@WheelerFishing won the MLF tournament on Lake Guntersville using a technique called mid strolling much like fishing a Keitech Swimbait but slower using a minnow type lure. Jacob talked about how to catch fish with this rig during the summer but we go into how to fish it for prespawn bass and what rod and reel setup I use.

Mike definitely knows his s**t๐ฏ๐
I think it was gussyโs first but whatever
Mickey, I just noticed something. I was watching you teach use about this bait, then it hit me. The fish are biting on a calm day there on lake Guntersville and I know you love to fish. You quit fishing to show us what to do with this bait and how to make the right presentation with the right rod, reel and line. You know, you are amazing. Thank you for making videos. Period.
Yeah you don't need to hit the Bass Opens because I need these types of vids from you. Your vids are super informative.
I just wish Pickwick Lake rebounds. So far this winter, it has been near impossible to find bass. Heck! Even the go to white bass bite is nonexistent. It's kinda concerning that this year, my normal winter bite is just not there. Talked to some of my friends and the only bite is in 40 ft of water. Literally showed me FFS recording of where they are at on Wilson and Pickwick on super deep ledges. I've all but given up bank fishing and I rarely get a chance to get on a boat to target those deep bass. ๐ญ
Mikey is such a real YouTuber he wants the best not some bs
Hey Mikey, good stuff once again! But do you think you could do one for those of us that donโt have forward facing sonar. I run Ti2 on my boat. This will greatly help my son, and I learned this technique! You and Boggs rock!
Since finesse fishing has become so popular Iโm waiting for the winding technique using the BR fish to blow up in the bass scene since the hover stroll and mid strolling have been so popular. I think once it catches traction over here in the states everybody on YouTube will be making videos of it.
Totally awesome thanks
Iโve been thinking about buying the newer version of the Diawa exeler that you showed in the video, so I was wondering about if there is any free play in the knob and your overall experience with the reel.
When you put the bait too close to the bass …the Bass is saying…."It's a fake!! Even a baitfish isn't that dumb"…๐คฃ๐คทโโ๏ธ
5-7' above the bass says…"HeHeHe…You don't know I'm here!๐คฃ
I donโt know why guys are not
Slip bobber Crappie style fishing
them
Spinning rod with big Diameter
Guides because your braid bobber stop will need to be reeled up on the spool for like 20โ deep stuff
Use your rod as a measuring stick
for setting up your bobber stop

Water is a little hard right now for me to try this technique but early spring Iโll definitely give it a go !
Enjoyed this man, thanks for the info.
The Crappie Dudes loop knot and are the masters of finesse
Sounds like an awesome technique Mikey,thank you for sharing,hello Mr Bog โค
Ffs is hunting
You catch some really nice alabama bass!!! If they were true spotted bass you betterr get a hold of IGFA because the world record spot is 2lb 4oz.Caught in the Trinity river in Texas๐thanks for sharing Mikey!
Fantastic break down brother! Very informative. That technique has been a blast for me this winter
Cool tips but this isnโt a new technique. We been tight lining for years. Itโs just now we can see it in real-time.
I should try this in the creeks and eddys or on points. No ffs , yet, but fishing deep.is 6ft down here in Okeechobee ๐.
Shakey Shad Watermelon Blue Core by Gambler all day… That bait is my go to for neko rigging as well.
Why talk about that mush mouth clown? ๐คก It's a damiki rig. He didn't invent anything or do anything important at all. You don't have to ride his helmet.
The Sobzack's beat you to the punch, bruh'.
Great video Mikey! I love strolling for bass in the winter time!
i gotta try this now..
What is the most difficult thing for you in your studies?๐
Loving the new intro! Great detail about this deadly ffs technique.
Should an ideal vacation be passive or active?๐ฅ
Dialed bro
Finesse swimbait heads are totally out of stock I wanna steal your box
