In my response to this post some of the plastic baits are made to catch fishermen mostly because they have bright colors and are very attractive to the human eye. I tried to fish with something that looks natural not pleasing my eye but trying to please the fisheye is I'm more apt to use different shades of brown and gray and of course black is probably the number one choice. we talk about presentation it is a key to each and every one either plastic baits or crank baits or jigs it is how you present to the fish whether they strike or not. most of us bass fishermen know how to modify our crank baits so they may swim true. will tell you a little story about when I was about 15 years old I decided to carve me out a flat fish can I painted it black I just threw on some trouble hook did not pay any attention to what size or anything else but this homemade crank bait caught me lots of bass. somehow I ruined a trouble hook and put on a other well it killed the action in the end of the story here is that the careful on the way that you change your crank baits. how many of you guys have used jigs and know that they sure there but you are not catching them . and how many of you are carrying a wide variety of different materials on your jigs . this is another little short story when I was about 13 years old I was casting marabou jig I was not catching one blessed fish a guy standing beside me was catching crappie one after another it was driving me crazy so I asked him what he was using or what type of jig he showed me something to look like a broom it had stiff nylon hair and they were clear so I'm assuming that the fish did not want any action they wanted something that was more or less no action at all did the trick so you definitely do carry a wide variety of jigs when you are fishing especially when it comes to material. back to Bass fishing a little bit I usually carry about 100 crank baits but I'm only using one or two of my favorite every time I go out kind of ironic that you would carry all those crank baits but you're only using one or two that you know that will definitely catch fish time after time shows you how much money as guys waste but it is the curiosity of his fisherman we are more apt to look at something that looks good and that may not be good so I guess I'll a lot of this has to do with trial and error when you were out fishing we learn from experience over the years the best way the best techniques on how to catch fish.
