Dragging that little turd usually works...sure is boring though.

 

I've found thru the years that "boring" is a very relative term among fishermen. Other than topwater action, I've had guide clients call practically every tactic in the book "boring" at one point or another.

Had a guy years ago down at Ouachita who grew weary of pitching a 3/4-ounce jig into matted hydrilla/coontail grass --- and he had caught four fish between 5 and 7.25 pounds in 3 hours time.

My "low fun" light tends to flicker at even the thought of having to jig a spoon, unless it's a 200-fish day such as the white bass trip that my bro-in-law and I enjoyed one day several years back with Bill Babler.

 A close second on my "I'll just stay home and play golf" list is hurling a dad-blamed A-rig. 

Isn't it great that God made us all different?

True that...... I love jiggin' a spoon, and the A-rig is a ball for me to throw just because of the novelty of it,  and the possibility of catching multiple fish on one cast.  Its all fun and I want to do it all...

With limited time on the water these days there is nothing you could make me throw that would be boring. Maybe if I was out alot I'd get bored of one presentation of another but not currently. I got a 4 hour trip on Monday and threw a jerkbait for an hour straight with 0 bite. Not boring. Threw the arig for the other 3 and got 1 bite. Again, not boring. Loved every minute of it. Heres my 1 bite.

Yep.  You got your winders and you got your draggers.  Fun when you have both in the same boat, right dear?

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.
