Please help me! I need help catching bass, can you answer this question regarding rapala lures and worms?
I am basically a wannabee fishermen. This summer i have been fishing on our lake and havnt been having the greatest luck. I have caught 3 or 4 bass but none of those woppers or any bass consistantly. I have some rapala lures such as the skitter pop, husky jerk, j-9, and shad rap. From what i hear these are good lures?, but i still never catch fish consistantly while other bass fishermen pull them out all the time on our lake. One thing i have noticed is that they always use worms and i have tried senkos, long white zooms,but never once had luck with a worm. If someone could explain to me how to reel these lures/worms, where to fish them and when. Please help me catch some bass.
Skitter Pops are good but you never know how the fish will want you to retrieve it, so I can't really tell you how. Top water bites can be tricky, some days I'll catch fish like crazy on poppers, and other days they wont touch them. I haven't done enough research on top water fishing yet to give you any solid advice on when to fish w/ a top water lure.
The shad rap is one of my favorites (especially the jointed version) and it's one of the easiest to fish; just cast it out and reel it back in, snap your rod tip every now and then, same for the J9.
Senkos, and pretty much any stick worm are good baits. I like to fish them wacky style. Just hook the worm through the middle cast it out and let it sink to the bottom, then jig it up if nothing hits it and let it fall again.
Most "long" worms I like to texas rig, weight varying with water depth.
One lure that you really can't beat is a 3" white grub on a 1/4oz jig head. I've caught more fish on 3" white grubs than any expensive crankbait or swimbait.
Just fish around visible cover until you get more knowledgeable and skilled. Grass beds, lilly pads, brush piles in the water, rocky shore lines...
