The quest for the world record bass, their was a book "Sowbelly". It covered some attempts in growing a world record.

Another good tool is the gray barrel from a sharpie, not as messy as you would think. Some good videos can be found at youtube, searching by "bait finesse"

I have been layed up recovering from surgery and have been watching man youtube videos some of the best are the Japanes guys fishing from shore with wacky rigged baits. They catch soem nice fish. Anyone use "O" rings on softbaits?

The one thing I have leared from watching Jackall stations vids on youtube is that bass can be anywhere. Those guys pitch frogs into bushes and into floating junk anf then catch fish from that start. They fish alot of jigs with creatures, drop and wacky rigging is the strong suite. I have been catching them by using 65lb braid and pitching into the junk.

HJi new guy here, as many of you are aware most bass fishing in Japan is from the bank. Been finding many shore fishing vids by searching Utube with Japanes Bass fishing., These guys catch 5 6 pounders from ditches.
