I'm bored. What is you guys' favorite cover or conditions to fish. It could be fishing around rocks, throwing frogs around pads, cranks above weeds, etc. I know this varies for each season and technique you use, but what do you find the most fun?
My favorite has to be casting senkos and big grubs around submerged logs and trees, but occasionally in the summer mornings and evenings with a slight ripple on the water, nothing is more fun than catching bass on a Jitterbug
Grass lines with a Lucky Craft G-Splash in the morning time. Absolutely my favorite type of cover and my favorite way to fish it.
buzzbait over logs near pads/grass
Pitching jigs in/around timber, by far my favorite. Close second is Senko around brush/timber.
Frogs over pads.

Must be a Richmond thing ;D
I like spinnerbaits right near submerged timber!
Put me down for froggin' some pads!
frogs and grass!!!
Laydowns. (fallen trees right on the bank) I've caught most of my biggest fish by pitching jigs into laydowns. I can't pass a laydown without pitching a jig into it, I just can't.
Sometimes I'll spend an hour or more fishing the same one, catching fish after fish. Work 'em from the outside to the inside, and you'll be surprised how many fish will hold together in one laydown.
duckweed & a spro...
T-Rig in THICK pads
Throwing frogs in pads and senkos on the edges of pads and in the wholes of pads and second senkos around timber under the water
Mine is in the deep area of lake st. clair, just loaded with monster smallmouth bass.
Grass lines and Buzz-Baits, Lay Downs and Buzz-Baits, Log Jams and Buzz-Baits. Oh did I mention Boat Docks and Buzz-Baits??? .
Deep grass jigging
Grass with a jig.
I like to fish any wood cover,and I can't leave out lily pads either.Topwater,soft plastic's for lure's.
Frogging over pads and grass.
throwing a wacky rigged senko at submerged trees/ logs
Laydowns. Give me a bank with a bunch of laydowns and a square billed crankbait or spinnerbait and I'm good to go.
tossin a 3" senko into my money timber and free lining a live 2" worm next to a log.
I love a Rapala Skitter Pop around trees against the bank in the morning/evening. Daytime, usually a senko or other type of worms around submerged timber. I also like fishing spinnerbaits/crankbaits under docks.
I love Reeds on the full moon in summer.
I love matted grass in the summer with a frog.
I love when the hydrilla starts to grow from the edges about March
and creeping past the bouy line at lake fork about 3 am in the morning fishing the rock points and edges. just consider the risks envolved
QuoteFrogs over pads.
same here. or skippin a frog under an overhanging tree dipped in the water
Jigging where deep grass and rock/gravel meet. That edge is my favorite.
Spinnerbait on laydowns.
Evening topwater on the edge of the grass - buzzbait or popper. I also love to catch em on a spinnerbait pulled slow across a laydown.
Jig and Frog fishing in the thickest pads i can find!
and when i say pads, i mean PADS! the kind that grow way up outta the water, have nasty nasty nasty stem systems, and border the nice water level kind.
Deep muscle beds on humps, channel ledges/bends
i like to fish rocks the most i would think
frogs in the grasss. explosions.
Worms and crawdads on submerged timber.
jigs and timber: never fails
Quotefrogs in the grasss. explosions.
that is the most heart stopping thing u can ever have happen! one second froggy is chugging along, next second hell has broken loose on the surface and froggy is GONE! Love watching that happen!
(Sadly i get over excited and jump the gun, i have the biggest problem with waiting the second or so before i set the hook on frogs!) ;D
get a buddy to fish with u and u fish blinded folded lol might help that jump the gun deal
I've only been catching them on a slow shakey head...rockbeds
