bigtimfish Posted July 11, 2010 Posted July 11, 2010 Use a Manns dragin worm as a spinnerbait trailer. Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted July 11, 2010 Super User Posted July 11, 2010 what is so sercet about any of the lures you all talked about. you can buy all of them in a store throughout the us. Just my opinion. You definately are missing the point here aren't you ? Quote
Bass_Akwards Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Bass Pro Shops 7.5 inch Tournament series Watermellon W/bl flake Stick O Worms. The secret is I get an exacto knife and make a 3 inch slice down the long way of the tail. Basically cutting the tail into two sections This way you get two "tails" instead of one hanging off the worm. Then, I take the exacto knife and cut each of the two "tails" right down the middle the long way. Now I have 4 "tails" about 3 inches long that wisp and wiggle around in the water as it moves. Small twitches and short drags, mixed with longer pauses has been a great presentation for big bass. I caught a 6 pound 3 oz LMB on one in May. Quote

wvbucketmouth Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 Banjo Minnows and Ivory Soap. ;D Just kiddin, X-Raps in every size and color have been doing well for me. Quote
Rayraff Posted July 12, 2010 Posted July 12, 2010 In past week this has quickly become my favorite. It's a MegaStrike Shak-E2 head with a skirt and a June Bug floating trick worm. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted July 13, 2010 Super User Posted July 13, 2010 Big-O, you've let the cat out of the bag. My #1 bait in 2009 was a Space Monkey on a Shakey2 jighead, rigged like a grub with the hook exposed. Been doing the same thing this year with the Rage Shad, Smokin Rooster and the Eeliminator. Deadly! The real secret rig, if you can call any rig a secret; a GYCB Swim Senko on a Fin-Tech Skip Jighead. I've been fishing more jighead/plastics combinations than any other rig for the last two years. My best jigheads, in no particular order: Shakey2 Fin-Tech Titleshot Fin-Tech Skip Jig Tru Tungsten Iaconelli jigheads Quote
Bass Junkie Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Lucky Craft Rick Clunn Wake Action 3.5 in Copper Green Shad. The secret I've been using with it is walking it like a spook, only slightly sub-surface. Hard to explain, ya gotta see it. Just walk it like a spook, and the two halves click together, really calling the fish up. I have caught an 18" Smallmouth and Largemouth up to 6.5 pounds over the last two trips throwing this lure. But its not just a big bass bait. I've had 10" Smallmouth cream this thing Quote
Senkoman12 Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 strike king zero purple haze wacky or texas rigged Quote
mrbassky Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 One that is a secret kinda. Mostly only know in its region. I have been doing well on a D-Bait in the classic foil black back color. I have also been catching lots of fish on a floating evergreen jerkbait. Two baits that I am the only one throwing on my lake. Quote
mrbassky Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 One other bait thats a secret is the Cotton Cordell CC shad. Its available everywhere but isnt talked about much. Its got some downsides its light and hard to cast, its hard to tune right and some never seem to run straight. But it catches fish. Quote
rboat Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 This may be a bit of ignorance on my part, but what is a D bait? Quote
mrbassky Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 This may be a bit of ignorance on my part, but what is a D bait? Its best to call and see what colors he has available or you may be waiting until he gets the baits done. But the baits are worth the wait. http://www.dbaits.com/ Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted July 14, 2010 Author Super User Posted July 14, 2010 One more suggestion: Swarming Hornet with a 3 1/2" LFT Live Magic Shad. Cast and let the lure fall to the bottom. Retrieve by reeling fast, then allowing the lure to sink on slack line. The blade lifts the bait, DO NOT lift it with your rod. The strike is always on the fall and you may not feel it. When you begin to reel, if you detect ANYTHING, set the hook! 8-) Quote
lightsout Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Use a Manns dragin worm as a spinnerbait trailer. X2 Also makes a great finesse jig trailer 8-) Quote
