Do Lures Have To Run Straight? Yes, No, Not Sure & Why?
I have two spinnerbaits that are designed to run left or right. Grubs both paddletails and twist tails have to absolutely be rigged straight and run straight. For some reason I am not good at threading a grub on a jig perfectly straight.

What do you think about eating bass?
Being most people practice catch and release I would think that getting rid of minimum length limits would improve most fisheries. Not only that but you have to close there mouths, squeeze their tails, wiggle the fish around and if a game warden can get it to touch thats a hundred dollar fine. Just get rid of minimum length limits.

Does the bait run crooked or do you manipulate it to do so?

Thats what my Rogers does. I have cranks advertised to do it but dont.

Buzzbaits dont need to run straight. I bump cover easier with a buzzbait that runs off to the side. I like cranks to run straight especially the deep divers.I have a vintage Rogers squarebill that cannot be tuned. It run right then left , hunting .Its fish catchingest squarebill I have. I ended up getting some more on the auction site. The Lower right is the one that hunts. I'm hoping the others prove just as good.

Floating Rat L Trap
Me neither. I think I picked them up at a thrift store long ago and were thown in with all the other cranks that I never use. I have seven boxes of crankbaits and still have spares lying around . No more buying crankbaits.

Ned rig grub?
I have always kept the unused portion of a torn up worm for use on a jighead. I have a whole bag of half Yum Dingers that are my Neds. In the past I had a sack full of jelly worm tails or whatever else i happened to use. Fliptail worms cut down real nicely. Craws become trailers. Lizards usually get chucked but I have used them as trailers too.

One Lure - Only 1 Big Bass...GO!

Ned rig grub?
I started using those last year. They look all stuck together until submerged then those legs seperate and float. Then they catch bass after bass . I caught a couple dozen bass on one and its still tied on waiting for this season to catch more.

Crankbait and a jig. I've caught some big ones with a crawfish colored Arbogast Mudbug.

Go to Drew Cooks page on Facebook and you can see the striped bass that bottomed out the 50 lb scale during practice.

'26 Lippert Bassmaster Elite at Lake Martin
Its appears to me that Lake Martin is an example of a lake that needs the bass population thinned out.

I dont mind watching tournaments like this. Catching a three lber is a big deal. I like to see how the guys who do it, do it.

Keeping a positive attitude
Its easy to get spun out when someone cuts me off. I've learned to not let it get to me. Sometimes getting cut off has been a positive.
