So I recently started using my vex and it has helped me out quite a bit, however, today I noticed a few times I had fish that were interested in my bait but I just couldn't get them to bite. What techniques do many of you use when you see a fish approach your bait and not take it right away or you simply see a fish somewhere in the water column and you want to target that fish?
Tie rock on stick , light end of stick , drop down hole , run like a you got a hillbillies daughter knocked up , grab net from truck , after it calms back down go scoop up fish
thus begins the chess game. Its a matter of finding the right size, color, jigging presentation that the fish wants that particular day. When I get into a situation where I have fish that will come off the bottom to my bait and not take it the first thing I will do is to change size of the jig I am using but keep the same color. If that doesn't work then I will change bait (plastic to spikes or minnow heads) if that doesn't work then I change color. If that still doesn't work then I change presenations from horizontal to vertical. If that doesn't work I go to the store and buy fish HAHA.
I always wondered what the correct thing to do was when you knocked up a hillbillies daughter. WS
If after all these methods don't work,Just go home and blame it on the moon. That is what I do.
Just make sure you zigzag to avoid the bullets lol
