Question 2 the senko

[bamabassman]

who is what you call a rookie?

[Wishing2BFishing]

I am compelled to give my 2 cents . . . my answer is the Rapala DT (shad pattern). Not because the bait will necessarily catch the fish. Just cause' I love crankbaits so much, especially the DTs.

1. Minnow
2. Wild Shiner

1. I would probably start with the spinner from the point towards the shoreline... and then from the right side of the picture (appears the wind is pushing towards shore) I would cast outward. If nothing happened that way, switch over to the crankbait, again from both directions.... and if nothing still again, my trusty senko..... and if still nothing.. then the C-rig at the drop-off. If still nothing, move on. lol

2. Yuck, always hated river fishing. Currents mess with me. But I think in this instance I would start with the popper as close to the logs as I could get. Then ofcourse, if that doesn't elicit any action, switch to the senko.

[jig fisherman]

#1: I would use the spinnerbait, the fish would be found suspended over the cover
#2: crankbait, twitched a lot


So what are the correct answers?

[BassAddict]

I won't give an answer but I know what I would use in the river scenerio! That's my kind of fishing!

the last 2 bassmaster classics on high rock-92,98- either were won or a second place finish came from that wad of flood trash..

answers are
weightless senko off the boulder
and the wooley hawgtail texas rigged with a 3/8 oz weight

hey zook would that happen to be a stein hanging off the tip of that rod ?
1st pic I would start near the rock with the senko , if nothing came off that then the crank , and I don't get to do much river fishing .

1. carolina
2. spinnerbait, casted to the left so it flows down stream with the current bangin it up against as much wood as possible.

[Cranebird]

Why haven't you got a jig tied on ?


I would use a lucky craft LV500 and then try a Lucky craft LVR D-15 and then a Megabass live X leviathon.

If all else fails , use a sand minnow, bass love them. Ivan

Dang, I came too late to this party as I usually do.

I would have picked the senko for scenario one on the three sides of the boulder that faced toward the deeper water. Although I have only fished from a bass boat once, gut feeling says this is a solid first choice.

Scenario 2, a spinnerbait. Gotta stop being a spinnerbait virgin some time soon.
