Spro McCstick in the sexy shad color

Baby brush hogs are a staple for me, or any creature bait for that matter, but I took some Yamamoto swim senkos to a farm pond yesterday and caught three of the biggest bass of my life, the biggest being in the 6-7# range.

1.fat ika's-easily num.1

2.kreature style baits

3.senkos

def. with summer almost hear it will be more shad imitation

lures(traps,topwater,etc.)

As it has been for the last couple of years: a Strike King Rage Tail Space Monkey in green pumpkin, on a 4/0 Owner Twist Lock Hook with 1/8oz weight.

Honestly my go to bait has been a brush hog, I am happy about that because it's been my first year catching on them and they have really become a confidence bait. I tied my pb of 5.3 on them. Now on to conquering rage tails.

My grandfather allowed me to look though his tackle box a while back and I found an old Bagleys Bang-O-Lure in gold with black stripes.It has been a very good jerk bait.I use it in the mornings and have caught my biggest bass of the year so far a 4#er.

Top producers for me so far this year(in order):

Skinny Dipper/Big Ez (soft swimbaits)

Ol Monster

Red Eye Shad/Aruko Shad/Excaliber (lipless cranks)

Jig/Rage Chunk

Sweet Beaver

Numbers : Weightless Jackall Flickshake 5.8", Dropshot

Size : Football(5lb) and Swim Jig(4lb)

So far this Spring, its really depended on the lake I was fishing. Most all the lakes I fish are big, deep and clear (depending on the rain of coarse). But so far, here's my top 5:

#1 - BBB 6" Kreit Kreature (Green Pumkpin/Red) Carolina Rigged - Best bait for quality fish, one over 6lbs and several over 5lbs. These have replaced Brush Hogs in my boat. I fished Brush Hogs all last year and never caught as many BIG fish as I have with these. I have actually ran out of Kreatures, put on a Brush Hog the same color and never managed a single strike.

#2 - Megabass Vision 110 Jerkbait - Best quantity bait, 76 fish this year, 16 on my 1st trip with it, 19 on my second.

#3 - Zoom Magnum Trick Worm (Watermelon Candy) Wacky Rigged Weightless

#4 - Zoom Shaky Head Worm or Zoom Trick Worm on 3/8oz Skip Gap Jig Head (Green Pumpkin)

#5 - 1/2oz Razorblade Spinnerbait (Silver & Gold Leaf, Shad)

Honestly my go to bait has been a brush hog, I am happy about that because it's been my first year catching on them and they have really become a confidence bait. I tied my pb of 5.3 on them. Now on to conquering rage tails.

You won't conquer Rage Tail baits they will conquer you!
