I unbox and breakdown the New Berkley Nessie 7. I compare it to the Megabass Magdraft Ayu Twitcher and the Grow Design Works Flag 170. I then take them all to the water and show you the differences in each one. I show you the pros and cons so you can make informed decisions when purchasing. #fishing #bassfishing #largemouthbassfishing #berkley #swimbait #swimbaitfishing #glidebait #fishingvideo #unboxing

Great review!
9 better.
200$ for the GDW what in the hell 😂
I wouldn't expect a $7-$13 lure to perform as well as a $50-$100 bait. The nessie is ok for what it costs, one downside of the nessie is they put so much junk in it so you can hardly get a nail weight in it dead center, the internal harness and the plastic of the stabilizer fin take up to much room inside the actual bait. I would also say don't get the nessie5 because it doesn't like a slow steady retrieve, you can burn it then kill it to let it kick out or chop it like the others but it's so light it stays right under the surface and the body is so tiny that nail weights don't really fit well
I hate the nessie junk I spent 150 on them I would give them away the xps hard body junk bass pro not getting anymore of my money.
Action is shit compared to GDW 😂
Did u have trouble w hook hanger not going back in postion?
Great review, the water footage is awesome
Very disappointed with the Nessie. I bought the smallest size. On a slow straight retrieve it does nothing. No action at all. It almost floats.
Shoud have added the raid bait
I bought the Berkley Nessie for Saltwater fishing and the tail tore off on its first Snook I caught.
I really like your review style and hope you do many more. Thanks
I tried none of these. I live in germany, hard to get hands on those. But the Flag is just waay to expensive for a soft bait since here we are fishing for pike and they gonna shred that thing apart.
Im planning on buying the magdraft hasu raver tho soon since its more affordable, have you tried that one yet?
Incredibly helpful comparison video. Thanks for putting them side by side with different angles and explaining why you like/dislike parts of each one. Where did you buy the Megabass?
I would like to see you try the Osakana Slide 170. I heard it may be the best
I've been fishing big swimbaits in the kayak now going on my 4th year. First year I started I was still living in southwest Ohio, where I'm originally from & don't have much opportunity for really big bass. I've moved down to southern SC 2 years ago & swimbait bite down here has been much better! I've caught so many 4-5-6 pounders I've lost count. I don't even weigh them anymore unless I think it's above a 6. My 5 biggest largmouth for 2023 on big swimbaits was 7.4 – 8.05 – 8.6 – 9.3 – 11.4 I also lost another 2 right at the kayak in the 9-10 pound range last fall. Thankfully I've found a few smaller lakes full of biggins so I'm looking forward to this year having couple more different types of baits to try out. Hopefully I can beat my PB again. I saw a guy catch a 13 pounder out of one of my favorite little lakes so the possibility of a teener is actually real… I'll be out on water as much as possible trying!!! Good luck!
I just got 4 of the 9" nessy's in last week, in golden shiner, couple shad patterns & a perch. I caught a 3 pounder on my second cast & caught 5 more smaller 1-2's Sunday morning in a short 5 hour trip. Only used one bait it's holding up well & not taorn up at all. Glide bait bait is goon down here in southern SC. I definitely wanna try the flag & megabass soft glides still. The nessy swims pretty good but I only played with it one trip so far. I don't have confidence in it as with my other big swimbaits but time will tell. Hopefully I can a bigger bite on it. Idk how it will hold up to a big bass?
Do not sleep on the 5” Nessie.
Good review 👍👍
How's the Mega Bass?
Very well done and really helpful 👍
I own all 3 plus 2 other types of magdraft soft swimbaits. The nessie with tungsten strips is fire. Out the box stock its definitely grow designs. For the price definitely Berkley. I have seen trash fisherman catching PBs in my state in January on the Nessie. If the raver hasu or twictcher Sank or had nail weight holes it would be top.. love the honest review regardless of the controversy. The size 5 nessie is no good. I have had 3 fish completely swallow them
Dude im thoroughly impressed with your review… definitely looking forward to seeing more!
