Frustration!

Featured Replies

What should I do when the topwater bite is off (mid day) and I'm fishing a super weedy pond?  Even a weedless texas rig was getting snagged up pretty bad.  I didn't have my spinning pole with me so I couldn't throw a weightless weedless senko either.  Any particular ideas or tips?  I was using 1/4oz bullets also.  I know there are plenty of fish in the pond because at dawn and dusk we crush them on buzzes and fast spinnerbaits and spro frogs.

i go very very very slow twitching a scum frog tight to cover one of my most productive baits for midday

midday and fishing weedy spots i usually use a wacky rigged senko or try using your frog very sorry and barely make any wake when on your retrieve

Get the Reaction Innovations Screwed Up Bullet.  It's a clear screw in piece that goes into the head of any soft plastic and makes it super weedless.  Get you a *** Ripper worm or Tapertail worm and go to town on those fish   ;)

Try a lipless crank.  Tick and rip it over the weeds.

If you can't throw one of those heavy Senko's with your baitcasting gear, you have some serious setup problems.

I use off brand senkos and I have a very cheap baitcaster.  Does need to be oiled but I'm still learning to use it properly.
