Is it still a thing.....

To bass fish with shiners and waterdogs? I ain't hatin', but I saw two sets of fishermen in two separate boats on Naconiche just wearing em' out yesterday.....I mean yanking them left & right.
I put 6 on the carpet (2lb males)....I saw as giant female but couldn't make her bite.
Maybe I needed a waterdog.
55° in several places and 59° on a real sunny bank.
Ugly brown water.

Get a black zoom lizard and take the back legs off. Waterdog.

Exactly...lizards are my spring go to lure.

Yes. I’ll fish with water dogs in a heart beat... you’ll get your [censored] tore up too.

No such thing as a senko back in the day and they still caught bass,, ate'em too.

Prefer Senkos.
