Do you have sonar or other electronics on your boat? Do you have a boat?
U aint feeling nothing with that vengeance rod.

Great tip. Interesting stuff.
The problem with fish finders you only seeing what was behind you.
Also electronic stuff is great until it stops working or you forgot to charge the battery.
Bank angler here no boat. Nice tips thanks. I must say that lake your fishing at looks great. The lakes I fish have no rocks, very, very little timber. Summer time the place is chocked off with weeds. Now, there's still thick scum mats in certain spots, but I can locate a few area's that are hard clay bottom. the rest of the bottom is silt grass. I've tried everything except…a jig. That will be my next move because the past 5 weeks I've caught one quarter pounder after doing very well this past spring, summer.
I saw that graphic and was like wow! Very nice job with this video. This is going to be so helpful to so many anglers!
Years ago, I saw and old man fishing on the bank and he was just casting his jig out over and over in the same general area and slowly dragging it back. I asked him what he was doing and he said "I'm feeling out the bottom". I go back to what I was doing as he makes more casts. After a few more minutes, I here him say "Oh, there you are!" as he's dragging his jig back in. Then on the next cast, Bam! he hooks a 5 pounder. I'll never forget that.
I've started doing this recently and it has really helped! I stumbled on it by accident, but it works!
That is a great tip! Thanks!
I don't fish jigs all that often, but I'm trying this for sure!
Great Scott! This is going to level-up my fishing! The only information that has registered in my brain has been where the snags were. I’m going to pay a lot closer attention to the tactile clues from now on. Thank you!
