ratherbfishin1 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Would a wacky rig senko count? 2 Quote
Super User QUAKEnSHAKE Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 2.8" Keitech swing impact fat with 1/8 jighead. If smaller is wanted go to 2" s-i-f with 1/32 jighead. 1 Quote

Dens228 Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 I would say unweighted plastics are about as finesse as I go........wacky, t-rig, etc........either worms, senkos, or rage craw types. Quote
RealtreeByGod Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Ned Rig and weightless flukes account for like 80% of my bass. I suck at power fishing. Quote
Dorado Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Weightless trick worm Bitsy Tubes on 1/8oz tube jigs Ned Rig Wacky Rig GP w/ Black Flake Senko Roadrunners paired with Sassy Shad or Grubs I could finesse fish for bass the rest of my life with those top 5 baits and be one happy angler Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 21, 2019 Global Moderator Posted January 21, 2019 The one that's working is my favorite. A wacky rig, ned rig, shakyhead, or micro jig are all fun but I don't think one is my favorite. 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 Around vegetation I like a 4" or 6" plastic worm weighted with a 1/16 or 1/8 ounce weight. If there is no vegetation around I like a speed craw weighted the same way. 1 Quote

Like Bluebasser86 said, I don't consider any a favorite but the micro jig is the one I like to use most. 1 Quote

Super User scaleface Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 I dont do finesse very well , nor the big stuff . I sort of stick in the middle . I guess if you define finesse as going light , my most productive techniques are small spinnerbaits , and crankbaits . Quote
Super User Catt Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 Depends on the body of water ? Our Southwest Louisiana marshes average 2-4' maximum depth, while on Toledo Bend's main lake 15' is shallow. In the marshes I'll throw Texas Rigs from weightless to 1/8 oz, plastics maybe straight tail worms, Baby Brush Hogs, Ultra Vibe Speed Worms & Speed Craw. Lakes/Reservoirs; Wacky Rigs, Texas Rigs worm with a nail in the tail, Texas Rigs 1/16-1/8 oz, 1/8 oz buzzbaits, & small cranks, & jerkbaits (soft or hard). 2 Quote

Catt, I like to be versatile too, but the Texas rig is hard to beat for me. I'm dealing with milfoil weeds, and it comes through cover better than any baits I've tried. This year I'm bringing back the Beetle Spin. A smaller spinner can work well too. As you know milfoil is tough to fish. But, that's where the bass are 1 Quote
CrankFate Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Balsa crank on the surface. Skipped in or zig zagged. Quote

FCPhil Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Weightless stickworm. If you don’t count that as fitness try the Berkley Flat Dawg, it is an excellent stickbait with a flattened shape that gives it a lot of action. It nearly as long as other stickbaits but it is a noticeably smaller lure overall. Also, does a popper count as finesse? It’s my favorite “finesse bait” because I love topwater. 1 Quote
