There's no rules or standard retrieve for any bass lure, just try everything
& let the fish tell you what they like. There's no difference between a
Slider & any other straight tail finesse worm, though the Slider is one of
the originals.

I just read Slider Fishin' and I found it to be really interesting. I
like the way he really tells you exactly what to do in precise detail.
I have a question. He talks about rhythm being really important during
your retrieve. He says if you are retrieving your lure at 1 crank
every 3 seconds you should maintain that speed the whole retrieve. I'm
assuming he also means that if you are doing a lift and drop retrieve
you should do it consistently. This advice seems to contradict what
I've read in other books. Most other's seem to recommend a varied
retrieve. The funny thing is that in my experience a rhythmic retrieve
does work.

Any comments?
