good thru the Arizona heat! Great content!
Thanks, just ordered a KVD speed bag because of your recommendation. Great info, I was definitely not storing my Zman plastics properly, but I will now!
*Exceeded my expectations **enjoyable.fishing** recommend in quality & appearance - bought this for my 9 yr old daughter, but would recommend it for any age girl*
Thanks your videos are the best when it comes to explaining who to use the plastic
You are one of the best because of this video. I wanted to find out why we have to keep it in the bag and you answer the question. Thank you very much for the video.
You’re the best B-lat! 👊🏼
Brian,
I wish I knew this a year or two ago. I store all my plastics in gallon size zip locks. I found out the hard way Elaztech does not play well with other types of plastics. I keep some in my car all summer long in a shore bag for quick on the go bank fishing. Most of my Z-Man plastics are in that bag because I like using them that much. I found out this year some fused together like the Zinkers and Hula Sticks. They also flattened a bit. Going forward I will store them as you recommend however I have a sizable stash of ZMan products that were exposed to high temps. My other plastics do not seem to be effected-Yamamoto mostly. I use ZMan more than other products so I will be shopping for some storage bags and keeping them upright. Thank you for the tip. I am sure other plastics can benefit from this storage method.
Thanks for the good info. Im guilty of being lazy sometimes and not putting my zman ned back in the bag when i switch baits. It ends up in my backpack or in a plano box and usually doesnt survive, especially in the heat. Its a good reminder. Those long speed bags are a great idea. 👍👍
Ty, was just looking up videos on this.
I have found that the Plano ammo cans work very well also as cheap! just not so great if you are planning to take lots of baits, but they definitely fit enough for a trip and best part they have a water seal so when closed they don’t get wet! I also use them for line storage!
Great video man!
Excellent for the purpose I got it, room enough and easy to look
Great video and a lot of good tips 👍
Nice presentation. Just started getting back into fishing after some health problems for a few years. Discovered your site while surfing the web. Signed up and liked. GO FISH.
Great ideas Sir !
Great info
Enjoy your videos Brain 👍👍
I like the bag Idea.
Great video Brian. (nice name. lol) Love the video. As my collection of plastics grows, I need to find something to put them in when I get on a small boat like my buddy's little 10 footer, or a bigger boat when I am ocean fishing. Either way, thanks for the info.
I do the same thing with Wal-Mart shoe boxes, Makes it easy to load and unload the boat based on the time of year. I have some boxes, like big 11 inch worms for example, that may stay in the house until about May or June, I also have hot weather grass specific boxes that won't be in the boat until summer. I don't know, may look into those speed bags, might take up a little less space! Most important thing though, no matter if it's Zoom, Gene Larew, Zman, keep the baits in their original packages, saves money and headaches!!
That Plano Edge for the Crankbaits is a Game Changer!!! No more Shakey shakey shakey to get them loose!!!
B.Lat u turned me on to the Fattyz in one of your videos about a year ago. And i used your favorite color with success. Thank u buddy. I guess i will have to try yoga pants color in TRD and I do not have any Ticklerz or hula stixz,,,yet. Thanks for doing the storage video. Im a bank fisherman that needs some storage ideas for my plastics and lures to store my tackle stock in my garage. Maybe ill try those kvd bags for my plastics.
Great informative video! First time seeing your content. I’ll be back.
This year I am going to try and fish more z man plastics
I just opened one of my tackle boxes and theirs 2 elastic baits down the bottom, a swimfeeder was rested against the big one and had totally melted on the side that was resting against the rubber lure.
Another swimfeeder was gently touching another elastic bait and only had a little meltage because of this.
I was baffled, the only conclusion i came to that made sense was the chemicals in the 2 different items react when in contact. ie. The hard plastic melts when in contact with the rubber lures, i was right 🙌💪👏.
PS. Glad it wasn't the £20 lure that melted, it's caught my first big pike.
Hey Brian Z man quit making the 3 inch scented leach My favorite color was green pumpkin my best winter drop shot bait if you can get them on your website do a couple vids bring them back please
Dude, Nice Video
🤣🤣🤣stopped the vid and tried to answer my phone when yours rang. Nice vid, tried the ned last year after watching one of your vids. TRD is the truth!
It never fails! Someone calls when I film every time
Hey b.lat I can’t wait for y’all to come to Rayburn
Any information about your fish and camp/schools?
I like to switch colors alot..so being new to zman products how do i keep my baits i already rigged stored? Razor shad on jackhammers etc?
Question can I take soft plastic baits out of there package and put them into tackle boxes or will they get hard? Like bandits bugs and senko and etc
I learned this lesson the hard way. No worries though, still great baits.
