    I was looking at these baits has anybody used the slow sink kicker sunfish if so what color has worked for you i fish stained water
  15. hard Swimbaits (tylure hard sunfish) and improve on my dock/timber jig fishin
  16. yeah I know what you mean it is all in presentation and finding that sweet spot on there bed. I totally see where you are coming from and I wont touch any bed if the fish is over say 4 or 5 pounds last year we had a great spawn season I personally saw some 12lb plus fish and is very tempting to catch these fish when there so vulnerable but we need to let these fish alone and catch them this fall haha 8-) Why my theory is if you release them there they swim right back to there beds I personally have seen this and do it a lot it has also been tested that bass have instinctive direction to there bed so even if you drift while the fish is in the boat on a windy day they can still find there way back however i do practice CPR (Catch Photo Release)

    I thought deadsticking was not moving the bait at all just letting it sit in one spot this is supposed to look like at minnow that is completely calm not worried about being eat therefore he is a easy meal P.S. this was the lure i was gunna use for it http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_44686____SearchResults

    Figured i would share this with you it was in the bass master magazine. Its whole purpose is to have no action at all. all you do is take a straight fat worm type bait throw it out on the edge of grass flats or lily pads point your rod at the lure and slowly reel that's it its kinda funny but i thought i would give it a try
  20. this is what i was looking at getting http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_10205251_100017002_100000000_100017000_100-17-2
  21. I usually throw in the 1 oz to 1 1/2 oz swimbaits
  22. Well that can be fixed I just need to work on my casting under and around trees :-[ :-[ :-[. Also i was looking at the jackall giron shad its 20 what do you think of this http://www.***.com/descpageSWMJACKALL-JG.html#pImage
  23. i use a 7'6'' mh baitcaster with a diawa megaforce reel with 20 lb braid but i was thinking of going to a 20-25 lb flourocarbon is this a good setup if not any tips would be great thanks
  24. They are eye catching...How do you like them? I love my carrot stix 7'3'' mh spinning I use it for everything from flukes and worms to topwater and crankbaits im starting my second year rite now and they are extremely durable mine got slamed in a door and didnt even have any marks on it
  25. I'm looking for a hard body swimbait and was wondering your guys' favorite brand I LOVE the mattlures but I tend to lose a lot of baits and so I'm looking for a cheaper alternative in 10-20 dollar range thanks
