Going to give it a try this week with my jet boat. I know water is getting low so was wondering how much water I can cover in the boat with the level where it is now?

Its a lot of fun to tie your own hair jig and catch a bass on it. Feeling of accomplishment!

A-Jay I like yours, they resemble a perch. Wish I could go without a weed guard but way to much cover where I fish. kicker, thanks! I can't wait to give those a try. The first 2 I tied up like that to not have to use a trailer

A few hair jigs I tied up

i throw jigs a fair amount. To me they have just as much success as a tube. Now as the water gets colder tie my own hair jigs and have good success with them

i do alot of bass fishing and would like to start getting away from the open face reels.i use alot of crank baits,spinners,tubes,senkos and jerk baits.can you help me to find what i need to start out with!thanx

white king size buzzbait right before dark and also green pumpkin bleeder tube during the day

did really well with the yum senko's tonight.first time i caught anything with them but had a blast with them tonight.was fishing pretty fast flowing water about 2 to 4ft deep and hooking them weightless wacky.none of the bass was real big but hey its a start!

my pflueger presidant is 5.2:1

i am fishing small mouth and large mouth bass and was wondering whats a good reel to use.i have a pfluger president but not sure if its just me but seems like i have to reel it pretty fast compared to the guys i am fishing with.i mostly use tubes,senko's,buzzbaits,flukes etc.....i love my pflueger but bought it for trout fishing so wanting to get a bass reel.any help would be great and i am looking for a spinning reel

thanx rhino,some good articles and pics there.i'm going to give it a try for sure

guys you all have been alot of help.went last night and caught a good many bass just smaller ones,but hey thats a start.guess i am learning the "Location & presentation" now!

thanx guys this is alot of help.i have fished before with plastic lures.have caught fish on purple tubes and small jigs.the potomac river is what i am fishing.i was wondering with the current if the senko and fluke was the right bait to be using.yes it is pretty swift where i am fishing

yes it does help.thats why i am asking question's so i can learn more about this bass fishing

yes i now there are fish.

also i got all the senko's and flukes colors that i've seen people say work best on here

ok here is the deal.i'm fishing a river which is pretty shallow about 3 to 4ft i'd say.i'm not catching pretty much anything.only thing i am really getting any hits on is a king size buzz bait right before dark.i purchased some senko's and flukes and also been using tubes alil.i've read up a good bit on these senko's and how you hook and use them,i've been hooking them weedless i guess you'd say cause not sure what you all are talking about when you say carlina,wacky etc... what am i doing wrong?if anybody could maybe point me to a link with pics or show me some pics of maybe the different ways to hook these senko's and flukes i would be very thankful.also what else should i maybe try for lure's?

totally agree with the nightcrawlers.the best trout bait that i found.corn works too

thats helps alil.all the fishing i do is river and creek

everybody be patient with me but i'm alil new to this whole bass fishing.i have did search through here to find out what everybody is using for lures that work best but just have no clue what they are talking about.if everybody could chim in and my say what they are using and what type of water it works best in with maybe a link so i can see what it looks like it will help me out so much.thanx for any help i might get
