buzzfrog Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 next weekend hittin the water at 6, Plan on bringing 5 rods. As 2 other people are going. SO please grade me, or add suggestions, i know i could get out on the water and need to change up. Since i finally got off the shore even with the tips, it is a bit hard. So stained water... Crankbait rod starting off with a chart black back kvd silent, this lake seems to be heavily pressured most of the time. 2nd rod a a M spinnig setup for weightless and light shakey heads. 3rd a MH spinning rod for T-rig and some C-rigging(maybe a rage thumper, 4th rod is a 6'8 Mh for 1/2 0z spinnerbaits. last rod is a MH dealers choice, frog rod, For early morning topwater and well all day. any help is appreciated. this site has made me a better shore man and i am sure it will help me on my off shore fishing. My plan early is to hit up a few dock littered coves then there is the long and winding cove that winds up flowing into a small type lake that has a creek at the end up it.. only problem is i cant get my toon near the creek or id hit that up. I was gonna hit up all the bends and points in the cover anything Guys.... Quote
Big-O Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 You're plan sounds fine to me... Rods and rigs are good as well. If you water is starting to cool, the shallow bite should be getting in high gear. Top and moving baits early and into mid morning with those conditions. Don't be afraid to head back into the back of coves and creeks as long as there is a good channel or drop nearby. Switch to slower presentations as the day progresses or the sun gets higher... Good luck and Safe Fishing Quote
buzzfrog Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 Hey thanks, I know that post was kinda duh. But sometimes I get confused not sure if it is me or just a bad day fishing. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted September 3, 2012 Super User Posted September 3, 2012 I think you're taking the wrong approach. You're not studying for finals, you're going fishing. Take your rods and gear and have fun. Unless you have inside information on what's been hot lately, then experiment and try different techniques. You can almost never go wrong with a sotf plastic of some sort between purple and black, a 3-6' depth crank bait in shad to chartreuse color, Quote
buzzfrog Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 I know you are right, but this has been the worst season ever for me, I am so tired of catching them out of ponds, hell as you said just gonna go out and beat some docks.. I am about 80% over the dock talk. i have watch 4 tourney weigh in's 1st weigh in was 5 lbs for winner and the biggest so far I have seen was 13.. even though that is out of sight out of mind, somewhere in my subconscious it is there. lol just going to beat some laydown till i end up catching some rock bass.. not sure what they are really called, the are orange and green fish. have mouths like bass Quote
