    My slump finally ended today- nothing great, just landed a couple of 2-3 pounders but- it's been months since I've caught anything. Everything has been flooded and we finally got a break from all the rain, everything is about back to normal- still a bit stained and up but, not horribly. Had to fish a wacky rig- for a long time- but I caught a couple so, I'm not complaining. Now to see if I can do it again in the morning.
    in fact the last time I caught anything I was trying a technique I learned from you- fishing a fluke out deep with a spinning setup.

      @@BassGeek Man- had a great day- sort of. I caught a few that went maybe 2-3 pounds on a jig bite but- I hooked into a real monster- like 7-9 pounds- and lost her at the bank. She bit right at my feet and because I had so little line out she was able to take all the slack before I could even set the hook- then drag starts dumping out of my reel and I fought her back to the bank but- she got into some tree roots and managed to find the leverage to throw my jig. My pb is 5lbs 10 oz and I know she was about twice that large. Going back tomorrow- and everyday after that- until I get her. It's a spillway so she doesn't have many places to go, I think she'll stay in that area probably. Lots of bait there and gar- which means there are lots of bass usually.

    Set that hook Rogers... dang!! U are fishing deep tho. I throw the Alpha and cant believe the bigguns I land with those little hooks. That's about as fun as finesse gets I think, castin and reelin. Side note: i bought all the Boss stuff to start making my own jigs and I enjoy it. After about a 3hr dry spell today I downsized to a little 3/8 structure jig with an eerie darter trailer and started stroking it. 3rd cast hit like a truck and weighed in at exactly 5.00lbs. A 5lb bass is always a treat but on a jig I made is really cool!! That lake is gorgeous! Your gonna start winning some UA-cam cinematography awards.

    Since I introduced Spybaiting literally 10 years ago some of our biggest fish came from 30 ft . You are doing a great job. The spin bait 72 is a great bait for deep presentation. I have several models : Spinbait 60, Spinbait 60 grade A, Spinbait 62 (I class version), Spinbait 72 I class version, Spinbait 80 , and 80 Gfix , Spinbait 90 and Spinbait 100.

      Bank fishing. Try a stick bait, Texas rigged or wacky rigged. These will usually produce a fish. Throw and let it sit for 15-30seconds. Raise the tip of the rod about 1” then lower it letting the lure fall back down. Let sit again. Rinse, repeat. Keep slack out of your line. When you feel a big bump or the line takes off hold the rod high while reeling in. Best of luck!

      I like to match the hatch as much as possible. I use the 90 most and the 80 second most. The 3 Duo’s are 80, 90, and 100 they are each a little bigger than the next and sink a little faster. Clear water I go to the ghost minnow in that ultra clear water is the stuff. I keep the others simple. Bone, and something with chartreuse and purple for smallies
