queensland Last 2 Days A Blast He Says

[Dinodadog]

Well I got greedy again, after a good day on the lures yesterday 73 bass, I hit the pond again this morning for 71 bass. They were a bit harder to entice into action this morning, they wanted to sleep in. I have been having a bit of fun lately with plastics, having chased flathead on plastics and not interested in bream and having used plastics on beetle spins, I decided it was time to get into plastics on bass. I have caught plenty but not consistently, so over the last few trips I have been trying different types, colors and casting methods. It was not going so well, until I  looked up some old notes I made years a go,it said try a jighead with big eyes and color coded to the plastic you are using, well it worked I was getting bass hopping the plastic on the bottom and also slow rolling through the school on the bottom and suspended ones.Its good to put a smile on the dial now and again. Now off to the tackle shop again to get a dozen different jig colors to go with the couple of thousand dollars worth the plastics that I have.

Forgot to mention a 50cm each day and one of the fish below was caught by the fin, see if you can see which one.

Nice one Dennis !! I grabbed some sliders from Freddy’s the other week, just like the ones you like to use.

Just remember the eyes have it, I was using plain jigheads and having no luck at all, then when I put the jigheads with good sized eyes the bass were all over them.

Thats really cool information. Thanks Dino. Nice fish too. D

Do you paint eyes on your other lures? Like the blades?

[Dinodadog]

I used to but now buy eyes and stick them on as long as its flat surface.
