    Ryan,
    I caught probably 5 or 6 yesterday on that finesse worm, castin it to the bank and barely moving it in the water and staying outa sight as much as i could. This has worked for me for years.....

    If a cruising bass pays no attention to what I am throwing, I will try a bright color for a reaction hit, or try to let a senko bounce off it's head - if that doesn't work, I quit wasting time and maybe come back a little later, but ease up a little slower. If a fish is up on the bed, you can spend more time working them.

    if you see em, scoot out use some light line and a lizard with no weigh,throw it on the bank to make no splash well in front of where they are headed.sometimes it works sometimes it don't...
    you think catching a cruising bass is hard wait til you get married...
