Great vid Glen.  I fish at  least 5 days a week from the shore and one day in the boat.  I do exactly what you said with regards to the rod, reel, line. and sometimes the bait.  The big difference is that my lakes are surrounded with weed fields, like hydrilla, and pads.  I usually have to retrieve through at least 20 yards of thick weeds after the big drop-off.  It makes Texas rigged plastics the logical choice.  Floro line really helps since we have limestone walls that just destroys braid.  The floro also helps with the fall of the bait using light weights.  I often use a 1/32 because heavier weight get caught up more on the jagged rock ledges.  These are all man made lakes much like a quarry in other parts of the country.  Besides creature baits, I also use U-Vibes, Zoom Super flukes, and of course senkos.

Great vid as always, we are for the most part in total agreement with our bank fishing techniques, the big difference is I have to watch for snakes, and the occasional gator in the grass, they are everywhere!

Great video Glenn. Odd, I’ll throw a Senko weightless but I never think of throwing a craw or beaver weightless so I tried it this evening and caught a couple. They wanted a beaver on the move, as you mentioned, like a jerk bait. Winner of the evening was with dragging a T-Rig rage craw with a 3/8 weight.
