I've been in a slump for a long time, but yesterday I did good and got out of it. I was using a Trigged 7" Powerworm in watermelon/chart with a 1/4oz egg sinker and a Booyah Moon Talker in 3/8oz. I cought most of them on the T-rig, and gained a ton of confidence with the powerbait/t-rig combo. I have to say, that powerbait stuff is hard to beat. Most of my bass wouldn't have been cought if they didn't hold on for as long as they did. I ordered 5 packs last week and last night I ordered 2 more.

In the later afternoon I was doing good, the biggest was 4lbs. Pulled her off a bed 8 feet from where I was standing. She jump clear out of the water right infront of me, then pulled drag and ran under a log. I hauled her out and landed her, and my line was very beat up.

Since my line was nicked, I cut off my rig and tied on a Booyah Moon Talker. First cast, a 2.5 lber hits it half way in. (6.5 lbs of bass in two casts is not bad around here) Fished it for a hour without any more hits, so I switched back to the t-rig. Cought another bass on that before dinnertime.

All in all it was a great trip. The weather was perfect, the bass where biting, and I was catching them. I'll take that anyday.

Nice one! Up here we use 7" pumpkinseed Powerworms with alot of success.

Nice job! Those power bait worms are no joke. I use the 7 and 10" versions all throughout the warmer months.

Nice job Bucket!! I love the Tequila Sunrise and Red Shad Powerworms. I'll have to try melon/chart.

Yeah Red Shad works great. I prefer melon/chart and darker colors for muddy water. I would have ordered a bunch of red shad, but they where out.

yup it was a fun trip me and bucket had we were in a slump ever since muddy man jinx us > he said "i hope you dont catch anything until may" after we had a great trip back in march.

and then bucket tied on his night talker on later and casted it and the lure went flying into the water and an 6 doolar lure was lost :'(
