Inflatable Raft Bum

Blah ha ha Welcome! Stripers!, I'm jealous... Stripers are as close to blue marlin as this redneck will ever experience..

No, i fish hydrilla filled pits. Senko wacky rigged weightless, twitch twitch twitch.. They come up out of that cover and crush it. You can let it sink down through it too if you are using the correct octopus hook

I have no idea. I dont follow tournaments at all. Its mind numbing to watch other people fish. Fishing is a lifestyle, not some competition. I fished probably five in ny life, got checks about 1/3 of the time.. Still didnt make up for turning what i enjoy INTO WORK, and tearing the hell out of the Skeeter

They have GOBS of action, but i assumed he meant texas rigged vs any style Senko trumps texas rig any day of the week

Worm, 7"

Blue fleck Berkley Power Worm

Berkley Power Worm.. Blue fleck Hands down best ever

I need to get better at this.. I need to keep the short&thin fish,.. Not just the short fish.

You need to be low down to the water and just practice some side arm skips.. You'll eventually get to where you can skip it pretty well. Looks just like a shad skipping across the top of the water to flee an attacking bass. Really draws them over to see what the commotion is all about.. WHAM!!

Don't get me wrong, i have caught many a large bass with the fluke laying on bottom (while i take out a backlash on a baitcaster) so they do take both fast and slow,.. I find fast is the ticket though. Again, one guys opinion. Just so much more precise w/ spinning reel, especially off angle flips, skipping up under docks etc. "Skipping" a fluke on points can be phenomenal.. Cant do that with a bait-caster. (Not gonna happen)

Great link, i MUST start trying this! Thanks

I'll check her out, thanks

I have never fished these. (I'm admittedly a top of the water column fisherman/ 12ft and above) (strip pits 90 ft deep).. I can see i need to learn this technique

Thanks for sharing. A lesson for us all. Sounds like you and him were thick as thieves regardless.

Its funny to see all the differing opinions. We're not talking politics we're talking fishing line. I wasn't laughing at you.

Lol

You want a lil' stretch
