T-rig worm or craw

 

X2 T-rig is my favorite most of the time.

Give me any crankbait and I'll be happy fishing for the day!

Jigging and T-rigging

I like it all......call me a kid, but give me a bucket of Crickets and an UL spinning rod, with some big bedded up Bluegill and I am in heaven.......

Favorite would have to be TX rigged plastics or a Siebert brush jig.

Probably going to give the crown to wacky techniques - both weightless and weighted. By far, I catch the most bass using this technique. And since I fish for enjoyment, not a paycheck, or tournament competition, that's fine by me :smiley:

Crankbaits>Jigs>everything else

The reservoir close to my home has little in the way of pads & surface structure and is fairly deep so I fish Texas rigged worms of various types/sizes. I've been thinking about trying a whacky rigged Senko, but haven't because I fish only an hour or two per trip between two jobs & daughter's dance/swimming practices.

All in all it's been a good year because this is the first year in my life I've taken soft baits seriously and took the time to learn how to fish them.

Casting/Pitching jig - 70%

T-rig/C-rig - 20%

Cranks, SB, Top water - 10%

buzzbaits are my favorite for bass

Pitching to shoreline docks,laydowns, grass, riprap, seawalls. Pretty much anything pitching to shallow cover.

Also Throwing reaction baits like shallow/deep cranks,spinnerbaits and jerk baits. And throwing frogs.

Oh yes, jig fishing for me.

I cant say that I have a "favorite technique", I seem to catch the most on topwater,  Lately its been soooooooooooo HHHOOOTTTT I have to go deep therefor Carolina rig.  Most of the lakes here in East Texas have had the vegetation eradicated, so I dont get to use a lot of weedbed techniques. I would have to say that I'm most proficient at Top water, free floating Flukes, Carolina rig, and then crankbaits.

I know it, and it's such a shame.

I used to power fish 100% of the time and its a feast or famine deal. Took years and years of slow days to learn that finesse fishing can be just as fun and save the day more often than not. I almost enjoy finesse as much as power fishing now. Still hard to beat the feeling of a solid jig bite followed by a rock hard hook set or to watch a bass explode on a topwater bait and have the nerves/patience to wait long enough before setting the hook.
