Yum baits

I got some of these Yum brand baits.
I got some Yum Houdini Shad for Spring and Summer around brush and other structure. I will rig these either Texas rig weightless or wacky.

I got some crawdads too. These aren't like the craws used as trailers. These are more like tubes with a hollow middle. They float if a weight isn't used. I rigged these up Texas rigged backward with an Arkie brand 1/8 oz weighted hook. I did a test on them and when dropped into water, they stand up in a defensive position just like a craw defending against a big bass.

These have to be fished very slow and deadsticked for a few seconds. This will ensure a bite and if not, a twitch will work.

Go and get the Yum baits today and start a bass catching frenzy!

Iced rod guides

Went fishing this morning in the 30 degree temps. It was colder than ever and I took a picture of the iced rod guides I had to contend with while fishing for bass. Nevertheless, I didn't catch anything and neither did the guys on the boats out in front of me.

We will try again another day.

Lipless crank for winter bass

Went out this morning on lake Lanier. Water temp was still pretty cold since it has been raining here for the past few days. The outside temp was great for fishing though. It was around 60 with very light to no wind at all.

I rigged up my cotton Cornell lipless crankbait at first with no success. I then rigged up my new bass pro shop tourney series lipless crankbait in this bluefin shad color with the bleeding bottom. I cast it out a few times with no luck and almost attempted to give up. I then said a little prayer and cast it out once more really hoping it would work this time or I was going home.

This time I didn't work the bait like a normal crankbait. I thought we'll since the water temp is cold I will try and work this like a plastic worm dragging it across the lake bottom. Apparently that got the bass' attention because he engulfed it and I set the hook. He fought really hard but it was worth it. Check out the pictures. Keep fishing big and have a great day!

Fishing

Haven't updated in a few. I went fishing today and I caught a bass just to say my hooks weren't sharp enough to hook him completely. He got away!

Other fishing news is I stopped by bass pro and picked up some new baits and got my new tackle catalog in the mail. Cannot wait to order more fishing supplies and catch some big ones!

Jerkbait found

Went fishing the other day and found this jerkbait lying next to the water.

This has brand new hooks!

Ready to use it and catch some big bass.

Stay tuned for bass caught with this productive bait.
