99% Of Us Make Rod Movement Mistakes - Watch Synced Video of Rod and Lure Movement
Watch how different rod movement affects fishing lures. The slightest change in how we move the fishing rod can change the way the lure acts and often we are not aware of what is really happening.

Enjoy all your content but this is one of my favorites. Had no idea how fast my lures are moving while I'm thinking that I'm going slow. Thanks Steve!
I don’t know if I enjoy this video or not. Most my reels are higher gear ratio and now I’m thinking I need to get all slower gears😩😩😩😂
Finally a video where someone isn't trying to sell me something. Thank you
He did though. lol - but it is an excellent video about how to fish a texas rigged worm. (or other rig on bottom)
Steve., this video is pure Gold! I tripped my catches using #4 and #5…..your video showed me how much I over work my soft plastics. Thank you for all of your great content! 🎣
Thanks! I'm glad it was helpful. And thank you for watching.
I am absolutely blown away by how much this video will undoubtedly help my success in fishing soft plastics and jigs I've been fishing soft plastics for 40 years and learned more in your
I second @arthurdirindinjr1792 sentiments. Thank you for sharing this great analysis on the 5 retrieve techniques. I really had no idea how much my technique actually moved the bait on the bottom. I truly learned something new today.
Amazing info. One thing I always do is play with the lure in front of me and practice how I will fish It. Some of the baits I make are sinking blend and some are floating blend which impart different movement and what not. Very importantto play with the bait and understand the ways of how to fish it before you start bombing it out there. Sometimes it takes that to understand it better because you can have the wrong reel ratio that your using and now you have to compensate because your not running a high speed ratio. Hope that helps. Anyways this man is a legend I go here for tips and tricks and I'm always satisfied.
Very smart.
Well, this shows the disconnect between what is happening and what you THINK is happening, and how important slowing down is.😮
This is amazing synchronization--well done. Appreciate all the painstaking work to present this to your viewers--kudos!
I could be wrong, but with the camera view, it looks like many people focus on the wrong part of the rod. The end ur holding is only moving a small amount so u think ur just twitching the lure. Look at the tip of the rod to better approximate how far ur lure is moving.
wow! I can't count how many bass fishing vids I've watched. This is the most useful ive ever seen. Im about to go out and practice. thanks!!!
One of the best instructional content creators
Nicely done. Thanks for the insight.
This is why I've tested a few rigs in a swimming pool where the bait is visible. An old Shakespeare/Zebco push button with a super low gear ratio allows for more mistakes in wind speed than an open bail or baitcaster. I still often like to jig with a short pole pushbutton in little nooks as I have the accuracy of a baitcaster without any of the other issues involved.
Another useful, well-executed video. Thank you!
Best advice I got for a Texas rig was reel it as slow as you can #4, if you think you’re going slow, go even slower. Drives em crazy and fish love to follow the worm and inspect it.
You keep outdoing yourself with these videos.. will watch this one again before going out this weekend !
Wow Steve! That was an eye-opener. Ya just gave me a new prospective on C-rig. Thanks for sharing!
Just came across your vids a couple of weeks ago you’ve been knockin it out of the park for years .. lettin me know after 55 years of fishin I don’t know as much as I thought I did… thanks keep up the excellent work..HAVE FUN!!!
Great video Steve. Love the visual of how far the bait moves, its a lot further than I expected.
Great video. Going to try that slack line retrieve this evening.
EXCELLENT video Steve. Great content which will help me out so much. Wow. The work to get that split screen up there was well worth it. Take care my friend!!
Excellent presentation.
Honestly just found your channel and I love how simple and concise it is. Topics are on point. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you!
Wow! That was eye opening. Great video, very educational.
This may be the single best piece of content I've seen on fishing YT in quite some time. Actual information that we all thought we understood that shows us we don't know jack 😅
Glad it was helpful!
I just recently subscribed to your channel and love it. Great work!! This video was definitely an eye opener for me. Keep up the good work and tight lines!!
Very Informative, thank you
Really informative and well produced content. Super glad I found your channel.
You constantly provide content like this video which shed light on the essential nuances of technique which make all the difference. Every video is a literal perspective unlike any other channel; I have learned so much. Everything we do at the point of the rod is amplified so much by the time it reaches the lure!
I'm glad it was helpful! And thank you for watching.
Fantastic video. Thanks very much for your effort.
Really good video man, thank you!
Fantastic video…I can now see what I’ve been doing wrong forsure…thanks so much great video…when I use a senco I’ll go with a wacky worm presentation mostly but figure it would be really similar
Ive been taking bass fishing more serious recently and I appreciate this type of stuff. thanks man
I'm glad it has been helpful!
Very informative! I was totally wrong on what I thought was going on with my Texas rigs. Thanks Steve!
Great video Steve! very helpful as is all your videos! Thank you!
Thank you for all your hard work and sharing all your great info with all of us.
I appreciate that!
Very interesting to see. I learn something from every one of your videos.
I’m surprised this doesn’t have a lot more views. Great information and camera setup/synchronization. I’ll be binge watching your videos in the time to come.
That was really an eye opener for me. I need to pay attention more to how I am moving my plastics. I have been moving my rod tip way too much. I am enjoying the bass behavior bundle. It was worth the weight. Thanks Steve.
Thanks! I am excited about the new topics I have coming up for it. There should be new stuff coming constantly.
Wow the way you explained that and showed us underwater footage is absolutely incredible. Thank you! Can’t wait to see what other videos you have. Keep up the good work sir!
Thank you!
Eye opener. Whole different perspective with visual effect and facts. Nice. Thank you sir!
Thank you!
Soooo needed this view! Thank you
Thanks for watching!
