i need a very very weedless bait

[Green04]

any ideas on a VERY weedless bait. the weeds and growth under the water where im fishing is THICK. any ideas? .. besides top water. weedless rigged shaky heads, and texas rigged things the bullet sinker, and/or shaky jig head get caught in the weeds and i have to reel alllllll of them in

One of the many frog baits on the market would work. The Scum Frog is named well. I also like the new toad/frog plastic baits. They give very life-like action and are weedless until you get a hit.

You might try a Fluke or swim bait. Work them like a jerk bait

yeah, thats almost what i was thinkin. was just lookin for somethin i could more jig, sense the waters still a little cold. but im gona give a frog a shot tomorrow with no weight just try and drag it right over the weeds.

in the summer, the pond im fishing will grow up ALOT and the weeds , ( i dunno exactly what they are) will be very long and break the surface. on one whole side of the pond

If you can identify holes in the vegetation rig up a Senko weightless and drop it in the holes. If the frog doesn't work I've had luck texas rigging a lizard or a zoom brushhog without a sinker and working it close to the surface; stays in the strike zone much longer and the curly tail gives it a subtle buzzbait like action

 

[southern.in.guy]

Try a Strike King flipping tube with no wait they have a solid head which give them a little extra weight. A senko type bait rigged texas style or a fluke well also work good to. Just fish them real slow the water is still pretty cold. Good Luck

I love when the weeds are like that. I always throw a Spro Bronzeye frog, work it over the mats and then pull it to a hole of water and bam. Usually does best in another month or longer.

try to pin your bullet weights with a tooth pick.
Also, try a Slug=Go

 

[jblomenberg16]

rhart has it right. Peg you bullet sinkers, or try a Senko or Slug-O. Some of them you can even put a little piece of metal finishing nail in the head to help them sink a bit better.

You can throw them in the weeds, trees, and on top of heavy cover without worry.

Touchdown worms have always been my go to bait in the weeds.

kk, will try thank you. ive been useing a fluke and its been working. went yesterday for about 2 hours and caught 3 decent bass

 

[dougt06]

I have to agree with Stickfight... I have always had good luck with touchdown worms in thick weeds. Black with a green tail have always done the trick for me.

dynomite is very weedless and it doesn't even matter if the fish are biting.

 

[erik7941]

The two things I've figured out about weedless baits is that most "weedless" baits, aren't weedless. And the best thing to help get rid of weeds is to use copper sulfate (if you're able to do so).

 

[dcary7]

Throw a stick bait like a senko, but bury the hook back in it like a fluke.. or just throw a fluke.. either one will work well.

 

[rimfire_crazed]

rigging a texposed tube and pitching it into the holes might work for you.

 

[HICKMAN]

I love weightless Senko's and Flukes, texas rigged with the point buried in them for weeds... they just can't leave it alone!
