@PatrioticBiker8 жыл бұрын
+Vykk Draygo well it's definitely smaller than a football field. I know there are bad at the north end which is also the shallowest and I can see the bass but every bait I try they don't go for.
@Vykk_Draygo8 жыл бұрын
PatrioticPitBiker Well, what are the bass eating there? I know bass here in Texas eat a lot of crawfish, so I was imitating that. If you are using a jig, and they still don't bite, just make sure you are doing the proper technique (lift the bait, let it drop, reel the slack, repeat). But yeah, you could try something more finesse, like a wacky rig, or something like a drop shot.
@PatrioticBiker8 жыл бұрын
+Vykk Draygo yeah the problem is they eat from a feeder, and that's where most hang around. I've tried jigs and pretty much any plastic worm gets stuck on the rock. I was kind of asking cause I thought my heavier spinning rod might not be presenting the lure correctly

What difference does vertical and horizontal line tie make on jigs?
@theunluckyfisherman48459 жыл бұрын
***** Where you hook the fish, and how easy it is for the lure to come out of the fish's mouth. With a horizontal one, you will mostly hook the fish in the top part of the mouth, which is what you want. There is more bone and strong cartilage at the top, and you will lose less fish. With a vertical line tie, you will hook the fish in the side of the mouth most of the time, if at all. You will get a much worse hookset with a vertical line tie, although it does come through cover better. Vertical line ties will sometimes fly right out of the fish's mouth without hooking anything, because the hook is sideways. Horizontal line ties will sometimes get snagged up, but with a few quick snaps of the rod it should come out. It just depends on what you want to sacrifice. Shape of the head of the jig also plays a role. I almost never fish a vertical line tie anymore. Its a long video, but check out "Nu-Tech lures guide arms hooks and pull lines". They talk about EWG hooks and vertical/horizontal line ties. then they try and sell you their product, which is annoying but it does work, i use it all the time.

@golfalot18 жыл бұрын
Sure, it makes changing out crankbaits and jigs quicker than re-tying; but I feel a clip on with an attached swivel affects the natural action of the lure and adds some front weight to it. If a bass jumps and shakes it can open that clip easily. If you are using spinning gear and use a barrel swivel to avoid line twist you are talking 3 knots...3 chances for knot failure. But hey, if it's working for you...fantastic. Indeed there's more than one way to skin a cat. Good luck out there and tight lines!
