cure for spawning Bass

[ahassell]

Ok guys i am going to let you in on a trick I learned it works every time .

Do any of you rember Casitic Baits they have a pearch that is all most the size of your hand and it looks so real soft body hard head . it is a crank bait however i have not had any luck swiming it because when you stop it it floats .

take a large sinker 1.5 oz big egg sinker and a caroilina keeper and rig it up like a C/R put the keeper about 4 inches ahead of the bait . now cast past the fish and swim it close to the nest and stop . let the sinker go to the bottom keep a tight line and slowy pull the bait it will nose down and head for the bottom . stop and let it rise repeate

have you ever seen a Pearch attach a nest they swim up drop there head and dart into the nest .

first the male will come up and smash the side of it trying to drive it off when he cant the large female will hit it here is where i lose most of them i get excitded and somtimes try to set the hook to early because she hits it hard but doesnt grab it you have to hold here and wait till she opens her mouth and trys to move it but you have to keep up the drating motion or they think they killed it .

I saw this done on "A Day on the Lake" one weekend. Can't remember exactly who it was that done it, but he was pulling out some huge females right off the beds.

I think I saw that tip in a Midwest Outdoors issue a few years ago. I tried it dozens of times (with bluegill patterned lures, since we have few perch left) and it has never worked for me. The waters I fish are really clear, I think that hard baits are too unnatural for the water clarity.

my friend does a similar thing with a mattlures bluegill, except it sinks, sso no weight needed
