I knew you was going to say that . You praised that lure so much that I found and bought one . Only used it one time and didnt catch any fish but thats OK. I'll try it again next year .

Do you secure your cranks with snap clips? What to do with the split rings?
Man , thats a small Wiggle Wart .

I dont use them often and when I do its because they came with the lure . I dont use snaps to avoid tying knots . The line should be snipped and retied often anyways .

How much water do you cover?
I'm not going to stick with something thats not working . The move can be deep , shallow , or booking right on down the bank . Many days covering lots of water has been the best strategy .I might fish three or four large coves , the main lake and the dam in 8 hours .

Eating White Bass
My home has a tremendous population of white bass . I catch them by the hundreds , decent sized ones . Does any one know how to remove the strong fishy taste without cutting out the red meat ?

Poppers vs Walking Baits
Whats the noisiest chugger you found ? I have a vintage black Pico Pop and an old large Rebel chugger about twice the size of a Pop R but same design . On windy days I make as much racket as I can around submerged timber .Jerk it hard and abrupt to get as much distance with the spray as possible and not move the lure much . Its a good technique for suffocating hot summer days , mid day , sun bearing down . I cant fish in those super high temps anymore but I sure miss this action .

Catching larger fish in a school of dinks .
No doubt. One lake in particular probably 90 percent of the bass I caught last year were between 12 and 15 inches . Then a decent population of big bass . Not many three lbers . Its a great numbers lake plus a good opportunity to catch a big fish or two . Hasnt everybody ran into a lot of small bass on major structure ? Its pretty common for me .

Power, Finesse, or Both?
If I'm pulling a lure off the bottom in twenty foot of water , hold it for a couple of seconds then lower it slowly back down on baitcasting gear , is tthat power fishing or finesse fishing ?
