What Lure In Your Op Is Most Effective In Weeded Areas?

[river-rat]

Everything mentioned will work, but don't ever underestimate a Johnson Silver Minnow. I've been using them for over 50 years in these types of areas and I can assure you they still work.

call me crazy, but you can fish a rodent or beaver just like a frog and have more confidence if a Bass misses your bait on a blow up....Just let the Rodent sink to the bottom.

 

I fish a senko 6-7" or swim senko most of the time for plastics when going horizontal, and if I want to get the bait a bit deeper, I may use some nail weights in a Caffeine shad fluke, or start chucking a 10-12" red shad curl tail worm, or black and blue.....I alway's have a smaller 4" worm ready to go after firing them up with larger baits which is what a huge senko walking over weeds will often do if a Monster does not swallow it.
