Bass Fishing with Glide Baits - Oliver Ngy
Glide Baits
•
45m
Oliver Ngy is back on the water to talk about another, more recent development in big bait bass fishing. Unlike big soft plastic swimbaits, glide baits are usually hard plastic and designed to have a subtle side-to-side swimming action, and Oliver likens them to jerkbaits in how they are fished. Early on, most anglers just slow rolled glide baits for bass, and before fish became conditioned to them, that retrieve caught a lot of fish. In this video, Oliver dives into the tackle you need to fish glide baits, and takes you beyond just straight-winding glide baits back to the boat and hoping a bass commits to biting it.
