im not just a fly, squid guy i have had some good luck with fashers and swim baits. i called it a poor man meat rig. all it was, was a 10 inch blue bubble spin doc and blue white banjo mino. the thing im about is come up with somthing that you think know one has came up with yet and put it in the water. i was sittin there playing one day and one of the best bait we had( took 4 fish) was a storm wild eye in the live perch color. its a bass lure that catches fish people couldnt belive us when we said what the hot bait of the day was this bait had nothing on it no flasher no dodger just 50' off the rigger
