Small But Successful

[Broke bass fisherman]

Went out today for about 30 minutes, not much but first time I has any chance since my wife's surgery. Caught these two:

I know they aren't that big but I went to a pond I have never fished, and fished a lure and technique I have never used.

I was fishing a weightless t-rigged 5" senko dead sticking it into the weeds. Needless to say I need some work on it but I am sold on senkos. To catch fish on a foreign pond that was so stained with algae I couldn't identify structure if I wanted got me real excited.

Managed to lose three but I am now confident in this lure and technique.

I want to thank all of you who have been answering my questions about plastics and thank the entirety of BR for the info. I could never have fished this pond with any of my usual gear. Thanks again guys.

I love using 5" senko worms they always get you a bite when it seems like nothing else is working.

Nice work, as long as you catching them size don't really matter. The ones I got sat where all twelve inches n under. I never used a senko before, maybe on day if I can get a pack of June bug or red shad I never had success on the greens or natural colors.

Update:

Went out again today with the bite slowing but I managed these two fishing the 5" senko weightless again.

This guy was a beast to bring in; if he hadn't hit it 2 feet from the shore I might not of got him in ( I was fishing on my UL setup today) 1.5#

Quite accidental, through across the Pond andgot stuck in a tree afar popping it out of the tree I was trying to get the senko to sink but

The algae on top wasn't allowing it. Figuring the cast was a wash I started to reel it in got about two feet of the shore and the senko dropped I a soft spot a boom fish on.

This one was on the first cast.

That first one is a really nice fish. Bet that was a fun ride. Now you know there are bigger in there your gonna have to bring a beefier setup LOL

How long where you out for?

Background of the second pic looks like a farm pond? You know how long that pond has been there and been stocked?

Man those senkos work wonders man I am going out now and see if anything is biting after all this rain we had here in Jacksonville

I was out there about an hour or so. And yes it's a farm pond, don't know anything about it today was only my second time there. Found it on google maps while my wife was in surgery, went out and look at that there are fish. Still trying to figure out whose property it is on so I can ask for permission to fish it, and hopefully I'll be able to figure more info out about it.
