In bass fishing, imitation isn’t just flattery — it’s part of the game. Recently, pro angler Matt Becker and Epic Baits dropped their Scan Head jig, which looks similar to the LIVE Rocker Jig I designed with Gambler Lures a couple years ago. It’s not an exact copy, but it takes the same forward-facing sonar-focused concept and puts their own spin on it.

In this video, I’m taking things a step further — prototyping a new version of the LIVE Rocker Jig for big fluke lure like the Sakamata Shad, and YOU get to help decide which one’s better. We’ll break down the design, action, and rigging options, and test them on the water to see which performs best for “jig and minnow” fishing, hover strolling, and open-water flipping. Whether you’re a tournament angler, weekend warrior, or just into bass lure design, this is your chance to weigh in on the next generation of forward-facing fishing jigs.

Looking for the next-level jig setup that’s quietly winning summer tournaments? This custom football jig technique is a serious game changer for tournament anglers. In this video, I break down how to build a better jig — from skirt to head design — and pair it with the right summer jig trailer to get more bites. Plus, I show off a sneaky wacky-style jig twist that most anglers overlook but flat-out catches bass in high pressured water. Whether you’re dragging structure, fishing brush piles, or skipping deep docks, this modified jig setup brings a fresh look that pressured summer bass can’t resist. Build your own jig and catch more bass!

In this video I show you how to fish a jig for a bass and rig up a cheat rig – a wacky rigged football jig for fishing cover and structure. Most anglers use a creature bait, a chunk, or a craw lure on the backs of their jigs so rigging something different is a way to trigger more bass to eat your lure. The wacky jig is a lure that is perfect for clear water and catching fish accustomed to seeing standard jig fishing presentations.

There are so many options when fishing a Ned Rig but I never thought I would put anything but a finesse style plastic worm on it. Today the lake offered extremely windy conditions which caused what is normally clear water to become slightly dirty and stir up. We used the wind to find bass set up on a ledge facing in to current and then adapted our Ned Rig to fish finesse but also displace water with a tailed fishing lure to attract fish with all the turbulance the wind was creating. We ended up doing a mod with a Gambler Burner Worm and then a Burner Craw. The key being the kicking tails on the baits and creating more action to call the fish in versus using a more traditional stick bait or Z Man TRD.

Here are the fishing rods, fishing line, and fishing lures we used:

Crazy square bill and jig fishing on a private Florida lake in the scorching summer sun! Charlie and I whack over 20lbs of Florida strain largemouth fishing mid depths on a sunny calm day out on the lake. Charlie told me there were giants in here and he was right! We only fished for 4 hours and caught some big fish even a 5lbs bass on while the drone was flying! It’s always fun hanging out with friends and hunting for big bass and that’s what happened today. We even found a sunken canoe with treasure bass on it! It’s always an adventure going out on Florida lakes with the potential for big bags – the week before Charlie caught 2 30lbs limits in one day! That’s insane, flat out!

Conditions: partly cloudy, upper 80’s and calm
