I was jerking my little 4" dinger

[bothomas]

Fished a pond near my house last night that I have not fished in about a year. I used to catch bass any eve. with lizards. Last night I could not buy a bite on a lizard so I tied on a 4" yum dinger ( black and blue ) and first cast one nailed it as soon as it hit the water. On my second cast, once the bait was next to shore, I jerked it a couple of times to get some grass off of it and noticed it had a nice action, looks like a dying shad. Starting fishing it like a jerk bait and caught over 20 fish! Never thought to try it before, sometimes you just find something they have never seen. And they could not stand that stick worm getting jerked past em.......By the way, I had fished lizards and worms for about 1/2 hour or more with no bites and there are only 3 places with enough room to cast that I was walking back and forth between.
