A bait you hate to use

Featured Replies

Anyone have a bait they just hate to use even though it's a proven bass catching bait.   I have to say mine is a spinner bait.   It's a proven bait no arguements there, but I just can't fish one and be productive. 

It really irritates me too that I hate fishing such a versitile bait.  But I have no results hardly when using one and for that reason I rarely throw one.

Jigs

I lose way to many in the rocks.

I did have luck swimming them last year but I hate fishing them on the bottom

Crankbait I actually like to use them but my hook up ratio is horrible

Plastic worm Texas rigged with a bullet weight.  I have been fishing for about 20 years, only two bass caught on them.  Ugh, that is terrible.  I never use them anymore so, I am sure my ratio is only going to get worse!

Spro Bronze eye... I generally miss the hookset and get a flying frog buzzing by my head!!! But its awesome when you get it.

;D ;D ;) ;D ;D

Also haven't had any luck with plastic worms but going to try again this year. Been studying

shakey head  >;)

Funny how some people's least faves are some of my faves...senkos and worms.

I agree though, I haven't been very good with spinnerbaits.

Swim baits, I just don't like them can't fish one for more than five minutes.

I got the same list.

Crankbaits. I fish from the bank, and a crankbait just begs to get hung up on every weed and twig in the water.

Id have to say fishing a football head type jig. I have had minimal success and I seem to snag them a lot. I usually lose one in the first 5 casts and give up on it. I use swim jigs a lot and thats my favorite way to fish.

Crankbaits... I most unproductive fishing ever for me.  :'( But for some reason I'm looking up crankbait rods.... oh the world works in funny ways  :;)

Rage Tails, love the fish, don't like the hype.

Crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jigs. I guess I'm not very good at this. O well, I have my worms! ;)
