I usually hit up Snohomish and Skagit county, for the most part. Any place that I can launch, mainly smaller lakes.

I usually toss BBZ's, Kong's, some Hudds, Diawa DOA, Wake jr, stuff like that, mainly the big boys. I do throw the paddletail style baits, but that has minly replaced my spinnerbaits. I dont consider them swimbaits, but they do work decently for numbers more than anything.

One thing I gotta say is that a lot of people in this area think because they havent seen or caught a big fish in a certain lake, think there isnt any hogs there. That is a HUGE misconception. If you keep catching dinks, tie on a bigger lure, it could be that simple. I know it happens, but ya cant really expect to yank in hogs with 3" senko or something. Had to get that off my back, weeeewwww, now I fell better.

Couldn't say it better myself,..alot of members have nice outtings D-Shotting Senkos and Creatures and so forth,..I myself can't stand that Rig and refuse 2 use it no matter who's catching what on it,..but that's just me,.. this close last weekend 2 buying that Spro BBZ,..needed the money for something else or I would have,..Bastradamus uses alot of Big Swims and catches Bigguns,..Big Swims work wonders for me,..I use an 8'6" Rod for the distance and it's nice,..if I miss a strike and toss again and nothing happens I'll throw maybe a Chatter at them,..but seldom will I throw a worm,..hardly ever T-Rig/C-Rig/D-Shot,..just dosen't work for me and believe me I have tried,..plus it's a very boring way 2 Bass,..JMO,..! Good job SONNN,..you have 2 meet my crew! You'd fit right in! BTW SONNN nice pics!

I have given the D-shot a go, but just like you said, I just dont like that style of fishin. I do use plastics from time to time, but thats when there is a frog bite (I cant pass that up), or if its just not swimbait time. But, when I do toss plastics, they are pretty big. I have been tossin some 10" senkos, but Im still tryin to figure out the best way and when to use them.

I know Basstradamus well. He is doin very well this year on the swimmies.

I use an Okuma 7'6" Heavy for the big swimmies, smaller ones I use a 7'6" MedHvy Shimano. As long as its a quality rod, I dont see a need to go bigger. My friends have some 7'11", they are great, but just a little too long for me.

Im always down BB

Oh ya, we do well, but I personally dont like the small stuff. Nothing against it at all, just not for me. I just find it overly ammusing when someone says there is no pigs, just small ones, but they arent really tossing what a hog would like.(in my eyes)

One of the best things I have ever read: (not exact qoute) A bass wants the most amount of calories for the least amount of energy spent feeding.
If that means I have a better chance to catch a hog by tossin an "injured" trout, perch, whatever, then thats what Im gonna do. There is something satisfying aboot tossin an 8" bait, waiting for that big crush...

I couldn't agree more SONNN,..2 me Bigger Bait means Bigger Bass,..JMO,..I also toss Frogs alot early AM,..as far as the length of my Rod,..as long as I only have 2 on board it's fine 3 then it get's crowded,..way 2 long for that,..LOL,..me you Basstradamus and the Crew,..that would be a heck of a day on the water Slayin-The-Bigguns"!!!!

Sometimes them big lures just dont work though. Its pretty hard to tell a swimbait day from a non-swimbait day. But, there is only one way to find out, toss em.

I do better on the frogs on more sunny days. I do and will toss them on cloudy days, but the sun is where its at.

Where you normally goin BB?