WOW. Awesome video.. Very informative video.. I had no idea it moved that much .. EXCELLENT 👍👍
A great demonstration with the camera, it helps clarify the action differences for those who have not fished clear water or paid attention to what is actually happening below the surface with the lure. I am not sure the title applies though, except for those starting out. Each of those retrieves can have application beyond the level bottom demonstration. Knowing bottom structure and vegetation determines which of those retrieve patterns will work and when. I have used them all at one point or another with success.
Great video. Really eye opening. Great to see the real time action under the water.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is truly awesome and informative sir, thank you very much.
Glad it was helpful!
EXCELLENT way to present this !
Thanks!
Great idea with the synchronized camera shots! 👍🏼 I often wonder if my retrieve is doing what I want it to do at the other end of my line. This was helpful. Thanks.
Glad it was useful! Thanks for watching.
What an informative video! I had no idea that is what was going on down there. I think this is going to really help.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for making such a brilliant video!
This is a great video! Thank you!
Wow. This was enlightening. Always hear about fishing slower, but this is a good example of just how slow might be required.
I'm glad it was helpful!
Excellent video. Thank you.
You are welcome!
Wow, amazing. Thanks for this video.
Thanks for watching!
This demonstration changed my retrieve methods. Seeing what is happening with the lure has always been a curiosity for me. Now I have a good idea what’s happening down there.
Well organized, concise, and entertaining. Came to this video from your March lure recommendation video. Subbing now.
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Very helpful! Love you videos & your positive message!
Thanks!
Great info. Will try it on trout
Steve You and I have communicated in the past. This video as well as the one on the Tritanopia filter are two of the best videos that I have seen. Great work.
Thank you! I appreciate that.
This is awesome! Thank you for making this video! I did not know I was making mistake reeling!
This channel doesn’t get the views it deserves. Some of the best information on KZhead!
I appreciate that!
Fantastic video! Covers a topic that is not often discussed
I had been wanting to put this one together for quite some time, but it was tricky getting everything set correctly. My wife was a huge help on this one!
Awesome video once again. I enjoy all of your videos. Thanks
Thanks!
Another amazing video....thank you!!
Thanks!
Really enjoyed this video. Made me wonder how different weights react to the same retreives. Also how wind and current affect your presentation.
Very informative. It is definitely different than I imagined. Not sure how I was ever able to catch fish. I will definitely keep all this in mind
Glad it was helpful!
Really great stuff!!!
I learned something, thank you sir!
Thanks!
Incredibly valuable content. You have such fresh eyes and common sense. Please keep it up!
Thank you!
Excellent break down and all makes perfectly good common sense ...Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Great video! I think this is why I have always had more success with shakey head or ned rigs because it forces me to just shake the rod tip where as with other techniques I am more prone to move the bait too much.
After spending so much time filming underwater, it really hit me how much I would work a lure way more than I realized. It doesn't take much to make a huge difference. Thank you for watching.
Very interesting video. Very helpful!
Thanks!
This is great information I mean this changes how I will retrieve any bait from my favorite Texas rig worm to a jig or a bladed jig or square bill
Thanks Steve, that was interesting and will make you stop and think 😁👍💯
Love you videos!!!! I always learn so much!!!
This video is so so important for not only new anglers, but anglers who don’t spend everyday on the water. I’m sharing this to a lot of people. I will add, do you think it would be possible to do a third angle with a “hat cam” showing what the line looks like coming off your rod into the water? I tend to watch my line quite a bit to get an understanding of what’s going on vs watching my hands. Would be good with a hi vis yellow line or something
I think the hat cam is a great idea. I will definitely have to do that when I do a part 2 to this one. Thank you for the idea!
Absolutely great video!!
Thanks so much!
Best vid yet! Steve, which technique would you use when in a lot of submerged vegetation? Im gueesing, rod tip up with soft and only a few small twitch/bounces (assume using rig with weed guard) ..thoughts? Thank you Steve.
Your videos and experiments have without a doubt caught me more fish. Thank you so much for what you do!!
That is so good to hear! Thank you.
Amazing video great information and everything
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very good info, Steve I legally like your videos
Great video. No idea who you are but subbed just due to the excellent idea behind this video .
Excellent info Steve! I suspect many of new anglers such as myself learned something valuable.
Thanks! I hope it is helpful.
Wow!! It's unbelieve able the difference in the presentations!!! Thanks for showing & sharing as it made me think I change the way to present a bait!!! Stay Safe & God Bless!!! 🤠👍
Thanks! Have a wonderful Easter weekend.
This was a awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻😎.
Well done
love it man!!
Great video! Thanks!!
Thanks! It was fun to put together.
Stunnung video! Thanks Steve.
Fishing my whole life. Nowhere near a pro but hit em when many don't. Got to say this was a GREAT idea for a video and (as I try to regularly) I learned good stuff. This time form you.. Thanks bud!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
One of the best videos I’ve seen.
Wow! Eye opening!
Great content as always. I'd love to also see what "stitching" your lure looks like.
Definitely. I'm working on one today that should have that in there. Thank you!
nice work
Man great video that was very interesting
Thanks for the hard work on this one.. wow.. i know i gotta slow down now for sure... thx
It took quite some time to put together for sure. Lol.
Hey, Steve, great to see ya and pray u are well. Great info. Thank u
Same to you! Pray things are going well and this was a fun one to work on.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors day by day, brother
just came across this video today. This thing deserves a million views
Thanks! Maybe someday it will get there. It keeps doing well for me. And thank you for watching!
wow! definitely one of your best ever, and as we all know, on certain days, these are the subtleties that can make the difference in eliciting a strike..
Glad you enjoyed it!
this helped me catch a bass today, good stuff
That is awesome! Thank you for letting me know.
