Finicky bass is what makes chasing them so interesting! Sometimes they'll hit a strip of white T-shirt (had it happen) - other times your only chance is explosives. Sometimes they win.

John,
Crab hatch a few years back - in a boat ( I know, blasphemy for me, I've since repented) cows (30-50 LBS) rolling on the crabs - won't touch a thing. My partner says I'll show em - puts out two umbrella rigs with multiple tubes. Troll right through the rolling cows. Both rods get hit. Fish peeling wire for 15 seconds. Drop each hook-up. Reel in umbrellas and the are literally destroyed - arms broken, hooks torn off. One hook comes back with a scale the size of a quarter on the point. Couldn't stand the power of multiple cows on each rig. So ChefChris - next time troll an umbrella through those 12 inchers!
