I've been using Berkeley big game mono exclusively!!!! I just have confidence in this set up ! 15-25 lb is my range.

Your advice to throw a glide whenever you feel the urge to throw topwater really resonated with me. It was just the advice I really needed to hear it seems. I had the most success with a glide today that I've ever had. 👊

I only have one glide bait and it is the SPRO KGB Chad Shad. I bought a Dobyn’s swim bait rod and put my Shimano Curado 200 on it. I’m using 20lb mono.

I’ve thrown it a few times and enjoyed fishing it but I’ve yet to get bit on it. Hopefully I can hook up a few on it this Fall.

Great tips Tyler I am new at throwing the glidebait fishing thank you bud 👍🏻

[crowe]

River to sea is a good glide bait to and it's cheap. I use straight fluoride. And yes, it's addicting when you see them following your bait talk about excitement!!!

I like 20lb mono personally. the bend of the rod and the stretch of the line really helps you pin the trebles. Braid really seems to get caught in the hooks when you do a chop or a 180 burn and turn. If I couldnt use mono id choose 17 -25lb fluro but mono has really shined on hard swimbaits for me

This is a tip to live by when gb fishing. When you get followers, don't stop your retrieve. If anything, speed it up, make it choppy. When a bass is after a bait fish, the bait panics, and tries to get away. It doesn't stop, and says come and get it.

Thanks for the info...just getting into glide baits, , , , sorry for accidentally hitting thumb down I should keep my glasses on bro

[lonestarfishing]

I only use fluorocarbon; mono works, and braid isn’t necessary. With braid, a backlash means the bait’s gone. Tying a leader is pointless since the line is only as strong as the leader, and constant casting weakens the knot. Straight braid also sucks because fish can see it, and the lack of stretch means you lose more fish.

6th sense draw could be a good more affordable choice too.

I picked up a retired StCroix BassX SB rod over the winter when they were on clearance for $75. It seems to load nicely when you hook one. I’ve MOSTLY thrown the Chad Shad, and I’ve caught a couple on it in limited use. I’m currently running FC, and I have no complaints with it. My reel is a supremely underwhelming but still adequate Shimano SLX, but at least I’m getting in some reps. 😂

for lighter glide like a 4-5 in and even 6 in 15-17 lbs flouro is recommended. for heavy glides in that 8-12 in range 20-25 lbs. the weight of fluoro effects the nose action of the bait. mono makes it move up every twitch. too heavy flouro will make it nose down. its gotta be the perfect weight to keep the bait parallel.

[BasslivesmatterLLC]

For a newbie I would suggest a spro chad shad st croix bass x swimbait rod $100 any 200 size reel and 17-20lb copoly only i dont do braid to leader because of the weak point I don't do floro because it sinks I don't do mono because to much stretch. Copoly izzorline or cxx is the happy median 1/4 reel handle inputs and sometimes I will do what is known as chopping salad

[blind_eye_fishing]

What's confusing to beginners, I'm not a beginner but...js. There's half the bass world saying throw smaller profile baits because the minnows and shad this time of year are smaller. Them there's the other side saying throw bigger profile baits because the bass arr feeding on big bait fish 😂. I find this time of year here smaller finesse baits work best and late fall early winter larger baits start working well especially for bigger bass. I think you need both and have to try both this time of year though. One will shine one will not depending on region, conditions and even area of the lake you're fishing.

[Glock-]

I definitely have one tied on throughout the fall because them bass are aggressive this time of year

[jeffb]

I went down the swimbait rabbit hole in the Spring and now I don't even pick up my other rods. Big swimbaits take a lot patience though and some $ doesn’t hurt.

[kayakfishingforpredators]

Braid with a steel trace 7 strand or single strand titanium leader bc the toothy critters in Europe 😅😅

[bobbybass]

I use mono if I'm fishing cover or targeting bass and use floro for open water .

[Jay-xtnz]

Thanks for the tips! New to glide baiting… how long of a leader off their braid are they using??

[johnblaha]

For me a parabolic rod with braid to a flouro leader keeps them pinned pretty good Dobbin's fury 795 is sweet On a budget
