all my outfits are baitcasters with 15-20lb fluorocarbon line on them

me and a buddy at work usually hit some local lakes or ponds near office parks. im looking to take one rod and reel and one bait with me. something i can use anywhere, anytime, and any type of cover. ive been using brush hogs lately with some luck. i think maybe if i take another color with me or maybe some rage tail space monkeys i can do better. little help? i always take a few poles and half my gear with me to use one thing and i need just ONE lure to bring em in!

i use em good prices for a 25 pack like 5 or 6 bucks

Caught some nice fall bass. Two were caught on a green pumpkin brush hog unpegged bouncing off the bottom through a weed bed in open water. A smaller one was caught on a red eye shad. Great strikes and fun.

Wanting to try this out on my lake. Its the one thing bass havent seen.

h2o xpress reel with 15lb fluoroclear paired with a h2o xpress 7'MH rod. i can throw any weight spinnerbait with this setup with no issues and best of all its super light

rage craw or chunk occasionaly paca

fat boy jig

well ive seen the bass trolling by the brown weeds just under the bream alot and ive got 2 packs of rage shads i havent used yet....nows my time and im trying to get my local academy or dsp to get some space monkeys. the lake isnt too shallow just some spots. most of its deep and most action takes place in that muddy channel

My local lakes I fish once a week sometimes change alot. As you can see I took pictures of today how the water looks and weeds. Cloudiness of some of the water. Muddy spots in the channel. Most of the fish are in the channel and on weedlines waiting but I have tried everything I can withouth getting snagged on weeds to get a bite. I got one good bite on a spinnerbait. How do I attack this place when Its like this? Depth, Id say shallow goes from 2-5ft. The channel is 5-8ish or more. The lake is a 100 years old so everything is all natural. Ive used senkos texas rigged, 10" worms texas rigged ( heavy weights sometimes to get through the weeds ), spinnerbaits just above the weeds and/or through them, chatterbaits, rage tail craws, zoom speed craws....the lake isnt cloudy in all spots but im bank/dam fishing because of no boat so im limited. I have over the past 2 summers caught atleast 5-8 bass in a few hours every time I went and none were under a pound, most averaged 3-5lbs. The weeds get like this every summer and usually I catch a few but I'm thinking they are seeing the same things or Im not sure where they are. Theres so many bream in the lake the bass hang around them and dont touch them so usually they arent chasing much.

My local lakes are so full of weeds I just need to start punching through them. The bass are trolling through the outside edges in channels and sometimes in the pockets. I've use a brush hog lately but one bass. Might wanna try something differen.t The water is shallow to deep and heavily stained/cloudy/muddy in spots. Im wanting to try Culprits new incredi craw but I havent seen my local dsp have them in stock yet. TW has them.

i have a pack of them i use a 5/0 texas rigged it has some good action lots of it

Anyone get their hands on these yet and see how they do? Im interested in getting some if i can find them in store

how long is that sale?

yeah they do randomly have things on sale i picked up some stuff a week or so ago, but the h2o rods are legit.

i did use kvd line conditioner til i found out about reel magic, i spray reel magic the night before i go out the next day and the morning of....all my reels no matter what type of line cast effortless and like a dream.

I went to one earlier in the year and got a h2o ethos rod...best $40 ever spent on fishing gear. Im looking to upgrade all my rods to h2o series. When will the rod riots happen again this year?

i just picked up the original brush hog in green pumpkin at my local walmart for $1 a pack woo hoo

i use a 4/0 or 5/0 mostly 5/0 texas rigged with a 1/8oz weight texas rigged. catch some of my biggest bass every summer like this deep or shallow water it falls slow and has great action....red shad is my most effective color tho. i just picked up some moccassin and crawdad color in 10" today cant wait to try them out

some stuff i picked up wasnt even marked clearance i had someone price check for me

picked up some catfish charlies blood dip bait at my local academy...hope it works!

i just left there today and got some rage tail shads for $1.73 a pack, some kvd sexy frogs for $2.47 each, and a few other things. my cheapest trip to that store haha

some how i got another pack of ewg hooks from them in 3/0 the other pack i got was 2/0 thanks! haha

yeah they are smaller than 2 lbs but super fat from cleaning my hooks!

the lake i fish has alot of speckled catfish and occasionally ill catch some channel catfish. which i think the speckeld ones are some sort of channel catfish. i did catch a 14lb channel on liver one time there
