Summer Bass with a Drop Shot

Summer Bass with a Drop Shot: "  A favorite technique for many summer anglers is drop-shotting.  When the water is warm and the fishing is slow drop-shotting can be a lethal strategy for the tournament angler or just a lot of fun for the recreational angler. It is a great technique to use when introducing fishing to children.  Drop-shotting is simply a weight below a small soft-plastic lure so that the bait suspends just off bottom in the summertime strike zone. The technique is very versatile in catching bass in shallow water as well as deep water.

Night Bite | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Night Bite | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "As the sun was sinking in the west, the boat ramp was busy. People were loading up after a day on the water. There were some bass boats in the mix. The fishermen standing around were tired looking and slightly red from the sun despite wearing sunscreen. As most boats were leaving, a truck pulling a bass boat came in and prepared to launch. The number of rods laid out on the deck might have surprised someone looking into the boat. A casual conversation might have revealed that these fishermen were newcomers to the area and were looking for smallmouth bas."

Senko Fishing | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Senko Fishing | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Several years ago I wrote an article about a new bait - the Senko by Gary Yamamoto. And, I have to be honest, when I first saw the bait I thought it was a "used" cigar. I was entirely unimpressed with how it looked. But, the tune began to change the moment I started to fish it. Now, years later, this bait has won a lot of tournament money, and it's definitely a "hot" bait."
