What should i do?

treehugger8 · 06-25-06, 12:51 PM

The water temp is about 80. The weeds are getting really thick. The only thing working is scum frogs. Thats only the small ones tho. what should i use to catch the bigger ones and where should i fish at??

if you are catching small bass shallow pull off the bank go deeper for the bigger fish..

what lure should i use?

Tnbasser · 06-25-06, 03:03 PM

Jig and pig. the smallest you can get away with.Spread the weed guard some to increase weedlessness.

JB · 06-25-06, 08:26 PM

throw out in any open water you can find with a mann's minus one,
it will avoid most weeds

Rebbasser · 06-25-06, 08:28 PM

Or a soft stickbait like a Tiki Stick or Yum Dinger. Fish it out away from the weeds in deeper water-I let it sink to the bottom before I start the retrieve. I'd either rig it weedless or wacky. If rigging it wacky I take a couple of small finishing nails and stick one in each end to help it sink faster.

JB, she sure looks better without the face paint

ok i caught a monster tonight on a frog. thats the only bait getting results. It rained alot and cold front came in. During rain, caught a ton of fish. Remember this is a large pond. Its got alot of open water but the banks are covered obout 20' in some spots. Depest part is 22'

bassintom · 06-26-06, 05:06 PM

you got me confused..that's easy to do.........you ask what to use..nobody suggested a frog.so you ignore the suggestions and throw a frog.and catch a monster???????????????
Since you were catching them already you could have avoided wasting anyones time asking for info you weren't going to use anyway.and see,i even wasted my time posting this.
