No, and never will, lol.

Cool...Wonder how man times he had to change the shorts after a gator grabbed it

[Dave Bailey]

Pretty sure that I did something like that when I was a kid, probably most of us have, just playing around. Don't remember having success, but I might try it again when the opportunity arises.

Never tried it, but it looks a bit boring after you get a fish on, not much of a fight when you don't have any line out.

Up at a popular fly in lodge, I usually have some success and a lot of fun trolling buzz-baits with just a few yards of line out, right beside the boat. I don't waste a lot of time on this, and haven't caught anything huge, but watching them strike a buzz-bait right beside you is an amazing sight! BTW...Leaving for our 2012 trip next weds!

I like the bit about going back and forth on a spot, almost like figure-eighting a musky.....but I don't see how this is really that effective. He missed all kinds of areas that he should've been casting tight to shore.

Most I would take from it is zigzagging the bait a few times at boatside, when you're right up against the weeds.

Otherwise....I'll let the wife do the sweeping and I'll catch the fish

Saw that one a couple years back.

Saw that one a couple years back.

 

 

And it didnt catch on?

[krixxer]

that looks like sweeping, I'm not crazy about housework

[Stoty]

I love the sweet "pump you up" text slides!

 

"And now more ACTION"....

 

I'll throw my Nitro and a Horny Toad up against his "sweeping" any day of the week, LOL.

[Broker]

Looks like a boring way to fish to me LOL

[lew]

A good technique for those who are too lazy to cast & crank

I have a technique called 'orbing'. Hook on a red/white spherical bobber and pop it. Probably equally as effective - and silly looking.

[pike slayer]

not a bad idea when your buddy is trying to get his snag and u have nothing better to do.

You can actually get bobbers with a concaved head that are specifically made for popping, a lot of saltwater guys use them for redfish and sea trout with a shrimp or other bait. Might be something to look into!

[Jacob]

Interesting? Yes

Will i wver try it? NO

It looks like it might work but you are actually missing a lot more water.

May work on a private pond.
