What new tackle are you testing this season? I plan on trying some stuff from Rage Tail line to see why everyone is talking about them. 

I have a couple small lakes by me with some big bass in it. I want to try some bigger baits. A 7" fluke, 7" Senko, and 7" swimbait.

Deep cranking.

I'm gonna try to fish more stuff I dont use much or dont have much confidence in. Like, deep crankbaits, lizards, senkos, jigs.

gonna work with some rage anacondas and try out the pit boss as well

Where to begin ... I spent a ton of money on new stuff ... My key baits to try are

 

1) Drop Shot - Dream Shot, ZDrop

2) Pitching - Strike King Rodent, Shellcracker

3) TRig - Some custom made senkos

4) Power Shot - Rage Hawg

Lipless cranks and jigs. Going to figure them out, one way or another.

I think I'm going to work lipless cranks and squarebills a little more than I usually do this year.  I never really give them a fair shake so it's time to really dig in and learn how to produce with these baits.

Deep cranks and jigs.

The Alabama rig, though it will just be for fun as I can't use it in my tournaments.

Alabama Rig, Square bills, and most of all Beaver style baits

I'm gonna try to fish the drop shot more.

Jig....I feel to be a good bass fisherman I have to learn how to fish this lure and I am going to give it my best shot this year.

Same. Really played with it last year but there is always room for improvement.

Jig, drop shot, shaky head to name a few presentations that I need to work on.

I'm also going to fish more swim jigs with a swimbait trailer.  Been seeing some guys on youtube doing that and it looks deadly.

Megabass pop max

Deep crank

Square bill cranks

I'm most excited about the pop max. Watched some videos on it and even though the price is a little rediculous I think it might be worth it. Can't wait to get my firs fish on one.

I am working on shakey head and jigs. Not bad so far.
