I go out to swimming pen creek off of doctors lake which is off the st johns river here in florida.  2 diffferent time we go out to this specific area/spot, and there is a 60 ft strip of pretty tall coontail/grass i guess thats what it is. we have got a few on the outside corner of it 2.5 lb range. Anyways this morning my wife wants me to put her on a fish i am thinking oh yeah def so i take her to the place where i have had success both times.  

So we get there its about 620am water is like 86degrees nice morning.  Not so much a a hit or bite or whatever! up into that tall coontail/grass close to shore line(which is probly 15 ft from the outer edge ). This Bass is just covering ground nailing stuff. He drove me nuts last week when i went out after i got 2 and stopped catching i chased him as much as i could got stuff caught up in the grass cursing it pulling on the grass laughing at myself! He is always there i dont know if its 1 or more than 1 screwing with me, but he made me lok very stupid again this morning.   Ok back to this mornings fishing there were fish all around us chasing pods of bait and nailing them then all the sudden 50 ft away they would do it again 4 minutes later!

What do i do when this happens and i cant get a bite? I tried frogs,spinnerbaits,worms,jerk bait,superfluke, crank,swimming, even a d**n wounded fish i caught by hand!  Advice ? Anyone help me get my wife on a fish so she can understand how exciting it is! She now thinks i fabbed the pic of the fish lol

I don't fish this lure anymore, it just attracts too many little fish.

I promise you, your wife will like it!

I would also suggest giving the Fat Ika a try. It's still my #1 soft

plastic.

Excellent thanks for the suggestions! I have been looking local for the fat ika but apparently i am gonna have to order them direct! What colors do you guys suggest. In very stained water?
