My name is R.j. and I am relatively new to bass fishing. I am a soldier stationed at Fort Riley, KS. I started just a few months ago and thanks to the numerous amounts of videos online, I already have a very decent knowledge base to fish with. I normally cruise to local ponds and small lakes and bank fish. On any given day I can catch 3-4 small to decent sized fish in just a couple hours. I primarily throw small spinnerbaits, texas rigged worms, wacky rigged worms, top water frogs, and a crankbait every now and then. These have seemed to give me pretty good success in various places. I recently started throwing soft plastic creature baits, but I feel that from the shore line it is difficult to target those larger bass that with a boat I would be able to flip the lure to.
I am very much so an amateur and will take any tips you guys can offer! I only have 1 good baitcasting rod/reel and 1 "okay" spinning rod/reel. I don't make all the money in the world so building up my arsenal is taking a while!!!$$$
I've included a picture of a decent fish I caught this morning in a weedy pond with a frog.
Hope to get some advice from ya'll, and maybe give what little advice I have.
