Lazy/ Mighty Ike
I have both lazy ike's and flatfish, lazy ikes look good but catch very little when it comes to bass, flatfish on the other hand catch many bass and quality size bass, my dad is extremely stubborn to say the least and he uses only jitterbugs and flatfish, so i can attest to the fact...flatfish catch bass and often times big bass, he likes the orange ones, the only drawback is it catches many fish as well as bass, you can go a whole day using the flatfish and catch many sunnie bass pickerel and perch by the bucket loads

Big Bass -VS- Most Bass Lure
Not to step on anyones toes but I.M.H.O id have to say the 5 inch senko catches the most but usually for my fishing buddy and i the smallest bass, often times many dinks, creature baits in any size and color because i have used many catch quite a few and the average size is the best quality for me

Just learning the Pig-N-Jig
All i can say in my honest opinion is get the natural colors for jigs, like a few blue and black, some white, some green and you should be set, as far as what the guiys have said many times i believe its true.. when learning a new technique with a hard lure such as the jig n pig, take that rod out only and use it all day and just that, im bad and havent done it like that and have switched over to any other setup i had in the boat at the time, good luck bassfishingmachine
-
heddon swayback spook
its probably the same as all of the other walk the dog lures, but just because of that hump in the back i seemed to purchase it, cause it was slightly different then the other similar lures like that, dang baitmonkey has me really good lately ;D, saw it on a bill dance show and knew i was buying them eventually, anyhow anyone use this and had any luck?
-
how do you fish your senkos?
for me i use either a 3/0 or 4/0 ewg gammy hook with those fish catching senko's and i leave them texas rigged with no weight, but a small bullet weight might be something ill try when the spring rolls around
-
AM I THE ONLY ONE?

Spawn Fishing
with that regard fishingyank is right, i think i read somewhere(forgot the exact quote) but of the thousands of eggs that bass fertilize, like 1 percent of those reach adulthood, so messing with that lakes spawn would be really bad, already few make it to become bass big enough to reach adulthood and then those laying eggs cannot even help with that 1 percent because they are moved from their current lake, thats my only concern, just my opinion but i totally agree stocking you pond would be great, i would try going to the local dec and see what they say, tell them you dont want fingerlings and that you want bass of size, hope some of this helps

Rigging some Tubes?
finally bought a bunch of tubes, if anyone can tell me a few ways to rig them like exactly how you guys do it, that would really help, and also is the texas rigged tube with a bullet weight work well, and would you expose the hook slightly out of the tube on this rig or keep it inside the body? Thanks jon