Just wondering where I can get the right plastic bags to store my Home made plastics in and IF I have some the bag is no longer usable where can I get just bags.
What if you buy in bulk and they don't come in plastic bags? Excellent video
Brian latimer if you ever get tired of that massive wall of awesomeness then send all those zmans down to tennessee would ya? In all seriousness tho. What do u do with last years stock when zman sends u the new shipment of plastics and stuff? Maybe a giveaway?
Edit: us brYans need to stick together. Lol
Good idea
Like many others in the comment list, I too learned the hard way. I wa told recently that Z-Man lures are not made of plastisol, aka plastic, but made of rubber based compounds. Let me
know if that's true. Maybe we can ask the Davis boys?
Well I also learned the hard way,dipped a hula stick n some jjs magic few years ago and what I dipped in there just evaporated...great tips blat....do u prefer straight floro or braid to floro when finesse fishing? Thx
Yeah all bad man!
Zman should have double sided plastic molds in the bags for better protection.
What about storing soft plastics in their original bag but in a large Plano water proof box?
Are you running Garmin Electronics this season?
Really gonna put in more time with the Hula Stick this year.
Hahaha! I wish you had made this video about 6 months ago. I ruined a bunch of Z man baits & the plano boxes I tried to store them in. Wasn't any chance that goo was going to come out of those boxes. Now I keep them in the original bags & I line the packs all up in shoebox sized rubbermaid storage tubs & I only take what I need for the day. Great video man!
How do they hold up if you dip them in some magic or if you put any other attractant on them? I've never added it to the ones that I've used, but the bass aren't too picky where I fish.
Yeah I did the same thing at first
@@BrianLatimerFishing Well, I'm just glad I'm not the only one. LOL
@B Lat - They have liquid that adds a scent? to plastics, is it ok if I ad it to the bag & store the plastics in the scent juice?
Yes sir!
What size bag are you using small or large?
What happened to zman bait binders?
The trd tubz are the hardest to keep good
1000% True even some of the old lures. I have had of my favorite vintage flipping tubes 6” and 7” Clycone baits Hardhead flipping tubes. And they stick to the Plano box.... I ruined 30 so just from having them stored improperly. They don’t make em like that anymore. God bless Kennith Hick of Stubborn Hicks Outdoors he gave me his stash free. I will sell them $5 😂a pop!

Can you keep them on the hooks and put it back in the plastic bag?
"It don't work good..." 😂
-B-LAT
Have you ever used the boxes that u can get from the dollar store like plastic boxes about the size of a shoe box ?
I've used them for years! You can actually get sizes that fit the Zman original bags. So much cheaper than what BLat uses.
That's exactly how I store mine, except I use a mid range lunchbox from Wally world.
I have before too
Do NOT EAT SOFT PLASTICS 🤮🤮
I cant picture what your speaking of when u say a mid range lunch box? Are u talking about a metal lunch box kids use in elementary school? Or can u elaborate more for me. Thank you
@@masfishing1 No I'm talking about this kind i have this exact one, except I have the 12 can version.

It's only like 10$ at Walmart. I guess I should have said lunch bag, but now you have the picture.
@@gregred78 Thanks for responding. Ill check it out at Walmart.
where does the storage bit feature?
B Lat for president
President of a bass club!!!
Explains why my baits turned to soup last spring/summer I thought it was reaction to heat and melting.
I’m surprised you don’t use the z man binders for storage too!
Look through his older videos. He does, if I’m not mistaken.
Elaztec from strike king was melting many years before zman came out with it....must be made about the same because they sure melt the same.
What about summer heats affect on the bait and Summertime storage?
Just direct sun
Sold!
I was using the plastic boxes for a while and exactly as you said ....... DON’T do it!!! All of mine warped and my z-mans actually melted into a huge mess of goo, had to throw it all away. Went and bought a small bag like you show and works perfectly
Hey you forgot to talk about the rod setup !!
Are you a Garmin man now??? Love my Garmin Ultra Units
From his barn to the water his beard grew like 2"
yeah... if you throw those elaztech baits in a regular box, and it’s hot out... they’ll also melt. which sucks for two reasons. one) obviously it ruins the bait. but two) it can and will ruin that specific slot in your box.
I had a ned dog just sitting in my box, I was out fishing on a hot summer day and later that night, I went to get something and it was just completely melted and molded to my box. I was pissed. i’m a shore banger, so I don’t have all of the room in the world for storage, so having to store all of my zman products in their bags just gets cumbersome. but they’re usually good baits, so I just kinda deal with it. but it also kinda blows that if I throw an elaztech swimbait on, if I throw it in my box and it’s hot out, it’ll usually end up ruined after a few days. sucks for me (us) but works out for zman I guess, cause then we have to buy new/more baits.
btw... what swimbait was that, that you held up and we’re talking about keeping their form?
hateful Joey I put my ready to tie on z rigs in a bait rap (kind with Velcro on 3 sides meant for rods and crankbaits) and they store great in pocket when shore fishing. Just don’t forget not to mix your other plastics in there.
