Need a few tips!
I wanna go fishing today, but if it's going to suck again I DONT WANT TO!!! so you guys need to help me decide what to throw!
I was fishing jigs in brush, and catching some big fish, but now they stopped hitting, and I can't catch anything bigger than a pound. Obviously im doing something wrong! Here is my weather conditions http://www.weather.com/outlook/event..._topnav_sports The water is kinda murky, and there are plenty of laydowns, and rocks, and structure, and just open area's. Any baits, or idea's i'de appreciate any help!

I've been getting mine under shady laydowns using the zoom vibra craws, or paca craws, the bass seem to have moved off the bank about 10-15 feet, in 3-5 ft deep.
I've been throwing the rogue, but they are just looking at it, but the walleyes up here are tearing the rogue up! |

Throw A Crankbait Or Spinnerbait Over Wood. Last Night They Were Out In The Middle Of The Lake On Submerged Wood.

do you know your water temp? Has a cold front just moved through? seen any beds? There could be a lot of reasons the fish have moved. I would start with a spinnerbait to try and find some fish..get some idea of how they're moving. After I've kinda got a location deal going and some location..I'd switch to a soft plastic..always a horny toad and then go from there. I'll work it in a ton of different ways swimming it..deadsticking it, topwater, swimming and killing it..and usually that produces fish for me.

Trap I'd bet that your fish spawned out and you're catching bucks.

Trap if your getting stuck up in the brush use a bobber and a dead stick, float it into the brush ever so slightly. set the depth according to the water I say 3 feet off bottom, you don't have to do anything the waves will move your dead stick rig up and down. But drop shot it to keep it down near bottom!

I've been catching them around wood and rocks on some crankbaits, jerkbaits, and soft plastics. I also caught my 1st couple of drop shot fish here recently.
