Super User Muddy Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Hey Fellas; What baits do you always have rigged when you go out? Does not have to be a specific brand, but type of bait. I usually have 5 rigs Spinning with a Rapala #11 or a smaller wacky rigged worm The 4 Baitcasters: 5 inch Trick Stick Crank 2 types of jig heads and trailers in mid summer this switches up from a crank to topwater plugs at night and one jig rod gets a l spinnerbait and sometimes a frog Shore Fishing; I have an old metal single drawer OLDTOWN tackle box, with a good pond assortment One rod and reel, mostly the spinning rig Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Well, this is an ever changing thing for me, but right now I would say: Casting: Swimbait light jig Spinnerbait Buzzbait Spinning: Wacky Trick Stick TX Trick Stick Split Shot/Slider Quote
Super User Muddy Posted September 18, 2008 Author Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Yeah Once I get some debt straightend out i am working with 4 Bizzle's advice and next season will bring a swim bait outfit in the spring Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Assuming I am in a boat and fishing for green fish: Fat Ika 1/2 oz Micro Munch Tackle jig/ GYCB Flappin' Hog or NetBaits Baby Paca Craw Lucky Craft Pointer 100 or 128 (baby bass) 3/8 oz Cavitron Buzzbait (early), black on black 5/5 oz XCalibur Xr50 Rattle Bait (blue & silver w/ orange belly) http://www.***.com/descpageXCALLPSCRNK-XCRB.html For brown fish: Mostly a split shot rig and live bait! LC Pointer GYCB Fat Ika, Kreature or 5" Single Tail Grub From the bank: I only carry one rod, an assortment of soft plastic and jigs. If I fish hard baits, usually just one "choice of the day" 8-) Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 I have four rods, and this is what I have been using for the last three weeks: Megabass Griffon Crankbait Green back/orange belly clear sides LC RC1.5 Blue back/chartreuse Crank Terminator Green White Spinnerbait with two colorado blades silver and gold Something either T-rigged or Weightless (10' Culprit Junebug Worm, Bass Assassin/Charm Assassin straight worm, Sweet Beaver, or an Ika.) I've been doing very well the last month, better than I have ever done before... I think it's a combo of the season, and a few things I've been working on coming together. Quote
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Right now, it's all about shallow crankbaits, jerkbaits, lipless crankbaits, and spinnerbaits. Falcon Quote

Super User fishinfiend Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 I usually carry 4 rods, so this is what I usually bring: -Weighless t-rig trick stick -Shakey head or jig -frog or spook -crank Quote

rondef Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Right now: jig and trailer spinnerbaits shallow crankbaits Rage Tail anacondas, toads and shad Quote
EastTexasBassin Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 On my spinning rod I usually have a small shakey head with a roboworm or a tiny trap. I usually bring 4 baitcasters 1. weightless setup for sinkos and ikas 2. t-rig setup for flappin hogs, kreatures, and brush hogs 3. A 'heavy cover' setup (braid) with a 3/8 jig and a flappin hog trailer 4. A Lake Fork Tackle magic shad swimbait on a chatterbait head. (not really a numbers bait, but it gets big fish) This is always what I start with, and if need be I'll change it up. Quote
bigfruits Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 depending on lake or river im fishing but this is the usual: 5/16oz skirted jig with small craw trailer small shallow crankbait (usually firetiger) 1/2oz spinner (white) 5 or 6 inch senko (watermelon or pumpkin) / fat ika (same colors) shaky head with 4-6 inch worm other rod usually has grub or tube id love to have a swimbait rod but i think it may be a waste of time in northern VA. please tell me if im wrong Quote
Big-O Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 Uuuhhhhh........sorry Muddy, was that question for me too??? ;D Big O Quote
Super User J Francho Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Spinnerbait. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 I was just out last night packing for this weekend's trip. I can't take everything so I try to get it down to a minimum. ;D ;D One rod will have a 5/0 EWG hook tied on for Senkos and Ikas. One for Flukes, switch to tubes if the shallow bite isn't there. One with spinnerbait, switch to crankbait if needed. One with a Shake2 head, for hula grubs, brush hogs and bacon rinds. One for toads, switch to jig/trailer if the toad bite ain't happening. One T-rig, first choice of bait a GYCB Big Kahuna Cuttail worm. One with an Ike's Spike jighead and 3X worm. Spinning gear didn't make the cut for this trip. Quote

Super User Muddy Posted September 18, 2008 Author Super User Posted September 18, 2008 Geez Wayne: I have a 14 ft tin boat, if I put that many rods in there would be no room for me ;D Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 My jon boat is 12'. I carry more than those when I use my bassboat. I have 52 rod/reel combos plus some extra reels, so I have an adequate selection for various presentations. Changing lures while fishing takes too much time, if the lure is not in the water, the chances of catching is slim, LOL Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted September 18, 2008 Super User Posted September 18, 2008 1st rod - soft jerkbait or soft stick of some type 2nd rod - shallow - medium diving crank, or a spinnerbait 3rd rod - popper or buzzbait Quote
