    Dude! All day!!!! Different techniques…. What a day! So fun!!! Drop shot is a winner for me and I always try top water in the morning. Caught a lot on Googan Hound walking bait, the Googan Revolver, Googan Blooper and lots on wacky rigged and shakey heads.

    Extremely educational video, especially for a total beginner like me. I was having a lot of trouble understanding what the bite on a Senko looked like and didn't realize that it was so subtle. Do you mind explaining how you knew that you had a fish on at 12:00? I didn't see any movement in the line, so I'm guessing that you felt the weight of the fish when you lifted your rod?
    Would be great if you could do a video breaking down the basics of fishing a Senko in CA (colors, sizes, when to throw weighted vs weightless, what areas to target, bite detection (especially telling the difference between a fish and weeds/grass), etc.), since the conditions out here are quite a bit different than in other states. Thanks again for making this!

    You can never go wrong with a "FAT IKA" by Yamamoto. Green Pumpkin candy works good there. And if they're busting on shad, I throw a weightless zoom super fluke jr in Rainbow Shad. The Strike King Baby Rage craw on a 3/16oz Shaky Head with a size 2/0 hook or a 1/0 Jig Rig is excellent there also in the Green Pumpkin or the Blue Craw Red Flake. Follow me on IG@BassmasterIce.

I have a medium light spinning set up with 6lb fluorocarbon. Can I wacky a 5 inch or should I go with 4 or something else? The water level is so high and I’m thinking about focusing on the dam in the coming weeks. Thoughts, Tips, Recommendations? Thank you!!

Also, how long do you generally make your leaders. It would be awesome if you did a complete gear review video, showing all your setups, as well as bait choices based on seasons/conditions.
