Default Something you my wanna do next time you're worming.

So yesterday I was fishing, and with the cold temps the last week or so, I decided that it would be best if I did some worming. Fist I started off with the standard texas rig with a black/red fleck worm, 2/0 hook, 3/16 oz bullet weight with a sink stopper.

I fished that rig about a half hour with no fish, but I was getting what I though to do fish just nugging the bait, not really eating it. So rather than changing completely, I took a little read bead, and put it right above the bullet weight and, with the sinker stopper (red), about a half inch above the bead. Fist cast, I shook the rod tip a little to get the bead to clack, BAM! started catching fish! To check if it was really the bead catching the fish, I took it off and started fishing, no fish! I put it back on, more fish!

~~~~~~~

Lesson learned! When the fish are nugging the bait, they're telling you you're doing on the right track, but not 100%. So try thing out side the box and make supple changed to you presentation, rather than changing it completely (like my case, rather than changing to a spinnerbait, I just added a bead).
