Bassmann86 Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 So I’ve been tossing swimbait off and on for a few years and just giving up because I would loose confidence then pick up the finesse gear but this last year I decided to finally ditch the conventional gear all together and focus 100% on swimbaits. July 2nd got my first one on a 6” ufo wake, then on July 25th I got 2 more on the wake and this morning I lost one on the 6” ufo wake trying to flip it on the bank. I was pretty heart broken when it happened but that’s fishing. @paulito saw everything go down this morning Jim137a, willlliw, Toro blanco and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassmann86 Posted August 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Thank you everyone. Question on wake bait like the 6” ufo. How would you get a follower to commit. I was just straight retrieving just fast enough to see the wake. I had a fish follow the bait right on its tail for a good 10 to 15 yards but it wouldn’t commit.

Bassmann86 Posted August 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 How deep do the crankdown 6” ufo get down to? The spot I fish is maybe 8’-10’ at the deepest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
