    Re: Something unusual that you do

    My best secret is to curse and say "they just aren't biting!" That's when the strike occurs.

    Re: Something unusual that you do

    When it's a bright sky, I'll skip a weightless senko far up under pontoon boats. I can't tell you how many quality fish I've caught doing this on just about every lake I fish. A word of caution however, if your cast misses the hole between the pontoon's motor and pontoons and makes a loud banging noise, game over for that spot and you may as well move on to the next boat.

    Re: Something unusual that you do

    I guess the one thing I do and it is probably is no secret, I'm a bottom bumper, and when my bait hits the bottom I will lift the bait very slowly for the first 6in to test if it has that wet sock feeling as I call it, lol and if it does I will come straight up and do what I call a pressure set, if not I will lift another 6in or so and before I let it fall I will lower the rod tip and bump the bate with the slack once or twice then let it fall, It may be too much action at times but it has served me well.

    Re: Something unusual that you do

    In the spirit of Easter; I pray and ask which side of the boat to cast to

    Sorry, I don't have any tricks to help. I have been using the carolina rig. I have not had luck with it yet but I plan to stick with it. I think I will downsize it sometime. I use a carolina keeper also; so much simpler if you want to adjust your leader.

    try saying " they just aren't biting! " without cursing. and I'll bet you get the same results.
