What are your top baits of choice for the dog days of summer? I will start with c-rig, Texas rig, top water, and drop shot.

Just got back from Fork and tore them up on big jigs and big ole Texas rigged worms - 30' or deeper! Might only get 10 or fewer bites a day but the quality of the fish are nice.

Top Water is the Spook with lots of custom work.

Texas Rig is the Pumpkin Seed 7" Power Worm.

C-Rig is the Brush Hog.

Drop-Shot is the Zoom Fineness Worm.

Frog, whacky rig, Carolina rig. Top, middle, bottom. There is always others that I might use, but these are main stays this time of year.

If you don't catch anything on a watermelon red baby brush hog Texas rigged, you might as well pack your [censored] and go home.

DK, funny you say that. If I catch 300 bass this year, 250 will come from a watermelon red baby brush hog.

I like to say that to just try and get on these guys nerves.. lol. I understand, I like throwing different stuff too to just change it up. I love it when a bass nails that 6XD. But just being real, a texas rigged watermelon red plastic is all you need... If they don't hit that, you're just SOL in my opinion

Anytime I fish new waters, that's the first thing I throw. Funny thing is, I've yet to have any one on here say anything against it....
