I went out there today at 4:15 and fished until about dark-thirty. It had just finished raining really hard and the water was stained. It was so cloudy that it was almost dark.

 Started fishing an ultra-lite with Matzuo prism grub and hooked into a 2 pounder on my 10th cast but I lost him.  I then succeeded in losing All the grubs in the pack that I had just bought.  Those things are stick magnets; I lost two of them in three casts.  

Around dark I started fishing a 3" crawfish and hooked two, but lost one.

The weather forecast for tomorrow is going to be the same as today. So I'm going to be there with more prism grubs and a stiffer rod showing those bass who's running home with there tail between there legs!

Did you try wacky rigging a senko yet???

calm days

soft stick bait/senkos - soaked overnight in scent - natural color that matches background

straight tailed worms weightless or split shot w/scent - natural colors

in-line spinner - chrome or white

windy days

translucent hardbait(crank,trap,jerkbait) that matches primary forage

small spinnerbait - white or yellow or perch(firetiger)

Find the emerging grass and fish the edges. Good luck

No I haven't. I was doing fine with what I was using. I didn't fish for very long so I didn't have to change baits too much.

I'll try it tomorrow and see how it goes. Is there any way to make that rig weedless?

I fish a similar pond here in Boston. When I use crankbaits, jerkbaits, and spinnerbaits, the bass seem to do the same thing. They swim up behind it and stop. I usually speed up my retrieve a lot. And if this doesn't work, I go with stickbaits like the senko.
