TechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonSummerStructurePointsEvery time I go to the Delta...all I can think about is having an 8+ pounder just crush a Strike King Rage Bug as I flip it into the endless cover out there....but not today. I did however have some pretty good success with a Texas Rig and a blue craw Senko in 10-15 feet depth on any distinct river turns or points. No big'ns to brag about....But there's always a way to find fish out there...

Largemouth Bass
TechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureReedsCaught some nice largemouth on frogs over the past few weeks. Need to get the frog as close to the reeds near points as possible. The best for me has been the Spro and Terminator brand popper. My new gen4 Revo SX handled the heavy braid and fish with no issues. Omnia has always offered the best pricing and quick delivery.
