I am primarily a live bait fisherman. Here I fish the Tennessee river system and it is the first week in July. I think for those people who find battling the heat for too little payoff should consider taking a few trips out with live bait. Get you some large shiners or shad, go out and do the same thing you are talking about. Pitching and punching docks, boat ramp and along the shoreline in the morning hours or the evening hours. During the heat of the day go deep along ledges and bank shelf's. BIG bass in my area are feeding and a live shad or shiner will get you strikes that are hard bites, hard hitting and fun. Just in the last week doing this I have caught one 13 pound, 3 in the 13-12 pound range and so many in the 6-11 pound range that I cannot count. I can report that between the 3-5 pound range has been great this year here. On every outing live bait is bringing fish into the boat every year. Many of my trips I have a lure fisherman with me and we fish the same areas floating by and I am always getting fish while they are pitching lures and getting every once in a while fish. I have nothing against lures but I can honestly say when I am fishing I mean to catch fish which I do and not just pitch lures more than catching. So I suggest if you are not catching fish then get yourself a cast-net and grab a few minnows, shad, shiners in yr live well and take a go. You may very well be hugely surprised at the results you find. Either way, live bait or lures, get out there and fish and have fun. Take plenty of water be safe and enjoy nature. You all have a great summer!
Absolutely! As someone who doesn’t have livescope or anything like that I love the challenge of going out and finding fish and then that chess game of trying to make them bite. I enjoy that challenge. Sure there may be days where it’s slow and tough to get bites but when you put a bag together it’s so rewarding. That challenge is what keeps me going on the tough days. That challenge is what I enjoy which is why you don’t see me pond fishing either. I’m not saying that’s not challenging because I know it is but it’s different when we’re talking thousands of acres compared to tens of acres.
I’ll be honest I just started tossing it around last year more than I ever had and I caught some BIGS on it! I have a video coming out in a few weeks where I catch a GOOD one on it!
EPIC BREAKDOWN" THANKS! NEWSUB in IDAHO!

Greetings from California. New sub. Just reorganized my vibrating jigs box because I am finding so many during our lake drawdown.
Thanks for subscribing! Vibrating jigs are 🔥🔥
People think that you have to wind a chatter bait I’ve drug it on bottom and yo-yo it and caught multiple fish over 8
Absolutely! No wrong way to fish it and seems like the biggest fish bite when you are not straight retrieving it!
