| This type of over
can be hard to fish. You need a lure that will penetrate the base of the
grass and not get stuck when you make an errant cast. Heavy gear and heavy
line is a must! Cast into the base of the grass and get the lure in there as
far as you can. Make a little commotion on the surface and if the fish are
using the grass as cover, they'll hit it. Weedless Frogs, Rats, or plastics
will work here. Every once in a while you can catch a fish in front of the
grass on a spinner or crank bait, but the best fish will be tucked away
inside the grass during the day. Make sure you cast into any pockets or
openings in the grass. |
