Hey, what's up guys?
Nick the informative fisherman here on behalf of Lucky Tackle Box and today we're going
to be breaking down the Lunkerhunt Link.
So we're in early spring.
This water temperature is getting close to sixty degrees I know bass are going to be
moving up, so what I like to do is start paralleling the shoreline with this bank or grass line.
So if you look at this wall right here as a prime example, that's something I can parallel.
I can make a long cast right down it and when you work this bait, you're just going to give
it a twitch and reel.
Twitch, twitch, reel, twitch, twitch, reel.
You want to progressively always be taking up line as you're twitching that rod.
What that's going to do is it's gonna impart that walk-the-dog action, which is really
critical to bring up bass to hit this.
Now walking bait like this for other targets, you can bring fish up.
Especially in the post spawn in the fall, those fish love to come up and blast the top
water bait.
So another popular target would be a point leading out of a spawning bay.
Now a spawning bay, for the post spawn, is one of those shallow, flat, hard-bottom areas.
An area where you've seen bass spawning, the nearest deep water ledge during that post
spawn, that is going to be a great bait.
It'll also be a great bait the first thing in the morning and in the evening, also when
you see those spawning fish because not all the time do all the bass move up and spawn
at the exact same time.
And in the fall, they're going to get right in shallow again in and around boat docks,
they could be out on main lake points and out in the mouths of those creeks.
And as it gets closer to winter, those fish are gonna push back in those creeks and follow
those shorelines in, so the Link here is a perfect bait for pulling 'em up.
It looks just like two shad.
Now when you look at the Link here, what makes it unique, it looks like two smaller top water
baits connected together, so you have a total of three treble hooks.
When this thing's jerking back and forth, it looks like shad trying to avoid being attacked,
which gives the bass a whole nother look.
Now since this bait has so much hinging action, as I'm twitching you see me continue to reel.
I don't throw in a big twitch and a pause, because it has so much turn, it could come
over and get your braid.
So I'm doing a progressive little line pickup as I'm doing those downward twitches to walk-the-dog,
but to keep that line semi-tight out in front of it to prevent those hooks from hooking
that braid.
Now when it comes to setup I'm using, surprisingly enough the Link is not very heavy, which is
nice because a lot of top water baits are real heavy and when that bass comes up and
shakes his head they can leverage it off with those smaller treble hooks.
So I'm not using a beefy rod, I'm using a medium heavy, moderate fast see it's got a
lot more taper and this a seven foot two rod.
You don't need anything overly special, just a basic worm rod, the rod you're going to
go out and throw a senko on, it's the same rod you can go out there and throw the Links
on.
I like to throw it on 50 pound braid, everybody wants to yell and scream and holler, "Fifty
pound braid!
What are you fishing for, marlin?"
No, you're making long casts.
When that bass comes up, and squats on a 80, 90 foot cast and you need to do is reel and
lean on them with that 50 pound braid.
If he misses, you don't want to jerk it away and send it sailing through the air, if you
reel and lean on him, if you got hooks on him a little bit with that braid, its going
to dig those treble hooks in.
Now that being said, with that I do like to have my drag set to where it's not overly
hard.
I don't want to tear those treble hooks free of that bass.
I want him to be able to turn with it a good amount of pressure to where you're still going
to be able to horse that fish and keep that rod bent the whole time.
But that's my setup for that, I like a real fast reel.
Seven to one reel, I like to be able to pick up line fast, if I see bass boiling over there,
I want to reel it in fast, fire it back off.
Just like that, that faster reel's going to keep that tension on that fish whether he
takes drag or not.
Those prime conditions are your low light hours, but if it's fall and they're chasing
shad or if you see shad on your school or you physically see shad with your eyes busting,
you can pull this out and really get them.
There doesn't seem to be a better bait that, in regards to matching shad, truly looks like
versus the Links here which is an incredible little deal.
So, in regards to my conditions, first thing in the morning, later in the evening, overcast
days, even at nighttime you can get out there and catch them.
Surprisingly enough not enough guys fish at nighttime for bass, but its phenomenal.
Bass year round especially in the summer time, get out real shallow, right up along the bank
at nighttime.
Get out there, look for those full moons, get your eyes comfortable to that dark light
and you can catch a lot of fish right at nighttime with that Link.
Now you probably heard me say when setting the hook on this bait, you don't need to slam
it home you just need to reel into them and lean.
That being said, a lot of people still have the tendency of jerking.
If those treble hooks are exposed and you jerk up, you're throwing a bunch of slack
on top of your bait, your braid's gonna get back on top of your bait, you're gonna miss,
you're gonna pull it away from the fish.
So what you want to do when you're working this bait, you're naturally gonna be walking
the dog with your tip down, okay?
Tips down as they hit, sweep down, push that rod tip into the water and no matter what,
you will not launch that bait out of the surface.
And if they did miss, it looked like it ran away and they'll run it back down for another
strike.
