Super User bigbill Posted July 19, 2015 Super User Posted July 19, 2015 Rebel BIGCLAW CRAWFISH dives to 10 feet. I'm fishing 9'/10' of water. I spray it with craw scent and throw it out as far as I can in the open channel along side the weedline. Now i do a sweep back with the rod so it dives to 10'. Once it reaches bottom I reel it slow. Just fast enough so it bumps the bottom. On rivers I let it float into the deeper pools around the rocks. I let the current take it over and around the rocks. Even a shallow river with pools can produce 3lb bass. I work the spinflys the same way on rivers too. 1 Quote

Super User RoLo Posted July 19, 2015 Super User Posted July 19, 2015 Your most successful lure is the lure that spends the most time on the end of your line.To put it differently, your most successful lure is the lure you made your favorite. My most successful lure for good-sized bass is a "Gambler Big-EZ" in 'Not So Sexy'. My 2nd most successful good fish lure is a "Gambler Big-EZ" in 'Forty Niner'. I almost never catch a bass on a Senko; because I almost never fish a Senko Roger Quote
Super User bigbill Posted July 19, 2015 Super User Posted July 19, 2015 Ok I'll explain some stuff. Presentation senkos 1, Senkos on a c-rig, 1/8oz weight, 24" leader, weedless hook My senko presentation. Cast it out no scent. Let it fall and keep the line taunt to the rod tip. Move the rod with the line as it falls. Any slight nibble set the hook. Presentation senkos 2, Cast the c -rig out keep the line taunt and wiggle the rod tip adding a extra twitch as it falls be ready to set the hook. Lure color matters. Change colors. Quote

To put it differently, your most successful lure is the lure you made your favorite. Not really. My favorite is frogs but there are just places where they just don't work. If you can find a place the shaky head doesn't work, it's because there aren't any fish! Quote

punch Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 I fish a lot in the evening so my #1 producer this year has been the chug bug. My #2 producer is a tie between a weightless senko and a rapala DT4 1 Quote

Super User the reel ess Posted July 21, 2015 Super User Posted July 21, 2015 I fish a lot in the evening so my #1 producer this year has been the chug bug. My #2 producer is a tie between a weightless senko and a rapala DT4 I love the Chug Bug. If you don't already have one, get a Chug'n Spook or a JR. Depending on how you work it, it can be a Chug Bug or a Spook. I like to just give it short rips. It'll chug and walk. I'm trying hard to make my 2 best lures a frog and another frog. Quote

Silas Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 For the first 40 years, it was a White/Chartreuse 1/4 oz spinnerbait with willow and Colorado blade. Slayed them! Last 5 years my favs are: Squarebill crankbait.....especially the LC Rick Clunn 1.5 Stanley Ribbit Frog in Watermelon/red pearl. Love to fish it! Quote

Super User HoosierHawgs Posted July 22, 2015 Super User Posted July 22, 2015 What is it about Gambler that you Florida guys love? Just curious. Quote
zachb34 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 What is it about Gambler that you Florida guys love? Just curious.They're just a common bait here and every dicks sporting goods and local shop has them. I don't really think there's another swimbait that could replace my EZ swimmers. Some of the places here that's one of the best/only thing you can fish. I like the Burner worms but don't really care if it's Gambler or zooms version. The ugly otter is a good flipping bait but other than that I don't use anything else that's Gambler. A lot of guys you see using them on social media are on their pro staff. They sponsor a lot of college teams too. Other than that they're cheap, easy to find, and effective. 1 Quote
