Keiran Beam Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 I use suspending jerkbaits. With a good pause in between small jerks. Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted June 1, 2015 Super User Posted June 1, 2015 I haven't tried wacky yet. I typically fish ponds as well. How do you fish these senkos? wacky rig or weightless t-rig, cast near cover and just let it F-A-L-L. When it hits bottom twitch it up, and let it fall again. Watch the line closely for any movement. do this a few times, if you don't get hit, cast again to a different spot. Quote
ThatZX14Fella Posted June 1, 2015 Author Posted June 1, 2015 I use suspending jerkbaits. With a good pause in between small jerks. The last bass I got down there was on a suspending jerkbait. I forgot to pick one up at Wal-Mart the other day, also forgot Senkos. The only thing I got was some flukes. Quote

BigSkyBasser Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Not sure what water and air temps are there but in later summer when the weeds get thick, the frogging bite is insane! Anyone who hasn't had a smallie or largemouth blast a frog out of the water is seriously missing out! I also like taking a really small soft plastic like a SK dreamshot or Roboworm and wacky rigging it weightless. Produces really good bites! Quote
charter21p5 Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 I went out today and tested out the Senko rig per your advice (thank you) at my pond. I couldn't keep the bass off the line. I didn't stay long enough to catch any size however rigging the senkos whacky made the difference. It was a lot of fun. I am posting a picture of one of the little dudes caught today below: 3 Quote

Also gives a better presentation for the bait when fishing for skittish bass. 2 Quote
nestor Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Weightless black "horny toad" t-rigged with size 3 or 4 wide hook that exits that back (not bottom) of the frog. Great for top water across the moss and weeds. Also 4' whacky (weightless) does the trick. I'm most confident with the Senko Watermelon Cream color even though I read all over the place that dark purple is the best... Quote
Super User the reel ess Posted June 11, 2015 Super User Posted June 11, 2015 T-rig gets hung up to much unless I just reel. Haven't caught anything with a weightless lizard. Try a Trick Worm weightless and fish it like a jerkbait with the twitch-twitch-pause retrieve. Quote
