CTBassin860 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Is there a certain technique you plan to focus on this season?? I plan to work on topwater other than frogs,pitching and I have vowed to fish worms more. 1 Quote
Super User whitwolf Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 Not a technique but I plan to fish a lot more. If I had to pick one Item to work on It would be learning all I can about eraly jerkbait fishing. I have seen this work with great success and have never really given it a fair shot. Quote
Alan Reed Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I plan on fishing jigs. This last year I used a Texas Rig a lot. I plan to do more tournaments this year so I the goal is to attach bigger with not just number by switching to using jigs. 1 Quote

LuckyHandsINC. Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Nothing new I'm focusing on just want to get back to a few things I've abandoned over the years. Number one being the spinnerbait. It was once one of my favorite baits. Now I can't even remember the last time I fished it. Quote

Number one being the spinnerbait. It was once one of my favorite baits. Now I can't even remember the last time I fished it. I had so much success with spinnerbaits to start the season last year I threw nothing else for probably my first four or five outings. Just was no reason to get off of spinnerbaits. As for the original question, this year I want to put an emphasis on fishing bigger swimbaits. I had the same plan last year but was too impatient and would abandon them for other proven baits after a short time. Hopefully I'll do better this year. Quote
CTBassin860 Posted January 8, 2017 Author Posted January 8, 2017 Soft plastic swimbaits is one If my others. Quote
Todd2 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I'm on a personal mission to see how many fish I can catch on a 5 inch grub on 1/4 oz flat eye ball head....wish me luck. 1 Quote
Fun4Me Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I'm going to concentrate more on crank baits, plus delve into bigger swim baits and glide baits. Quote
Super User N Florida Mike Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 I think I'm going back to fishing soft plastics mostly this year.I messed around with different techniques a lot this year and didn't catch many those ways.Moving baits such as cranks and spinnerbaits just don't seem to work much where I fish. I do plan to frog fish more,and focus some on top water. And I can always fall back on live bait! Quote
Super User MassYak85 Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 I plan to devote some serious time to swimbaits this year. I also want to get back to worm fishing more this year. The last two seasons I was learning a lot of new techniques to broaden my arsenal. Next year I want to take what I now have built up and hone my strategy a little more. Quote
MichiganBass80 Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 Soft plastic swimbaits, jigs, and pitching and flipping things like rodents or rage bugs Quote
Super User scaleface Posted January 9, 2017 Super User Posted January 9, 2017 I plan to improve my deep water structure fishing but I strive to do do that every year . I spend lots of time studying my sonar . Its captivating . I would like to decipher fish signals better . Active fish from inactive and so on . Quote
Super User gulfcaptain Posted January 9, 2017 Super User Posted January 9, 2017 Learning to fish deep, learning deep clear lakes better where shallow is well less then 20ft and deep is like 50+ft. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted January 9, 2017 Super User Posted January 9, 2017 Ned and Neko rigs will be experimented with for me when the bite gets tough this coming season instead of just relying on drop shotting, flick shake, and shaky heads. 1 Quote
"hamma" Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 I bought a dropshot rod last spring and didnt get to use it at all. So im hoping I can "break it in" this year.,... as well as,.. soft plastic swimbaits, I bought a plano 3700 full of them last year and will try to implement them in their as well. Quote
kbeeb374 Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 I will be focusing on jerkbaits this year as well as trying to learn how to jig fish. I have seen many good fish taken on a jerkbait but have only tried/caught a few. I am all stocked up and ready to fish as soon as the ice breaks!! Quote
Super User Spankey Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 Fluke and jerkbait fishing I have to get back into the mix some more this season. Just got overwhelmed with other things. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 I don't believe there is such a thing as technique Quote
hunterPRO1 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 id like to get some more experience with dropshots but the fish want what they want Quote
AC870 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I'm gonna try to catch some fish on a jig and a Carolina rig. Quote
Super User Gundog Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 I was really thinking about trying to maybe give that Ned thing a chance if I can remember to do it. But probably not. Quote
