It was a hot summere day just starting to warm up.

My biggest fish went exactly 7.8 pounds. I caught it at 9.00 - 9.30 in the morning in April fishing docks with a chartresuse spinnerbait.

I was wondering can the fish see a drak green braided line in the water? If I am gonna fish a clear lake should I color the braid black with a permanent marker or add a leader. Or would you go with the straight briad in clear water, I'm worried about them seeing the line. Thanks

I LOVE burning a Speed Trap crankbait in beginning of spring all the way to fall. They hit it so hard! I have had some luck burning a chartresuse spinnerbait also.

So should I switch to flourocarbon or stay with the braid?

Hi All What line do you prefer for fishing Senkos? What pound test line is it? I've been using Power Pro 50LB with a flourocarbon leader and am thinking of switching to straight flourocrabon. Anybody have some suggestions? Thanks

I've been bass fishing for about two years and this is my first time fishing in the winter. A technique my partner showed me is dart heading. It's a great technique and you should definitley give it a try. The key is to go very slow and not move the bait a foot at a time. Move it in inches and pause it and shake it in place. Some of my favorite baits to dart head are Yamamoto Cut Tails, and Tiny Ikas, another good brand of worm to darthead is the Robo Worm in various colors, some of my favorite are Prizm Shad, Hologram Shad, and Oxblood. Be patient with this and it will definitley produce for you.

I came across this bait and was wondering if anyone has tried them. They look like a really good bait and have some good looking colors. Has anyone tried these?

Thanks for the replies When I said Clear Lake you guys probably thought of the the lake in northern CA. The lake im fishing is Oroville. My mistake, thanks again for the replies.

Hi All, I'm going to be fishing at a clear lake and be dropshotting in about 50ft of water. Im going to use 6 lb test because the fish are line shy. During my prefishing I used a 1/4 ounce weight and it took forever to get top the bottom. What size weight would you recommend using? Also how long should my leader be when I'm drop shotting in 50-70 feet of water? Also, I'm gonna start out with topwater in the morning with a Zara Spook. Would I start with a slow retrieve at first and give itr pauses or work it non-stop to the boat? Thanks
