    So Im newer to fishing, more specifically bass fishing. I have at the rods and reels i need but i'm stuck with one thing. The question I have is if I have a $100 to spend on soft baits. What should I buy? Senkos and worms i have so Im only talking trailers, craws, beavers, no swim baits etc. Please comment baits you think are crucial to have.

    Okay so I know the bait you're using is really important but my question is how do you know which bait to use if they are similar. In my arsenal of baits I have a lot of different soft plastics and when I'm trying to fish slowly on the bottom I normally go off of color but does the bait actually matter? Like if I am throwing a texas rig what is going to decide whether I tie up a craw or ribbon tail. And when I do fish slow What is the difference of fishing a fitness worm, jig, or any slow moving bait, if the color matches and sizes is it just personal opinion or is there better times to throw a craw over a worm and so on?

    Does anyone know good fishing pond/lakes around Greenville, NC? I don't have a boat or a kayak so I'm looking for bank fishing. I know only one place where to fish but its heavily pressured. You can throw whole tackle store without any luck. For example today I used: variety of trick worms on Texas rig, shaky head, dropshot, weightless, craws, lipless crankbait. All I got is just a few nibbles. Went fishing at 6:00 am.

    I was wondering how to fish these zoom lizards. They are the 6 inch super salty in green pumpkin with purple green flake. Ive never fished soft plastics before but i was reading up on it and with lizards i think theyll be best during all phases of the spawn. I learned to basically just fish it near shore and along beds can be deadly. Most of my curiosity is how to rig them. I have some gamakatsu 4/0 offset shank hooks, i see a lot of videos of people rigging soft plastics with larger hooks. I was also curious if you can rig it on a jig head (does jig head color matter) I have smaller jig heads in size 6 since i do not fish exclusively bass and i felt that this was a good all around size hook for all different species of fish. Thanks everyone!

    Hey guys, I am just starting to get into pouring my own soft plastics. I have made a few plaster molds of baits I designed out of clay and a few pounds of old baits I am going to melt down. Some of the old plastics have a bad smell to them... not the "good" bad smell that fish like either. My first question is: Is there a good way to get rid of that bad smell so that is is more of a neutral scent? and my second is: What could I use to make an effective homemade scent for the baits I pour? Thanks!

    Hi. I'm international student in NC. I do bank fishing. Usually, I don't have problems catching fish but for last two or three weeks I can't catch anything. Not even a single bite. Not even pan fish, bowfin, or anything else. I use junebug, watermelons /red flake lizards, smoky shad fluke, red/yellow spinnerbaits, white buzzbait. Nothing works. Same baits I used earlier with no problem. But I can see a longnose gar activity out on the pond. The water is between murky/greenish/muddy. I don't know the depth but it is not deep at all. May be up to 10 feet, which I doubt. What is the cause of the luck of biting fish? How to manage that? Thanks.

    I mostly use spinners, and crank baits. I have some soft plastics but I dont really know how to rig them or use them in the water. Any Tips are appreciated. Thanks.

    Seems to be that purple and junebug colored soft plastics work best around where ive been fishing lately. I have been pretty cheap and usually buy the cheapest worms i could get my hands on bc ive been paying off alot of wedding/truck bills. But I want to expand and use what would work best. Im a firm believer in quality or quantity so I need some help on this. So tell me...what is your favorite brand of soft plastics? What works best for you in lowlight conditions as far as plastics?

    Hey guys, Sort of a newbie in bass fishing. I'm only 21 but I'm having a hard time with anything i use. My dad gave me some stuff to get started such as some top water lures and tons of crank baits. I don't know why but I seriously can say that I haven't caught one fish off a crank bait and I can say that I have been fishing at least 20 times this summer. I got frustrated and moved on. Discovered the Texas rigged and Carolina rigs for soft plastics and again I can honestly say that I haven't caught one fish on it at all my local lakes in a 20 mile radius. I know my description is vague but I am becoming frustrated spending money on plastics and what not and having nothing to show for it. I just want to be an ok bass fisherman. Any advice is desperately desired. As many people's input would also be helpful. Thanks fellas

    I have just bought a baitcaster reel and it is my first one. I decided i want to upgrade to some higher test line and some braid. I was wondering if the braid effects the way my senkos or other soft plastics fall in the water. Also, i bought 20 lb. test and i didnt know if i should go higher or not.

    Has anyone used Yum® Money Hound Topwater Softbaits? If so, how? And did you catch anything sizable? http://www.basspro.com/Yum-Money-Hound-Topwater-Softbaits/product/10203466/58623
