Fall back methods.....
OK lets say you're in a tourney and you've got 4 bass in the box. A
front has blown thru and shut the bass bite down. Your method of catching fish is no longer working. You still need the all important 5th fish, what method do you use when it gets tough? I actually use 2, I either resort to a split-shot rig or I'll rig up a finesse worm on a jighead and go to the bridge pilings(gotta think vertical). JH33 |
Fall back methods..... Hmm pretty good, but

I would use a wacky rig "E. Carl Speros" wrote in message ... A tube, lizard or worm of 4" or so would be best, though I wouldn't use any weight. the bet way to really tantalize a Bass into striking despite his disinclination to do so is to allow the soft plastic to drop ever so slowly. More reluctant fish are caught on the drop, so slowing down the drop would be more effective in my (never humble) opnion ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Then raise the Harp of Erin boys, the flag we all revere, We'll fight & fall beneath its folds like Irish Volunteers" from Dave Kincaids song & CD "The Irish Volunteer" Lancaster Civil War Round Table Website http://community.webtv.net/GrayGhost...eCivilWarRound Carl Speros webmaster. |
Fall back methods.....
I would fish the same area where I was catching bass before. They didn't go
far if they moved at all. I would downsize my baits, slow down and fish tighter to the cover. Brad Coovert 2003 Angler of the Year, Greenfield Bassmasters http://www.greenfieldbassmasters.com |

Fall back methods.....
Options vary with type of water, cover options, etc.
In general: Drop down in size of bait, Fish tighter to cover, Fish slower. On the otherhand if you can get tight enough to cover, you may be able to fish fast looking for a reaction strike. Go to finesse tactics or flipping/pitching stuff. On the otherhand if you can get tight enough to cover, you may be able to fish fast looking for a reaction strike. Fish deeper or get to moving water if you can find it. Fish in either situation as less effected by cold fronts. How has everyone been? I know, I haven't been around for quite awhile.
