That one bait/rig that you don't use but everyone else does

I use crankbaits ( all sizes and depths,), and spinnerbaits (all sizes and colors, and fish them from top to bottom fast or slow), the majority of the time.  Football and swim jigs occasionally.   Top water poppers, spooks, buzz baits, and prop baits mostly in the morning.  I started using A rig and chatter bait this year, limited success so far.  Jerk baits, suspending and floating.  Inline #3 inline spinner when bite is tough.  I do own and fish a variety of soft plastics but catch 95% of my bass on hard baits.  Strong winds, zero patience and lack of skill are the big reasons I don't use plastics often.  Working a crankbait through flooded trees, with nets hanging from the branches can get frustrating and expensive, but covers water fast, works in strong winds, and catches big bass.  

     

       

We throw what we have confidence.

 

Great information. Thanks for sharing.

 

Now post some pics of those big Mexican bass everyone catches when they go south of the boarder.

Dropshot. It doesn't look fun to me.

Spoons.  I've never caught a fish on one.

I had only caught flounder on them. Then I saw a thread on here about putting a trailer on one and drqgging over the lilies. I caught several first time I tried it.

A jig is a jig- you can fish them 10 different ways but it's the same lure!

I don't use a hammer, except only for nails. ?
