Minner Rigs

I've never figured out how 2 guys fishing right beside each other with the same presentation, depth, ect. yet one is lifting fish quick as he gets his bait in the water and the other is barely catching, really weird but I've seen it many times before. Been a couple years back but they wanted a white head and purple 2" tube jig down about 18' in 20-22 FOW. I was lifting fish one right after the other yet my father couldn't buy a bite??? It's happens and I've been on the other end of it myself wondering what they heck is he doing any different than me?

have wondered that myself. Could it have anything to do with smell, something someone had on their hands or on thier tackle ???

Yep, in trolling/spider rigging. One time the person in front catches everything while the person in back doesn't catch a thing. Next time, can't buy a bite in the front of the boat.

I'm here learning just like most of us.I'm always trying new things I heard on here. You have to fine tune what works best for you through trial and error. Even the Pro's have a bad day!The main thing is to have a open mind, try new things, and sooner or later you will find what you are looking for!The more you are on the water the better. What better teacher than mother nature herself!Good luck out there!Catch a boat load!:biggrin

Thanks Big Guy!! I swear i read this somewhere before:biggrin:biggrin
'''Glad y'all had a good day!!! Good days aren't always measured by the number of fish caught!!! The scenery, the company, takin a kid fishing, sharing with a parent, spouse or your own children, the wildlife, making a new friend, or helping someone learn. These are what make the best days!!!!''''

Caught a boatload of big bull bream spitting scoll bandit juice on the cricket. They was biting kinda slow till I did that and then they were wearing it out!Catching at least 3 to 1 on a guy that was in the front of the boat, hitting the same spots he just worked over! Ended the day with 79 bulls!Private lake in Forrest City! Sorry no pics, din't happen I know!:dono
