How Many Of Y'all Are Bottom Feeders?

I'm not ashamed to admit that I am a Bottom Feeder.

 

Too many of the most memorably large bass I've landed have come by way of bottom contact baits.

 

Jigs are my "Search Bait."

Bottom is usually my go to nowadays. Especially that t rig bite. I don't think I can ever get tired of that feeling. You know that thump or tap tap. Just getting the hang of jigs and that's a super fun bite. But so much versatility in that t rig. Speed bag of plastics for changing baits on the fly is very convenient.

This guy as well. Nothing like feeling that thump.

I threw a tungsten jig for the first time this week...on braid... Man, that thump feels like a dang BAM BAM BAM ! Great feeling!!

To me a bottom feeder is either a lawyer or a sucker fish.

The fact that I have caught 99% of my bass with 1” to 12" from the bottom is irrelevant.

I always start with a spinnerbait, knowing that most of my time is going to be devoted on the bottom with some sort of plastic involved. I just can't start on the bottom first.

I am and always will be a bottom feeler. I hate the constant pressure of a plug or spinnerbait. Slow and Steady wins the race every time. I may not get the numbers but I will get the size.
