Senko senko senko...its been my bread and butter in the shallows along the brush for the last 2 weeks. Got this big girl on a pink and black senko 2 nights ago.

Never caught a fish on a lipless... That's the only lure I've never caught a fish on.

Froggin in Orlando. Lakes and Ponds, shore and boat....they are working like a charm.

How are you rigging your Senko? Texas rig weightless? 

Been catching a lot on frogs also in Orlando. I have also caught them on texas rigged creature baits (craws, ugly otters, etc.) I've been meaning to throw a senko but I read spinnerbaits are good on windy days and it was really windy today. 

Keitech Swing Impact FAT all the way so far.

Catching nothing in Gainesville. I hate it here. 

 

Every post is negative. Worst area I have ever fished. 

 

The bass are here, they are just impossible to find. I didn't see one bed on Santa Fe yesterday. Makes no sense to me.

Jellyman, you are still having a tough time up there huh? When do you graduate and find more productive waters?

Give em a try watch Glenn's vid they work like a charm.

I been in a slump mainly due to lack of time.... Can't complain about OT tho. Nice rod(s) for me in the future and the old lady (yup I call her that no lack of respect there so anybody that has a problem pm me we will straighten it out) is happy too.

Feeling feisty tonight jig in the am

Down here in South Florida I have been killing them on 4" Senko type baits, Texas rigged. Fished weightless for a slow fall, and lots of pauses on the retrieve. For south Florida any watermelon color is excellant. Its a great little bait that casts a mile.

How are you rigging your Senko? Texas rig weightless? 

Yep. Texas rig weightless just like geo g. Nice and slow.  They seem to hit on the second or third drop on a cast.  Ive been using green/silver, watermelon w/ red flakes, and a red/black senko.

Top water frog? or like a weighted creature style frog?

Topwater soft plastic frogs.  I've been having the best luck on a Damaki Air Frog.

I just like frogs because they come through weeds really well. I bet a Zara spook or chug bug can't slide over lily pads like a pad crasher. Lol

Just a few dinks on Senkos wacky style for me.  A couple weeks ago we went to Istokpoga and it was blowing a hurricane.  Found them bedding and aggressive on EZ Swimmer's up the creek. Here at home the spawn is long over. Every day off is blue bird sky the day after a front and they're pretty closed mouth.

Senko is usually going to find them but it has been on the slow side.  I'm not fishing for bass only peacocks and I'm using crappie jigs.  These little things just attract fish, caught peacocks, a few decent bass and an oscar.

 

In the last few days I've caught a snook, larger jacks and 2 barracuda this morning, haven't been out for fresh yet.

The dinks are really biting good here on junebug senkos and frogs.

Last tourn it was all black/blue whatever....Jig, stick baits etc.

Locally just messin around it's like 0119 said. Its been tough in the canals and ponds, but they're there.

It just takes some time.

Frogs, crawfish pattern lipless crankbaits, and 1/2oz dirty jigs with a kinky beaver trailer. That's what has been working for me lately. 

I got this one the other day hiding in the gator grass.
