Okay I like looking at different fishermen giving nuggets of knowledge and this man gave a KFC bucket, best fishing explanation ever
Tried on and off for a week, could not get them to swim correct. Looks awesome on the bank, but dead and lifeless (lies on its side, will not run vertical) tried multiple hooking techniques and styles.
So disappointed
I used these for the first time this year. Missed a big blowup. Second log crawled across and a 5 pounder blew up and engulfed it. 100 foot later threw across a log and came across it and killed the bait and the bass ran out with it. That bass was 7 pounds . Very impressive action.
I’m a big fan of the screw lock hook. Can this be used with this Gilly and will it swim correctly?
By far, the best description of rigging & fishing this bait, that I have seen! And wow, talk about a perfect demonstration! It did exactly what you described. Awesome as always. 😃👍🏼💪🏼
Mike ya voice and Cadence starting to sound l like AL lender lol
Are you gonna risk your eye sight with some flimsy sunglasses that are sold cheap on Amazon?
Just don’t stare at the sun nor eclipse. I see the dark every evening! It gets dark every fkn night! It’s nothing new to me!
Just got lucky and found a pack on sale for $3.99! I about to give it a go!
How to hook the gilly
Thank you for the content mike, I was just looking at those yesterday at my local store. Question though I live up north it doesn't seem in my opinion, that they feed as much on bluegills they do say perch. Is that just the time of the year? Or is it possible they're more likely to feed on smaller perch than Blue go?
I bought two rosary pencil Bates last fall and one was mimicking a bluegill one was a perch and 10 to 1 the perch outperformed bluegill colors. I guess the secondary thought and or question would be, everything is known to evolve and adapt could it be possible that they would evolve and adapt to say perch?
Thanks for the info. I bought my first pack of 110 pumpkinseeds today !
Following IKE’s career forever. A true monster on the water, but now he is the same monster at teaching. I learn so much from him, I appreciate your video IKE.
The biggest bass ive caught this year was a 4 puond largemouth on a black/blue fake 110 gilly,killer bait that is sorta tricky at first but easy enough that anyone can use
It kinda swims sideways so should i get some nail weights so i can put the im the bottom?
Good shit
Love this song and Doja. Reminds me of a juke joint in Pulaski County Arkansas I used to frequent.
Mike, it would be a great SHOP video w/ you on the water using these in tandem or Donkey Rig.
Big largemouth …. not what I would call a giant. Not for you Mike. LOL Good video though. Hope to see you around Manasquan Reservoir again soon.
About to try this 90 gilly for the first time
is it good for flathead?
Mike got a Tell ya I rigged one of your new Berkley Gillies on a chatter bait head/bladed jig with no skirt and boy does that thing is deadly!!! Great combo
buy this bait..it works.seen it at wally world…4th cast 3iber off corner of Lilly pads….caught several theu out day …great bait…mike huge an of yours…
Does anyone else’s just float on its side with no natural movement. Mine is like retrieving a dead fish?
They always swim sideways for me when I fish them weightless. Especially when rigged like in this video. I found putting a nail weight in the belly corrects that problem.
🤙
Mike could you do a video showing how to do that side hook ? Please. I can't find any videos on it 👍🏻
Idt you showed us how to rig it…
If you add weight to the chin, the gilly imitates a dying panfish as well
original Gilly is Japanese lure called gill flat by issei. Berkley just ripped it off, 99.9% exact same design just fyi. I'm not here to tell you which to use nor to hate on berkley. just neat little fact take it or leave its up to you
Wow , best demo ever
I enjoyed this video su much Mike, for me, you are the greatest !!!
I saw a pack of these and impulsively bought them lol
I have had a heck of a time keeping the Gilly on the hook. The bait soft plastic rips often and you will go through them. If you use the smallest Gilly the 1 hook is to flimsy
What is the ideal rigging for deeper water?
I've rigged one of my 130s with Stren 25 lb Flouro and plan on catching some nice Flatheads with it…
Excellent job Sense ! If it's anyone that can teach us, it's definitely you!!! I love every video so far.,
180 not 360 or 90. Math …go learn you sum.
Thanks from New Jersey.
"how to rig" …..no rigging in the video.
bite on the first cast, capture on the second! finally, a "fantastic" lure that actually works. And I'm glad, because they are NOT cheap.
So without throwing this bait at all I bought all of the colors and sizes from the academy I work at. I saw them come in and said “yup, no one else around here is getting these.” They just look like spawn and post spawn killers. I might even slap 5 on an umbrellas and see what happens
Finally got some Gilly’s. Wish me luck!
Camera man needs to learn how to capture the way to work the lure once you start casting. Lol. The moment you said there was wake at the corner. He should of stood up and recorded the area of where you tossed.
No 2- gonna work on the 90. Not weedless anyway.
Mike do you age at all? Lookin good buddy
How do ya doe it?
