When Senkos do not work and you can see the fish what would be a good thing to try? The water temp dropped back into the high 60s and the fish will goto the Senko but won't bite. I am new to Bass Fishing and am trying to learn.

I would try throwing a twin tail spider jig and practically bouncing it off the fishes head. Sometimes it will take 10-15 minutes but eventually they'll bite it. Make sure you throw something bulky for the bigger fish and it's alot easier if it's light enough you can see it as well.

Thank you for your response, do you have any special size, color or brand of that spider that you would suggest?

I prefer to throw the Booyah Bed Bug in the color Nest Robber, only because it is the closest to a hand tied I can find on the market. I will ussually throw this with a solid white twin tail grub trailer or white crawdad trailer made by Zoom. I use a little bit of scent (I prefer Smelly Jelly, Crawdaddy) on the trailer. The number one thing to remember is to be patient but not too patient. You want to spend 10-15 minutes on the fish and then move on to the next one weather it reacts or not. If your fishing competition you don't want to waste away the tournament hours playing games with one fish that may have allready been pounded anyways it can wind up costing you money by the end of the day.
