Dr. Watson Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 T. Rigs and Jigs are hands down what I fish the most and enjoy the most.... Quote
Basseditor Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 When I posted earlier about weightless Senkos, that was related to the question. I've been fishing since I was barely walking. I can and have caught bass on just about every lure/tactic. Whatever the conditions call for, I'm ready. My biggest Senko bass is 8 lbs. I've caught bigger ones on 10" Powerworms and 6XDs. But when it's tough, I know the Senko or fluke can save the day. So my point is, when all else fails, do what you do best. That is your niche. You see the pros that are the best with a technique win on that technique when the time is right. They may not do as well other times. I think I'm pretty versatile, but give me a Senko when the time is right, and I'll beat many other guys at that time. I can't say that for other tactics. A Senko is not my favorite way to fish, but I'm pretty good at it. It's my niche that I worked hard to develop. 1 Quote
mjseverson24 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I love to junk fish, almost everyday I fish there is 20+ rods on deck and I like it that way. in my opinion no one lure will work best in every situation so having many different options available seems to produce the best results. if I had to pick just 1 or 2 i would say dropshots and frogs.

Super User J Francho Posted February 11, 2014 Super User Posted February 11, 2014 Submerged wood is usually my game. In tournaments, I often crank bait. I'd say I have the most time and experience with them. My favorite to fish though, will always be a jig. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted February 11, 2014 Super User Posted February 11, 2014 My very favorite part of fishing is experimenting, and any lure is welcome to my science project. I can tolerate just about any lure or technique, even an 'unweighted senko' Roger 1 Quote
BenB54 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Not so much one technique, but one or two specific covers: thick vegetation or heavy brush and boat docks!! Punching, flipping, pitching, froggin, ripping swimbaits nd swim jigs through hydrilla is just my thing. I also love skipping docks with jogs, plastics, flukes and square bills. That's my niche, that's what I enjoy most, but still fish alotnof other techniques and diffeent structure like everyone else. Hank parker once said that if u find grass, you will find bass... I just toook it and ran with it. Its paid off This fits me to a T. My home lake has tons of milfoil, tule/bulrush, water willow, spatterdock, and docks. Quote
Super User WIGuide Posted February 11, 2014 Super User Posted February 11, 2014 I prefer my niche to be whatever I can get those buggers to bite on that given day. That being said though, I absolutely love fishing frogs. There's nothing like a gigantic explosion followed by an eye crossing swing to let you know the battle is on. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 11, 2014 Super User Posted February 11, 2014 Jerkbaits are my favorite lures to fish; soft plastics are my most productive. Quote
Talonman Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Top water... Poppers and hollow body frogs are my favorite. 1 Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted February 12, 2014 Super User Posted February 12, 2014 Niche I don't know but I do know my preference. For me nothing beats sight casting, whether it's LMB or peacock, snook, tarpon or jack. Seeing that fin or water ripple and having that fish pounce on it, then running it down on foot. Quote
Fish'N Impossible Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Frogging is my niche. i will work a Frog in 45 to 90 degree water doesnt matter. me second is flipping pads and grass with creature baits. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 12, 2014 Global Moderator Posted February 12, 2014 Fishing a jig, shakyhead, or suspending jerkbait. If one of those baits are working then I'm happy. Quote
MacP Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Shallow Cranks and Jerks. Flat Raps, Shallow Shad Raps and Rogues catch me as much fish as anything and I enjoy fishing them. Quote
bartdude186 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 super fluke...when all else fails tie it on, twitch it,dead stick it, drag it, jump it out of the water, put it on a scrounger head, wacky rig it, double rig it,put it on a swim jig, whatever it takes the bass WILL eat it some way. Quote
jeremyryanwebb Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 My go-to is throwing craws or creatures on a swinging jighead. Hoppin it slow on the bottom and covering as much water as possible Havoc Pit Boss on a Chompers Swinging Jighead (5/16 oz.) Zoom ultravibe speed craws on smaller jigheads when the bite gets tough Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted February 15, 2014 Super User Posted February 15, 2014 My niche I would have to say top water baits. Mainly frogging. Fluking and walking would come a distant second. All the other techniques will follow after that. Quote
Super User lmbfisherman Posted February 15, 2014 Super User Posted February 15, 2014 My comfort zone - Spinnerbait, weightless flukes, buzzbaits and jigs. Always what I tend to to do in most situations. Although last year after forcing myself to DS more, it was one of my go to last year. Quote
