Pake South: Dice/Coike Secrets from a Master (Make LiveScope Followers Eat)

Dice baits, Coike-style baits, fuzzy baits, urchins—whatever you call them, they’re the hottest bait category in bass fishing right now. Pake South may be fishing them better than anyone, and after two record-book Bassmaster Open wins, he’s breaking down the exact details that make fish follow, commit, and fully eat. This is a deep dive into how Pake fishes dice/urchin-style baits with LiveScope, why the right sink rate and profile matter, and how the new Berkley MaxScent Moeba was designed to solve the follow-and-nip problem. What you’ll learn: • Why dice/Coike-style baits get more bites than minnows or jerkbaits in certain LiveScope situations • How Pake works them like a jerkbait: twitch, pause, adjust to the fish’s mood • The ideal sink rate, tentacle stiffness, profile, and fall that make an urchin bait work • When to throw the big 4.5-inch style vs. downsizing for smallmouth and spotted bass • The setup: 7’3” medium-heavy extra-fast rod, 20-pound fluorocarbon, baitcaster, and hard hooksets • Why first-cast accuracy at 40–60 feet matters more than bombing casts way out • How MaxScent helps turn followers and nippers into fish that actually commit • When dice baits don’t work, and how to tell fast before wasting your day Guest: Pake South — Bassmaster Elite Series pro; 2026 Bassmaster Open winner at Rayburn and Eufaula; record-book three-day weights; one of the hottest young LiveScope anglers in bass fishing.   Watch the full video podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLJHIrTVplvfzK7I8FEog0BXmrt83Yc3T  Save 10% on MillerTech lithium batteries and all other products: https://tinyurl.com/MillerTech10off  Follow Catch More Bass—new episodes every Monday at 2 PM CT.
