Wacky rig for bass fishing

T
Throbbit _Shane
Figured id do a report on here since is a slow time for fishing let alone bass fishing. Saturday I managed to catch the first bass out of FP's back yard pond. Soon after we had the boat in the water, I made Dave a bet about catching the first one from his pond, $5 to that person who could land one. I had been out fishing here at least a hand full of times already this year with out any luck and Dave had been out there even more because its in his back yard. Well I had some confidence in me since the day before I got my first two bass of the year, and they also happened to be my first ever swimbait fish. That was at a different pond but I knew if I could coax those fish into biting I could probably get some at FP's. I was throwing one of my go to worms, a melon pie yum dinger. Since there arnt many weeds right now I had it wacky rigged, love the action it has that way. Half way around fishing the pond I thought I had stuck a limb but after a head shake I knew what I had. Nice looking 3lber and fought good! Its been nice catching bass this early in the year :D :D

Sorry but that just cracked me up. WTF? Is that the real name for that rubber worm?

Yum is the brand, Dinger is the type of worm, Melon Pie would be the color :D

Me and TTFishon hit up a local bass hang out today. Not private this time. We each wound up catching a couple. Mine came on the same set up as above. Good day on the water especially after the sun came out!.

My daughter said that a melon pie yum dinger sounds something to say in an insult contest.
