  1. I was throwing a texas rig yesterday but I kept getting stuck on rocks and losing my tungstens. I texposed the hook so I think the tungsten gets wedged between the rocks. Is there an alternative to not get snagged in the rocks? Or should I switch to a different lure
  2. Do you guys recommend a swim jig or chatterbait for maybe 10+ feet clarity lakes that has a a decent patch of submerged grass.
  3. Trying to pick up some more tungstens. Ive never used the swagger tungstens before but enjoyed using the picasso tungstens. The swagger seems like a cheaper alternative. Have you guys had any issues with swagger? fraying the line etc.
  4. Are these any good? They look decent but im not sure if I should pick these up or stick to buying rage craws since they look similar.
  5. If you could only use one for clear water which one would you pick
  6. I usually go with the unpegged texas rig and when I "jig" it, it usually makes like a tap sound which basically is the tungsten hitting the hook and knot. I think that might be the reason but Im not sure.
  7. I want to have one knot that I can stick to every time. I have done the uni to uni a few times but have never tried Alberto. Is one stronger than the other? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I use 15 lb braid to 12 lb flouro.
  8. When should I use a plastic bead on a texas rig. I usually dont put a bead to protect the knot and today that resulted in my weight and hook popping off. I fish from the bank in open water and I am not sure if a bead will ruin the action in any way or if it may frighten the fish or make it seem unnatural in any way. I would really appreciate any advice, thanks.
  9. I can only buy one right now, out of the both, which one would work better for 15+ foot visibility water. Im not sure if a more aggressive action is better or a more subtle one. I am fishing them on a texas rig.
  10. is it a good color for clearer water or good for any type of water
  11. The Bama bug looks like a laminate of Green pumpkin and Junebug together. Should I pick it up? or maybe buy both Green pumpkin and Junebug instead of bama bug
  12. I have braid on my spinning so I tie a flouro leader. I only have 12 lb flouro right now so I need to pick up some more finesse line.
  13. thank you so much for the tips and information! The water is back up to where it was before. I dont have any purple lures yet so Ill pick some up, thanks!
  14. yeah i already have a few pack of the dingers
  15. I usually fish lake miramar since it is the closest
  16. Im throwing these on a 3/8 oz texas rig. The lake is decently clear and pretty deep but has a pretty big patch of submerged grass. Should I choose some different colors as well or buy some different products? Any advice is greatly appreciated thanks in advance.
  17. the top one looks really good because the last time I caught a bass from a lake it spit up a pretty orange craw. But im not sure if I should pick up that color or stick to just a full GP or Watermelon red flake
  18. The grass is fully submerged underwater and is pretty thin in diameter
  19. My lake has a pretty big patch of this grass and it gets pretty thick. Im not sure what this type of grass is but when I throw the texas rig it tends to snag alot of this grass. I cant use weightless presentations since the lake drops off pretty fast and gets pretty deep.
  20. thank you so much I did not know there was an option
  21. is a 6.5 inch trick worm too big. and im not really sure if there is shad in socal ive never seen them so i think the baitfish is usually bluegill please correct me if im wrong
  22. My lake drops off pretty deep so I don’t think weightless is really possible. Is watermelon red a good color too? Or do you prefer green pumpkin
  23. I have alot of 3/0 EWG hooks and was thinking of buying some Zoom Ultra Vibe speed craws. Does it fit a 3/0 ok or more towards a 2/0. My lake has a good amount of clarity and I have had luck with both GP and Watermelon red but last time I went fishing a bass spit up a orange craw so I am not really sure what color to pick up. Also, is there a difference between the Ultra Vibe Speed craw and the Super speed craw?
  24. I live in SoCal and the lake I fish is highly pressured. There is a long patch of what looks like eel grass but I am not sure. The water has a decent amount of clarity and is not dirty at all. I shore fish and the water drops off pretty deep Do you guys have any color recommendations or lure recommendations.
