Thank you for the knowledge brother!👀
The og slim bro
Great video! Mark H
My top 5- jig, jerkbait, blade bait, underspin, drop shot
The best and cheapest crankbaits are here the153anglers.com/hard/
The ned rig with trd and z man micro finesse jig with paca chunk tiny trailer have accounted for most of my giant bass in water temp 38-48 deg. Shad rap, flat sided cranks are hot at times for me also. I have better luck with jerkbaits when water temp closer to 50.
Thanks for the tips. Going to use them really soon
Thanks Jacob God bless you love to get to fish with you one day Lord willing! HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL
I myself throw a zoom salty ring worm on a shakey head it's caught me huge bass here in NJ. In really cold water conditions it's my version of the ned rig
Watching videos while the camera dude zooms in and out constantly makes me wanna yak :X . Liked the content not the editing
get a tripod dude. good tips tho.
Wiggle wart?
Do top water lures work good in winter.?
Whenever I see Jacob wheeler a buzzbait pop up in my brain 🧠
Deep diving CB big daddy
Jacob dude you can afford a tripod
Next video from the office... can you tell us about the trophies, in really curious why there are shoes in the trophy case ?????
I Like throwing a Plastic Fluke, KVD Caffeine Shad is my favorite, great instructional video JW!! aaaah DING!!!!! :-)
I'm a shad rap guy! Love the things. Hey Jacob, how about another jet boat, river video??? Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I love shad raps and upsizing the hooks to help it slowly rise... killer winter bait.
Me watching this with 38 degree water temps 😅
shad rap caught me fish 30 years ago . kinda suprised but happy that you stull use them
Love the info! Agree most but my home murky water lake Taylorsville KY seems tough on swim baits unless trailers...I’d have to throw my Ned rig in there! Definitely agree on the shad raps and jerkbaits to rattler traps...cant wait to watch my favorite pro fish again soon!
I'm absolutely killing it in West Tn with a blade bait. Any version, Bass Pro usually as I can go replace the ones I lose. Just a novice bank angler. Best 2 weeks of fishing for me ever. Several 3-6 lb fish in high pressure public lakes. Thanks for the video.
Join our team, now taking apps for Pro Staff the153anglers.com/pro-staff-application/
Fritz side cranks bait is my favorite. The five is pretty awesome, I'm excited for the 5 Jr.
Great choices and great info. Picking only 5 is tough but I never go out anymore in winter without a dark sleeper tied on!
Good job Sir
Lol at the googan plug. Their plastics are too delicate... 1 fish done... and don’t get me started on “their” hard baits.
didnt you just turn that bandito bug into a rage craw?
Ned rig😎
08:06 he becomes Irish
We made show about you
Hey cuz what's the best way to tell if they're on a shad or crawfish bite? I know to look for the crawfish in the live well deal. Something else please? And I never have watched a video on how wind change effects the way fish set up different on banks. Would be a great video to learn from? Thanks bro
One more for the list: an Accent Colorado/Willow spinnerbait. 💪
Please use a tripod. This camera bs is out of control
We got you now!
Am I the only one that even after years, looks at Jake and says “he really looks like he should be in Motocross or xgames or something”
Yes
It is easy to fish in any weather when you go fishing on lakes and ponds where the fish is fed and brought by humans... Try fishing on -20 on a random natural lake...
Fake. No sponsor logos all over your hat, jacket, gloves, etc. 😉
Please due another video about the shad rap. I, with many, would like to know what's the differences between the 5,6,7,8, etc. and when to throw them (time of day, sunlight).
Good video, Wheeler 👍🏾 imma try these tips for my channel buddy! Appreciate the info!
Totally agree. I also rotate a fish head spin in with the swimbait. Sometimes they want a little flash.
Great video! Awesome information!!
Slow rolling a 3/4 to 1 oz spinner bait with the skirt trimmed down. I’ve had mid to upper 40’s water temps when the fish would hit nothing but the spinner bait.
For me, here in Indiana, I'd add a shakey head with a finesse worm and a drop shot or ned rig and take away the two cranks. Not many shad lakes around other than Patoka and Monroe.
Big flutter spoon! Yes i know there’s nothing sexy about a spoon but here in the northeast they get it done!
Awesome, informational video!
Great picks. I like the drop rig (damiki rig) or tight lining also.
Me too sir especially around rock
great top 5!
A jig, dt 6 or 10, lipless crank, Alabama rig, and a shakey head if it’s really tough is the way to go in Alabama
Dude you need to have a talk with the camera man. Unless that happens to be your wife. In which case it was perfect. 😳
You are referring to camera guy Brody who is one of the best in the business
Ned rig is the only one I wotldve thrown in...but my part of ky is probably why. Great info. Keep it Jacob!!
What do you think about all the googan baits?
Jig, jerkbait, shad rap, Colorado blade spinnerbait, Red eye shad....they are my top 5.....and an A rig of course too
I like that top five, but I’d replace the lipless with a Ned Rig. Thx
I like all of those baits for winter. One honorable mention for me is a sure go to lure, a white spinner bait with a size 6 to 8 Colorado blade slow rolled. That amazing hard thump is like ringing the dinner bell.
Great info J, keep it up!!!
Hey Jacob so I was reading on MlF and its saying they are implementing a variable minimum weight that will vary from lake to lake. What are not only yours but mdj and DC's thoughts on this. What's your views of pros and cons getting ready for eufaula al?
Jacob wheeler is an inredible fisherman.from the vids I watched seems like an even better human being
Thanks for the cool tip Jake and congratulations getting second place in the Bass Master Classic last year !
