Need More Bites 2024
soccerswaggg16 reply :
Hey guys i fish shallow vegitation filled lakes from the banks , i use light spinning rods and use mostly plastics , but usually when i go out i get one bite a day if that at all, i'm looking for a plastic that will get me consistent bites , size of fish doesn't matter to me at all , just lookin for more action , any suggestions for baits/ techniques/ rigs ? thanks
mikey5string reply :
smaller plastics like a grub on a small jig head. nightcrawlers. small inline spinners.

I usually fish with 4" zoom lizards, sometimes curl tail worms, weightless and texas rigged , i fish for like 3 hours and maybe get one bite all day ,my casts are accurate , and i know that there's fish in the lake , i just can't seem to trigger more than one a day haha any advice , not looking for anything too small but just consistency in average fish

should i do a straight retrieve with the jighead ?
MIbassin reply :
if you don't like the senkos..you should definitely stick with some of the other lures that road warrior mentioned

oh no i'll try the senkos i jus don't have much experience with them lol do they draw like a lota strikes ?
ib_of_the_damned reply :
If you are fishing spinning gear, try a drop shot rig. I fish city park lakes a lot and they get tons of pressure, I am able to get a couple bites sporadically with a drop shot. I also use Roboworms and more recently the Big Bite Baits Shaking Squirrel worms.
Colors: Robos- Aarons Magic, Bold Bluegill, Oxblood Light Red Flake
BBB Shaking Squirrel- Oxblood Red Flake, Earthworm
Drop shot rigs are always good for a tough bite.
deep reply :
OP, just do what roadwarrior suggested, You might want to use 4" senkos instead of 5" ones. Trust us, it'd work. Even a knockoff would probably work.

Well, let's be gentle...

Yeah, pretty much. I fish from the banks as well, at local park lakes. I have found that just making a long cast around a 45 degree angle to the shore works the best. After the cast, I reel up the slack and start dragging and bouncing the worm with the rod tip. You want to maintain the feel of the bottom with the drop shot weight, I usually use a 3/16-1/4oz. cylinder or teardrop weight. Every know and then I will just let the worm just sit there and jiggle it a little and sit again before I continue dragging it back.
Hope this explains how I fish it! Let us know how you do!

Depends on water clarity and what the bass are feeding on, but you really can't go wrong with green pumpkin.

It's one of the most universal baits there is. You can fish it wacky, texas, carolina, weightless texas, weightless like a fluke/jerkbait, splitshot, drop shot, you name it. Check out the thread roadwarrior mentioned.
Here's what I always start with, though. Rig it weightless and let it sink to the bottom. Mix up your retrieve with popping it up off the bottom, then reel in slack, then repeat. Follow up with slowly lifting your rod tip then reeling in slack as you lower it. It takes concentration because you will VERY often get a strike as it is fluttering back to the bottom on slack line.
Oh, and make sure that when you make your cast you let it make it's initial decent on slack line so it falls straight down. WATCH YOUR LINE!
If this rigging method doesn't work, wacky will. Same basic premise applies as the other two as far as watching on the fall, but the difference is that you are going to hop it off the bottom then let it flutter down. This method is less about moving the bait back to you as it is about how it flutters down. Bass (and bluegill apparently, as I recently learned) just can't get enough of a wacky rigged senko.
There is a thread that contains about a hundred other threads that are all things senko and it is found in the tackle section (on my phone otherwise I would link it for you).
There really isn't a "wrong way" to fish a senko as long as you rig it right. Find out what the fish want and slay 'em.

senkos definitly induce strikes. went out with this guy i work with the other day. i was fishing these blue curly tail worms with no luck and he was using a senko and destroying them. i tried one of his senkos rigged texas style and 10 minutes later caught my first fish of the day. the last 4 or 5 fish ive caught recently have all been on a senko.

Wacky rigged senkos are dangerous and a good go to if your not catching anything ..

There needs to be more of this...there are a million articles here that could answer 95% of the posts made. Also the "SEARCH" bar up to the top right of all forums is a freaking brilliant invention. Use it. Trust me, it works and has since the almighty internet was introduced to man kind.
Sometimes when I am reading posts I just translate it to "Hi, can you catch the fish for me because I don't want to read or try anything new." Half of the fun of fishing is figuring "it" out.

You don't even need to read: Gene has a video for just about any topic you could imagine bass fishing related.
