dtrs5kprs Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The finesse episode of the Zman Project Z is up. Interesting to watch pros fish it, even if the location worked for them. http://projectzfishing.com/video/search/lSyFah4g Muddy Water, Daryk Campbell Sr and abkeenan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishingaddiction Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Good video. They caught them fairly good on the TRD. Born to Fish. Forced to Work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicwormman Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Good video Dave! I would have liked to see conditions a little better and see the results. I see the Pros know how to fish a spinning rod too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithvillesteve Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Good video Dave. I got a question. I see some of the guys on the forum will fish the Ned Rig on Stockton as well as Table Rock. Both very clear waters. What about up here north? I fish Smithville Lake and i guess the water clarity at around 2 ft right now. Will the TRD work in water with that much color to it? Thanks for any input to my question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daryk Campbell Sr Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Definitely works in dirty water. I don't even swap out to a brighter color. Rule of thumb, dirty water darker bait. Lighter water lighter colored bait. At least that's what I've been told. Seems to work for me. Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me) I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gramps50 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I have fished in some ponds around here and the water in them looks nothing like Table Rock. I would say visibility is about 2-2.5 ft. Nothing big but I did catch fish on them. Took the wife and rigged her up with a Neds and she was, out catching me, I spent all my time taking her fish off and didn't have time to fish. I think PBJ is best color with the next being GP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the order I would list the colors in. Those two seem to be as close to universal as it gets. Wives, kids, and girlfriends will whip you with that little rig. They fish it slower, and do less to it. Basically, they (or a lot of them, sorry for the generalization) have not been taught to "work" a bait, and end up letting the plastic do what it is supposed to do. One of the easiest ways to fish it is to throw it out, let it sink, then look up at the dogwoods, eagle, woodpecker, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 One of the easiest ways to fish it is to throw it out, let it sink, then look up at the dogwoods, eagle, woodpecker, whatever. I like to find my line up points on the shoreline, docks, big trees, fences anything to help me find the proper angle off shore. Then I start talking & drag the bait 1" then start staring at my electronics & marking way points. by that time they either have it or I drag it again. sometimes, they will be on there when I drag the bait but they're allowing me to pull them along. Like leading a dog around on a tight leash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 David Walker did that same thing on his first fish, he didn't know the bass was on the line when he started talking about his shivering technique. Then the fish starts swimming towards the boat but he lost the fish due to horsing it instead of keeping constant pressure on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
