xxmurrxx Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 Well my fav. bank fishing spot fills with mass weeds this time of year, Wondering if there are any prime lure suggestions? There is a mix of lillys pads and (unknown) weeds. Only thing i could seem to throw is a spro frog, but it gets boring after a little. I tried a jig with a trailer and it did not turn out too good. Any suggestions? change locations? Thanks. Quote
Super User Catt Posted September 2, 2007 Super User Posted September 2, 2007 Try a light weight Texas Rigged Worm but reel it on top like a frog stopping it in openings Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted September 2, 2007 Super User Posted September 2, 2007 1/16oz mojo rig. Quote
Super User Marty Posted September 3, 2007 Super User Posted September 3, 2007 A variety of soft plastics can be tried, dropping them into holes or at the edges. Weedless topwaters are a good bet too, a category which your Spro falls into. If that's too boring you can always try a faster-moving bait, like one of the buzzing frogs/toads. Quote
Bass Hammer Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Don't give up on jigs. Some are very weedless. Like catt, I'm for t-rigged worms. Quote
basspro48 Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Or you can texas rig a ZOOM speed craw or sweet beaver with a heavy 1/2-1 1/2oz tungsten weight and punch right through the weeds with it, this is known as flipping. This is my favorite technique and I have caught some serious hawgs doing it. Give it a try, but you do need at least a Medium Heavy action rod and I would suggest 30-50lb braided line. Quote
Super User FishTank Posted September 3, 2007 Super User Posted September 3, 2007 Here are a few ideas 1. Texas rigged softplastic (Senko or Zoom Lizard) set up with either 1/4 oz or 3/8oz bullet weight. 2. Fat Ika with a 1/8oz weight 3. 1/4oz Tru-Tungsten Weed Wacker and a either a DT Hula Grub or a Zoom Finesse worm. Quote
jdw174 Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Try a Mepps Timber Doodle. If you can find one hanging around someplace in a dusty old tackle shop, an Ozark Mountain Kingfisher is super. Quote
