Thanks guys I really appreciate the help?

I want to start fishing around and under docks, as I heard that is an effective way to catch bass. What type of lures do you guys reccomend for docks?

I am going to start wacky rigging soon but I don't know what line would be best for it. I have 10lb mono line on my rod best suited for wacky rigging, but if braid with or without a flourocarbon leader would be significantly better, I will do it. So can someone help me in deciding which line to use? Thanks!

What other lures do you use in deep areas?

I have a fish finder on the boat, but nothing else. Should I still try fishing in deep holes or off the dock?

I have a spinning rod with 10 pound mono line. I have a lot of cranks, both shallow and deep. Yet I know that bass are most known for areas in cover (usually shallower areas). So is there a point in using deep cranks out in the open in ponds and lakes? I have a lake house where I fish of the dock with deep cranks- it is usually 12 feet. So when should I use deep cranks, if at all? Thanks!

Hi guys, I'm a fisherman who fishes with cranks/jerks. The problem is, I can't tell which one is what, and I think they are fished differently. I will be purchasing a new rod and reel for these, so knowing what they are will help my decision. Can someone please tell me how to determine which lures are crank and which are jerk, and how to fish with each one? (I tried attaching a photo, but it said the file was too large. If someone could tell me how to lower the size of my picture that would be great.) Thanks!
