Fishfanatic93 Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 I live in Mesa, Arizona. I fish the salt river mostly and me and my dad have been in a major slump for atleast the last month! we've tried everything. I Watch all kinds of instructional videos and nothing Is giving me the edge up on the fish. ive sight fished a couple beds and danced worms right in front of them and not the slightest bit interested. It is really starting to bum me out! And its not just me not many people are catching from what I gather. Any tips would be welcome! 1 Quote
loudcherokee Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 Have you tried a Ned Rig or a wacky rigged senko? Give these a try and remember to fish them S L O W. LC 1 Quote

Super User Nitrofreak Posted June 12, 2016 Super User Posted June 12, 2016 I don't know if you guys out west have had the same strange weather patterns that we have had here on the east coast but it has had a significant impact on the bite, I like what loudcherokee had to say about fishing S L O W, if you are finding them on beds try casting up behind the beds and working your bait close to the beds and once you have their attention don't do anything but twitch your line, enough to give the bait a small amount of action but not enough to move it, in essence your aggravating the fish to elicit a strike.

josh colley Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 usually western lakes are clear so maybe they see you before you think they do. try long casts and maybe some reaction baits so they dont have time to think about it Quote
Super User burrows Posted June 20, 2016 Super User Posted June 20, 2016 Throw a square bill till your arm falls off your slump will be over soon enuf, I like using rc series 3 or a bomber square A. Quote
