Thanks for all the warm welcomes guys. glad to be here!

I was fishing below Burgess Falls today near Cookeville Tn not expecting anything at all. The water was muddy and with a very strong current. fishing in about 1 foot of water i pulled this guy out from under a rock along the bank.You never know whats in dem der waters.

If you wanted to add a soft plastic, i would suggest a zoom super fluke. It is best rigged weightless (would save you some money on bullet weights or jigheads) rig it with a swivel and 2 foot leader on a worm hook and its nearly impossible to fish wrong. Its the cheapest and most effective addition to any tackle box IMO. Pearl White is the way to go. Tight lines, and good luck too ya.

I discovered the wonderful world of soft jerkbaits just last year. I grabbed a pack of the pearl white Super Flukes at the local bass pro. Had read a few articles about them,but did not have high expectations. Boy was i wrong, I honestly didn't put them down all season except for maybe once or twice. In my local lakes the fish never could get enough. Fish them on top in mid summer, they rarely make it a couple of feet before a bass nails it,and what a site to see on top. during early spring and prespawn i fish them slow and let them fall for several seconds at a time then a few light twitches, it produces when the water is well below 50 degrees.and i always fish them weightless on a swivel with a 2 foot leader that pulls them down at just the perfect rate. just couldn't put them down, Went through prob 200 of them, the best colors in my local waters are baby bass, watermelon red, smokin shad, and number one that never lets me down, Pearl white.
