What part of the Clinch do you fish?

Rod: 

Daiwa Samurai spinning 6'6" model


Reel: 

Daiwa Samurai spinning


Line: 

8-12 pound monofilament, depending on lure choice


Lures: 

Case Madtoms on ball jighead

Viper Designs Air Viper Softics 3pcs. worm on shaky or standup jighead

Heddon Spit'n Image

Heddon Super Spook Jr.

Yo-Zuri 4" Pin's Minnow (rainbow trout color)

Yum! Money Minnow 5'5" (rainbow trout color)

Imakatsu BT122 Twist (clear hasu color)

Yamamoto Senko or similar worms in any dark color

Zoom Salty Super Fluke in any natural-looking color

Reaction Innovations rEVOLUTION Shad and Bluegill


I don't care much for the little fish.  My aim when I hit the river is to catch bass and trout from two to five pounds.  These are the baits that make it possible for me.  For the soft swimbaits and jerkbaits, I will also tie a stinger treble hook and insert one point into the dorsal area to give me a better chance of hooking a fish, and more than half of the fish I land with these baits is hooked on the stinger.
