Thump only when you want to catch more fish.

I thump all year round. It almost always brings fish in but doesn’t always make them bite… I will use it spotlocked or drifting.

Do you thump year round? Just dead sticking? Thumping while dead sticking or live baiting in water with depths of 30 feet or more seems to be the most productive

Always since I started running with a thumper on the boat....has produced fish everytime without fail.....I mean I thought Spot lock, 4 stroke motors, down scan was a game changer.......Ive tried it both starting and not starting thumping on a fishing trip....when nothing else works, thumping brings fish in and since I use a smorgabob of baits with me ever time....it puts fish in the boat without a doubt....at least for my boat it really lights up the screen.

Glad you didn't state " all the time " !! I know better ! I’ve learned a few things since we fished together last. Lol I can say I’ve caught 100’s of stripers in shallow water in the winter at night.

[align:left][/align]Fishing has been tough sometimes on Texoma but the thumper helped Brad from Circle B Guide Service this afternoon! Spring fishing is about to kick off in earnest so get yourself a thumper… you won’t regret it!
