Thread: Cast and retrieve

My primary method, preferred method, "go to" method from the start ... all other methods are employed only when the cast/retrieve method isn't productive or isn't an efficient presentation.

I cast and retrieve 80-90% of the time and long pole vertical fish tight to cover the remaining time.

When the fish are shallow, 5' or less, or the water fairly clear it seems like casting works better than getting right on top of them, for me anyway.

Casting 90% for me too.

Remember what is says in the Bible:

"Cast thy jig upon the waters ..."

I fish with slip bobbers 90 percent of the time because that is what I like to do. Sometimes this is the best way to catch them and sometimes not. I do cast a jig before leaving a spot to see if it does any better but most of the time it does not. I normally have a tight line over the side of the boat. So fishing 2 slip bobbers and a tight line over the side of the boat keeps me very busy. People think it is just sitting there watching a bobber but it is way more then that. When not in tournaments I will use single pole and just have fun.

I also cast about 105% of the time DB4D....the other 5% is when I am dreaming about going fishing.
