Refining Draggin’ Techniques in Bass Fishing
How to use the proven time method in bass fishing
Carolina Rigging is known as “Draggin’” in areas of Texas.Draggin’
often includes bass fishing in weedy reservoirs, which take place
during spring and fall, specifically the months of spring. Anglers
join to fish in water at temperatures between 50 degrees and 70
degrees, and will often fish in areas where clear water present
vegetation at the bottom of the lake.
Anglers
search for high water stages, which the depth is often five to fifteen
feet deep. In addition, anglers join to fish in water clarity at
1 foot, and fish all through the day.
Carolina rigging became popular, as well as Draggin’, when one man
rated top 100 in the BASSMASTER tournament at Lake Sam Rayburn,
Texas. Jim Nolan caught at this lake 6 ounces; 86 pounds of bass,
strictly using the lure anglers call the “Carolina-Rig Lizard.”
Today, anglers around the world enjoy the newest Carolina-Rig inventions.
The
latest Carolina-Rigs comprise bullet sinkers, which does not ride
the muzzle as that of Texas-Rig bait.
Carolina-Rigs
today produce better action, and the lures present slow anchors.
Rather
the lures or what anglers call presentations drop slowly onto the
bottom of the water. Carolina-Rigged lures base its cover of density
to consider burying in the bait.
In short, Carolina-Rigs received its name, since anglers discovered
that in the bait, undersized Draggin’ took less effort than that
of other strategies used in bass fishing.
Carolina-Rigged
lures were modified by Yelas. Yelas redesigned the lures so that
its one once bullet sinker would promote easy casting.
In addition, anglers are able to study the bottom of the waters
with fewer hassles. Moreover, anglers can now fish at depths far
surpassing the depths they could fish at one time.
In
summary, Carolina-Rigs will rest at the bottom of the lake even
during motion.
Carolina-Rigged lures is a choice presentation over the Texas-Rig,
yet some anglers still prefer Texas.
TIP: Great bass fishing areas include Potomac River, Sam Rayburn
Lake, Lake Guntersville, Lake Seminole, etc. Visit Georgia, Texas,
and Alabama, to discover the popular bass fishing spots.
Tip: Pre-spawning and Post-Spawning (spring) is the best time to
enjoy bass fishing.
According to novice anglers, Draggin’ in the fall should be conducted
at reservoirs.
Novice
anglers advise us to fish at the time weeds are drawn, i.e. milfoil,
hydrilla, etc, start to die and begin its spring growth. In short,
fishing at the weed lines is recommended.
TIP: Fishing in the springtime is best if you start before fish
begin spawning.
During this time, novice anglers recommend that you search for opposite
or the area where the water shapes a “V’ at the rear end of the
water, or the arms of the creek.
Anglers
tell us to search for Vs near weed lines since groups of fish gather
around this area. Furthermore, anglers are wise to fish in the late
hours of daylight.
Novice anglers tell us that fishing near shallow brush, or areas
where unwanted plants exist is best conducted in the morning.
Proceeding
morning it is recommended that you move to another area, specifically
near brushy areas.
The
sun often migrate bass to these areas.
TIP: Draggin’ during sleep hours is not optional, rather switch
lures to the “Floating Minnow Plug,” Tube Jig, or a light weighted
lizard.
The best time for bass fishing is when fall starts to draw down.
At
this time of year, shallows are exposed, as well as the structure
of weeds.
Anglers
tell us to search for areas where fall drawdown starts to reveal
shallow areas, which are bare and presents deep weeds in the district.
