I've noticed this year has been differenton fishing than any other year. I've also noticed that this year I've been using more baits for reaction bites than in years past. Just wondering from all of you what you have experienced and what you have done to locate fish?

Top water has had a weird place in my arsonal this year and I found myself throeing it more often in the heat of the day than most other lures.

I use the my electronics, but then again, you know me, I don't beat the banks and I will sit on a hump or a brush pile with not fish for hours before I will run a bank with a squarebill or something else. However, I have found myself using other presentations than my regular.

I have an old "crank" telephone

I follow Gary Paris from the ramp...it saves me a lot of time

Me 2

I just look for the wrapped boats and jerseys

Thats what I do!

I know I've had to find a lot of new stuff this year. I just got an si a couple of weeks ago and have been playing with it alot. This has been good to get me off the bank.

But with the low waters, a lot of my spots are high and dry or in too little water to hold fish. Makes those deeper areas even more appealing!

I ride around with Jason (Bass Johnson) and he finds them for me

with my normal go-to's out of the water ive forced myself to slow down alot

That's my problem too, everything I used to fish (I like it shallow) is dry land now so I'm just experimenting with limited results.

I find the food!

I never take the wrapped boat or wear a jersey while cranking em up with ma bell ..

I Pitch it 1,000 times a day. Works everytime!
