keep the flat in the bag or a box

jawbone frog if you have dicks sporting goods

You live in pa like, go to dicks and buy 5 jawbone frogs of each color, this will cover you for the rest of the year. good luck

same here, just keep it up or go at the beginning or later in the day. good luck

spinnerbait/crankbait to soft swimbait to frog to senko

in clear water

i like the 5 foot jerk bait by rapala, the hooks are weak so get 80/0 gamakatsus...

just use split shots

you don't need to, i didn't, but use gamakatsu, easy to find and good

spook around corners then cranks to wacky rigs or trigs to jigs to flipping baits to new dock

is shipping free?

24/7/365 literally, i just start bass fishing and i went out and the lake froze while i was out, and i was throwing a frog, lol, i didn't catch anything, wonder why...

my hooks are good

1. you can get away with bigger hooks in stained water. change out hooks if you can bend them with lite pliers or they aren't sharp. if the hooks touch they are too big. use high quality stuff. on topwater, use better hooks in the back, if you can afford it change both. 2. only one split ring

Its scary but fun

I fish a quarry a lot. It is very deep. My guess would be 175+ feet, will bass be that deep?

throw confidence baits, moving ones too

Jigs Jigs Overview There are many types of jigs, and it can get confusing. Typically, jigs look like crayfish. As you know, swim jigs look like baitfish. They are affective allayer long, and can be found on almost any angler's rod who is worth his "two cents" all year round. Especially prominent in the winter and summer months when bass become lethargic, are jigs. Just as one would use different crankbaits in different situations jigs are the same way. Certain jigs strive in certain areas where others do not. Jig Types Football: Ever try to roll a football to your buddy? Chances are it didn't roll straight towards him. Football jigs are designed to roll like them on hard ground. The "wobble" makes it look more realistic. They usually have a horizontal line tie. Grass: Designed for heavy cover and vegetation, grass jigs are designed to be completely weedless. Usually have a vertical line tie and thick weed guard. Flipping: Most similar to a Grass jig, these jigs are designed to be placed into thick cover like wood piles. they have a very thick weed guard and line tie will vary. Skipping: Designed with a flat bottom, these jigs are designed to be skipped into cover with an under-hand cast, similar to the action required to skip a stone. Rock: Specifically for not getting wedged in rocks, they have a wide, flat head and will come through rip rap (rocks) with ease. Shakey: A go-to finesse bait for many anglers, the shakes head is a round jig with a flat bottom. It is designed to stand up. Try a 4-6" finesse worm. Punching: The most heavy duty jig made, it will come through almost anything. consists of a tungsten or lead cone with a skirt and extra heavy-duty hook. Swim: A swim jig is built with a hydrodynamic head designed to cut through the water column. Most swim jigs are designed to looked like baitfish. Whether that is shad, perch, bass, or bluegill, all are very affective. Just like a jerkbait, swim jigs can be fished a variety of ways. Experiment with multiple methods to discover the best technique for you. One method is called a straight retrieve. just reel it in consistently to keep it a desired depth. You can also try lifting your rod about a foot and then reeling in the slack. This will create a rise-and-fall action. Bladed Swim Jigs: Basically a swim jig with a metal blade attached to the jig head. the blade creates vibration when retrieved. Will work well in dirty and clear water. Jig Tips Rod: 7'2" MH for MOST applications except heavy-duty stuff. Will work well in 3/8-1oz jigs. longer rod helps with cast distance and hookset. Reel: Any bait caster with at least 10 pounds of drag will be fine. Slower gear ratios will ensure that you do not reel too fast. Faster gear ratios will help you take in line faster. Line: 12-20 pound fluorocarbon is best in clearwater situations. Low stretch and visibility. 15-30 pound braid. Smaller diameter and high strength are positives. When using braided line, be sure to use heavy duty hooks, as it will compliment the no stretch qualities of the line. Color: Perhaps the most confusing aspect of jig fishing. In clear water, natural colors will work best. Bright and dark colors will be best in stained waters. Trailers: Try to match you trailer with your jig color. If you can not, try to match the opposite.

i wish i could, but the lake is highly private and theres a military base so i might get shot

pretty much me too, 1/4 oz spinnerbaits, husky jerk by rapala, strike king kid 1.5 sexy shad, will work any place berkley hardballs too try walmart stores, if you live in the us theres one near you, they have cheap lures that work!

130 for lakes and big fish 90 for ponds and many fish match the forage

great ideas ^ i fish a small pond with a dock. I bring 3-4 rods. I leave my tackle bag on the dock. set out 2 03 rods for catfish or (if I'm UNlucky) a turtle. then i bass fish by covering water. Tie on a 1/0 or 2/0 EWG Worm hook, get a pack of zoom finesse worms 4.5" get a 1/8 oz worm weight, use this aka texas rig. cast shallow to cove and work slow. then fish small cranks or topwater shallow and in the middle. soft bodied swimsuits work too slow down small baits patience =fish

they work but are hard to put on and off they also have a swivel

what company

How do I fish clear water with 20+ feet of visibility hard bottom and leave bottom. will be fishing from a dock
