bgaviator Posted May 16, 2021 Posted May 16, 2021 Caught two small largemouth bass in 4 hours today. Both caught using a pumpkin green Yum Dinger weightless Texas rig. The first spot I went fishing I could see all kinds of fish flipping out of the water. I would put my cast right where they were and nothing would bite. Is there a particular technique or lure I should be using when I see this happening? second spot is where I caught my first bass on the Yum Dinger. Eventually moved on to my third spot on the lake. Noticed hundreds of Shad schooling near the shore. Pretty cool sight. I ended up catching my second bass on another Yum Dinger. He had another small fish in his mouth! I thought maybe with all the Shad swimming around I should try a fluke for the first time. I tried a few different retrieves. Twitch twitch pause. Quick jerks up with the rod. Slowly just swimming it back to me. Nothing was taking my fluke. The bass fishing app I have suggested a fluke for this season and today’s conditions, so I’m a little bummed it didn’t catch anything on the fluke. But at least I got something today! 2 Quote

Actually the Yum Dinger was pumpkin green that I caught both bass on. I tried using a silver fluke when I tried that technique Quote
