That makes perfect sense, especially due to the dead grass that grew up on dry land and is now up to five feet deep. Makes it aggravating to fish horizontally with any kind of bottom style bait. Either flip it or keep it going cause if it hits that dead grass it’s not coming off. Can’t rip it or ease it out. The whole presentation is ruined. So, flip it, slower than normal sink it, dead and I mean dead stick it, or let er rip on top of that dead “stuff”. Y’all know what I wanted to call it but can’t cuss on here ?
