 "When All Else Fails" my fall back is a Drop Shot with either a SK Rage Craw or a SK DB Craw.

Nose hooked or on a tex-posed on thin wire ewg.

 

If this doesn't do it I go to a wacky Senko  ~ ( just Please don't tell @Darren.)

If you just want a fish on the line, it is hard to beat a 4" senko wacky rigged

When I can not get bit on ANYTHING ANYWHERE................I head to docks with a spinning rod and a 4"  yum dinger on a 1/16th oz wacky jig. More times than not, after 2 hours of this, I'll have a limit.................they may only be small keepers, but I WILL get a limit on that.

For me it's a Cut R with a 1/16  pegged weight.

Honestly this was a close 2nd. 

I use them unweighted as I only use the Magnum. They're heavy enough for the mostly shallow waters down here.

If I just need to feel a tug on the end of the line a ned rig is hard to beat. But if I just can't figure them out that day I could toss a spinnerbait for hours and hours on end and still have confidence it would eventually get me bit if I just kept hammering the right areas.

Gotta be a tube, have caught them deep, shallow, docks, cold, warm, you get the idea since I started bass fishing. Other baits have come and gone for me, but the tube is always there. A very close second is a 3 to 5" grub, preferably a kalins, pretty much same deal as the tube maybe a touch less versatile.

If someone held a gun to my head and said "catch a fish, next cast or else" I'd throw a nightcrawler. Otherwise... A Texas rig plastic worm, probably a zoom u tail color appropriate to the water clarity.

Yes, yes. @A-Jay is finally warming up to throwing a wacky rig.

I can hear the winds of change blowing...

 

When all else fails... Well, if it is good enough to be the anchor
rig "when all else fails", it's good enough to be the MAIN rig!!

 

That and a drop shot!!

 

:cheer:

 

Merry C! Y'all!!

When all else fails, I tie on an inline spinner and let nature take its course.
