The Havoc Pit Boss Is........

so i ended up hitting a pond like i mentioned earlier in this thread. the bass loved the pit boss. they were tearing them up. i missed a couple hooksets early with them, then i slowed down a bit before setting the hook and started catching. i like this bait...

Okay, so. My lakes are full of bluegill and bluegill-eating bass. Let's say I take a Pit Boss and give it a little chartreuse JJ's on the tail. How would I fish this? Swim it, hop it, something I'm not thinking of? I'm shorebound and making long casts would be my preference.

In my experience... however you want. To put this better however the fish want it. I've been fishing one day where they'll just hammer a bait when it's dragged and hopped but on the next day they'll only eat it if you swim it, yet both days have the same conditions.. Lately I've been big on using a keel weighted ewg and slowly swimming them or even darting them like a fluke, it's a very weedless technique. I only use the weighted hook because of how slowly they sink. I don't know how clear the water is in your lake but if I'm at a spot where they're feeding on gills and there's clear water I like to use a watermelon lure with a chartreuse tail, looks  just like a gill in the water. I really recommend this with any soft plastic jerkbaits. By the way I'm a bank fishermen my self.

Well, sounds like I'm going to pick up a pack of Junebug and a pack of Green Pumpkin or Melon-something. The monkey needs a walk anyway.
