25 Apr 2017 ~ Unwanted Walleye
Very interesting stuff indeed - that one bass was all over the place. I think they go where the food is. And if they are relocated to a place that has what they need, they may not feel the 'need' to find greener pastures. The waters where these 'experiments' were conducted are at the very least 'fertile'. A-Jay

Rage Bug Question
Try taking a Rage Bug for a ride on a Greenfish Tackle Creeper Head ~ Seems to rather popular with the local Smallmouth population. A-Jay

25 Apr 2017 ~ Unwanted Walleye
Thanks guys ~ And what really blows my mind, no matter how many times it happens - less than 20 hours before, these spots were LOADED with Smallmouth. And then BOOM - they're gone and the Waldo's move in. To call smallies nomadic is probably an understatement. 30 plus fish one day - ZERO the next. Just when I thought I was figuring some of this out - not so much. A-Jay

25 Apr 2017 ~ Unwanted Walleye
On the water yesterday, and while not specifically targeting walleye (closed season) they were fairly persistent. I think they knew they would have to be immediately released; which they were. Hope to see these guys again. A-Jay

"Jig & Twig"
Fair enough ~ I will say that for me a drop shot is a 'finesse' presentation, made on light line, where I'm attempting to solicit a strike from a somewhat neutral or even perhaps negative mood bass. On the other hand a Jig is meant is be thrown in the Jungle, so all those rules apply. Combining them seems counter productive. A-Jay

Boat registration numbers placement
Hey Zach - forget those Plain Boring stick on letters; Kick it up a notch and go with some custom lettering. Made to order by a company called 3D Lettering and there are a few different models to chose from. They are high quality and very easy to apply correctly. https://www.amazon.com/Boat-Jetski-Registration-Numbers-raised/dp/B00SI7SX6A/ref=lp_8523008011_1_14?srs=8523008011&ie=UTF8&qid=1493230111&sr=8-14 And while you're at it I'd get the a Chrome Frame Registration Tag. Also High quality & easy to apply. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Boat-Jet-Ski-Registration-Tag-Yearly-Chrome-Blank-Frame-Set-2-Pcs-3-x-3-Inlay-/371188165754?hash=item566c89ec7a:g:ugsAAOSwPhdU~cSl&vxp=mtr Both are pictured on my rig below.

"Jig & Twig"
Looks like a drop shot rig with a jig on the end. If the bass are eating the jig mostly, during the fight back to your thumb / net, there may be a certain amount of collaterally lost Senkos. Some before they even catch a fish. I'll fish either rig separately but probably not at the same time. Places that I will want to throw that jig rig, the stick bait will surely hang up. A-Jay

Big hudds for big smallies?
I'm targeting Trophy Smallies all season long. I even manage to catch a few here & there. For me, the Huddleston Swimbait might be The Very Last Bait on a long list of other more effective presentations. A-Jay

How to get lazy bass to bite in the summer?
Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ These fish you are seeing might not be lazy, just well fed. As mentioned above - try fishing at night. Also if you can see them , they probably can see you - can make them very hard to catch. Be sneaky. A-Jay

Fishing Podcast
IMO Podcasts are a decent way to get info. One is able to stream or download them and listen to them at home or on the road. And there's a Podcast for just about any & every topic you can think of. With the right content & guests, I'd listen to a few I think. A-Jay
