biggfeast Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 The 7” used to be a staple in my arsenal, throw it around and over cover in low light conditions (sunrise, sunset, and night). I typically like to target areas with high grass or brush with about 6” to 2~3ft water clearance. They’ll come out from under and smoke it. Also like to throw it up shallow on points and wake it and give it some pops/twitches in between. I usually will always start by throwing it shallow and keeping the bait close to the shoreline and gradually fan casting out to deeper water to work a specific area. This will also help you know where the fish are hanging out at on a given day. Itll get bit, just keep chucking it Willluvstafish and Noreaster603 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpoppabass Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Slammer is best on windy weed edges anytime of day really. But there is a learning curve to it, and you gotta have the right rig for it too. When I started I almost we quit, because I went 6 months without a hit then I stopped it by the boat and noticed it dance and a fish ate it. I then strived to imitate that movement on a retrieve. surfk9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEbucketmouth19 Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 In addition to what other said, don't overlook it as a cover bait. I like casting it next to laydowns and just twitch it in place. My biggest bite ever (which of course...got off) on a slammer was in the fall just deadsticking it next to a downed tree. It probably sat there for 20 or 30 seconds before it got slurped.
