Downsizing

I like "big", not small.

Reminds me of perch jerking ;)

Any thing to do with fishing slow , no patience.

Ya' know, it's funny, being the type A guy that I am, it's tough for me to fish slow.... yet most of the time, if I fish fast, I feel like I'm totally wasting my time. I force myself to fish slow, much like I force myself to fish finnesse. I'll do whatever it takes.

Kind of like weight lifting... no pain, no gain :)

Skeet, what are you talking about ? Senko's are great ! It gives the crowds something to do, while I'm going the other way ;) I've yet to have ever thrown a Senko in my life. I might someday...... but everybody else will have to stop throwing them first ;)

Carolina rigs. I'd rather stick a fork in my eye than fish this. I'll do it if I must, but it usually means I'm lost.

X2. I'm also not a fan of vertical jigging spoons or deep cranking, just never had much luck doing either.

Veritacal Jigging and C-Rigs...

And I use to LOVE senkos, but now I just get bored with them...but they still catch fish.

Live bait fishing and all the sitting that goes with it.

I just won't throw a swimbait, and I could care less about ever throwing one. Swimbait, schmimbait. Give me a crankbait any day.

A close second is a C-rig.  Maybe I'm just too lazy to rig the whole darn thing.

Me too - lots of knots, leader material, and little pieces of hardware... ;D

Carolina rig, no confidence I have never caught a bass and have been bit off 3 times by pike and never felt a thing just pulled it out of the water and my leader was was cut in half.

It's weird, but if you stick me in a car in any sort of traffic, whether I'm in a hurry or not, I inevitably get completely impatient and want to stab myself in the ear with a pen. You put me in a store or airport or wherever where there's ANY sort of a line I have to stand in, and just watch me start getting irritated and annoyed and antsy. Same with riding in airplanes or most other spots where I need to be patient.

But you put a fishing rod in my hand, and I can literally huck a Senko (or whatever finesse lure) 50 yards and CRAWL it back to shore or the boat. I'm talkin' 3-5 minute retrieves and even longer if need be. I just LOVE getting lulled to sleep after a couple Senko casts, feeling zen like and peaceful and then out of absolutely nowhere 60 seconds into a quiet retrieve you feel that "TICK TICK" on the line. How can anyone not just LOVE that adrenaline rush on the fist "tick" Then the rush gets even BETTER as the line starts moving and you know you have to start reeling in that slack line in order to stick that fish but good. Then the rush gets even better still as you drop that rod tip and then pull back hard, setting that hook and buttoning that sucker. WHAT A FEELING!! You get 3 seperate rushes on one cast! A free buzz x3!!!!!!!!

Hmm...

Seems kinda silly to be dissing a bait that has

probably won more amateur tournaments in the

last ten years than all other lures combined. If

there has ever been a MAGIC bait, it's the Senko.

I don't recall a professional tournament that has been won using a senko.

They are good baits but they are boring to fish. I feel that if they are hitting a senko I can catch them on other things that I have confidence it. I can't count how many times my partner started waxing them on a senko and I would just pull out a 1/4 oz jig with a Rage Chunk and catch more weight than him out of the same school of fish. To each their own.

Dropshot. I wash my socks in the lake and hang them on my fishing line and watch them dry. It's just as exciting.
