so according to who read this more ppl said yeah yums are better then people saying senkos were better... but not enough ppl to make it final.

my friend always pulls so hard that it comes flying out of the water and it ticks me off.. i know he looses some like that since he even does it on rapala jointed lures which theres no need.

roadwarrior is like the smartest guy i know, is there any limit to how much you should eat, my lake seems clean, how do u get rid of mercury or where does it come from

Does bass taste good? People alwyas say it doesnt but i have never tried it... i have had perch and catfish... does it depend on how you cook it? How come no1 keeps them to eat?

Well i went to gander and was looking at some plastics cause they looked fun to fish so i said what the hell... Senkos were like 6 bucks and no i am not poor nor cheap but the yum dingers looked just as good for 2.50 to 3 dollars... The label said catches more fish its proven, heavily salted blah blah blah... So then my friend bought the same exact color senko as i did yum and well i caught more in the same spots fishedbought weedless/wieghtless.. Well except mine had a yellow tip they were the same... does any1 agree, i feel a yum is better its half the price and comes with 12... they also tear easy so i get 24 for 6 bucks and not 10.. they also worked better for me Yum dinger=new love.

one bite i missed i felt a little tug then my pole bent all the way and it was a ugly stick.. my pole was just sitting and then biggest tug, i paniced lmao i am a beginner though. have you ever used a yum dinger?

when do set the hook, i was using a yum dinger and i felt some big tugs while i was fishing it weedless... I missed once and then later i got a bigger tug when i wasnt holding the rod and somehow it hooked itself (it was 2 lbs 5 oz. decent.) Then i missed two more, So whats the perfect and right way to hook a bass... I keeo missing them, i know there bass cause they;re big bites, pan fish cant even take the worm. so how do you set the hook?

What would you recommend to fish in thick cover or like near stumps?

I go to ebay since i want more then like 5 color senkos to try them out and they run like $6 a pack.. So i figure I will look on ebay... even thing says senko like and there like 50 pack for like 8 and even some assortments.. Are they they same?? is there any other plastic company thats u recomm ???end?

What color/size/ size hook would you prefer for senkos? Whats your technique?? I want to try and fish worms... Also if its not a senko what size wieght and technique?? Also how do you rig it

theres a river running out of my lake but it goes through a dam first so i dont know... Someone recently told me theres trout there... i was like theres no way, theres not even trout in my lake.. and i doubt somebody stocked it

Say your fishing and you get a bite but fail to hook the fish, what should you do... Like what the other post says and follow up using something else or keep that lure/plastic in the water and wait for it to bite agian?? Would that happen?

for me its kind of hard to have a tornado but anythings possible up here on the top of the catskill mountains in ny. I am always scared of wind or my electric motor running out of battery which always happens when u dont pay attention. Winds always suddenly come

one thing thats annoying about fishing with different ppl is that my one friend always wants to troll around.. how annoying is that he thinks it better.. and he hates when he doesnt drive the boat... some ppl are just annoying to fish with

my first day here in ny and it well sucked

i would die right now to see a bass... ny and the lake is almost melting

today i was using a jug first with a crawfish and i got caught on a rock and the line ripped, didnt mean that... then my friend and i were using a rapala wounded minnow thing and a rapala x-rap.. not even a bite

I just went out since the lake is thawed out like 40 feet at some spots and i am just goin around the boarder. The lake is also like 8 feet to far in and thats no lie ask anyone is new york. Its hard to judge where and what to fish. Any tips, are the fish still to deep out??? what lurres to use?? should i wait... I am just catching and releasing i want to fish for fun, its still no season in ny > ;D ???

i used to always say i dont wanna be embarassed but thats the only way to learn

this all helps me thanks people

the lakes half thawed out and the season should start soon, any advice for cold cold water?

well you cant quote me but maybe less rainfall means also means not enough oxygen.

then if its a game using artifical then why do u use it to find structure.. make that a game, i personally think that might be harder i dont know.

If bass season doesnt start until the third week of june in ny are u still allowed to catch and release the bass?

oh your lucky up here in sullivan county NY the ice is still there. The rain was so bad here, the lake has never been so high before and the ice is still there.
