What's your least favorite technique?

[chs773]

crank baits but i guess thats because i never use them

[Ky_Lake_Dude]

Drop Shot.

[Skeeter1]

For me its a spinnerbait. Dont know why just cant seem to catch fish on one

Interesting results so far. Unless I've miscounted, the winners, if that's the correct term are;

C-rig 14 votes

Drop shot 12 votes

and a suprising 11 votes for cranks and jerks. ( I lumped them together as hardbaits)

Spoons and senkos tied for 4th with 4 votes each

finesse got mentioned three times

Spinnerbaits, flippin and plastics in general got two

Jigs, T-rigs and live bait each got a vote

Shows what a diverse bunch we are.

Dragging a worm, whether T rigged or C rigged.  Boring

[hi_steel_basser]

The worst thing about a C-rig is tying it up, spending 2-3 minutes getting everything just so, Then casting it out and immediately hanging up in the only stump in the whole dan lake.  :-/Other than that, it is a very productive technique. I also don't like deep-diving cranks, as I have yet to catch a fish on one in my endless 20 minutes of fishing them. I'll switch to something that I know is pounding the bottom, like a C-rig. To clarify, I won't throw a crankbait in more than 10-15 feet of water. I'll throw a jerkbait anywhere, if the water is clear, and I won't throw a spinnerbait except in gnarly wood that I intend to pitch and flip later.   But for right now, the ultimate dont-go-to rig for me is the drop shot.

I hate the c-rig because it is so extreemly strange and has a wierd cast.

[Fisher of Men]

Agreed with alot of you.  The c-rig is just something I've never had the patience to stick with.  I guess another least favorite would be jig fishing, although I know it is productive.  I've just tried it in some really slow times of the year and lost patience.  Does anyone think I may have a problem with patience? Could it be me. . . never!! ;D

As always (this time of year), these are two of a few things I would like to improve upon during the new year.  I'm also going to try and use jerk baits more.  I've really got into a spinnerbait and soft plastic mode the last couple of years.  

[mudcatwilly]

I hate dropshotting.  It is a lot like bait fishing...boring.

[tugabasser]

Deep diving crankbaits. You just cast and reel it in...no challenge. And vertical drop-shot (it's difficult to control your tube and keep the rig where it«s supposed to be  )