What kind of super glue do you use for your soft plastics?
Loctite
if your plastic lure is unformed, put it into hot water and it will get the original shape back. TL
I store all my soft plastics in its original packaging in a Plano 705 utility box
Hell yeah #7 Give this man a Beard care line ..B Lat please come by channel bro Just one time 🤘🤘#2020bucketlist
👍🏾👍🏾💯💯💯
Dude rain is my ultimate kryptonite it makes me feel miserable and ruins my Jordans....😡
Btw nice gears management I'm stealing your idea ain't no shame in my game😉✌🏾
I’ve literally tried the Ned rig for a week straight. And I can not seem to hook up with fish or keep them on the line long. Can anyone give me pointers?
You need to do more of a pull hookset than a snap hookset with Ned jigheads. That's probably your issue.
Ive had better luck with the lighter ned heads 1/10 oz. The smelt color is my best.(with a chartreuse ned head) Hold that rod tip 45° up and drag it slow on the bottom with occasionally hopping it. If theres fish they will bite the ned.
Bryan Howell that’s definitely gotta be the problem because that’s how I try to set the hook
David Harrison thanks bro.. I can get the bites I just can’t seem to set the hook good enough to fight them
SALTY SARDINE I fish it kind of slow. I get a LOT of bites but I can seem to set the hook well enough to fight the fish for long
So your telling me that if you keep those z-man plastics in the original z-man bags and they are in 100 degree direct heat they will not melt together? I'll test out this theory if it's true, but something tells me it's not.
Nope
So I’m going to have to disagree with u on this one B Lat . I’ve stored these in the plastics plano boxes but the bait isn’t touching the plastic it’s wedged between other elaztec baits while it’s sitting in my boat and they still melt together. So I’m wondering if just the presence of these baits near the Plano type boxes causes this reaction.
I would say this would be the one big improvement z-man could make to gain extra market share and gain more adoption. Everything else about em rocks .
and They still melt
You have some coffee before that vid buddy you seemed a little amped up,,,,,,just kidding my z man's are stored the same way
Listen to some of your tip videos just audio no video i think if you spent a extra second describing your rig in hand you could have a pretty dope podcast
what the hell is with you people. Pretty dope iv seen this so much it makes me and a lot of others wanna puke straighten up and talk real english what are you in the Bronxs
Im not gonna get into it with you, guy with the name “thad” probably already has enough difficulties in his life. Have a good day.
@@alexchekouras1572 the name Thad is actually very common the words that is dope or that "s a real sick bait or sick whatever doesn"t even apply except it sounds like all fishermen are on dope or the word sick sounds like everything you talk about isn"t any good have a good day and i hope all of you that talk like that can be very proud of yourself"s
@@alexchekouras1572 Real American is that right you can talk like that and call yourself a real american the word dope said in the fishing world suggest"s to a lot of us that the pro fishermen use dope which is illegal to do at anytime, also the other word { sick } implies that something your talking about is garbage. Real American you and all the others that didn"t go to school should be very proud
Whats up with that garmin hat!?!?! No more lowrance?
DID YOU EVER GO OUT TO THE ANDERSON JOCKY LOTT BEFORE YOU HIT THE BIG TIME? I SELL GUNS & KNIVES THERE. UPSTATE SC BOYS REPRESENT.
Still do
@@BrianLatimerFishing NO SHIT. NEVER SEEN YOU OUT THERE. I KNOW DAMN NEAR EVERYONE. HOPE TO SEE YOU AROUND SOON. CHEERS BOSS
@@BrianLatimerFishing Aw $hyt! You a Geechi boy?
I be in Kingstree, Hemmingway, Lake City & Florence.
If school is in SC, where will it be?
Can you please spell that BIG fancy “plastic” word you used lol! Impressively cool 😎
Plasticizers. It reduces the viscosity of the plastic to make it more flexible.
Crazy how Z Man sold there elaztech formula to strike king 🤔
No sir....... that’s fake news
Brian Latimer Maybe not the exact formula but they def. jumped on that Elaztech train lol
Dustin Fox nope
That sound...in the beginning. Ya nah, with head phone's.
The crunching and crinkling gave me anxiety.... It made my ass burgers flare up....
I laughed so hard when I found out Bass Fisherman label themselves on Social media as " Athletes "
