Just wondering what most people catch fish on that put them in the money . My last two money finishes were on c-rig and the next was a jig and lipless crank bait

Crankbaits and finesse jigs have won me more money than anything else.

Yamamoto Senko


The 6' Monster Shad color was considered a secret bait for me this past Spring. It bailed me out 4-5 times. Twice I went until noon without a bite, picked up a senko and managed about 16 pounds to put me in good money. Senkos are definitely a bait that I'll always have tied on.

Have caught my personal best. Top 5 bests...on a jig. Win tourneys on Senkos, drop shot robos, Red Eye lipless cranks, and Lucky Craft cranks. They are more consistant at catching good fish. Or in some cases, simply catching a limit each day.

square bill for covering water(rocks, shallow grass, scattered cover)
Texas rig for thick cover
senko for vertical cover (docks, bridge columns, and standing timber)
Carolina rig(off shore grass and brush piles)
usually target a limit with a square bill early and then fish isolated targets with the rest for bigger bites.

cranks of all shapes and sizes mainly 1.5-2.5 square bills then 6xds. With all the flooded cover this year a 3/8oz swimjig in white or bluegill colors was a productive bait for me as well.

Can't go wrong with a T-rig senko or wacky style seems to always catch em.


It's an obsession
