Why I’m Disappointed with Core Tackle (Underwater Footage)

In this video, I take an honest, in-depth look at Core Tackle products to see how they actually rig up and perform under the surface. Core Tackle has gotten a lot of hype lately, but after testing these rigs extensively on the water and putting them in front of the underwater camera, I have to share my honest thoughts and disappointments.

We test and review three key setups:

The Ozark Rig: Looking closely at the hook design and why the oversized lead profile tends to blow out and tear up soft plastic baits before you even make a cast.

The Hover Rig: Breaking down the rigging process and why the hook’s lead profile makes it nearly impossible to rig soft plastics cleanly.

The TUSH (The Ultimate Swimbait Hook): The one standout that actually rigs cleanly and delivers solid underwater action.

Whether you’re looking to upgrade your finesse fishing or swimbait presentation, check out the underwater footage to see how these rigs look below the surface and decide if they’re worth a spot in your tackle box.
