Northwest Fishing Reports

is there a possibility that we could get this thread goin with all the different baits with a picture possibly

its rather difficult for someone like me who doesnt know about the different baits. about all i have done is use the hook/bober method

Bottom bounceing with a flatfish.

Never tried it from shore but I have trolled flatfish with success.

come on people. for a newbie like me this thread would be a godsend.

Name a few that you would like to see and I will try to post some pics for you.

Bobber and Bait - using a bobber, slitshots and hook with normaly worms or maggots for panfish, sometimes trout.

Crankbait - A plastic or wooden lure with a diving bill, that dives downward when retrieved or "cranked."

Soft Plastics - artificial Grubs, worms, tubes, etc.

Fly fishing - using special equiptment such as wieghted lines, and fly reels with artificial flys.

Trolling - A method of fish where you have bait/lures behind the boat while moving slowly(in most situations) ex: using a downrigger or diver for salmon fishing

Rigging Plastics

I never knew there was so many ways to rig them. Those pictures were very helpful.

if your new to bass fishing you should print these out and put them in your tackle box. you will definately forget about some of these rigs when they are most important.

ive been a bass fisher guy for 30 years, but this is the first time ive seen ALL the different set-ups. thanks guys, it turned out to be an awesome thread.
