Bass Fishing Plano

How many lures do YOU need to fish?
When I was a young whipper-snapper I needed 15 lb’s of tackle to go catch a bunch of 2-5LB Bass. Since recently purchasing a new Kayak, I’ve “down-sized” to 2 small plano “insert” boxes & 1 “over-stuffed” worm bag.
Let’s play “Name that Tune” I mean ,”Name that Lure”!
” I can win that tourney with one bag of worms & a 1/4 OZ spinner-bait”…..(LOL)
(er….the younger folk won’t get my “Name that Tune” reference. So, “younger folk” just lol anyway!)
I need exactly 1 at a time! Sometimes that means trying 20-30 different ones to find it. In order to narrow the search down to the 20-30 I need to start from a selection of hundreds (1000’s? lol) and start eliminating ’stuff’ that won’t make the final cut. When I finally arrive at my 1 selection (and it is 90% of the time a jig/craw or TX rigged plastic) I push my huge tackle bag to the back of the boat for ballast. It really helps even out the weight of the boat since I usually fish alone! Don’t even try that on a kayak.
Glad to hear you really got into the ’snakes’ last week with some fantastic catches.
My friend I suggest you read “The Old Man and the Sea” before you set out in that kayak for some saltwater action. Heehee
BTW…I can win that tourney with 1 Strike King 3x crawworm.
Rock on!
