      I don't ever throw spinnerbaits but the wind was gusting 30 knots so I had to try. First cast this guy hit it so hard he tried to swallow it and the hook missed his eye by a fraction of an inch. Had a couple other hits but no hookups.

      Got 3 today on jerkbaits between 1 and 2 lbs. The bigger boys around 2 lbs and up usually don't want to play but with all the rain we got they were up shallower and ready to eat!

      First crankbait fish that I've caught in years! Being primarily a bank fisherman, it's just not something I throw often because I would get hung up and lose them so much that I got tired of throwing away money. In this case, I used it as it was meant to be used, deflecting off some rocks and silty bottom and that was what drew the strike!

      I'm so glad I learned to fish the dropshot. While it may be boring at times, it just gets bit when nothing else will! Roboworm is where it's at, I either throw Margarita Mutilator or some kind of natural bait fish color. I use 6th Sense dropshot hooks because they're strong and light wire. I use cheap lead bass casting dropshot weights though because I lose a lot of dropshot rigs and tungsten got to be too expensive to lose.

      My new PB! 5 pounder out of a small local pond. Caught on a Zoom Super Fluke on a Harmony Fishing swim bait hook. She slammed it right up against shore just as I was about to pull it out of the water.
