When it comes to a Texas Rig, you really can't fish it wrong as long as you fish it slow. Including a few sublte hops, drags and pauses can't hurt. Something I like to do is to work it back "without" trying to draw attention to the bait. Basses food rarely wants to get eaten, yet it does. Sneak it back. It's her world, she knows its there.

I'm good on the brown bass locally. However, our fortunes are completely reversed when it comes to quality green bass. I choose to go quite a bit south and bring a passport to get my big green bass fix. (which has included a few new PB's) #worthit Fish Hard A-Jay

Tank's Mom is a White German Shepherd and his dad is a Belgian Malinois. Jury's still out on whether or not those big ears will eventually stand up. A-Jay

10 lb FC club. 48 inch fish but she was Stout. A-Jay

Me too. A-Jay

I am right here as well. Although I've never understood the 'junk' term. Prefer to have as many tools at my disposal as possible. Sort of like a good junk mechanic I suppose. Fish Hard A-Jay

Same set ups I throw my jerkbaits; except I don't use FC. Either M spinning gear with 10 Braid & mono leader or M casting gear with 10 or 12 mono. A-Jay

Does not shimmy on the fall. There is no 'fall'. The bait has a slight side to side roll as it comes to a stop - In Place. #magic btw - I fish it on mono or braid & a mono leader - Seems a FC mainline will goofball quite a bit of what the bait wants to do. A-Jay

Bait's designed to sink a foot or so I guess, but then they suspend very nicely right there. I change the hardware & plus size the hooks, so my baits might go 6 inches deeper ? The magic is the sweet little roll/shimmy on the pause. It takes a second to happen so wait for it. But be careful, you might get your arm broke. Fish Hard A-Jay

Haven't been on the water much myself. Been busy but it's by choice. #tankslife Looks like I might be able to get out end of this week (Friday). A-Jay

Boaters who did that repeatedly were part of job security for 28 years. A-Jay

Not a doubt in my mind Sir ! A-Jay

Agreed @Catt But there may be another way to look at it as well. Stay Healthy my friend. A-Jay

Thanks J After the big water life the Pro-V feels like a go cart. Fun at times but we both know that with only ONE OB motor, the fun turns into A serious problem if it goes down. Do ALL maintenance & hope for reliability when we need it most. A-Jay

Nice ~ ! That's what I'm talking about. Congrats A-Jay

I prefer to Always have the worst of it on the stern on the way home. Try to plan it this way each trip. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it does not, Back in the day the saying was: "You have to go out but you don't have to come back". Not so much any more . . . . Fish Hard but Stay Safe A-Jay

Nice. I like big smallies too. Can we get a few pics ? A-Jay

Rapala Sub-Walk. Done. Fish Hard A-Jay

Once I hear this, I'm good. Fish Hard A-Jay

Tank seem up for just about anything we throw at him and really prefers to break his own trail ~ #tankslife A-Jay

Hard to describe just how much fun this puppy is. #tankslife A-Jay

In the spirit of Labor Day, here's some 'work' from this morning. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Interesting. If this is such a sure thing, I guess I would only feed this amphibian on the days I planned to fish. I might never struggle to get bites the rest on my born days ! #starvetheterrapin Fish Hard A-Jay

Grilled chicken & golden taters. Could be Ducanes last hurrah for 2021. Was good while it lasted. A-Jay

Nicely Done. A-Jay
