merc1997 Bo Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 got out with linda for a short while last night (friday) and could not find a bite. but, as i have often pointed out, you could be fishing where the bass are, but not doing the right thing to trigger bites. last night was a prime example of just that. we could not buy a bite and i am sure that all the boats in the area were not helping. i finally started changing weights and all kinds of different plastics and finally came up with the right combination, a 5 inch senko on a 3/8 head. caught 4 keeps including a very good one in 15 minutes and then the storms were getting too close and we loaded up and hurried home. we got there none too soon either. when you are sure there are fish in the area and not getting any bites, stay put and keep trying different things until you unlock the lock and make them bite. bo Ron Burgundy, vernon, 176champion and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
