Idk but one time my dad had a grub and a plastic container in his tackle box and they kind of just... combined.

If it is weedy where you are fishing I would just flip/pitch into the weeds. I did that a ton last year with great success. You could theoretically fish it like a jerk bait but I'd rather use a fluke. But yes, stick baits are very versatile and can be flip/pitched, "jerked", and so many other ways. It's just that it gets really weedy in the summertime. You would probably get more luck fishing it like a jerk bait in the spring.

no

Keep them in the bag?

Grub or chunk Jr

Well had I waited and seen these posts I would had gone with a MXF, but I bought a MHF. However I will also be fishing spinnerbaits and t rig worms on it and I think a MXF may be in my future anyway, having those three rods will probably cover any situation except for a few baits that I don't plan on using. Also that rod I had was actually a MLM.

You have 30 replies in your other post asking the same exact question. Read them.

for me I used 1 lure, stuck with it, and used it every day.

I was wondering this too. When and why would you guys chose one bait over another when flipping? When do you use jig, brush hog, beaver, worm, tube?

do you guys use super fluke or fluke jr?

ok then. i fish from the bank so i always travel light. sometimes i wish i could have the luxury of 6+ different rods all ready to pick up and fish (:

yeah im fishing heavy weeds and brush. i lost way too many big fish last year just because i couldnt yank em out of there. eventually i got frustrated so i just waded in and pulled a 4 pounder out of the weeds

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

finesse. most will say dropshot or ned rig

ok i found a nice MHF spinning rod on sale and i think ill pair it with a president. thanks guys!

oh and you dont need all those different combos. i have one at the moment and still caught 200+ bass last summer. will be getting another combo too though. Do you fish from a boat?

I may purchase this for fluke and senko fishing. Let us know what you think about it because i am considering it

I have a Medium power Medium action spinning rod that use finesse presentations with. I would like to fish flukes and senkos this year but i dont think this rod has enough backbone to get a good hookset (i always texas rig) or get that fish out of cover (i always target cover). Would a MHF spinning do the trick?

That all sounds fine. Maybe add a finesse setup and you're set. ML spinning with medium to fast tip, 6 pound yo zuri or p line cx. Or just go plain flouro.

I have done wacky but i did not see my results go up and i kept getting snagged and those Gamas are a buck a hook! Fishing from the bank means im usually fishing some kind of cover

Exact same for me but im a lefty so the opposite for me

http://www.basspro.com/Browning-Fishing-Medallion-Spinning-Rod/product/1301300551215/ what are your thoughts on this rod, specifically the MH one. I havent really heard of it before but it seemed like a really good deal for a nice budget spinning rod.

So I'm gonna give spinnerbaits a go this year. Can you guys recommend a 3-4 spinnerbait "starter pack"? I fish smaller bodies of water and will likely throw them on a MH spinning rod. Also so what are your go-to fluke colors, and what do you use when the bass aren't feeding on shad? (Or in my case, there are no shad)

I always Texas rig does that make any difference?

Well i think the 4 inch would be well suited for the shallow ponds i have by my house, but ill get a bag of 5 inch in case of windy day/deep water. Thanks for all the advice though guys i really appreciate it.
