Trust your instincts.. fish your confidence baits.. do not get caught up in the dock talk or what all the other anglers are saying.. everyone says they catch a bunch of fish and usually the only got 5-6 bites and caught 5 or 6 lol.. learn the routes on bass migration.. and remember community bass live and die in one little creek.. never leaving it.. if you need help with anything text me at 2523401563

So on alot of the lives/round tables i got asked what an above a shot is so here is a picture and a break down

I use a heavy dock skipping rod usually 7ft 7’6

65 pound braid (any decent flipping stick will work)

3/0 straight shank flipping hook tied palomer with the line back through just like a drop shot then I will take and put a bobber stop on the tag line end..

Next I usually use a 3/8 to a 3/4 oz bullet weight (Depending on depth/cover) .. and on the end I use a swivel tied on by a another palomer knot (so the weight will not come off and helps with line twist) then I let the weight rest on the swivel, run the bobber stop to the bottom of the weight to peg it..

I use this In areas where it is extremely heavy cover but I still want some finesse or when the bottom is muddy/gunk..

just a different approach to flipping heavy cover to keep bait suspended.. lure of choice is a Zman fatty z most of the time but experiment.. (works best in muddy to stained water)

I was in the boat in the back while Ricky was running the trolling motor.. been so long since I was on a boat from kayak I was reaching to the side of my seat trying to steer the boat.. I couldn’t let Ricky know this lol
