Pork Chop Beats the Drop Shot at Mille Lacs!!! - 09/29/17 11:40 AM

Well the Texas Boy gets it done with a 1 oz Football Jig & Rage Craw against the best drop shotters in the country.

I suppose the thing I love about bass fishing is that there are no absolutes. You think one day, you have them really dialed in. The next day your pattern evaporates.

Sorry fellas, I just couldn't resist after all the talk about how effective finesse fishing is for big fish. Had to rub it in a bit. roflmao roflmao roflmao

Now don't be offended. I am not bashing fairy wands. I am just saying as for me, I would PREFER to fish a big bait.

I love throwing a jig when they are biting it.

Strange to see you Ken in a boat with only a 200 hp motor on it. LOL

5 bites a day on a 1oz fb jig will normally put you in the money.

Always a jig/craw worm tied on in my boat. I know for a fact they catch big bass.

Yes, yes they do.

And that bass Ken is holding has perfect giant bass proportions!
That's the kind you see on a bed and think 8lb but then pull out of the water and she's a 12!