I live about an hour and a half from where you grow up in Indiana
Thanks for the tips. The silver buddy takes top spot on my winter list. Followed closely by a 1/4 oz ball head jig with a Mann's Stingray grub. Color doesn't matter as long as it is avocado. LOL. That is awesome on bluffs and channel swings in my area.
You should make a vid of you putting braid on your reel👍🏼👍🏼
Jigging spoon?
Do you ever throw a drop shot or shaky head in winter? Drop shot has been kind of my bread and butter for just about any time of year
I've been killin the largemouth and spotted bass on a drop shot this year. But I've put a gold crappie hook and a minnow on it instead of a plastic
My No1 is a weightless 4" stick bait, 2 dream shot on owner shaky head, 3 2.8 fat swing impact on a drop shot, 4 rip stop 9, and 5 blade bait. Here in GA those work best for me
jacob just curious what part of TN you live in and wat u consider ur home lake?? im about 15 min from most docks on good ole Center Hill Lake :)
DIY Chad 726 he lives on chickamagua.
Great video thanks brother I appreciate it
What jerkbait was that? The audio glitched.
James W I think he Rapala Shadow Rap
Thanks so much for the tips!!
Great tips - Your Italian is pretty good - "ba da bing ba da boom
How do I get one of those reels from your last vid?
What jerk bait is your fav for tn waters
Great information here!! I have never fished winter months until this year. Usually I'm chasing ducks, but that sure ain't happening. I have been struggling here on Bull Shoals. I'm about to go out, so thanks for the tips.
Jacob, I am from Ohio and I do a lot of smallmouth fishing in Lake Erie in Oct, Nov, Mar and Apr when the water temps are between 35 and 50 degrees. I have found that a blade bait like a Silver Buddy or Vibee and a jigging spoon like a Hopkins shorty caught more fish this time of year. If I am shallow a jerkbait is hard to beat.
I'm surprised a spinnerbait didn't make the list. Great video Jacob, good luck in 2020.
Those dates are all great and my favorite is more towards the end of winter maybe early spring when that water is still really cold but a black buzzbait working around wooden structure brush can be absolutely deadly in that cold water
I gotta give it a try.love it in the fall,top three.
Meant bitsy bug in previous post
I’m in Michigan. Top 5 for me in winter are suspending jerk bait, VMC hair jig, burst bug jig in pb and j or black and blue w/ chunk jr trailer, blade bait and then some kind of finesse rig like a Ned grub or 4” drop shot worm. Love your videos JW. My lake just iced over yesterday so looking to ice out now. ( don’t ice fish) Any recommendations for northern ice out bass?
Not a lot of bass here where I live, but a lot of salmon. Need bigger tackle for them.
My top five jig, jerkbait, small donkey rig, blade bait and one of my secrets a dark sleeper so many ways to fish a sleeper 🤫
Megabass dark sleeper
Kenny Matley is that from tactical Bassin
Jacob you are the man...love to see you catch'em and slap that DING bell...your video is right on time as I'm new to winter bass fishing...great info...ready to see your videos next week so I know which of your rods to order for the best set up 👍🎣🎣
Do you modify your shad raps to make them suspend? Mainly the #7-#9?
Love his teaching vids. Make sure to trim that killer bandito bug up to a regular craw 👍. A big ding for this channel.
Great vid!! You should definitely do some videos like that for the spring and summer bite. I think we all are looking forward to that and always wanting to learn about what to use or something new to try.
Love the SR's for cold water fishing! When I was a kid I caught my first bass over 7lbs. on an SR5 and I've been in love with it ever since.You do us Hoosiers proud, keep up the great work!
I'm up here in Washington (nw) waster temps are around 43-45, fishing 40-65 ft, mostly small mouth fish this time of year. My 5 fav baits are green pumpkin tube jig, ned rig, caralina rigged lizard, drop shot, and the dark sleeper.
Thanks alot for sharing your knowledge and experiences. Dig' those trophies, 🖒.
What do you suggest for us in New York when we have to fish through a round hole in the ice? LOL. We do catch a few through the ice on jigging spoons.
Thanks Jacob. Great info. I think an on the water demo of working the bait would be helpful to see.
I’ve busted them on a Wiggle Wart ,crawfish color ,Biggins in winter months
They stopped making those no?
Great video. Shocked you left the chatter bait out. Would have been the only one I would have added.
Now your on it.
Awesome I fish Grand lake St.Marys in the early spring for the BFL and it always drops 10 degrees in water temperature two days before the tournament begins I think maybe some of these will help out
Wheeler what’s your top 3 favorite jigs and jig trailers?
Nice Vid Jwheel. I’m in West Lafayette Indiana so my baits are a little different but still staples. Jerkbait Neko Rigged 5” senko Finesse swimbait ( underspin or Okashira screwlock head) Dropshot strike king half shell Lipless crank Tight lines from Indiana
White Whale Fishing that a good list!
Tight wobble in cold water is a myth, I catch way more on a wiggle wort in 40 degree water
Marty Cloyd man it really depends on if they are biting crayfish or shad. Just my personal opinion
I totally agree with your picks, the shad rap SR5 in crawdad color has always produced really well for me in the winter. 👌👍
what's up with the shoes in the trophy case?
Hahaha...talking about PG13 casually being your friend! That’s awesome lol! Yeah...saw some photos of you and him on his insta. Fishing and basketball...pretty much my favorite things in the world.
Jacob Wheeler Fishing That is very cool !
Todd Buhrman those are my friend Paul George signature shoe that he signed for me.
