You must be pretty good ratl you come with new fish you catch like once a day, I'm impressed.

RatLTrap · 08-18-06, 06:51 PM

Thanks you Ironman.

I usually go fishing everyday for 15-30 minutes lol, and seems like lately i've really been a-catchin em. Sometimes I go for longer, but usually I just fish for 30 minutes lol.

ironman · 08-18-06, 06:58 PM

Hopefully one day I will be that good I would be luckey to catch 4 bass a month, Pretty sad huh,lol.I go about every other day at a pond and about every other weekend on a lake but I have never caught anything on a lake I don't kow why though.

RatLTrap · 08-18-06, 07:24 PM

hmmm its probably all in where you throw the bait, and your presentation. I learnt from watching other good fisherman fish.

brandonjames · 08-19-06, 04:44 PM

Is that all you do is fish from shore, becuase you always have one hell of a catch. From the videos that I have seen of you it looks like you do alot of flipping from shore, so I assume that you use alot of soft baits. And if you dont mind, explain what you meat by your last post on the presentation and how you throw your bait. What I mean by that is for instance why do you throw your bait to the left and not the right, why not both, and what is your presentation?

RatLTrap · 08-19-06, 04:55 PM

Yes, I fish from the shore mostly.

You have to throw it where the fish is... you have to pick apart the cover, and keep your bait in the strike zone for as long a period of time as you can. I caught that big one in the video right off the edge of a big tree branch... thats what i mean by throwing it where the bass are.

Presentation, I always just assume there is a big bass watching my bait, and what I should do to make that bass want it.

PowerBass · 08-19-06, 05:35 PM

Nice Job RatlTrap. What rod and line do you use?

RatLTrap · 08-19-06, 06:07 PM

haha i use a rod/reel that Rebbasser sold me when i first joined the site, and I use cheap line from wal-mart that crappy stuff... lol

crankybait · 08-19-06, 06:21 PM

well, ratlnator (that is what I'm callin' you from now on), nice job... and they say the gear matters.
