Looks like the Western canal in Tempe
Hey Kevin, I was just checking out those exact Storm lures at WallyMart in Port Lavaca, Tx…an hour ago, so now I'll have to try em on the saltwater speckled trout I was telling you about. Since the turkeys don't stock Flies, I'll have to make a 40 mi run to Academy in Victoria. Subbed ya 2. ππ£
Where is that canal and what is it called
Great video! Which canal is this? Iβm on the west side but always looking for new places.
Another nice day and good fishing trip too Kevin, we use those soft baits too and works well too, tight lines and greetings from NZ,, Tony.
I've been using them on spinnerbaits for a while and they work great…
I've still got packs of the storm trout colored but with pre rigged stingers and are awesome
Yes they do, I can vouch! They are sold everywhere though not just Walmart.
Those aren't what those are made by rapala
Hey Kevin
Take those over to saguaro lake and see what you catchβ¦..
When I was a kid this was my all time go to for salt and fresh. I used to throw a top water or crankbait for that reaction strike. Then follow up any short strikes with that as the finesse bait and they canβt resist.
Woooo
Storm is very popular in Europe very good baits π nice video
I have caught carp, bluegills, bass, blue fish stripers, fluke on the storm in the clear color. Any size doesn't matter.
I don't have wallmarts where i live, but storm is a well known and reputable brand in almost everyone's tackle box. Most will credit the storm flutter stick as the best lure storm has and is great for peacock bass and small snakeheads
Tried them in freshwater a few times but haven't had any luck. Tried them in saltwater and had all of them chewed in half (guessing bluefish). They have a nice weight and feel to them, so after watching your vid, I'll give them another chance in freshwater.
Looked like a fun lure to work brotha π€πΌπ€πΌπ€πΌπ€πΌ
Yo Kev, loved this video! The storm swim baits work awesome great bass action. The bass that hit almost immediately was insane ππ£π₯π―
Way to bring the thunder and lighting
What city is this?
You smashed it brother!!! π₯ Awesome Bass fishing on Strom baits! π£π€
Great vid; good to know these swimbaits work so well. I laughed at the thunder/storm sound effects with that first bass ππ
Can you explain what you mean by βletting it ripβ. Newbies need to know. Thanks.
Ive pulled a lot of fish on thise badboys. Smallies, largies, pike and even a couple decent trout
There it goes I got you now
Love the random Walmart wall of lures challenge
